I like it when kitty goes to one door sees it raining, and tries another door as if it is going to be nice and sunny there. The other one I like is when kitty looks up at me as if to say "make it stop raining!" |

Cats would like to figure out how to be on both sides of the door simultaneously. -- John F. Eldredge -- Actually, I think most cats would prefer that there were no doors, or at least that all doors were always open. When my daughter was a teenager, we had a rather large cat that would jump onto her bed and walk on her in the night. She was a very light sleeper, so she started sleeping with her bedroom door closed so he couldn't come in. One morning I was up before she was. That particular cat walked up to her door and jumped on it. Apparently it wasn't latched properly, because the door swung open. The cat then walked away. You could see him thinking, "My job here is done." Joy Joy |

They are perfectly capable of getting from one to the other without coming inside. Makes me remember my mother yelling at us to stop running in and out of the house. Kids are just as bad. Sometimes I lock the front door just because I can't stand to hear it open and slam one more time. Jo |

I kept her indoors-only because I live on a busy street, and only 100 yards or so from a major highway. On a few occasions, she dashed outside, found that it was raining, made an immediate U-turn, and dashed back inside again. -- John F.

The other one I like is the first frest snowfall with kitty hopping around like a kangaroo to minimize ground contact. |

I remember once seeing my father's cat have to cross through a puddle about 3 inches deep. As each foot came out of the water, she would shake it, then take a stride forward, placing that foot back in the water and lifting and shaking a new foot. It was comical to watch. -- John F.

Suki must have been auditioning for the new Cat messiah. She very nearly managed to walk on water as she tried to cross a full bath. She wasn't as wet I had thought she'd have been for a cat that had taken a bath, but still approached Pickle for help with the post-bath licking. Pickle did help out for bit, beforehe boxed her ears. I think it was that "I'll help, but don't be so damn stupid next time, you idiot" sort of ear-boxing. Those two very much remind me of Ebenezer and Snooch from two lumps. Shadow is just, well, Shadowcat. Yowie |
