My 4 month old daft as a brush kitten has just sloped up next to me, looking very much like a drowned rat! She has only gone and fell in the bath! A bath full of hot water and bubbles!

Friggin' hell, stupid animal! I've had loads of cats before - non as stupid as this one! She isn't afraid of anything! She feels rather warm I have to say... she smells good though! Just like Badedas funnily enough!

Note to DP: lock the bathroom door in future!

One of my old cats (he moved out of ours and in with the elderly neighbours Hmm )
Did similar when he was a kitten. Ex got up in the middle of the night and went to the toilet. Turned on the light, kitten got a fright and fell into the toilet.
To this day I have no idea what on earth the cat was doing sitting on the toilet anyway but he never did it again.
And it was way funnier than the first time he showed what a great hunter he was and I ended up chasing a small rabbit around my bedroom while he danced about delighted with himself. Grin

Aw, poor kitty! That's so funny.

My 6 month old kitten is also daft as a brush, the other day he sat dangling his tail in my nice warm bath then proceeded to run about attacking it as if it were something alien attached to his body once it was dripping wet! He has since done it again several times with the same result.

I have two nine week old kittens...one has just done the splits after trying to bridge dolls pushchair and scratching post. That would have been ok..but the other kitten decided to attack it's tail and ended up with a bunch of claws in a rather sensitive spot!!
My parents had a cat we re-named singy (was Ginny) when it kept walking across the cooker with an eye-level gas grill. It's tail was always bald Grin

TheDetective · 24/03/2012 23:58

She is all white - I think she is partially deaf - but she isn't blind at all, so I don't know how she ended up in the bath! The dog had bubbles on her whiskers too - I think the two of them have been up to something! They adore each other, so I don't think the dog pushed her in lmao! She is a big soft labrador, who likes to groom the kitten - in a good way - oh god, digging myself in to a hole her. Ahem.

Anyway, she is sat here meticulously drying herself after refusing my offer of a towel. Hmm

Ineedacleaner Both the kitten and dog drink out the toilet when they think we aren't watching. Perhaps that was what yours was up to!

I miss those madcap days. My two are nine years old now- girlie still makes me a laugh when she forgets she has fallen asleep on the window sill and rolls over, landing with a thump. Boy makes me laugh when he gets his head stuck in a crisp packet, the greedy bugger.

edam · 25/03/2012 00:04

Grin at thedetective's kitten but Ineedacleaner's loo-soaked cat made me snort tea dangerously close to the keyboard.

We had a kitten called divvy when we lived in Muscat. I seemed to be constantly fishing him out of the squat toilet.

sashh · 25/03/2012 09:52

I did have a cat who used the toilet - much easier to flush than empty a litter tray.

TheDetective

Does she have blue eyes? Blue eyes and white colour are common in deaf cats and dogs.

edam · 25/03/2012 12:58

We had a cat who took to peeing down the plughole of the bath when we moved to a house without a cat flap (temporary rented house so we couldn't put one in). We had to admire her initiative, especially as she'd spent 11 years living in houses with gardens. But the bill for bleach went up - even though her aim was really good we couldn't bring ourselves to use the bath without swilling bleach round the plughole.

OneHandFlapping · 25/03/2012 13:01

Thank goodnes ehs didn't try and poo down it Edam!

edam · 25/03/2012 13:11

Quite! But you can generally rely on cats to be bright enough to realise poo won't go down the plughole.

TheDetective · 25/03/2012 18:53

I have another cat - she pees and poos in the bath. I guess the bath is the easiest place to clean up maybe?!! Better than the floor!

Not sure what it is with my cats and baths lol!!

Sashh She has yellow eyes - we don't think she is completely deaf, she responds to certain noises. But the hoover or hairdryer don't make her miss a beat, in fact, she hangs around more when they are on! She wants to play with them! She won't respond to human voice though - she doesn't move a muscle if you call her or make those daft noises that cats so often don't come to! She hears high or low pitched things more we discovered!

Cat still smells lush today Grin

my kitten brings me plastic bags (sometimes with veg peelings on) socks (only the one and it has to be a sports sock) and randomly anything leather, last one was a black glove distrubingly there was a police incident around the corner so I hope it wasnt evidence Confused

edam · 25/03/2012 19:13

Apparently some daft cats are attracted to plastic because when crumpled it sounds like mouse bones. Or so my vet told me after my cat had nicked loads of plastic wrapping out of the bin and eaten it. He was rather alarmed when it passed through him and was trailing out of his other end (the cat, not the vet).

jammydodger1 · 25/03/2012 19:21

hmmmm mouse bones something to look forward to Grin although he did one bring home a brillo pad which i though was a mouse (it was barely light) I had to go outside with my wellies on, dressing gown and wet hair in a towel to wrestle it to the bin Grin

teanosugar · 25/03/2012 20:17

Our five month old kitten hasnt started going out yet, but is curious as to where the dogs and other cat go when the door shuts leaving him in.
With the nice weather yesterday we decided to see what he would do outside for about five minutes, all well and good - had a look round, came to DH when called for a treat, came to me when called for a treat, then was put back in the house.
Then.... was seen half way up the back door looking out of the glass!, squeezed out of the kitchen window (open on one notch), sped past me when I went in, then sped past DH when he went in for something. In the end we all just went back in.
Today he has unravelled all the toilet roll.

topknob · 25/03/2012 20:20

One of our yr old cats was chasing a wasp earlier today and ran straight into a tree stump...I did laugh Blush

ToothlesstheDragon · 28/03/2012 10:59

my cat Hob has brought me an empty packet of crisps and an empty packet of cigarettes. He knows what his human likes. :)

TheDetective · 28/03/2012 21:10

Empty?! I'd sack the cat Grin
