What do you think my cats are doing while I'm away?

[RevCheesehead]

All kinds of things are running through my mind.
So, what are they up to? :shrug:

[SeattleGirl]

1. You probably don't want to know, Rev

:scared:

[RevCheesehead]

10. You're probably right.

Hey, SG! How are you tonight? :hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

2. Let me see.....first let me get some data.....

How many cats?

Are they loose in your home?

Any toys or like that?

Are your cats the things that are running through your mind? hehe...

You go home tomorrow, right? Should be interesting......


:loveya: :hug: :pals:

[RevCheesehead]

6. 2 female cats.

They let me occupy the home - and they might consider letting me return.
They don't care for store-bought toys. However, Oreo has been rather creative in her soccer-playing skills with the top of the milk carton, twistie-ties, and her sister Binky.

And Binky will often take my socks for a walk throughout the house. When I get back, there will be a pair of socks by the telephone, the food dish, and the bathroom.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. I do think they will let you in....after all, they do need to eat!

Doesn't sound like too much mess will greet you.......

Unless they've taken a sudden dislike to their litter box! :scared:


I'm pretty sure you'll be happy to sleep in your own bed, huh?

I know I am, after a trip away......:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

9. I dunno -

I've grown rather attached to this hide-a-bed sofa. Ouch!

Yes, I'll be home sometime tomorrow.

[SoCalDem]

3. Walking on counter tops and then sleeping

:)

[RevCheesehead]

11. Countertops are the only Verboten spot in the house.

Yup, at least one of them will be. (the other can't jump well at all)

BTW - How are your scars healing?

[madeline_con]

23. Ouch! that looks swollen.

Have you had it checked out?

[SoCalDem]

39. Every day check ups at the ER and shots & pills

the pic is a link to the drama and other pictures.:)

[madeline_con]

41. I remember the drama all too well. Feel better soon. n/t

[sasquatch]

4. Calling all their friends and doing catnip

The meaner ones are probably planning on pulling a mean prank on a local dog.

[RevCheesehead]

12. I'll have you know that I'm a good cat-mom.

I left them some catnip in a bowl before I left. :hippie:
The dog is on his own.

[LynneSin]

78. Let me guess, you'd leave out a bowl of Cocaine for the kids

I mean, I can't believe you're enabling your cats like that

:eyes:

[RevCheesehead]

81. Nope - it's a matter of overkill.

Take the evil stigma from it, and they'll get bored.
I came home, and found catnip still in the bowl... and two very content kitties. :)

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

5. PAAAAAARRRRRRTY

:party::bounce::party::bounce:
:party::bounce:

[RevCheesehead]

14. I hope so.

I also hope they clean up after themselves. :party:

[yvr girl]

7. Drinking Scotch

smoking cigars and making overseas calls.

Meow.

[RevCheesehead]

They'd need help.

I don't have any scotch or cigars, and they're not over 21.

[NMMNG]

13. Have you ever seen that cat litter commercial?

That's pretty much what they're up to.

[RevCheesehead]

18. peeing and pooping?

I would expect that much. In fact, I'd be disappointed if they didn't.

[NMMNG]

50. No

I think it's for Tidy Cats Multiple Cats. There are a bunch of cats having a wild party at the home of 2 or 3 cats while the humans are out. Next thing you know they hear the door and all of the visiting cats scramble to leave (except the one who can't get the lampshade of his head). The premise is that the litter works so well that the humans won't know that more than a dozen cats were using the box that night for the party, not that they show any litter box use in the ad.

[RevCheesehead]

60. It wouldn't surprise me if they did.

They've been telling me for weeks now that they want another male cat around the house. When I get home, a friend and I are going to go looking at the local shelters. But perhaps, they'd rather interview the candidates personally. :)

[NMMNG]

66. That might not be a bad idea

That way you don't have to wait until you bring the newbie home to find out if there are compatibility issues.

[Whoa_Nelly]

15. They're busy testing out

the multiple cats kitty litter

[RevCheesehead]

19. Nah - they've had that for years.

Now they're experimenting with Feline Pine. So far, the experiment has not been much of a success. :(

[Whoa_Nelly]

71. Maybe they're trying THIS experiment

With TP



Or getting into your drawers!



Or cupboards



Or playing dress up



Or raining the 'fridge



Or MAYBE they're just doing the laundry for you, their beloved master...

[RevCheesehead]

73. ROFLOL!

Oh my, can I choose all of the above?? :7
Thanks for the laugh, Nelly!

(Those aren't your kitties, are they?)

[Whoa_Nelly]

80. You can view all sorts of bad kitties here

The cats aren't mine...am petless right now :cry: But looking forward to buying a home this year so I can have any & all the pets I want again!

Anyway...here are pages and pages of Bad Kitties!!! :rofl:

http://dorissimo.net/badkitties/bad.html

[Bridget Burke]

77. The last picture looks like a nefarious scheme....

Any dogs in the household?

[Oeditpus Rex]

16. Binky called me and spilled the beans

Boy, are you in for a surprise! :evilgrin:

[RevCheesehead]

21. How on earth did she get your number?

And why do you like her more than you like me? :cry:

[Oeditpus Rex]

29. Apparently she has connections

at DHS.

And it ain't "more." It's... "differently."
She's got four legs, after all. And fur. :bounce:

[RevCheesehead]

31. Fur?

I don't shave during the winter (my legs, that is) - does that count?

Oops - TMI. :blush:

[Oeditpus Rex]

37. It counts, but

does it poke through your leggings? :shrug:

[RevCheesehead]

40. It's cold here, so I wear jeans most of the time in winter.

Ah, that reminds me of a song:

"I've got two legs from my hips to the ground,
and when I move them, they walk around,
and when I lift them, I climb the stairs,
and when I shave them, they ain't got hairs."

Sadly, the second verse was stomped, or somethin'.

[Oeditpus Rex]

45. Stomped, hell

He got blowed up.

:nuke:

[RevCheesehead]

47. I had a feeling you knew.

Call it intuition.
I bow to your superior knowledge. :loveya:

[Oeditpus Rex]

53. You bow to my superior geekdom

And my superior library of Python vids. :bounce:

[RevCheesehead]

56. Not exactly...

I fear that I covet your library. Although, I think DVD would be more practical. (Perhaps I should covet KitchenWitch's collection?)

The rest of my "sins" I will keep to myself... for now.
:loveya:

[Oeditpus Rex]

64. My library ain't half what I want it to be

I've only got "Life of Brian" on VHS. I don't have "Meaning of Life" or "ANFSCD" at all, I've got about half the books and... here's the really bad part... only two or three of their LPs.

:evilfrown:

[RevCheesehead]

65. Now I know what to get you for Christmas.

Sheesh... timing is everything, OR.
So, when's your birthday?

[Oeditpus Rex]

67. Martin Luther King Jr. was killed on my 12th BD

Look it up. :evilgrin:

[RevCheesehead]

68. Ah, you share a birthday with one of my closest friends.

But you're older. :P (not by much, though)

[ForrestGump]

17. Refining cold fusion

Cats know.

[RevCheesehead]

22. They do, indeed.

And they're not telling, either. :scared:

[madeline_con]

20. Playing with mice. eom

[RevCheesehead]

The first (and only) time they found a mouse,

they were so astonished, they didn't know what to do.
But if there are any spiders around, Oreo takes care of them. :)

[Moochy]

24. Pooping

Hopefully they arent thinking outside of the box with this particular activity.
:hide:

[RevCheesehead]

27. LOL

Let's not plant that idea, OK?
I think they've probably logged on to DU, to see what I'm up to while I'm away.

Oh, and any errant posts that might come from my screen-name, are probably Oreo's.

[Moochy]

35. They'd hack FreeRepublic

They'd log in to FR and mess with the freepers, they are cats right?

That's right I called your cat a closet freeper !
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1540928/posts

[RevCheesehead]

36. A closet freeper, or a stealth DUer?

I think she'd toy with them, then post something like "slkekjtshiesd,n.tke..lokjhih!!!001!!"

That ought to keep Agent Mike busy for weeks. :evilgrin:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

25. Dialing 911

Then looking innocent when the cops arrive.

[RevCheesehead]

28. They're good at that innocent look.

I see "what, me, Mom?" looks all the time.
At least they've practiced, and should be ready to perform.

[barb162]

26. either sleeping or finding new places to urinate

[RevCheesehead]

30. Let's hope for #1, shall we?

Um, I mean, #1 as in the first option, not THE number 1.

[barb162]

61. Hahahaha; I have 4 cats and know their little surprises

[Heidi]

32. They're probably teaching themselves a new skill,

like origami, tole-painting, or carpet shredding. :thumbsup:

[RevCheesehead]

33. Origami would be nice.

They could make their own birds to hunt and destroy by shredding.

[Heidi]

38. There ya go!

A new animal-friendly movement: "Origami for Cats!" Between us, Rev, we could do some good work and make a _lot_ of money. :rofl: ;)

[RevCheesehead]

43. I couldn't agree more.

Years ago, I came up with the idea of flavored nicotine gum. People thought I was nuts. I just wish I'd have pattened it. :banghead:

Another idea: Christian horoscopes.
"Capricorn: born under the sign of our Lord, this would be a good day to feed the hungry. But spend your money wisely. John 3:16-17."

[Heidi]

44. I love the idea of Christian horoscopes!

Brilliant! That's truly worth pursuing, Rev! We have these "moon calendars" and "moon agendas" here, where every day of the week is accompanied by a little advice based on the phase of the moon. Something like that with scripture would be excellent, too. :thumbsup:

And how about my idea? The reverse microwave, for when you want to get something cold really quick, like a can of beer or bottle of coke, or the ice cream that melted on the way home from the store?

[RevCheesehead]

46. Maybe Gump got it right (see above)

If they're refining cold-fusion, it's only a matter of time before "Mr. Freeze" becomes a household appliance.

One thing I learned while driving down here: once ice cream melts, it loses something in the re-freezing process. Half a gallon of peppermint ice cream, now too disappointing for words. :(

How do we go about marketing the Christian Horoscopes? I'd want them to be serious enough to get attention, but also snarky.

[Heidi]

57. .

Hmmmmmmmmm. Lemme think about that. I alread have one idea. ;) Check your PMs when you wake up, OK?

[RevCheesehead]

62. Zzzzzz.... huh? wha?

Give me your best suggestions!

Here's one: "Today would be a good day to rid yourself of all evil. It's time to sell that Halliburton stock, and donate the profit to Katrina relief. ("For what will it profit a man if he were to gain the whole world, but lose his soul?" Mark 9:something)

[KitchenWitch]

34. Leaving you belated birthday "gifts"

:shrug:

[RevCheesehead]

49. "Look, Mom - a hairball shaped like the Virgin Mary!"

:rofl: I can hardly wait to get home!

[KitchenWitch]

52. LOL

right up there next to the poo shaped like Jesus!

:rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

58. (spoken in the voice of Bryan's mother)

"Oooh, 'e was always a cute little shit, 'e was." :rofl:

[Porcupine]

42. Adjusting the Feng Shui of your house of course

also, of course, the adjustments only work if your eye level is four inches off the floor.

[RevCheesehead]

51. Brilliant!

From now on, I will crawl about the house at cat-eye level. :)

[merh]

48. Operating a Cathouse

and making extra money for their cat nip fixes.

Think of Risky Business with fur. B-)

Bringing in young felines and selling their virtues.

What a cover too, a rectory. :evilgrin:

:smoke:

[RevCheesehead]

54. "Risky Business - with fur"

:rofl:

I wonder which one is dancing in her underwear? :D


Have you recovered from the games today? :hug::loveya:

[merh]

55. very depressing...

I will recover, eventually, I always do. ;-)

But they fired Jim Haslett today, I liked him, it is Benson I have problems with. x(

[merh]

59. Which one has socks?

Did you leave your sunglasses at home?

What about a priceless "egg" on the mantle?

You need to check both items when you return (after you visualize the sliding in the socks by the stairs. :rofl:

I hope you had a great day with your folks. :hug: :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

63. It was a good day for sleeping.

After the busyness of the visit from the hospice and local nurses, both Mom & Dad were pooped out, so they slept much of the afternoon. I can tell they're still very tired, so I will make my exit a bit earlier than I had originally planned.

I talked to my brother today (about the Packers). I found out that all of them are still taking some time off, with the exception of Sarah, who was back in school today (kindergarten). I commented, "oh, so the rest of you are taking a break from her, too?" (well, my Dad laughed at that!)

I will check the above-mentioned items tomorrow, and get back to ya. :)

:hug::loveya:

[BikeWriter]

69. They're plotting to take over your can opener!

[Dangerously Amused]

70. This:

[Brewman_Jax]

72. Stuff like this

:rofl:

[Brewman_Jax]

79. Or this

:silly:

[noonwitch]

74. Puking on your bed

That's what my cat would be doing.

[kedrys]

75. Probably the same thing the hordes are doing while I'm away...

Smoking all my dope, drinking all my booze, running up my long distance bill, digging to China from the living room carpet, downloading stuff they won't let me watch when I get back...the usual. :P

Actually, the friend who's housesitting for us says things are going abnormally well. It's the first time he's sat for us in the new house, and with all 7 cats. I'm not sure what to think. :D

[LaraMN]

76. Waiting for Matcom and DS1 to get out of the litterbox.

:P

[RevCheesehead]

82. LOL

Now THAT, I believe!! (and it's unusually stinky in there!)
