Am I the only one who has cats with incredibly strange habits?
For instance, Gizmo is addicted to my laptop. Mind you, she never has any interest in it when I am not working...but as soon as I sit down to get to work, there she comes, sauntering over to plop down on my keyboard.
Chris thinks it's because of the heat, but I like to think it's because I am there, and she wants to be close to me!
Do your cats watch television?
Every once in a while, I catch Gizmo actually watching television with me. I don't know if she's actually paying attention, or just watching the movement on the screen. Sometimes if there's a cat meowing on the show, she'll show special interest. Ha ha!
My cats eat the weirdest things! Stripes LOVES grapes, I mean, he will go nuts and attack you for one of your grapes.
Gizmo always comes after my apples or strawberries, and don't even get me started on when I'm eating a Popsicle.
Tarzan can sleep anywhere, in any position.
He is the laziest cat in the world. I am so used to Stripes always curled up in a ball, so it totally freaks me out when Tarzan lays like this!
I think every cat owner knows that cats loves boxes. I learned from Purina ONE's True Nature of Cats movement that cats like boxes because they can see without being seen, and it is one of those basic instincts to hide and be able to pounce if need be.
But Tarzan doesn't just like boxes. He likes mail baskets and fruit bowls too - another thing that none of my other cats have ever done!
What kind of weird things do your cats do?

Haha!! This totally makes me miss having cats (we had to rehome them because I found out I was allergic). I love how your cat totally just took over your computer. I guess its just their way of showing who they think is boss lol. (My cats always slept in our sinks.)

LOL...this cracks me up! I don't have cats, but my Rat Terrier insists on knocking everything off my desk so she can lay across it. Pets are so funny. I just love them!

My cat Jasmine will climb into the sink or bathtub and won't get out until I am done in the bathroom, no matter HOW LONG I TAKE!

My cat will sit by her food bowl. If we brush her--backwards--she will then eat!! Crazy since most cats do not like to be bothered or brushed while eating!

We adopted a 6 week old kitten about 8 weeks ago. He sits on the computer desk and swats at the moving balls when I play pool online. He also thinks I'm his mommy and tries to nurse on the neck of my shirt.

There's a cat nose on my keyboard as I type this.

Not to be a buzz kill, but please don't feed your cat grapes. As much as he may like them they can cause kidney failure. Google toxic foods and there are a billion lists, some actually are reliable from vet schools.

Jasmine likes hiding in an old laundry basket that I don't use any more. I tried getting a picture but she runs out when she sees I have my cell taking pictures.
