Rumor is my pack rat kitty but she's over the top with this blanket. It's a small fleece blanket that has Ripley and Jazz's names on it and I keep it on the top of the cat table in the office window. Rumor can't stand for it to be there and drags it off to varies places in the house. She actually gets worked up an mad when she sees it back on the table top and will grunt. We laugh that the blanket is like "Where's Waldo" except it's "Where's Rumor's Blanket".

Here she is in action.

She bites and shakes it as she's pulling it up and even grunts.

Now off the table.

First she wants to take it into the corner by the file cabinet.

Nope, not the right place.

Where to go, where to go....

Out of the office and down the hall.

This time she took it to the bed on the couch.

Some of her other favorite spots are in the middle of my bed, into the sunroom, on the carpet runner in the entryway, beside the chair in the living room or under the dining table.

Hope you enjoyed "Where's Rumor's Blanket?".

That's too funny! I've never had a kitty that would do something like that. Halo has her ribbons that she'll drag around but only if she wants you to play with her.

Isn't that a hoot? Rumor really knows what she wants and she will go to great lengths to get it (and take it where she wants!).

That is really funny about that blanket. wonder what the attraction is???

OMG!!!! :eek: That was hilarious!!! How precious is that she doesn't like her blanket there. Do you think she treats it as if it were one of her kittens?

I would love to hear the grunts too.

Do you have a video of that? I would LOVE to see it. :D

Catmandu beat me to it. My first thought was maybe you should change her name to Linus.:) Our girl cats do that with stuffed animals. Right now, the only non- cat toy stuffies that are out are out of kitty reach. I can already hear it, "Mommy, Chloe took my teddy bear again!"

Thats sooo cute. When you said she makes a little grunting noise it reminds me of my bunny. If I move anything in his cage, he gets really annoyed, and grunts as he re-arranges everything.

Those pics are priceless!

Well at least they had enough decency to just drag around the clean ones. Vixen has a thing for dragging around pawpie boxers when he gets in the shower. His dirty boxers. :eek: And Lilith seems to like my bras. Go figure. :rolleyes:

Rumor is tooo sweet seeing that last pic I just want to kiss the little nosey right off her face. :) How precious can one kitty be? :D

This is just too cute! We need the pet Psychic to tell us what this means!:D

Oh sweet, sweet Rumor! Seems like you're looking for the perfect hidey place where you can have the blanket all to yourself.Lots of tummy rubs and lovebug for that too cute kitty!!!!!

That is so cute! Rumor is such a sweetheart. She isn't really "over the top" Lori - she is a cat. I bet she has a purrfectly good reason for what she is doing.....probably the same reason that Dylan drags around his feather boa and tries to hide it in his food dish:rolleyes: Let me know if you figure it out and I will share any insider info with you as well.

What an interesting behaviour! What does she do with the blanket when she found a new spot for it? Sleeps on it? It’s like she was dragging around her kittens.

That is sooooo cute!!! And kuddos to you for getting it on "tape" for us to see. :)

Phoebe does the same thing. First it was with the lambswool square we used to put in the top of the cat tree...and then again with one of the teddy bears on our bed. Too cute!

That's too funny!!! :D :D :D What a silly girl Rumor is, and I love how she shakes it to "break it's neck"! :eek: My mother had a cat when we were little, who would carry a (real) coonskin Daniel Boone hat downstairs when company was over, and procede to make baby catcoons in front of everyone.:o

Those pictures are terrific!! I am sure she has a very good reason for not wanting to leave it where you keep it in your office. To funny!!

Great pictures! I never seem to have the camera out when mine do something like that. Rumor's a doll! :D

LOL that is too funny! Lightning never carries anything around, but he does like to steal stuffed animals.
Rumor's so cute, and I agree, you should send it to planet's funniest animals!!!! you'd win $100 and a T-shirt!

Thanks everyone, I thought you might get a laugh at her. She's such a Fruit Cup!

I may have to try to get the video camera working and take a video of the whole thing. $100 and a t-shirt sound great! ;) :D

Oh yes, I'm very thankful it's a blanket she drags around and not undies!!!! :p

Oh my gosh, that is just too cute. Maybe she thinks it really belongs to her and wants it where she wants it.
