Re: Hi & Update - my cats :-)

[Guest guest]

In this house we actually don't have the child proof locks on our cabinets -

ANYMORE.

My cats used to get into the cubboard, the hanging ones, and eat chips. If I

leave chips out, they will eat them, they will chew open a sealed bag, they

just know what's in there.

They will eat bread, thru the bag, only one of my cats eats tomatoes, but she

will eat half of three tomatoes - not one whole one.

I can't find containers for cat food, they break into them. So I put a heavy

container on top the catfood bin. One cat holds the lid open, another cat

shovels the food out of the bin for the others. If all else fails, they try

knocking things over, sometimes there is food all over the floor - out of

nowhere! lol

One of my cats eats chocolate. And he drinks my coffee. Only HE makes a

mess!!

I don't even have any room in my own bed. One cat leans on my legs, one cat

is by me feet, one cat is next to my belly, one cat I have to push of my

pillow every night and she hisses at me!! the dogs sleep in front of my bed.

I LOVE THE MENAGERIE!!!!

Your cats sound like mine, always into something and knocking things

over! I love em' though they always make me laugh about something.

And I can relate about the bed thing, I have 5 and my boyfriend and I

never have any room! Some mornings I wake up sandwiched between

cats!! It's great! And I have 2 dogs too, one sleeps at the end of

the bed and one on the side! Pets are great, they help keep me

smiling despite how bad I feel!!!

Hi,

I laughed so hard when I read about your cat and blueberry muffins,

my cat loves them too! she even goes so far as to try to eat the

paper muffin cup/wrappers if you dont shove them to the bottom of the

garbage. I have 4 cats and wouldnt trade them for all the money in

the world. Due to the fibro, friends come and go, but my cats are

loyal till the end.
