    When you give up your pillows as they have laid claim to them and then feel guilty for taking the pillows back when they move off of them

    When you're sitting wrapped up in a blanket so you can leave the back door open as he hasn't got the hang of coming back through the catflap.

    When you buy a completely different food for just 1 of our cats because she refuses to eat what the others have.

    Not only this but you have to feed her away from the others and use HER bowl just to get her to eat

    Get the wrong bowl and my God do you know about it

    When they look at you when you're sitting on the sofa and you get up so they can sit in their favourite spot.

    When it's 3am, you are naked and chasing a bat around the bedroom with a net curtain trying to guide it out a window because Kitty thought you needed the exercise.

    Or it's 5am, and you and OH have the king-sized bed on it's end trying to catch a HAMSTER (Chinese, apparently). Later to find yourself at Pet At Home rehoming section trying to convince them that the hamster you don't want was bought in through the cat flap by the cat. I'm sure they didn't believe me. I didn't believe me!
    Some days you're the dog..... most days you're the tree! :D

    When the cats get fed two breakfasts before you have even had one
    When you get off a chair because the cat is glaring at you (they want a pre warmed seat)
    When you spend more time in the supermarket choosing their food than yours.
    And when you put subtitles on the tv as the volume is too loud (they pull faces I swear!)
    Find out who you are and do that on purpose (thanks to Owain Wyn Jones quoting Dolly Parton)
