LOL

I'll hear her calling and look over the banister to see her just sitting there...looking up at me.
Tubby does this ALL the time, and is most persistent right after we go to bed. He goes to the basement and just yowls like he has lost his best buddy or something. He really sounds like he's in pain or something, so Terry always asks me "What is wrong with him?" I just because I know I'll go to see what's wrong with him. I'll get to the top of the stairs and there he'll be sitting, right at the bottom of the stairs looking up at me ever so innocently, wondering why I'm looking at him.

Every night we go to bed, and every night Tubby yowls like that. Now I just call to him and he comes. Sometimes I have to call a couple of times before he quiets down. Sometimes I think he can't hear me because he's yowling so loud.

I don't know, but somewhere along the line I heard that cats do this as they get older....so now Peanut has started too. She'll do it in the morning while I'm in the bathroom getting ready, and Terry is already upstairs working. She'll sit at the bottom of the stairs (what is it with the stair thing?) and start meowing. She wants somebody to walk up the stairs so she can go tearing up alongside them - which is one of her favorite things to do. So when I hear her and I'm in the bathroom, I come out, go up the stairs. I get about half way up and she goes tearing all the way up. I go back to the bathroom and she goes to work with her daddy.
