Quirky traits unique to your kitty

I'm sure all kitties have something a little different and unique just to them...my Charli has two little things, that she's had since she came to us at 6 weeks.  One is, she gets a "winky" left eye when tired.  You know she needs to dose, when her left eye begins to droop and gets "winky"...it's been this way since day one.  The other is, she has a little squeak to her nose.  I first noticed it when she was with us, when she was sleeping soundly and dreaming, she would get a little squeak in the nose.  Then if she was sniffing something, like approaching her food, she would get the squeak.  She's going to be 9 months on the 14th of November, and she still has the little "squeak"... 

What's your kitty's little unique quirk?

Awww, Charli has very cute quirks!

Sakura likes to sit in the shower, especially after someone has just used it. I hear that torties/torbies/calicos like water but who knows why? Charvone grunts in frustration sometimes, like if he wants to hop on my lap but can't because I am sitting with my knees up instead of flat or cross-legged. It almost sounds like a toddler pouting or right before a temper tantrum is thrown.

Some not-so-cute quirks: Charvone also randomly sits with his butt in the air to beg for butt-pats, looking like a female cat in heat when he is actually a neutered male or like he is going to start twerking. Sakura nips at Charvone like a dog to initiate play-fighting sometimes. I think this comes from her from living with dogs with her previous family.

Throwing in my two cents

Twilight's weirdest quirk is that she "washes her paws" in the water bowl she drinks from. Seeing as we kept her and Connie in my parents' bathroom for a year or two, and that's where she developed the quirk, I like to think she saw the silly hoomans do it and gave it a whirl. The water bowl (a model with a jug that refills it automatically when it's drunk from) basically needs to be washed so often the jug is useless.

My Phoebe likes to site on the bathroom counter next to the sink and watch me or my wife brush our teeth.  She's particularly interested in the peppermint toothpaste, and is always trying to grab our brushes with her paws.  We have to keep the toothpaste in a closed drawer!   We look forward to this little ritual every morning!

Mogli has a quirky behavior we just can't figure out. My husband keeps a few pairs of thermal socks in the bottom of his wardrobe. Just about every day, Mogli opens the sliding door, pulls the socks out and places them on the floor in front of the wardrobe. Some days I put the socks back in the wardrobe two or three times, only to have Mogli go back and do it again. He leaves other items alone.

The socks could be put elsewhere, of course, but Mogli seems to have so much fun doing it that we've left them there. Why does he think the socks should be on the floor?

Arya my 16 week old kitten (bicolor, white underbelly with gray on top, and a paw print gray spot on belly) will jump on the toilet after someone has ahem, done their business, and sit there and try to figure out the flushing mechanism.  She will paw at the flusher for 5 minutes but can't seem to push it down (it's pretty hard without an opposable thumb ).  She also loves to sit in the tub after I take a shower and inspect the faucets - I call her my bathroom inspector cat!  She paws the area around BOTH food/water bowls as if marking her territory.  Unfortunately my other kitten learned this from her and now he does it too!

She will also bat at her wet food like it is prey and then eat it when she's successfully gotten a piece onto the floor.  I guess she likes to pretend that it's "prey-like" food!

Balerion, my 7 week old kitten (black with silver tiger stripes) has this adorable little bunny-like hop when he runs.  He likes to sleep under the toilet on our rug of all places.  And his "safe spot" is right in between two sets of pillows on a queen bed like --->

( pillows) BALERION (pillows)

Even when the pillows are super close together, he squeezes in!

Balerion will also bat at my face as if I am a giant kitten and we are going to play or something; kinda adorable but worrisome with his little claws!  He makes little grunting sounds when he is trying to get his confidence up to do something, like move napping spots or get up from a nap! So cute. 

If I "meeeeeeowwww" at him he perks up and comes up to my face and asks to be groomed/kissed.   And when he naps, his little head falls back SOOOO far away from his body, it's very comical.  I dunno how he sleeps that way! It looks like his neck is double jointed when he's sleeping like that.  It's hard to describe, sorry, you probably have to be there to understand how weird his head appears when he conks out.  It looks like it's partially unscrewed from his body and fell backwards.

Sylvia Rose "calls" my roommate. She sits by her bedroom door and meows very sweetly for a few minutes. She'll then sit still and listen and if she doesn't hear any movement she'll spit, smack the door, and walk away!

Even though my kitty is clawless against her will, she still scratches, especially when the shade is down, she scratches the shade so I will get up and open it, her bird feeder is out that window. I am petrified for her because this action will eventually cause her bone to protrude through her paw pads from wear and tear.

According to professionals...and if anyone wants the link, let me know somehow.

When Lucky is happy-excited, he bounds & races up & down a @60 foot  stretch of wood laminate floors we have, hall, kitchen, fam room.   Like when he knows I'm cooking dinner. Sounds like a human in boots!  My husband calls him our pony.

my snick loves to snuggle under the covers with me in bed at night. i'm a side sleeper, and snick's favorite spot is under the covers behind my knees. something she does that's irresistibly cute to me (and i giggle every time she does it) is when she's climbing over my legs she'll pause with her front legs behind my legs and her back legs in front of my legs with her tummy resting on my legs. it's snick's tummy resting on my legs that is so very sweet to me.

One of my cats, Sahara, who's almost two will stand up to kiss me - on the mouth - if I bend down to stroke her. I have no idea where she learned to do this though, as she was born in my house! 

Wolf always begs for banana bread, despite not liking it. Most meatless foods he ignores entirely but for some reason he always begs for the banana bread. I tried giving him a tiny amount once - wouldn't eat it! But came right back to beg for more!

I have a cat named DevilCat. When he first came, he made life miserable for the others. He has many quirks (idiosyncrasies), one of the more amusing of which is that he always paws ritualistically, with his right paw, at the wall of the shower stall next to his water pan before drinking. He seems to think the pawing is somehow necessary as a preparatory measure. It's as if he's digging for water. When he's finished he usually comes and tells me so I know to turn the light off in the bathroom. He demands fresh water at all times. I keep a shower wand, on the end of a long hose, in the pan so I can easily fulfill his request. My cats are all spoiled rotten.

My big boy Oscar likes to sleep touching your nose haha. He curls up next to you on the bed or on top of you on the couch and stretches his arm out until he boops your nose.... and then falls asleep that way! Some may think it's gross with litterbox feet, but I think it's precious lol <3
