The Cat Thread

Recent changes in behaviour from cat.

I get subjected to now daily licking of hands.
This is a fairly recent change, and mildly pleasant if you call being rubbed with wet sandpaper pleasant.

1) Is cat tasting me and plotting to murder and eat me.

2) Is cat showing affection and attempting to clean me........ Mrs 853superfly dosen't get this treatment, and also dosen't get woken up by cat sat on chest purring loudly at 5 am.

Maybe you taste of salty goodness.

I don't mean to piss on your cocoa pops but I've read that grooming others is a sign of dominance and superiority.

^you'll need to assert your dominance by sitting on the cat and grooming it.

Yeah as the cat is dominant...my two six month are starting to really piss me off/worry me brother and sister and the girl cat is skin, bones and fluff. While the boy is bigger but both are fussy eaters. Mainly whiskas and felix. The higher meat content foods such as royal canin, purina pro and Iams. Both wont eat steamed chicken or fish but the boy eats prawns. I'm worried that the smaller girl cat is undernourished. What can I do to make her eat?

Separate bowls spread apart?

In which case Higgs is the dominant partner of my feet.

What is it with cats and feet or knees, both mine happily for them sleep on my feet or knees. They don't sit on my wife like that just me and normally both at the same time. Even if I roll over they will climb back up and sit on my legs.

Strange things

I think they like the crack. One of ours will only sleep directly in the middle of the two sofa cushions also. Feet and knees are also far enough away from our smelly scary faces.

my daily ritual....id love to know how he manages to leave it all so perfectly intact and clean. Its for this reason that he is locked away each night in the back sitting room. You don't need this shit on the floor of the landing when your kids or wife wake up to go to the toilet in the night..

Am trying the different rooms for feeding.

4 times, black kitty came 4 times this afternoon!!! HE HAS DECLARED WAR WITH ME AND PATCH!!!

Still here :)
so it's 50/50 on cat is plotting to eat my face while i sleep or is just happy.

Did have another late night present session, little Maus bled a bit before i could rescue him....... set him free out the back door and he was gone in the morning (no corpse on doorstep)
KillMauski cat has been busy the last week rounding up mice that are happy outside and bringing them inside.

His owners are really looing after him well.

Pee pee pee pee. Instant results

Cat is thinking.. Seat is too high

@lynx, @anthonyj, Might have to try the pee method...

I was in the garden this morning just checking for any cat shit, and black kitty's owners opened their door and we had a chat about cats and they asked me if their cat has been trying to get inside my flat to which I said yes, every single night and guess what? They found it very funny and didn't see cats fighting for tuff right outside my back door is an issue.

I might start shitting outside their back door see how they like it.

Did the water pistol make any difference? We use water to defend our citadel when the big bully male cat stands guard outside our cat's (microchip) cat flap. He legs it each time and has definitely backed off over recent weeks. I haven't crossed paths with his owners yet but if I do I'll let them know I'm squirting water at their moggy just so they know it's friendly fire.

When our own cat was annoying a neighbour by sitting on her window sill during summer months I went round with a water squirter for them to use. Our mog definitely doesn't hang out there as much anymore.

I think you just have to be consistent so that the cat in question understands that that particular territory = a wet face.

Failing that... frozen sausages in a Nerf gun.

Does the neighbour have a cat?

Group shit out?

Those people are arseholes. Kitty is trying to escape to somewhere where kitty sees love.

You mean the neighbour I gave the squirter to? No they don't. Why?

I once gave our neighbours cat a blast of air from a Camelbak bottle when it was clawing our furniture, which startled him and he ran off, every time he did it after I showed him the bottle and he moved away, he hated that thing.
