CATS... CATS... CATS ... And why we LOOOOVE them!

                                       

This is a HUMOUROUS TOUCH for your reading experience this week! I wanted to share it with you and make it a link to the next post 
all about our family pets.

                 
CAT LOGIC!!!

I TAKE THE FOOD OUT OF MY BOWL BEFORE EATING...
Although at first sight this seems a bit pointless, when you learn that it is in a cat’s instinct to protect their food and move it away from other predators (cat siblings, say) to stop them from eating their share, it doesn’t seem quite so bizarre.
I AM TOTALLY IGNORING THAT COMFY CAT BED FOR THIS HARD PATCH OF FLOOR...
As daft as it may seem, some cats will choose a patch of floor for a nap over a cushioned bed as it’s generally cooler and can help them maintain their optimum body temperature. It’s either that, or they’re just playing you for a fool for spending a fortune on a fancy cat bed. (See our
Clever Cat Beds blog post to save yourself some pennies!)
FULL BOWL OF FOOD...YAY! HALF FULL BOWL OF FOOD... FEED ME!
The most likely cause of this is that the food that is left in the bowl has gone off, or just isn’t as fresh as it was. Especially if you feed your cat wet food. You wouldn’t want to eat stale kibbles now, would you?
I CAN SPOT A BIRD FROM 500 YARDS, BUT I CAN’T SEE THAT TREAT YOU JUST DROPPED IN FRONT OF ME, NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES YOU POINT TO IT...
We’ve all been here haven’t we? But when you learn that in order for a cat to see prey at long distances, and in dim and changing light, it sacrifices the ability to focus on detail close up, you can forgive them for what seems like a moment of stupidity.
I LIKE YOU. I’M GOING TO BITE YOU...
This is another purely instinctual habit of a kitty. Often, a cat who likes you will roll over in submission and allow you to stroke its belly, before suddenly turning on you and biting you! This can be to do with their hunting instincts kicking in or their way of telling you they’ve simply had enough.
IT’S 5AM ALREADY. I MUST GET UP, I HAVE A WHOLE DAY OF SLEEPING AHEAD OF ME...
 ???   OR, I HAVE FRESH WATER IN MY WATER BOWL BUT PREFER TO DRINK OUT OF YOUR GLASS! And my cat Lucien, does exactly that!)

What does your cat do that seems to be cat logic? Or what is the thing that your cat does THAT IS JUST TOOOO CUTE!
