  • Haha! Our cat is just as moody!! If he doesn't get his own way, he sleeps in his "sulking cupboard" which is basically our clothes cupboards. He also lies on the shoes which must be really uncomfortable?!

    Ha! Sulking cupboard :rotfl: He probably wants to be uncomfortable just so he can sulk more! I do that when Im annoyed- I purposley wind myself up more for some unbeknown reason... perhaps me and you cat have the same mentality! :D

    Another favourite place to go when mine is annoyed is on the exercise bike, ironically! :D

  • Lol! I call my 2 ''the boys'' aswell. Mine will not sleep on OH's pillow. Only mine. He's very fussy!! And the other will only sleep at the bottom. Creatures of habit!

  • omg - are you two me in disguise? i treat the cat like a child. I buy him xmas presents, make sure when I go shopping that I get a treat for him. I would love him to sleep on the pillow but he doesn't do it...yet...he sleeps on my legs if I am lucky or next to me on the side of the bed.

  • :rotfl: It is scary how much alike some of us are!

    I think people must think Im nuts when I treat the cats like children! :D At least now I know Im not the only one.
    :T

    I buy mine seperate christmas presents and wrap them up. They sniff the paper then me and OH take it in turns to open them for them, at which points they go hyper cos they have a new toy!

    Im always browsing the treat aisles in asda or tescos too! Im gonna earn the name ''crazy cat lady'' before long. :o But I dont care! :p
