My cat was just looking for something on my computer.

I walked away from my computer to take care of something and when I came back, my cat was standing on my keyboard. She did a search on "9999999999999999n" while playing solitaire. The hubby said she may have been showing me how many lives she has. I think she was doing a search on whether it is true that cats have 9 lives. I hope she found what she was looking for. But, I don't think she quite grasped how to play solitaire. She wasn't doing very good at it.

LOL! Now that is just too funny! I think your hubby might be onto something with the number of lives theory. I always imagined what our cats were doing when we were away from home. I figured they were probably logging on to the internet looking for racy kitty sites. Thank goodness we never got a webcam, otherwise hard telling what sort of things the furbabies might have gotten splashed all across the 'net without us knowing! We also teased that we needed to keep a close eye on our long distance bills for any unexplained charges to 976-HOT-MEOW or the like. *evil grin* I was wondering something. I'm guessing for as bad as she may have done with solitaire, could I borrow her to get some pointers? I don't think she could do any worse than I tend to at times. Or if spider solitaire is more her thing, I need all the help I can get with that one. LOL

ROFLOL! Sounds like your Sydney and my furbabies would get along famously. They're not much into the computer game other than trying to eat the pictures of the spiders off the cards in the deck. They totally dig the eight legged spiders though. Well, and I used to have a Siamese who was into crickets. Speeeeew! When she gets a bit better with the numeric system, send her this way. She can teach me how to play Klondike--I've never tried that one. *grin*

Moomin often jumps onto my desk while I am at the keyboard and will happily play with the keys. Fortunately he hasn't figured out how to bid on eBay yet LOL

Whew! That is fortunate that he hasn't figured out how to bid on eBay. LOL! I guess I am lucky that Sydney hasn't figured out how to use my credit cards since she is a bit of a cleptomaniac. LOL! She actually stole one of my friend's driver's license and money once when she was visiting us. Syd found it in my friend's room, grabbed it and brought it to my hubby and I in our room one morning while we were all sleeping. It was the day my friend was set to head back home from her visit and, either Syd thought that it would prevent her from leaving if she didn't have her I.D. and some money, or she thought the hubby and I could use a little extra cash and a new identity. LOL! That girl. She is something else. So, I guess that I am lucky she hasn't figured out the power and danger of credit cards yet. LOL! Otherwise, I might have some new clothes I didn't buy.

Ahaha, your hubby has a good sense of humour. My Mia isn't all that good at solitaire or paint, either, although she always joins me to have a go anyway. The always manages to open my control panel, though =P And the solitaire "Help" window =D Aren't they the cutest!

Haha, it wouldn't surprise me if she was listening to the computer conversations between my boyfriend and I and learning while he fixes them. She's going to conquer the world =P

Hello naseefu! It was at least the first by my cat on my laptop. She may have done other searches on the hubby's computer but, none that he has ever told me about. LOL! And, maybe you are right. Or maybe she was saying she has 9 lives to the "Nth" degree! LOL!

My cat doesn't play computer much any more. If he wants attention sometimes he walks across the keyboard and messes something up I am working on. When he was a kitten he was real playful and would try to catch the curser as I moved it across the screen.

My middle cat will do that too! She gets so into it. She didn't get to get close enough to my laptop a couple days ago to actually bat at the cursor but, the hubby says that she will sit in from of our PC when he is on it and watch the cursor, sniff it and try to bat at it with her paw. Very cute! Those silly cats never cease to make me giggle!

My dog sometimes watch the tv and he looks like he is understanding that but the veterinarium say he cant see tv colors or monitor colors, anyway I'm sure my dog can see something.

I think that your dog can see the movement on the tv screen. And, he can hear the noises that comes from it so, I think he is responding to it. And, that is very cute. My animals respond to the tv sometimes too.
