Name just one thing...

Storm: When he gets big bursts of energy and races down the hallway and into the living room. I call him my speeding bullet.

He may be 14 but he still has a hidden kitten inside of him.

Sky: When I put my hand into a fist and Sky jumps up to it and gives it headbutts.

Pearl: When she sits on my lap while I'm on the computer and goes to sleep.

Ziggy: When she comes to me with her tiny meow and then gives me head butts because she wants head scritches.

Tink stares at the ceiling a lot. Wonder what they are looking at?

Helen, being in 'the country' I know we get mice sometimes, but often when she stares, there is no tiny scruffles of mice feets going on! That's why we say Gremlins.

No mouse would dare come into my house with 4 cats...would they?

I hope not...

Helen, we've always had cats, we've always had mice.......and snakes.
So....I don't think cats guarantee no mouse in the house.

The cats don't go in the basement and we get mice down there after the bird food and my husbands seedling plants.
The cats don't go in the crawl space, so mice get in there sometimes looking for warmth I guess, as there is no food source in there. And they get on the back porch all year round. Piper caught a mouse on the porch a few weeks back.

Well...my litter boxes are all down in the basement. I have a cat door on my basement door so the kitties can come and go as they need. The cats go to every floor of my house and I do not have an attic. Maybe I will put some traps out just for the heck of it and see what happens. I would totally FREAK if I saw a mouse, or a snake for that matter.

As long as they don't touch me, I'm fine with the critters. Good thing, because out here it's pretty common to find snakes sunning on your front steps or crawling out of your pile of laundry on the basement floor or falling out of the roll-up blind when you go to roll it down to block the sun! I've been known to go out and beat black snakes on the head to get them to let go of baby rabbits.

There are so many

things, but one thing per cat -

Cato: Usually standing on the bed, one of his many vocalizations - "Raa." Not a long, drawn out sound, just a small, quiet exclamation. ("Ra" as in "rabbit" or "radish.") Sometimes it's "er-raa-h or "mraa." Cute!

CB: His adjustability. He likes to get under the covers and allows me to position him for my comfort and his, although he doesn't tend to stay as long as he used to.

Serena: When she lays on her back with a curl to her body and head, loudly purring for a belly rub. This is amazing in a way as she can be a very fussy, aggressive cat.

Koji: When he looks up at me with his gorgeous blue eyes, then rubs on my leg and follows me around. This occurs in the kitchen, mostly.

Miette: I'll give one of her routines. On the bed, she'll look me in the eyes while walking over to me looking like a little panther, knead my stomach in quick strokes, then lie on my chest and purr for a little while, though I'd like her to stay longer. Then she'll get off and lie next to me on her back as an irresistible invitation for a belly rub.

LOL...I can just see you with a stick beating a snake over the head.

The thing I love about Grover is that she is very spoiled! She still meows just like she did when she was a little baby. I have had her since she was two weeks old, and I spoiled her rotten. she also likes to lick the makeup off my eyes.
Then there is Oscar, he loves to have his belly rubbed, he will wiggle and squirm and just loves the whole thing.
