So there are tons of funny cat articles out there but this  is by far one of the best I have ever read! Seriously, every single point they make is 100% true, though #'s 1, 22, and 23 particularly resonated with me and the antics of my two crazy felines. 

I highly encourage you to take a minute from your busy day to have a laugh and know you are not alone! And, I want to know which ones are your favorites and/or occur most often in your household!

I hope you enjoy and have a great rest of the evening/day depending on where you are!

2, 20, and 22 for me. The social activity in the bathroom is Mason jumping from the bathtub through the liner to attack me. Most. Fun. Game. Ever. To. Him. Only.

 I don't do FB normally so it's all new to me:-D  Thank you EB24, had a good laugh at these, and far too many ring true with this house.   I can't say all my favourites have happened thankfully- I know it's mean but I LoL every time I watch 15.....  
     No' 2, reminds me of my girls: they were VERY good at chewing things up, and  9 and  22 / 23 are for my Mouse.  He does like a good pamper and ablsolutely MUST know what goes on in the smallest room in the house. 
  Oh, and whatever the number of that one about running like cazy from room to room, though thankfully Mouse doesn't do it when I'm asleap (the girls did though).

I do the voices for all the cats and dogs.  To me they have a set personality voice. 

Puppy is the hyper daddys girl who could do no wrong.  Ben is the old wise man.  The cat that annoys my husband gets the annoying high school girl(but like oh my god why are you moving that box i like want to sit there.  many others but you guys understand :p

That was great :D with the new kittens guilty of 5. 7, 9,22, and 27. Riley is always reaching out to tell me to continue to pet him. Oh also the one of cats using every part of your body for hunting. The kittens hunt my legs and feet in bed. Taz loves to hide under the edge of the swivle rocker by the door and attack my feet when getting ready to leave for work.

I just got around to reading this, and immediately forwarded it to my fiancee. Guilty as charged on all counts.

That's fantastic. I am quite familiar with many of them. Right now there is a cat on my shoulder making it difficult for me to type. Lol! Thanks EB24

I love all the pictures on that site!  They're all funny and true but my favorites are 4,6,7,20,21 and last but not least 28.

My one cat likes to sharpen his (non-existent) claws on my keyboard. He actually looks like he's typing. Last time he did this he pulled up a google search for '0% APR credit cards'. Hmmm? lol

Credit cards, eh?  You'd better keep an eye on that guy!

  Clever boy!    
  Glad he lives with you and not me!  It would be interesting to see what his credit rating comes out as, have you had him since he was a kitten?  He might be on the run from debt collectors.

You guys are too funny! lol But yea, had him as a kitten. 

Actually MServant, he looks a lot like yours (the grey one), so you better be careful. lol He's liable to run up some debt.

Believe me, I've been slave to Mouse for 2 1/2 years and he's cost me a small fortune, even without figuring out how to access a credit card and shop on line.....   
  How can I put it, he was a bit accident prone when he was a young lad and used up a fair proportion of his 9 lives before he reached his 1st birthday.  Thankfully he sleeps more these days coz he's still just as daft when he's up and about:  he does the No' 15 trick with me, bouncing on to my head (I 'm  5' 8").  I don't think he sees children as enough of a challenge.....  :-D

Loving your avatar by the way.

Your cat is so cute curled up like that <3 - is he a Russian Blue? I've never met a grey cat who wasn't huggable trouble. lol Mine has cost me a fortune too, so I might need him to sign up for one of those 0% APR cards. I think he saw this week's vet bills coming. lol I wanted a grey cat though this time - he's my first - and I have to say that he is the most affectionate cat I've ever had. He sleeps curled up in my arms, head on my shoulder, paws across my chest, almost like he's embracing me. Right now he has his head on my other hand while I'm typing. I swear we're soul mates. 


My Avatar though - he has a habit of chewing on the tops of my oak chairs in the kitchen. It came out blurry because I had to snap the picture fast. lol Actually, he's chewed every rubber tip off my doorstops in the house too - at least the ones he could get to - those things that stick out from the bottom of the wall so that if you swing open the door too fast the doorknob won't put a hole through your wall. lol

He chews, he pants, he begs, he even growls - whenever I give him the plastic 'safety seal' ring off a mayonnaise jar, he'll walk around with it in his mouth 'play-growling'. Anybody ever hear of this? He'll also growl sometimes if I give him a little piece of something off my plate, while he's eating it, as if to tell my other cat to 'back off'. I told my husband that I'm waiting for him to bark next. lol My other cat growls too - while he's eating, but also once when he found a grasshopper in the house. It freaks me out that they both growl??? I've had a lot of cats over the years and never had one that growled, but now I have 2???
