My kittens are such DORKS!

My current kitty, Miss Miniver, is too sedate for that, but I know what you mean. I've known plenty who prefer strange perches. Of course, I think ALL cats prefer the highest viewpoint possible ...the better to see who's trying to sneak up on 'em! LOL! But there was one cat I had, Zu (short for Zuchini, because of her profile; her nose looked sort of squashed....ok, sorry...LOL!), surprised me when I cam into the living room & saw her sitting, balanced & Buddha serene, =atop the thin curtain rod!" Furthermore, there were NO tears in the drapes below her! To this day I don't know how she managed that. Or even why--she'd never done it before. I miss her. She was sooo sweet. A wonderful mama cat, too. HER big thing, really, was that she loved music! Minnie likes to lie on the very corner of my bed with bother front legs hanging on either side of the corner, & her head hanging down over the very point. Looks so funny. Zen cat....;o) Maggiepie

I used to have a kitty that loved to jump up from the bathroom sink and up to the top of the bathroom door. Used to scare the shate out of me as I would often NOT look up and all of a sudden he would decide to jump down Yes, I often wonder if my two kitties when they are snuggled up next to each other on MY bed if they are conspiring of some plans. Since my new bed has a bookcase headboard I thought great, a great place to store those books I often read before going to sleep, right? Wrong! I have to leave the one space book free as the two take turns sleeping in their hide-y hole as I call it. My Pyewacket also makes it a habit of snoozing in the cabinet over the fridge, so have to keep that area clear just for him. My what we don't do for our "children"

I bet your kittens are a hoot to watch. I have two miniature pinschers. and a turtle. The turtle just sits in his tank and swims in circles every day. he is still a baby yet. Really small about the size of a half dollar. The miniature pinschers fight to see who will get to sit on the back of the leather recliner. It is funny because it one wants it real bad. The other will come up and knock them right off. I have taken to leaving a pillow behind it for fear they will hurt each other.

When I had the house remodeled in 1999 I had an eyebrow window put in and had the builders put an extra wide sill on it for the cats. I have watched cats go flying across the kitchen, up the cat tree and into the window in no time flat! Often as not, they spin around at the end of the sill and come flying back down the way they went up!

You have a batch of nutty kitties!! lol I had that when Rascal and Music were little, they got into everything and anything!! Music climbed my curtains all the way to the top and walked along the curtain rod! I don't know how he did but he did it! Then we moved and he has a food area all his and the others own. Music would get on top of that, then jump on the door and up again to the top of my cabinets!! He'd lay there all day long and sleep and when he wanted down, he came down the same way! Thump! Thump! lol One day I went into the kitchen and found Music on top of my cabinets!! Now we did wonder how he got up there and one day we saw it, he jumped down onto the counter (which is a no no!) and down to the floor. He must've jumped and grabbed the door at the top and pulled himself up but I don't see any scratches on the cabinets so I'm not so sure how he did it. Now Rascal would grab my leg and play bite me! I'd be walking by and he'd be hiding and lunge out at me and attack me. I was his playmate! lol He's get into my cabinets too and we had to put magnets up to keep the doors closed but he's figured out how to get them open. so we're going to have to come up with something else. I call him "Momma's bad bad bad boy!!" lol He knows I love every bone in his little body!! Spoiled stinken rotten!! lol

my cat Jessycat loves to sit on peoples shoulders he'll curl around their necks and purr. The only problem is he digs his claws in. He once when he was a kitten fell off my shoulders and dug his claws in all the way down. Oh I was wearing a halter top at the time.

Love pet discussions...thanks for posting this one. Hah...do our cats have favorite hideouts or strange perches? Do they get into mischief...you bet! Except we have 5 cats...so they are ALWAYS doing something to keep life interesting. I have posted a photo of two of our cats climbing a ladder that David was using to hang the large planter pot you see. We have to have plants out of reach or they will get into them for sure. We left the room for a minute and came back to discover our gray tabby Shal-lie and one of two ginger twin males...checking everything out. The ladder was a 17 foot one...but they perched up there with no problem. Raia

HI Katlady: What a funny story, I see you started this a month ago?? Yikes how did I miss it the first time around? LOL! I left a comment on your cute pic too of Kitkat up there on top of the door; My crazy cats can't do that to my door, as its always shut here, I live in not such a good neighborhood...bleh! but they do plenty of silly things someday I'll get around to listing the silly toys they have, not your normal toys either but strange ones; Happy Holidays to you and your furbabies!

Oh wow that's really funny. We only have one cat and she's absolutely nuts. She'd run really fast from our living room going to our room then climb immediately on our bed then jumps down then run away sliding on the floor. I think she's enjoying it when she slides on the floor. She loves it when she's in the back porch where she can stalk a squirrel.
