That's why it's only rare occasions. Usually they've already slipped past me and are waiting for me to turn on the water. But for the few times I can enjoy a bath and not freeze with the door open I see little furry paws and tails trying to see if they can seek under the door.

Nomilynn- I wish it was that simple that I could just answer them and they'd be ok. But if Scout wants in my bedroom in the morning...no matter how much I talk to him and tell him I'll be up and out in 5 minutes...he just head buts the door. *sigh* He is getting better though...he'll only do that about twice a week now.

You are lucky as the most cats that I can get in a room is maybe 7, as there are thise catscwho like the living room , those cats who like the upstairs and as you have seen the Siamese Connection. God bless you for taking in those little ones and loving them so much that they feel so comfortable being in the same room.:cool

Kitty Heaven!

That was my first thought.

It is a cat palace, and a cat's paradise, no less! I love it when I sit on the couch and have Tenny and Dakky laying on me, Allie at my head, and Tex on the other chair, and Georgia laying under the tv set (the heat blows there). I always say, "all eyes on me now, folks"...and I laugh (they don't, they get tired of hearing it).

I can pull back the shower curtain in the morning and find FIVE cats...Allie is ALWAYS on the toilet seat, Dakky and Tenny on the floor, Georgia and Tex sharing the sink. It is bizarre. I open the door all the way, and one or two may walk out. Allie shares the bathroom with me all am. This morning, I was putting my contacts in, and she head bumped my elbow...and now, I feel like I have put the lens in too deep..he he he.

Jen, you are sooo lucky. I wish I had tons of cats. Six just isn't enough for full coverage.

If allowed - (self regulated) I would have hundreds of cats. Thank goodness my friends check on me every now and then to remind me that I cannot maintain too many more cats than I already have....and that would be three!

That is why I go to the shelter to pet all the other cats. It is like getting a cat fix! And guess what? I don't have to pay their vet's bills etc! I just pet 'em!

I bet that was a site to see! How cute does it get??

Nah, you're not at all crazy, just really lucky!! I've always wondered what it would be like to have multiple cats, but I've never had much of a "collector" personality. (Not to imply in ANY WAY that multiple cat owners are "collectors"; I know that's a recognized mental illness and a tragedy when the cats are not treated properly.) I'm pretty much content with one of everything. I seem to be fulfilling my multiple pet fantasies with YLL's rats, anyway . I admire all of you who can work in or visit shelters regularly - I always leave there with tears in my eyes and feeling very down. The shelter near us will sometimes post the reason for the surrender on the pet's enclosure, and it makes me sick how people treat these animals like "home decor" or misguided gifts. Maybe when I retire from my life-sucking retail job I can rescue a whole "herd" of kitties to keep me company in my old age. (Not too sure how the hubby would feel about this, though....... )

My friends start with "So, how many cats do you have now?" and always act terribly surprised when I answer "Two".

Of course, I'd prefer the answer be "Forty-two"!!
