Our ginger cat has such a cheeky personality, he's the most loving cat out of our three. When it's raining, he won't go out in it, but cause its raining he decides to trash the house.
He gets up on surfaces and smacks things off, then looks down at them, then up at me with a look of "what you gunna do about it?" on his face.

He also has a special reserved meow, it's the loudest meow I've ever heard, it sounds like meoooowooooowoooow and he only uses it either a) first thing in the morning, at about 6am, he sits on the landing and meows so loud till someone gets up or b) when he sees you outside, he does it to get your attention, then when he's got it he tries to trott along next to you and follow where your going, which means we have to pick him up and walk him home, I actually thinks he likes this a lot, like his personal taxi Grin

Talking about boxes - bought a cardboard carrier when I thought my smudge was a stray and didn't have any other cats so didn't want to spend money on a proper carrier.

Those things feel sturdy enough but 5mins into the trip she was pushing her head out of the bottom corner Shock

It was like this box was giving birth to a cat :)

I can laugh now but wasn't funny at the time.

She's only a little thing but feisty and determined to get out of any human enforced confinement.

Usually now lies on her back in her carrier whenever she has to go to the vet, pushing the top with her back legs like an extra from the great escape and yelling at me.

Little bugger.

Just seen that tank - ha ha ha - brilliant, must get one.

Bags, oh yes, I was convinced i had a burglar in the house last weekend, all this strange rustling and crackling coming from the lounge.

Walk in to find tigger had made himself comfy in the primarni paper bag Grin

My cat is really quite overweight and therefore on a strict diet. She desperately tries to push her mealtimes back by half an hour each day, but is also a barefaced liar about whether she's been fed or not and will complain loudly to dh that I've not fed her, and in fact she's not been fed for days, honest guv.

The funny bit though, is if the person who fed her comes into the kitchen when she's in mid complaint, she just stops begging, turns tail and stalks out. I'm sure she's saying "Yeah, whatevs. Wasn't even hungry or nuffin anyway."

I did make sure she was in the house before they left.

My cat likes to get in the bath with me Smile, it sits on the edge of the bath playing with the bubbles and then steps onto me, it never seems bothered about the water (if i splash him he just sits there), he also likes to get under the duvet in the mornings for a cuddle.

I've got a cat that barks and growls at birds too

She meows at me until I lie on my back so she can sleep on my chest as well.

Our ginger boy cat has an obsession with hair bands, he hordes them, we come downstairs and find two or three lying around in the morning.
When I go into the bathroom to get ready for bed, he comes and sits in the bathtub and stares pointedly at me until I remove the one I am wearing and throw it to him.
He also plays fetch with them.

I picked ours up from the cattery this morning. They are lovely to him (and have bengals of their own too).

I had the cat equivilant of bollocking all the way home. He yelled at me non stop. When I said "do you love mommy" I got silence. Then more yelling.

Then he walked around the front of the houses yelling. God knows what the neighbours think. I can hear him through the doubleglazing and over the TV.
