1. Make you feel guilty by constantly rubbing against your legs when your on the pc?

2. Give you LOTS of love til' you feed them, then say "what the hell do you want?" when you go to them for attention?

3. Right after you've cleaned your entire home, they race thru it at 200mph & knock stuff over?

4. If you try to sleep in they stand on or next to you purring & meowing or race over you repeatedly til' you finally get up to feed them?

5. If your doing bills they absolutely have to lay ON TOP OF your checkbook at that very moment.

Please feel free to continue. I'm just really curious as to other personality traits your cats exhibit.

1. Always! Whenever I'm on the computer Peppurr rubs up to my legs. He'll go to sleep on top of the moniter!

2. Yes! Every morning Hercules and Peppurr seem extremely lovey! They give kisses :tounge2: and purr. When I get up they lead me to the kitchen and show me their empty food bowl! Cats!

3. In fact, Peppurr, Rascal and Hercules are doing that right now! They are running around chasing each other! Peppurr climbs up the opening to the living room!

4. Like I said, Yes they always do that!

5. I don't have to worry about bills yet. I'm 17 and live with my parents!

They also always have to lie on the clean laundry!

And why do the cats have to knock the towels onto the floor, lie on them, someone else picks them up and that leaves me with a furry face when I dry myself on them! Only got caught the once and I'm a lot more careful with the towels now!!!!

Since I got this new desk chair, Rowdy sits on the back and plays with my hair.

When Bill is trying to pay the monthly bills, Rowdy flops down on top of them and attacks his pen. If he's trying to log debits into his checkbook, he has to hang onto the receipts because she will grab them and run.

Opie is really mellow and, never gets into anything.

We change the linens, on our bed, every Sunday and, every time, we end up making Rowdy up in the bed. As soon as the old sheets are off, she jumps into the middle and flops. We move her and get the bottom sheet on and she hops back up. At this point, we just put the top sheet and comforter on top of her. Yesterday, she went one better: as I was putting on clean pillowcases, she grabbed the bottom edge and hung on. Opie observed, from the dresser and, as soon as the bed was made, HE curled up an Bill's pillows and stayed there until we went to bed.

my kitten Leo does:

1) chases the mouse curser on my computer screen, then when he gets tired he goes to sleep in the cubby we built for him right near the computer desk so he can be close!

2)I tutor science students, and ofcourse leo jumps on the table and sits right in the middle of the text book! we laugh everytime!

3)purrs, rubs and snuggles every morning, makes me want to stay in bed longer just to enjoy his affection, once I get out he follows me and drinks water from the bathtub! Then I go to work, and my husband who starts later, tells me he goes back to our bed for more purring and snuggles with him! Gotta love cats!

4)he lies and sleep on the clean laundry! Even pounces on it!

5)begs for people food, and yes also goes to the litter box right after I clean it! I thought there was something weird with him! Sometimes he goes while I am in the middle of cleaning still! Cats are usually want privacy, not this little guy! and I also clean it 2-3 times daily!

Piper does:
1)make these mrr sounds while she leads me to her empty bowl of food in the morning, but she is good, she won't do it until I sit up from lying down in bed!

Lie on top of the TV with a tail hanging down right in the middle of the screen.

Chew the spine of the book you have borrowed.

Play with the pen when you are trying to complete a job application in your best handwritting.

Try and climb into visitor's bags.

Seek out black clothes to deposit as many white hairs as possible.

Scoop litter all over the floor just after you have finished hovering and sweeping.

Got to love 'em

Ninners will chew up any important document coming from the fax machine.
Josephine will always walk in front of you in the middle of the night trying to trip you.
Auxana never fails to be the first one to pooh in a litter box you've just cleaned.

Rowdy is, always right there, when I clean the litter boxes. When I dump them, she will pee in it, before I get the fresh litter poured in.

She also likes to nap on top of the TV, with her tail hanging down.

In addition to all of the above, my cats think my abdomen is a launching pad, and use it when I'm napping on my back to jump to the top of the couch- a rude awakening, to say the least!

Years ago, when I had indoor-outdoor cats, they would cry at the door to go outside-in the middle of winter. Then they would just stand there, as I held the door open, while they decided whether or not it was too cold. I couldn't try to rush the decision either, because if I closed the door, they would immediately repeat the procedure. These decisions take time, you know!

Ash does all those things as well.....but the very best ( that I love....NOT) is when i'm trying to sleep and he jumps up from the floor or the end of the bed and attacks your head, full speed ahead.


Then runs away at 200Kilometers an hour


Don´t u just love them

Silas always does his business when a bunch of people are right there. And then doesn't cover it!! So I have to cover it for him. But he only does it when people are over. He sure puts on a stinky show for them!


He will also cry and scratch at the bathroom door if i don't let him come in with me. Then he jumps on the sink and looks back and forth from the faucet to me until i turn it on. lol

He also jumps on the bed everymorning when the alarm goes off and lays on my chest and purrs up a storm. It really makes me want to stay in bed!!

Alf and Ronnie are just the same.
But if they decide the weather isn't up to scratch, then they look at me expecting me to change it - I am NOT the weather goddess!

And when they come home, they have to stand on me with cold, dirty paws and tell me all about what they have been up to outside. Thank-you, cats, very interesting.

Chuck! #2 and #5 on your list especially!!! Merlin is so very loving when his food bowl is empty, after that, it just depends on HIS mood!
And when I pay bills.....that is when he likes to lay on top of them and sprawl out!

Oh, you named off some that I forgot about. Jeanie, I can't tell you how many scratches I've gotten from being used as a launching pad. ASnd the litter box thing....what is it w/ clean boxes that the HAVE to soil it up IMMEDIATELY!!! Oh, you do gotta love them.

Jeanie reminded me of something: As IO go out the door (to work or wherever) I never leave w/o saying I love you & be good & Tiger, don't beat up big bro and when I finally get home I ask how thier day was (My friends actually ask:"Do you think they'll actually answer?"), and they actually do answer in thier own sweet way (along with "Its about time, were hungry"..
