Puff has taken it upon himself to rearrange my throw rug. I put it down in the kitchen in front of the stove because honestly I had every intention of spot cleaning it. But I just haven't gotten up the energy to do it yet. Well Mr. Puff has decided that it's fun to race through the house and get under it. I'll put it back the way it was several times a day. And when I get up in the morning it's back to a messed up pile of rug.


I swear he does it to irritate me. Expecially when he does it while I'm cooking!

Naw, he's not trying to irritate you!! He's having fun!!
I have several and have to staighten them up every day. That is,after I have to check underneath for all the toys,suckers,or any other do-dad they decide to hide under there!

Boo loves to be pulled around the house on a rug. She will sit on the end of a 4 ft rug I have and take her little claws and pull it toward her,wanting me to pull the other end!
Of course,I usually do! It's hilarious!!

LOL, my mom's Siamese goes nuts with newspaper...as on hiding under it. It's hilarious because I swear he things I can't see him while his butt is sticking out from under the paper.
He will move around until the paper is pretty much disassembled in single pags.

There's no place like home
Mine do that all the time. Look at it on the positive side. It's an opportunity for you to get exercise by bending down and straightening it 15 times a day! You can cut out a minute of your exercise routine each day!!


Hey - I lost 50 pounds when we adopted the puppies through "baby gate olympics"!

We have a rug in the kitchen and Sonic races onto it, grabs the edge, and rolls over wrapped inside it bunny-kicking it. That rug is never where it should be

We have a rug by the front door to wipe shoes on and whatnot... I don't think it's been in the right place since we got our kittens. They're always playing on or under it. XD
