OMG!! DEFINITELY!! And if you think I'm not telling the truth, ask my DH--he will go on FOREVER, about how I spoil those little kitties (my own, and the 35 or so, Feral Kitties I feed at the grainmill at the edge of our town!
)
........Ohhhhhhhhhhhh....I do so love my kitties!

$900 in cat hutches and scratching posts. $500 in cat beds. At least $300 in various cat toys. $150 in water fountains, trying to find one that will last longer than three weeks. A weekly PetsMart bill that ranges from $50 to $150. Annual vet bills from $500 to $1,000. Life with four wonderful cats: Priceless!

Mine are totally spoiled! Cat trees, a special cat quarantine room, cardboard boxes in every room, holes cut in the bottom of entry doors into certain rooms so they can access if the door's shut...

also whenever I bake chicken & fish I ALWAYS make an extra (unseasoned) piece for the kits. I let it cool & chop it up and watch the feeding frenzy.

My cats have free run of my house, too.. .Snickers has a special pasta bowl on the countertop that stays empty, just for him... K.C. has made a bed into one of my pillows on my bed... there's nowhere they aren't allowed to go or be.

I spoil mine as much as they let me! Mirah is the most spoiled... she gets to sleep in our lap, she gnaws on us.... she's SO spoiled. Then Billy... he comes up all the time for lovins. Of course he always gets them. But, he is a trouble maker, too!
CJ and Annie don't let you spoil them much... they're one of those DON'T HOLD ME kinda cats... but I still do it, and spoil them when I can!

Giving them a massage during their bath, with warm water and catnip bubbles?

Nah, they're not spoiled at all.
plus
Not making them get up so you can make your bed

Feeding them first before people get to eat

knowing what there meow's mean


cleaning there room more then the rest of the house

Alway's buying them stuff they already have dozens of

Opening more then 1 kind of food, when they don't eat it, at the same time saying don't you like that one


Sitting wherever you can because there sretched out in your chair


All I can say it's a good thing they can't ask for stuff (really) because I can see mine in a BMW driving and

We "puff" up the sheets as they go on so Mika can play under them. It takes an hour to fix the bed, but it's better entertainment than TV!

What? Doesn't everyone do that? I thought it was common courtesy to feed the SCREAMING before yourself

Like, I wanted to see what you were doing in here, but now that you've started the shower let me the @%()*#@ out of the bathroom? That what you mean?


cleaning there room more then the rest of the house
Yes. But that's because they're more *sensitive* to the mess than I am


Alway's buying them stuff they already have dozens of
...and will stuff them under the couch, suffering the same fate as the other dozens...

Opening more then 1 kind of food, when they don't eat it, at the same time saying don't you like that one

At least I fixed that one... they get one kind, all the time... if they don't want it, they eat the usual dry! LOL... I say I'd do that with a human kid, but what do I know, I'm human-childless so far! At least I heat it up for 'em in the microwave anyway.

Sitting wherever you can because there sretched out in your chair

Hey, it's a sectional... one space is *almost* as good as the next anyway

I don't think I could afford a posh apartment off of Broadway in NYC, they still think CATS is playing!

Our six cats and one dog allow me to have a sliver of the bed so I can sleep.
The cats also own the kitchen table, they are fed and watered on it (hey, it keeps the dog out of their food).
If the cats are sitting on the couch, we sit on the floor.
We have one that prefers the kitchen faucet to drink from, we leave it dripping, if we forget, he tells us off.
Yeah, they're spoiled.
