    "Digging"

    Before Olivia takes a nap, she has to get comfy....so, she diggs wherever she wants to lay down. Isn't that too funny??

    Sometimes my cats have to make a full circle before they can lie down and get comfortable

    Peanut does that too, especially when she's on the bed. Her usual procedure in her new favorite place - her little faux sheepskin "carpet condom" - is to dig a bit, then bake bread with the cushy side of it for about a minute or so, then curl up into a tortellini and go to sleep. I think it would be impossible for her to sleep unless she went through this routine.

    Gee, I thought Speckles was the only one!!

    She likes to occasionally get underneath the comforter and go to sleep and the first time I saw her digging it was the same motion as she does in the litter box and I was so afraid she was going to pee...but instead dug around a bit then laid down and slept. Too funny!!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Yep, my kitty will do that too, when he's getting comfy on my legs - he tries to "soften them up" by digging on them. It tickles really bad! (He's declawed in front - done before we knew of the evils of declawing...... )
    The legend says that Mohammed adored cats. When one of them was sleeping on his sleeve and he had to go out, Mohammed supposedly cut off the sleeve so as not to disturb his pet.

    So many PetTalk terms, I am sure a non-pettalker hardly understand what condom, what tortelini, what bread

    hi there!

    Hi there.. i'm new so just catching up on all the posts

    Out of my 3.. Mozart is the one that digs and goes in circles. It's a recent addition to his antics... Like some of you, the first time he did it I thought "oh no, he's mad at me about something and is gonna pee right there on my bed!"

    But I was soo relieved when he just plopped down and went to sleep!
