One of my male cats is obsessed with human food, he doesn't eat wet cat food at all except the odd lick of the gravy, just sticks to his dry - but if you have anything he wants he will position himself in glare mode and sit there blinking at you but he only opens his eyes about 2 millimeters, I dunno what he thinks he's doing - psychic vibes?! He just looks all squinty.
Loves meat, but his favourite is breadsticks, he swings off the door handle in the kitchen when Im not around to break in, opens the cupboards and helps himself - I know he's done it before I see the mess because he's looking at me from 2 millimeter slits. Guilty & hungry face!0 -
Percy stole my ice cream (my own fault for leaving it unguarded for 2 seconds). I know it was him as the spoon got stuck on the magnet on his collar and he came in the room dragging it with him. :rotfl:
He is also obsessed with one particular pair of my gloves. None of the others get a second glance but he will spend hours running around with this one pair. I often find them hidden in odd places around the house, when he finally gets bored of running up and down stairs with them.0 -
Damian my male black long haired moggy - is known as the curiosity explorer. Shall never forget the day a BT engineer went up into our main loft & he had followed the bloke up the ladder(not a loft one) to see where bloke was going. The cat just behind him rubbing up against the blokes leg & he shouted down did U know you have a cat living in your loft! Is it a black one? Yes. Damian I called and his furry face appears at loft hatch, then down the ladder he comes. No matter what cupboard/drawer/door U open, if he sees it he has to go in it. He likes carrier bags & boxes & will play footy with any old bit of stuff lying around. Usually during the night. I see this as I need to take med's through the night. He'll be 9 in March.0

My two monsters (giant cat and tiny dog) have figured out how to open the fridge working as a team - hysterical to watch as the dog climbs up the cat then swings on the door until it opens.
I felt like a very horrible woman whilst gaffer taping the fridge door shut

I would really hate to have to explain that to visitors - some kind of extreme dieting or cruelty to children comes to mind :rotfl:That sounds like a classic case of premature extrapolation.

Actually reading some of these stories has reminded me that one of my cats wasn't so boring in her younger day.
Suzy is, and always has been, greedy. When she was younger she was very agile and worked out which cupboard the cat biscuits were kept in and worked out how to open the cupboard, tip the box over at the right angle so all the biscuits scattered everywhere for her to hoover up! I'd come home from work to find carnage in the kitchen and muddy paw prints all over the surfaces and on the cupboard door whilst she sat by her food bowl looking like butter wouldn't melt and trying to pretend it wasn't her! I then got a special child lock on the cupboard door and I'd wake in the night to hear the lock rattling! She's now too old and lazy to be bothered with moving much now but I do occasionally find a shredded plastic bag on the kitchen floor which she has managed to find in a floor level cupboard!Debt 30k in 2008.:eek::o Cleared all my debt in 2013 and loving being debt free

I remember - when I was a tot, some 25ish years ago - My nan picking me up from preschool. She had a soft, lazy, King Charles called Joey.
Predictably, Nan'd walk to school with my pram - Joey would be riding in it like a little Queen.
She'd pick me up, and Jody and I would play for a little while at the park. Then I'd hop in the pram for the ride home...
...Then Jody would hop into my lap for the ride home :rotfl:That sounds like a classic case of premature extrapolation.
