My Cat's a TV Junkie email this discussion to a friend?

I awoke to a house full of strange sounds this morning. I identified the rain coming in spasms, the drip drip drip of the little leak in my furnace vent pipe, and finally that irritating hummmmm. That was the aerator in my grand daughter's fish aquarium. They are out of town for the weekend and I'm fish sitting.

Ok I got settled in, made coffee and started making breakfast when another sound joined all the rest of the unaccustomed cacophony. I turned slowly, listening to find where it came from. I followed the sound to the living room to find that my TV was on. I have a converter box which is on a timer and it wasn't on so the TV was just static. I looked around in bewilderment and there on the end table sat my cat. I had picked up her toys and put them on the end table while I vacuumed and didn't put them back on the floor. She was sitting on the TV remote playing with her toys! lol Does you cat have any unusual abilities or habits?

my tuxedo cat butt dials the tv all the time.
to be fair though,he usually picks some pretty cool stuff while he's doing it. lol

i used to have a russian blue that answered the phone..sort of.
he'd knock it off the reciever and meow in it.i'm not sure why he did that,i think the ringing made him mad.

I don't have cats. I don't love pets in my house cause for me they cause harm. Good for you, you love cats.

Wow wow wow!
your kitty is a mini genius. How wonderful! You should catch this on film and send in to "Funniest Home Videos" or at least some other thing that features most talented animals! Thanks for sharing that awesome summary of your TV lover!:o)

lol thats funny. we used to have a dog that would freak out when we left him home alone. used to hide the tv remote along with pulling his dishes and toys in front of the tv for us to find when we got home. one day i was sick and stayed home from school. i woke a couple hours later to find him crying in front of the tv. we started leaving it on for him and he stopped hiding the remote! still pulled the dishes in there though. apparently our habit of eating in front of the tv rubbed off on him.

have a great day!
