It doesn't chace him from room to room like the vaccume cleaner does.

(2,015 posts)Likes to stand in back of me and wave her tail in back of my head so it looks like I have a tail during zoom meetings.

(15,682 posts)My Ziggy is actually aware that something is going on! I won't go into it (long story) but he's not terribly smart so I'm surprised when he reacts to the world around him. He's asleep right now on the hard floor right outside my door. And there's a door open to another room with people who want him. Nope. He's happy to stay outside my door - just in case. Just in case of what, I'm not sure. But he knows! I love cats!

Although my pet is not. Sadly.

(118,870 posts)Now, except for groceries once a week, i am home. So they wait for me at the door when i do go out. The little one especially is bonding more with me. But it could be that i ran out of wet cat food for a few days and so they are on my case.
