I love my cat(s) BUT....

[Taz_Zoee]

I can't really think of anything with Paizly. Except that she has to walk right in front of me while I'm on the computer. So I can't see the screen at all. Or she steps on the keyboard and messes up what I'm typing or changes screens on me. Other than that, she is an angel!

Pink Nose is SUCH a mooch! He'll try to get at my food, especially lamb or chicken, his faves.

[Cataholic]

I am glad I limited my complaints to just ONE cat! You all have saints!

[aTailOf2Kitties]

Havoc will pace back and forth across my lap or the desk like he wants some attention, but if you pick him up and love on him he squirms away and starts pacing again.

Toby....where to start? When he wants some food in the middle of the night, he is a real pest and will do anything imaginable to get me out of bed: turn the touch lamp off and on, play with the blinds, or whatever the most obnoxious thing is that he can think of. I now have to unscrew the lamp bulb and raise the blinds at night. To counteract this, he's now clawing on the side of the bed in the middle of the night. He skeedaddles out the door as soon as I stir because he knows I'm gonna either (1)spank him, or (2)get up and feed him.... either way he doesn't hang around.

As everyone here is well aware, I am VERY fond of my Pinot and think she's perfect (she tells me so!). There is one little habit...

Do you all have the spring type of doorstops behind your doors? The ones that are coiled brass with a plastic tip where the door hits? They move back and forth if pushed from the side. If we aren't out of bed on time on weekends she goes after the ends of the doorstops, pulls them back and lets them go, so they make a REALLY LOUD "BOING!"! It will make you jump when unexpected! She is SUCH a clever girl!

Smudge is on medicine for his allergies that makes him feel hungry ALL THE TIME, so he begs constantly! I'll be eating olives or pepperoncini, and he'll beg, so I'll show him an olive, and he'll sniff it and walk away, then come back and beg again. My attempts to convince him that he doesn't like everything I like have completely backfired - giving him a tiny crumb of cheese has only taught him that he absolutely adores cheese! But what can you do? It doesn't upset his stomach or make him break out, so he can have a dot of cheese if he wants.

Love, Columbine

Ooooo this one is easy for most of my guys!

Allen: poopy butt ALL the time. I clean it, and he's like Peanut's Pigpen who gathers dust around him seconds later.

Pouncer: Constant sickness. Will this cat ever be healthy?

Harry: The simple fact that he doesn't like me.

Abby: Will not let me groom her or trim her nails.... and her nails are always sharpened needles.

Flutter: Love me, pet me, love me.... run away. Love me, pet me, love me.... run away. Knocking EVERYTHING off the dresser when I'm ignoring her love me pleas.

Mikey: Knocking over drink glasses. Eating straws.

Trixie: Wrestling Callie. She wins most times but its a ton of noise and always when I need peacce and quiet to relax. and she BITES. Hard. and she steals food off your plate.

Mystic: He looks all sweet and innocent, but he's always dead center of something. The Christmas tree has seen its last holiday thanks to him.

Mac, making biscuits on my neck at 6 in the morning.
Ming, scratching the furniture despite there being numerous scratching post located throughout the house.
My boys, I love 'em to death, but sometimes......

I.LOVE.MY.CATS. LOL! This one little trick of Pinot's might send me over the edge!!!

I love reading everyone's quirky cat issues. Cats...love them, love their faults.

I just smiled at Monte this am....and thought of some of you going through your own things.

I used to have these on the back of my doors but when I painted I decided to take them off. I'm so glad that I did because I'd hate for my cats to do what Pinot does to you.

I thought of a few more things. When my cats scarf and barf and they always seem to do it on the carpet or rug. When Ziggy dunks one of her toys in the water dish. The other morning she dunked a catnip mouse and it turned the water a greenish/brown color. I guess she was trying to make catnip tea.

I do love my cats, the entire Fur Posse BUT I do get tired of finding dingleberries, usually in the dining room yet. Ugh! It's almost always from Specs b/c he has such long hair and one gets caught in his fur.

my sweet lil girl lexie, she is a darling but the most destructive cat i have ever owned, compared to the other two she is a tad nawtee, she has ruined nearly all my net curtains, the wallpaper is scratched to heck, even though we have a big scratch post, which she does use, she also loves all the furniture, i was airing a mattress for my daughters new single bunk set she had bought outside, and who did i catch scratching it, yep you guessed, miss blackie butter would not melt in her mouth.
Not to mention she gets great fun out of clawing all around the bed, yes early mornings when you are still sleeping or she just runs upstairs and does it for the fun.

Nikki well when you go to open the door to come inside, she just sits there for ages before deciding to actually come on in,on a cold winters morning can be a tad irritating.

As for Ellie, well she is a bit of a crazy ole girl,so we just accept anything and everything, but generally her most annoying thing is when she attacks her daughter nikki for no reason whatsoever.
