Zeppy does some fairly interesting weird stuff
IE: while watching the birds out the window her jaw moves up and down in a jerky manner,allmost looks like she wants to talk

when she hops on my bed,and gets on her little blankie she does a 2 step with her front paws,we call it happy feet for lack of a better word

she plays fetch with me - i get a furry mouse and she want me to toss it acrosss the house so she can bring it back over and over and over

she purrs so loud,we can hear her across the room - the little Hemi kitty

she pretend's to bury her food buy scratching the linoliem floor ( keep digging)

let hear some of your kitty acts of weirdness

It sounds like you have a combination of all of our cats!
Rasha and Shadow both have been known to play fetch, and Chester's now starting to.
Shadow burrys her bowl
Chester does the "happy feet" all the time, we call it "kneeding", and one of my friends used to call it "pudding hugs"...although I don't know why.
Shadow used to, and chester does chew and play with our hair. Of course we try to stop them, the last thing we need is MORE hairballs.
Chester's weirdest thing is falling off of things. I know that its probably because he's a kitten, but he tries to roll onto his back and always ends up falling off of whatever he's on. Too excited I guess.
Natasha used to play on our chairs, she'd get up on my shoulders, and put her back legs on the top piece of our wooden chairs, then flip her whole body around, balancing purely on her back paws and try to catch her tail through the bars on the back of the chair.
Rasha (for a short period of time) also would get up in the "V" shape that a door makes and sit on the top of the door so he could jump on us as we walked by. That was a little eventful!

All my cats do odd things.

For example, as I type this (one handed, btw), Simon has decided to give me a manicure.

Best-

Beau's wierd thing is that he "digs" with his paws on either side of the water bowl before drinking, as if he had to dig the water up out of the ground. Then, when he drinks, he dips his paw in the water and licks it off several times before settling down to drink by lapping up the water. I never saw another cat go through such a ritual when drinking.

My little CJ also rolls off everything. lol I guess he's not paying attention to where he is and rolls over on his back and then off whatever he is on. lol

Now he has mastered the art of climbing on top of things. *sigh*
I have to constantly take him down off the top of the couch, tables, shelves, etc as he likes to dive off of them.

He is becoming quite the dare devil. :p

The funny thing is what we consider weird or quirky behavior is actually fairly common amongst cats... That's why we all identify with the similarities in their behavior... The weirdest thing that I've seen Malakai do is sigh.. When we play with each other and/or he just gets frustrated, he lets out a sigh... it's like he's huffing to let me know he's frustrated
Does anyone else's cat do that?? He's also quite persistent but I dont think that's necessarily weird for a cat... It's just something that I'm not quite used to being that he's the only cat that I've had since such a young age... It's intriguing to watch him grow up...

Daisy does the paw dipping & drinking thing! She has many weird behaviours: she likes to sleep in between the curtain and the curtain lining, she runs around the house yowling, she howls at the walls in the kitchen, she is six years old but acts six weeks old ALL THE TIME!

Milly's only peculiarity is her extreme sociability. She will insist on being greeted by any visitors, and enjoys being hugged and kissed by small children. If a visitor ignores her she leaps about, trashing the place.

My old cat Winnie used to play 'fetch' with small toys, but she grew out of that at about three yrs old.
