cats, why do they do this?

Survival
One word --survival!

They see no reason why you should pass by them unimpeded without feeding them first. Ever notice how meoow and NEOW sound alike?

After all, they'd get it themselves if they only could!

it's because cat's are evil

Djjd is, or course, correct. Cats is the spawn of Satan.

Well yes, cats are evil but only because they do as they please rather than as we would like them to do. Sally-dog is often confused.

He is rubbing his scent on you, because you belong to HIM...you are the keeper of his food.

Love.


Now quit yer moaning and feed the goddam cat.

He's bluffing. Try to actually trip on him and you will notice he's just beyond of the distance of your normal stride. Ignore this tactic.

If you step on him really really hard you won't have to feed him any more.

The cat is greeting you, marking you with scent and making sure you notice he is there and therefore feed him as soon as possible.

They just spent the entire night licking themselves and want to buff the saliva sheen up.

Because they are stupid. One of my cats does this and how many times have I ended up kicking the fool thing as a result. He just doesn't learn.

I used to have a cat that insisted on licking my toes while I was sat on the loo first thing in the morning. It was not unpleasant actually.

Also, why does one of my cats insist on sleeping curled up on a folded item of clothing on the bed? The whole bed is free but, no, it has to fit perfectly onto the small surface area of the folded clothes. What's that all about???

Did anybody notice? Colorbook is back.

I mentioned on another thread that Dante now just sits in the doorway and stares at Dys, waking him with his magnetic gaze at 4:30 in the morning. Obviously, Dys has become Dante's slave and he's loving every minute of it--except for the 4:30am part.

Didn't you hear me yoohooing at you over the fence?

I saw colorbook.



I think the cat is pushing you the way you need to go.

he is applying gentle kitty pressure to keep you in line


a line that leads to the counter.

Just to reinforce the notion that cats are evil, have you ever considered that he may be trying to build up sufficient static electricity to cause cardiac arrest?

Dys querido, I've often maintained that the longest distance between two points is the distance Mikey covers between the living room and the kitchen. Back and forth and forth and back and back and forth. All right in front of me. I'm often on the verge of tripping. "Move!" I say, to no avail. "WALK!" I say to the same effect.

I think most humans would push from behind to get us where they want to go. I view this as the cat version of pushing. They won't get behind us. It's a sign of submission. So they push from the front of us. Annoying as hell.

This is just a theory. I'm sure that someone somewhere has the right answer.

This is a very good site. I could not find the answer. I cannot email them either because my email I use is not compatible with what they use. So, you might be able to find the answer through them.
I would like to know too why cats really do this.Webpage Title
