    Cat's really make me laugh with their funny habits. What got into his head to do that eh?!!
    Yeah he makes us laugh too, god knows why he thought to go under there, and how he ripped all the lining, its quite a big hole. He also loves a bag, any type, mainly my handbag, he'll get right in chuck my things out and go to sleep, yet the nice cosy bed I bought him has never been used!

    Know that email that goes around occasionally about "The Rules" - where women are never allowed to let their men in on what The Rules actually are... I think there's a cat version where they're not allowed to let humans know what they're up to when they do this stuff.

    I remember one winter when my heating packed up, so all I had was a gas fire in the lounge - came back in from the kitchen one evening, to find the cat had objected to the temperature in the lounge, got the fireside rug and wrapped herself up in it in front of the fire with just her head sticking out of one end and tail out of the other like some kind of kitty swiss roll. Wish I'd taken a picture!

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:LOL!!! Thanks for all the funny stories folks...

    Heard next door's dog barking like a thing possessed today, I looked out of the window to see my cheeky little kitty-kins sitting 6" away from him with a chain link fence between them. She was chirping (or giggling) really loudly because she has finally worked out how to get in and out of the flat YAY!

    I've just got to get the cat fitted then she'll be giving that poor old dog a run for his money :D

    My mums cat, Boo Boo snores. Didnt believe her until i stopped over one night to be woken by him in the middle of the night. What a racket it was?
    My cat Timmy when he was alive seemed to catch is breath, kinda have an athsma attack type thing. Mind you when was let in and charge through/round the place to would wind up at the front door looking as if he was going to cry as if id told him off. mind you he liked hanging onto my shoulder almost no matter what i did, and if i didnt let him the looks i got off him if we were all sat in the living room?
  • One of my 2, Chloe snores and makes various snuffling noises. Mentioned it to the vet and he said it was probably just the way she was made :)
  • My cat Ginger has a few quirks while sleeping:
    snoring - various snore levels, heavy breathing - along with the mouth open, mouth shut - but tip of tongue sticking out.

    Plus, sometimes it looks like he's sleeping with one eye open. But, has his, what I call his third/3rd eyelid over his eye, but normal eyelid is still open - but in total dreamland. I call it his evil, but cute look. :D

    Mine's also been known to get under the duvet between me and hubby and lie with her head on the pillow as well - didn't quite get the "pet not human" memo did that one.

    Hello again
    She still wont go out and doesn't seem interested, so I've decided to keep her tray out and wait until it's warmer. I don't want to stress her about it.

    We had a kitten who preferred being indoors with people she would go out as we had a cat flap. Unfortunately she was hit by car. Don't know why she went as far as she did as she never really left the garden.

    Maybe got chased by another cat and not being as road smart got her self hit.

    Our other cat who we got before her is semi feral anti social !!!!!! and only comes in when the weather is crap.

    Pepper (2 year old half-Siamese calico cat) snores a good 'un, she's like me, snuffles through her mouth. She can be very 'talky' depending on her mood too. She yowls at funny things too.

    I do it all because I'm scared.

    Yes, one of ours does. She's a moggy but rather large so not sure if her size is anything to do with it...
