1. He eats like a bird. As in literally, he eats bird food.
This, my friends, was meant for the birds. One afternoon I had the bright idea to make birdseed balls with some extra pork fat. I found a recipe on the Internet and thought Juliette would enjoy the activity. Turned out she was only mildly interested. Catki, on the other hand, was highly interested. And when he got the chance he attacked this ball on the balcony and started eating the fatty part. I guess the seeds could give him some extra fiber?!
2. He thinks he's a dog. He begs at the dinner table when I inadvertently bend over in his direction. Or when I take the plates back to the kitchen afterwards. We try to avoid scraps altogether now but there was a time he got too many. And he has a long memory.

I admit I staged this photo. I had no intention of giving him anything. I'm cruel like that. |
3. He can open doors. I've mentioned this before. He knows how to jimmy the door handles to get into rooms. He jumps and pushes on the handle. That's why we switched the direction of the handle on the other side of this door. But he still tries or gets on the couch to move the upside-down handle. He's done it so much that this door doesn't properly shut anymore and we are forced to put this faux Swiffer to keep the door locked at night when we put his litter box in here. Otherwise he will come into our rooms by jumping and landing on the handle whenever his tummy tells him it's morning. The noise is atrocious when you're sound asleep!
Necessity is the mother of invention. |
Get that kibble, get it! |
So there you go, my cat is crazy. But awfully sweet, too. What weird things does your pet do?

I'm trying to imagine the human voice that would come out of your cat, if your cat could talk. Would he have a French accent? Would he sound like Morris the cat? Your cat is crazy and smart. Very smart....
Aw, our Wally is a bit like a dog too with begging! I am glad neither of ours open doors - although Snow did once manage to open the front door which we now keep locked!
