I'm guessing their intentions are to either turn them into cat lovers or to torture them because they aren't.Jami Davenporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05259390150273030284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-4454286670876623152008-05-21T08:01:00.000-07:002008-05-21T08:01:00.000-07:00Kat looks like a smaller version of my cat Tigger ...Kat looks like a smaller version of my cat Tigger when I was growing up. Tigs had quiet the 'Tude too, and there was never a dull moment with his big yellow head around. We have had a few cats since then, as Tigs is long long gone now, but none of them have yet been quite like Tigger was.... Lots of great memories from that giant orange cat! <BR/><BR/>Sounds like Kat has secured his place there with you and your husband... isnt it funny how those non-cat likers are the biggest targets for cats? And isnt it amazing how the cats change their minds? hehehe ;)Mrs. Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15269132012512166439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-33212108634880710592008-05-20T20:33:00.000-07:002008-05-20T20:33:00.000-07:00Yes, Kat, definitely thinks he earned his place in...Yes, Kat, definitely thinks he earned his place in the house. He is a fair weather hunter, though. When the weather's good, he won't come in the house. When it's bad, he spends his days on the couch and nights on the bed.<BR/><BR/>I want to be a cat.Jami Davenporthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05259390150273030284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-81164859171504409292008-05-20T17:16:00.000-07:002008-05-20T17:16:00.000-07:00We've never had a cat because my son was so allerg...We've never had a cat because my son was so allergic to them. I figure the cat feels he earned the graduation from barn to house cat, by all the headless mice he left. The rule is once you reach a certain number of dead mice, you get to come in and be boss.Grey Horse Mattershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837575441967937196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-41532618338498502252008-05-20T09:54:00.000-07:002008-05-20T09:54:00.000-07:00Jami,Kat has a kindred spirit here in Indiana.

Her preferred method is to touch my head or face. Nothing like waking up to see a feline face several inches from your own. :-)<BR/>KitKit Ehrmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03743784832380713463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-13459304118590771472008-05-18T11:42:00.000-07:002008-05-18T11:42:00.000-07:00I can really relate to this post.

Our current "barn cat", an ex-feral (who was trapped by some friends who didn't want him around--we agreed to release him in our barnyard) named Tiger now sleeps on the bed, scares the dog to death, and pounces on us in mock "attacks" whenever he pleases. He's lots of fun, but like you, I sometimes wonder how things got to this pass(!)Laura Crumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15200878892304748308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5037107797013641705.post-7219513308655642382008-05-18T10:51:00.000-07:002008-05-18T10:51:00.000-07:00Hi Jami,Love the picture.

I wouldn't have been surprised if she'd learned to bark!<BR/><BR/>They sure have a way of winding themselves into our hearts.<BR/><BR/>Cheers,<BR/>MaryMary Painehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01312172412621246717noreply@blogger.com
