Do your cats greet you?

jaffacake · Mar 14, 2007

By that I mean, When you come home is your cat sat at the door waiting?

I ask because when I get in from work I`ve learn`t to open the door really slowly because Kitty is usually sat there waiting.
He only really does it on week days when he knows I get back at 3pm.

They aren't sitting there waiting, but they do come running from the bedroom where they are usually sleeping when I open the door

oh yes. raven is always at the door. most of the time nabu is. and stimpy is usually on his way. i call them my "welcoming committee."

it's good to feel appreciated.

Sadie is always at the door waiting for me.

katiemae1277 · Mar 14, 2007

yup! well at least most of them are, Pandora, Antigone, Gaia, Hades are usually right there, I figure they sleep in the living room

and then right quickly appears Cybele, Sapphire, Poseidon and Demeter. Medusa never comes out and Nemesis rarely does either

oh, i knew I'd forget some one

When I pull into the driveway at 5:30 pm, Cleo is sitting in the cat tree and waiting for me in the window closest to the garage. It's so cute because when I walk past the window to go to the mailbox, she meows at me and paws at the window! She then jumps down from the cat tree and meets me at the back door when I come into the house.

urbantigers · Mar 14, 2007

They're always in the hallway or just coming out of the living room. Jaffa usually sits in the kitchen window looking out for me when I get home from work, and they hear me coming and the sound of the key in the door so are ready and waiting for cuddles and a discussion about how our respective days have been as soon as I get indoors.

jean-ji · Mar 14, 2007

Sam is always waiting at the back door with his front paws on the window part of the door, standing on his back legs, looking for me, like a dog. What a good boy he is. I notice he does this with my DH, and when he hears the car pulling in, he runs down the stairs and to the door. He does this to the mailman in warm weather with the screen door, he runs up and puts his paws up to look out and greet him. Our little ambassabdor.

heyu gets in the window about 10 min before i get home.
once she see me get out of the truck , she run to the back door, waits for me to open it, they YEOW!!!!!!! at me for about 5..

deelovely79 · Mar 14, 2007

When I have the girls confined to a bedroom or the bathroom they are always right at the door. Tara in particular sits with her back to the door so that her whole tail is out in the hallway (I thinks she wants me know she is right there). Now if I leave Princess Frenchie in the living room, she's such a scary cat that she stays in the back of the living room and watches the door and me until I approach her. Tara's also afraid of the front door (she usually growls when she hears other people leave their apartments) but since she knows I'm the only one opening the door she is right there waiting (and trying to escape).

Eppie does this, too!

And the second she sees me she starts pawing at the window and then runs to the front door. I hear her meowing even before I put the key in the lock

. Whenever I come in, I have to give Eppie a "big stretch" (she gets on her hind legs, I put my hands under her front legs, and she reaches up real high). The come the headbutts

. All the while, Cosette is waiting patiently for her turn. When I'm done with Eppie, then I have to meet Cosette by the foodbowl, where I pet her as she eats and purrs like crazy (yup, she still does that!).

wesley's mom · Mar 14, 2007

Wesley usually runs down the stairs (from sleeping on our bed) when we come home. He'll start to purr really loudly when we pet him and sometimes gives us a meow when we come in.

sicycat · Mar 14, 2007

Zoey always comes running when I walk in. She is always right there to greet me and if she's not I get nervous

Saki will usually saunter in a couple minutes later

margecat · Mar 14, 2007

Usually, at least 5-9 of them are at the front door when I come home (funny, they don't wait for hubby!). Sometimes, I see 3 or 4 at the bay window, watching for me. BJ always meows, then stands on his hind legs in order to hug me--usually a couple of times (how can you resist a cat who does this?!!?). He's such a sweetie--he hugs on command, too! Gotta love 'em all!

reesespbc · Mar 14, 2007

Reeses usually sits in front of the door when we come home. Some days she's in the way and we wind up hitting her with the door, so we've learned to open slowly

Then when we come in she meows, does her usual back leg stretch to prepare us that she's going to flop onto her side so we can pet her

jaffacake · Mar 15, 2007

Great stories guys!

epona · Mar 15, 2007

When I get up in the morning, yes, Radar sleeps in the sitting room and when I first go in I get the best greeting ever, he follows me like a little dog over to the sofa and as soon as I am sat down he jumps to my chest, headbuts me in the face, and then rolls around in my arms purring and dribbling. I love that cat!

Sonic is more interested in running around and attacking the carpet than he is with welcoming us home!

same with my boys!

eilcon · Mar 15, 2007

Gracie's always at the front door waiting for me when get home. I can usually hear her "yelling" at me inpatiently to get inside.

Katie meets me at the top of the front stair. Pete doesn't appear until I say "Where's Big Pete?" in a deep voice. Then he comes running. What a goof.

I always have to go looking for Claire. She's almost always asleep under one of the chairs in the living room, so I reach under their and give her a few scritches. She emerges when she's ready, then gets some more loving.
