Mental Malachi...

[wolflady]

...is mental. He is such a funny kitten. Of course, I've never had a kitten so maybe his odd behaviors are normal. What's with the leaving of toys in food and water bowls? I swear I come home from work to find a toy floating in water or sitting in a food bowl. Gross! LOL

Just now, as I was typing, Malachi brought a toy over and dumped it into the food dish and started eating. I threw the toy, and he brought it right back and dumped it in his bowl.

He is such a grubby little guy too. I must have been lucky with Phinehas because Phinehas is a very clean cat. Hardly had to sweep but once a week and Phinehas had such good manners he never got on any of my wood furniture (kitchen table, buffet, coffee table) or anything that wasn't his - oh, but Malachi does, and he leaves prints and smears from his feet! I'm sweeping every other day and just trying to keep up with the Malachi grub. Yuk! LOL

He's scheduled for "the big snip" on Monday April 6, so hopefully everything will go well. Poor little guy isn't the brightest crayon in the box, but he certainly loves Phinehas and he knows how to play fetch!

Awwwww....

Oh, Meowmie... did you see the video that Auntie KAK made of him playing fetch while you were away? It's priceless! Malachi, why does your toy need to be in your food dish? Must be a kitten thing

Malachi and Phinehas, I am so glad you're happy kitty buddies! *kiss* *kiss*

Karen, like I had mentioned before, maybe he's just trying to bury his toys or maybe he wants to be sure that they get plenty of food and water.LOL Hopefully he'll outgrow this soon.

My Sunny,who will be 9 in August,still likes to play with the water in the water bowls. I've had to put them in clean litter boxes to avoid a big mess. I thought he's outgrow this but so far he hasn't. My girls love to sit in my kitchen sink and their paws get wet so I also have the problem of wet kitten paw prints smeared on my counter tops and glass dining room table.

Malachi is just a dirty little boy but I'm sure you love him any way.

I think he is a very clean little guy- first he kills his prey and then he puts it in the food bowl where it belongs

No- I think Malachi is just a kitten and he is a naughty and active kitten. I suppose this is what causes havoc around him now. I remember Filou and Tigris galloping through everywhere- you really thought they were mental. Filou still can be like this- he's a full blood Aby after all. In Tigris his share in Siberian character became more important with age so he is calm now.

I just love Malachi- IMO he can't do wrong

Odd choice of words since my cat's name is Havoc and he does weird stuff too. He's funny though. His favorite game is putting one of his toys in a shoe and taking it back out over and over and over. I can't tell you how many times I've went to put my shoes on in the morning and there's a fuzzy mouse toy in there. If a shoe isn't around, he'll do it with a flip-flop or sandal. He's only put something in the water bowl once, thankfully. He'll also "kill" one of his toys and give it to us as a present in the morning. Guess it's a kitten thing since he's about 10 months old. He's goony sometimes, but we love him for it.

Malachi, my kitties seem to never have outgrown their kitten behavior. I have glass table tops and, if my Fur Posse could talk, they'd never be able to deny where they've been. The evidence in the way of paw prints is everywhere for everyone to see. LOL You sound like a little stinker; just the way I like 'em. Stay a kitten and drive your mom crazy; that's your job. LOL
