Hahaha that's so funny! Thankfully mine are semi normal. They do love stealing water out of my glass even if their bowls are fresher. I've got one that hits the tap to get drips out of it too. |
EG's best moggie. KNEEL BEFORE MOG. My house smells of cat piss.

Another orange who only drinks out of glasses \o/. My missus used to have a glass of water by the bed in case she got thirsty through the night but she kept being woken up to him drinking it. So now it's his water glass

My cat is a fucking mong when it comes to drinking.
He refuses to drink out of bowls and the like and will only drink out of glasses and he can't even manage to do that properly. He licks right at the edge so it flicks most of the water out and onto the floor.
Stupid orange cunt.
He's ashamed to drink in front of people. If you walk in on him drinking, he just stops with an ashamed look on his face and walks out. He has many psychological issues. -

Heh... We've had to give up on ever having glasses of water by the bed. They both seem incapable of drinking from it without knocking the thing over. -

Registered 17 years agoFriends had a striped orange cat that refused to drink from a water bowl. He would always drink from vases and stuff on the coffee table. They ended up putting a large shallow vase with water on the coffee table just for him. No flowers or nothing. That seemed to do the trick.
Also ... smart kitty!

Rupert will occasionally jump up on the table and try to lay across my laptop keyboard when I am trying to work. Really annoying but also really funny. -

Registered 11 years agoThose kittens look adorable.
Harley cat used to lay on the pc keyboard, it was his was of saying play with me. Of course if he fell asleep there. That was me done. -
Cute. My ginger kitten loves pouncing at the TV when I'm watching formula one. Little stinker is in the sin bin at the moment for not using the litter tray. Picky little bugger. -
They never get too old to want to help out when you're doing some important work...

@basmans_grob not so cute...
Have you thought of changing their food? Might be grain intolerance... Or they could just be smelly little buggers. My two got less rancid when i switched them to wet food. I guess it's because it's grain free, but who knows and as long as they don't stink so much, i don't care. -

Registered 14 years agoI have 5 kittens form our mum cat, about a month old they are ready to be house trained and weaned. Any tips? They have lived most of their lives on towels in a box so seem to think towels are we're you piss. Also they try to eat the cat litter!

Registered 11 years agoI had to train one of mine. It was just a case of keep an eye out for the sniffing out a spot then pick her up and take her to the tray. Even if we caught her mid-wee we'd pick her up and put her in. Didn't take long for her to figure it out.
Although one of them is now so picky if the litter isn't 100% fresh she'll shit infront of the box instead. I've had to put all the the trays/boxes on mats so at least it's on the mat and not the floor. -

Registered 14 years agoHmm. The fluffy one (on the right hand side) has got a heart murmur. Don't know how bad it is yet though. -
@basmans_grob Hope its nothing serious. There are variations of heart murmur and some can have no effect on your life. I've got one myself and was in the forces as its whats called a "functional" heart murmur and it buggers off when I exert myself. -

Registered 18 years agoMy cat is at the psychiatric hospital now.
He is a lovely cat with a great temperament, but has no loyalty and treats the hospital as a hotel, which is only a street or so away. He can hop in and out of all the windows he likes, there are lots of automatic doors and he gets fuss from everyone. When he gets fed up of there he goes through the new housing estates to look for food and rest and rarely comes home.
We rehomed him from SSPCA five years ago, but he hasn't been 'our' cat for three or four years now. He came home last Tuesday night for the first time in two years, for literally a couple of minutes before wanting out again, which is what he did two years ago too.
We used to get calls to collect him when he "looked lost", which he never was, but someone has put a different collar on him so he just does what he wants now. He's fit and healthy. He didn't enjoy it when I tried to keep him about, so he's better doing what he wants. I miss having a cat about but his free spirit has kind of put me off having another one for a while. -

Registered 16 years agoOur Maine Coon is currently on hunger strike. Bastard food manufacturer has changed his food formula and he now refuses to eat it. On our third brand in a search to find something he'll eat. He needed to lose a bit of weight but it's now getting ridiculous. Big bloody pig headed American galoot that he is. -

Registered 17 years agoOne of my Maine Coons is being very picky about using the toilet. Her sister does it perrrfectly every time, but Echo has decided that she doesn't like to jump up on the loo anymore, after months of use, and would rather go on the floor.
She doesn't actually like going on the floor though, and meows to let me know that she needs a crap, and that I should help her in some way. It's massively frustrating but she did eventually jump up and go last night without me having to put her on it when it was actually time to go, so hopefully we're approaching the turning point. -
@Derblington I've just been reading up on cats not using the litter tray because one of mine is doing that. If they are miaowing at the same time, it can apparently be due to constipation, so might be worth looking into as a possible reason.
As an aside, our kitten that does use the litter tray is also called Echo, but he's a guy. -

Registered 17 years agoIt's not a litter tray, it's the toilet. They jump up, do their thing, jump down and then we just have to go and flush it later. She'll happily use a litter tray if I put that down.
I live on the 4th floor of an apartment block, they're house cats. -
@basmans_grob
My one pictured above had a "kitten murmer". Supposedly quite common in kittens and she's grown out of it now, but only a vet can tell you for sure.
Hope yours is as non-serious as ours was

The Prince of Cats hates having a shit indoors, and if his litter box is unavailable will take a dump in the bath.
There's worse places he could do it, of course, but why can't he just use the toilet and flush, maybe run the vacuum around the place -

Nope, super easy. Just buy a kit - we bought Litter Kwitter - and follow the instructions. The girls were comfortable going on the loo immediately, the important bit is to spend enough time in the different stages of making the hole bigger.

I don't know what caused Echo to dislike pooping on it all of a sudden, I suspect she fell off at some point and it shook her confidence. River goes without hesitation and has adjusted to the different stages perfectly every time. -
Might look into that... Though don't have a prayer the ginger one will be able to figure it out. He's a bit "special '.
