Rose is Rose by Don Wimmer and Pat Brady for March 02, 2013

Well you will have this from time to time… Not when you expect them, but when the human is about to pick up the towel up… By the way it is always meant. Because a cat never does anything accidentally… LOL

Or so that is the way our three act when caught doing something incredibly dumb….

This would not happened if they had a dog. It could have been trained to bring the towel. You can’t train a cat to do anything useful.

i’ll wait.

And one of our cats is excellent at spotting stinkbugs; almost like a pointer. She also loves to play fetch: she drops her toy right at my feet.

I have a separate shower and I put a big beach towel in front of it before I get in. My black cat Boo gets on it every day and rubs all over it and chirps, yips, and makes other noises. I have to bend down and rub her back with both hands like I’m giving her a massage. She then grabs it up in her front paws and scrubs it with her back paws. This is a DAILY ritual and even though I try to be as quiet as I can, no matter where she is in the house, she flies to the bathroom the minute the towel hits the floor. It’s our Boo and Mommy time.

This is embarrassing. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Rose without her glasses before.

Claw snags and many bigger disasters are prevented by occasional clipping. One need not cut them way back; just snip off the needle points. Another reason to do it is the pleasant feeling when one gives a cat’s toe the gentle press that brings out the claw.

Where is Vicki when you need her?

Nice long hair Rose!

i like her hair straight

I’d close the door when I took a bath and she’d be on the other side letting me know she wanted to come in and walk around the edge of the tub.

Just another chapter in why having a cat can be lame.

As a heads up, they make “self cleaning” litterboxes you do have to dump the filled waste boxes, add litter when it gets low, and swap out old litter about once a month, but it’s VERY easy with low stink levels.
