The Kitten Thread

Welcome to the thread of cuddly kittens. 🙂

Kittens may be cuddly, but they also scratch the furniture, cough up furballs, get stuck in trees, and you have to clean up their litter! Of course, I'm a dog person, so what do I know? 😀

They don't scratch the furniture if you have them declawed. They don't cough up fur balls much if you give them furball goop and brush them regularly. They don't get stuck in trees if you keep them indoors. You do have to clean out the box. But, at least they use one rather than dragging you out in the middle of the night for a walk. You can put out a large amount of food and they'll eat as they're hungry rather than choking down everything and then barfing it all over the place. A cat doesn't keep barking and waking you and the neighbors. A cat can sit still and relax on your lap for more than ten seconds. A cat doesn't stick it's nose in everyone's crtoch. Yadda, yadda...

Yep. I think I'll keep my cat. 😀

🙂 Good points Ann, I know SoleSeeker will agree with ya too!😉

For some reason cats don't seem to like me, every time one get's around me it will get behind me and rub up against the back of my legs......😱 that just freaks me out and has made me jump and yell.....OMG, or Oh Shit! Had one to bring things to my door steps one time too, someone told it was a kind jesture, any feed back on that anyone?😕

Cat's also like to hang from the curtains/drapes/blinds. My cat drinks out of the toilet and gets me up in the middle of the night to play.

Tracy, that cat liked you. The cat was "hunting" and bringing you part of its "kill". It considered you part of its family and wanted to give you a gift. You should feel honored. Cats choose their people, unlike a dog. A cat may be friendly with lots of people, but it will have a favorite human it considers part of its pride.

Hunting is a very primal instinct in cats. My two indoor cats hunt toy mice and leave them in my shoes. Just their way of sharing in the kill.

My outdoor cat brings it's mice home to feed usually, and leaves me the gall bladder. Obviously not one of the tastier parts, but what the hell, I'm not gonna eat any of it even if it leaves me the mouse's tenderloin!

Bleh...

I can't stand cats!! My Wife loves them though... 😀 😎

-Hey, I'll learn to live with it, after all, she hates my dog, but she deals with him, lol.

Guess you and the wife are lucky, Krokus. Me, I follow the mantra: Love me, love my cat. Pre-requisite: animal lover. All kinds. Period. But then, I don't meet too many who aren't into animals of the four legged kind 😉

Points taken, Ann! I never said man's best friend was perfect. 😀

Two robins were sitting in a tree. "I'm really hungry," said the first one. "Let's fly down and find some lunch." They flew down to the ground and found a nice plot of newly plowed ground that was full of worms. They ate and ate and ate till they could eat no more.

"I'm so full, I don't think I can fly back up into the tree," said the first one.

"Let's just lay back here and bask in the warm sun," said the second.

"OK," said the first. So they plopped down, basking in the sun. No sooner than they had fallen asleep, when a big fat tomcat up and gobbled them up.

As the cat sat washing his face after his meal, he thought to himself, "I JUST LOVE BASKIN ROBINS." ­
