We have two crazed cats in here.
Edited on Sat Dec-03-05 01:26 PM by texas1928
they keep darting in and out from under the tree. They are using the Christmas tree to ambush each other.


We just had a herd of horses charging down the hall to the bedroom. Two cats should not be able to make that much noise.

1. Mine chase each other through the house
And yes, they do sound like a herd of animal much larger than the three of them put together. I haven't put up the tree yet, but I'm sure that will be interesting.

2. Well Snickers was trying to help us decorate a few minutes ago.
She was trying to put her bottle cap on the bottom limbs of the tree. She plays fetch with bottle caps.

4. Mine love the plastic rings off of milk jugs
Scribbles puts them in the water dish, then makes a game out of getting them back out.

6. Tiger our oldest loves thoses
She can be in a dead sleep at the back of the house and there be all kind of noises between her and the kitchen and she still hears the first snap as you open a new jug of milk.

9. LOL
I get attacked when I brush my teeth. Scribbles hears the water cut on, and comes running to play in it.

10. They stay away when we are in the sink areas.
But let my wife go potty and at least two of them have to join her. They leave me alone when I am in there. I guess that means I stink or something. Snickers plays in the bath tub. She can spend hours in there and does.

12. I can't potty alone
All three come to make sure that nothing gets me while I'm in there. Scribbles just loves water. She waits outside of the shower while I'm in there, and as soon as I'm out, she's in, rolling around in the little puddles before they drain. She used to paw the door open while I was in there, but that stopped after she came in and found out that I like my showers HOT.

5. Nope they learned long ago to stay off the tree.,
I have a bell that was given to me by a Japanese basketball player we played against when I played basketball in college. It is very loud and they know that if that bell rings they are in trouble. It is a heavy metal bell and it will wake the dead if it rings. We put it on the tree about half way up.
