Secret lives of cats

Did anyone else watch? I would have died in the gas explosion. That is because my cat wakes me for breakfast at sunrise every morning with a few paw taps. When that doesn't work she uses the single claw pin prick method. Then tries to head butt me and dig me out of bed. Sometimes licks me, a tongue up the nostril is particularly revolting. Sometimes does my hair. Knocks things off the bedside table. Funnily enough the most effective thing is sitting on my bladder.

DD watched it . We were Shock at the white cat that fell from a huge height and no injuries.

We had a rescue tortoiseshell for 15 years , they do take over Grin
And bring presents !

I watched it. I thought it was amazing. Beautifully done.

My cat also wakes me in the morning just like that and regularly wakes me if something needs seeing to at night, ( a mouse, no food, a slug inside,..)

I watched it

Didn't realise Siamese coats are affected by the temperature

I wonder if its possible to breed one that stays white by keeping it in a really hot house? not that I would ever do that obviously

Saw it, lots of gorgeous cats, quite interesting - footage of cats twisting as they fell fascinating. Lovely story about the cat who woke its people when there was a gas leak.

Voiceover was very OTT though, so portentous while the information wasn't that new or exciting.

I think the narrator was Doc Martin

We cooed our way through it after school. Dc1 wants to know why we did the responsible thing and got cats that were already spayed though Hmm

I thought the voiceover was poor too. Way over the top - and yes it was Martin Clunes

VenusStarr · 04/06/2014 19:15

I watched it. I tried the blinking thing with one of mine and she did blink back but looked a bit Hmm ha!

Meandthecat · 04/06/2014 19:20

I tried the blinking thing with my cat and she looked at me gave me one of her for goodness sake women looks and turned her back on me and walked away Grin

I loved this programme. We are new to cat-owning - we adopted 2 black rescue kittens last year and they have changed our lives for the better Smile
Wish we hadn't waited so long. They are endlessly entertaining & quite different in their personalities.

Agree that the Martin Clunes voiceover was irritating!
