Benson is so in love with himself in the mirror that he wakes us up every morning. If we keep the bedroom door open he starts at 2am until we give up and kick him out. But then we have to listen to him body slam into the bedroom door to get back in. He is a pain!

I just don't get the fascination! How in the world can I make him stop!!!! No really it isn't funny anymore!

Hang something over the mirror at night...like fabric or a blanket. That's what I do!

Or get him his own mirror that is in the other room, and he can admire himself all night long.

If I try to lock the cats outta the bedroom they flip out banging on the door howling the whole nine yards. lol... I have a 4 inch square of carpeting Hercules has clawed and scratched up to the point the bare floor is showing from him trying to get back into the room..This was all done in about 1 hr span of time.

We have a mirror in the entry way to our house over a commode that Persi has just recently discovered. We had quite a few guests over to our house Sunday and Persi went into the same routine you are talking about. Everybody in the living room was rolling on the floor in laughter at his antics. He had never acted like this before, I guess he just wanted to be the center of attraction.

Hey - it is hard work being that handsome. Always have to check that you are still as gorgeous as you were 5 minutes ago!

It's just too funny! Actually it scares me at times cause my first cat Mittens used to do this with a full length mirror that we didn't hang yet. He thought there was a cat behind the mirror and he broke it trying to get the other kitty.

The other thing he does is he sits on the dining room table and meows at the wall joint with the neighbor. He's nuts I tell ya!
