This coming from a cat lover who has, due to family hating cats, lived with dogs her whole life!
Went round to a friend's house last night for a Chinese. He and his partner have 2 cats, who are adorable, but they're just odd...
Why, when playing with their laser pointer toy, do they ignore the mouse picture, the star, the smiley face and the butterfly, but go completely mad chasing the simple red dot??
Why do they not get the concept of their reflection?
Why do they attempt to stalk/chase things that are on the other side of the patio door?
Why, oh why, do they act like heat seeking missiles and jump on your seat 2 seconds after you get up?
Also, why does my friend's cat, instead of gently lying on my feet, stand in front of me, and just flop over onto her side, onto my feet?
Why do they go out the cat flap in the front door and then gaze longingly at you through the closed patio doors to be let in??
See, I'm a dog person, so this is all confusing to me. Along with the strange noise they make in their throat when stalking something, and the bum wiggling they do before pouncing.
Odd creatures, but gorgeous and funny and I want one!
