My cat is so funny...

There I was merrily typing away at my computer. I could hear my cat meowing and pacing a little bit (wanting me to let her outside). Finally she comes around my chair and looks at me like "what's the matter with you! aren't you going to get up and let me out?" Which made me laugh.. she's so expressive.. What does your pet or pets do that make you laugh a bit?

Honestly,i like cat,very,very, much.^^The happiest thing i can imagine with my cat was that:In winter,when i was twelve or thirteen.The outside is snowing and the weather is cold,we(my sister and i)still in bed(lazy~~)and don't wanna get up.Then some little thing jump to my bed and slip into our bed.--That's my cat!!!And it pretends nothing happened and sleep on my stomache!Soon it began sneezing.So cute!But my grangma didn't like it.If she discovered this,she might be crazy!LOL~~So we always hide it.Is it funny? And when my grandma is preparing fish for dinner,The one will take a little fish when we didn't notice it!Which always made my grandma angry...But we still love it~~

Well, to me, I do not like cats at all just like I used to. I am not a cat person at all. I am truly sorry to say that, but, I am just being honest. My oldest sister has a cat and a dog. The reasons for not liking cats at all are: they defacate too much on furniture and they make lots of meowing noises a lot. That is about all.

Our cat sleeps indoor and early in the mornings she comes and scratched the sides of the bed and wakes me up, so when I get up she runs ahead of me to the front door, and when I opens it she goes out. SMART COOKIE!

My cat is jealous of the computer and he's also jealous of books because I read a lot and work with books. Anytime I settle down to read, Humphrey has to hop up on my lap. He's no small fry (weighs about 20 lbs) and it's hilarious to see him nose the book over so he can take it's place. What he does when I'm on the computer is not so funny. He looks for my ever present coffee cup and trys to knock it over. Sometimes it is full. Three times I've had to replace the keyboards that he has damaged this way.

One of my cats sounds like a baby crying when she's demanding something like to go out or more food, sometimes I hear children crying in the street below and think it's Gizmo. The funniest thing about cats I find is when they jump up on something and fall off bringing down all the contents of the shelf or table and then immediately get up and walk away as if nothings happened, it's like they are embarrassed and hope no one saw.

Cats are so sweet aren't they. I have two and one of them is really jealous of any affection shown to her sister. If Siren is being petted and has the good seat, Georgette will come over and encroach on her space until Siren leaves. Then Georgette having got the spot will leave. If Siren finds a new favorite spot, within a week it is Georgette's spot! Aren't they darlings!

Cats can really be comical and they are good entertainment for sure. I have a litterbox here for Shirley but since she's been going out at night, she's not been using the box at all (I think she's used it once or twice in the last couple weeks). I was laying on the couch the other night watching TV and she walked over to the door and stood there for a minute. I was comfortable and didn't feel like getting up right that second, so I told her to wait a little while (like she understood me, right?). Not a minute later she went into the other room to her litterbox and did her business, then came right back to the door again. It stunk to high heavens, so I guess I learned my lesson there! (And yes, I let her out right away at that point).

Yah, I always think that! It sure is nice not to have to clean the litter box as much! I think they do understand us though.. for the most part.. Of course I still do have conversations with my cat that are a bit above her head.. but it's just words to say.. it's the tone of voice I think they hear.. I've trained her this way, so now she never comes back in but is meowing up a blue storm.. telling me what happened outside I wonder.. or what.. who knows what adventures she has out there, especially when she's out all night.. She's a funny little thing. But mostly I love how she will come and tilt her head, and look right at me, like I'm a little weird or something, can't I hear her asking to be let out?

I'm afraid I'm pretty much beyond laughter most of the time these days. Banjo is becoming so pushy. If I'm in bed and he needs to go outside NOW!! he will swing on the curtains. If he thinks I should get up and feed him, he gently touches my face with his paw having first jumped on me then walked on my body the length of me. If I'm on the computer and he wants to go out, he hooks a claw through my trousers and the first 2 layers of fine skin on my leg and tugs. If he wants to be fed, he gently lies on the laptop or on the mouse. If I'm lying on the lounge and he wants to go out he claws through the blanket down near my feet and after extricating his claws from my foot he pulls the blanket off my feet as if to say..."time to get u-up". When he wants to come in he sits at whichever door he's near and squeaks. If I don't respond immediately he rattles the front screen door or climbs the screen on the sliding door. Same climbing deal on the back door. Usually though he squeaks. He doesn't have much of a meow.

Ah, now I understand all his bad behavior is to compensate for his puny meow!???

Bad behaviour?? Nah...he's "communicating" He certainly gets his message across in no uncertain terms...

Angel sticking out her tongue - funny girl
All of my cats are very expressive in very different ways. One sounds like a squeak, my boy cat sounds like a little girl ; and my tuxedo cat is very moody. But she can be affectionate as well as demanding. I love them all. Two of them like to go outside, but only if I am with them. They love the wind on their whiskers.

Well my cat never goes outdorrs. He is a totally indoor cat. He does not like it when I am on the computor because he wants all my attention, so when I am on my computor, he will come and lay on my desk next to my mouse!!He is a pretty big cat, about 13 pounds so he takes up most of my desk.He will steal all of my pens off of the desk, he loves pens, I do not know where he takes them to!!

I have two cats and their so different, but alike at the same time. My one cat fufi, he seems like such an old prune, if he talk to him he'll just stand there and look at you like your crazy, or if you try to pet him, he sorta backs away and gets a disgusted look like, I can't believe your trying to touch me. Or they start biting when they want food. Its funny how they do that stuff.

My Chloe cat is a big cat - big and long. She would want attention, but I would ignore her if I was at the computer. I have an old molded office chair that leans back. She would stand on her hind legs and grab my shoulder and pull me backwards in the chair so I would pick her up and let her lie on my left shoulder while I typed. Her photo is in my profile. She's still an attention getter, but we're temporarily somewhere else and can't do the chair thing anymore.

Yeah, I bet your cat really needs your attention. I know that the cat will make you laugh. Sometimes the pet might need you to do something. I used to have a dog that kept me great company a lot. I always loved him a lot. However I do not like cats at all. I only love dogs a lot. I would have my dog spayed/neutered and receive shots and other medical checkups from the vet. That way my dog would keep me peace.

If someone has a male cat and doesn't get it spayed, they'll regret it! As they will mark the whole house as their territory and that odor just about never leaves!
