Caturday box brigade
Coon Cat usually likes to lay around in the kitchen. This morning, he wanted to be petted and have a few treats — or so I thought.
It’s not like him to continue nuzzling my hand when I’m using the mouse. I tried to cuddle with him, he jumped off my lap.
Normally, he’s not this insistent. In fact, this is his usual state.
Hmmmm…..
There was plenty of space for 3 more dogs on the dog/cat beds and no one was using the 4 inch thick cat bed next to his food (pictured above to the left). He didn’t want the indignity of being petted, and he wasn’t going to stop bopping my hand around until I did something about his problem.
I left the scene of this mystery to make a nice cup of hit Earl Grey tea with honey — my go-to think juice.
And there was the answer staring at me
If mom wasn’t going to get the trespasser out of his box, he’d find a way!
There’s nothing like 40 pounds of cat trying to share the same box. The next time they’re out hunting lizards/birds/rodents, I’ll take the opportunity to reinforce the D@#%ed thing with Gorilla tape.
Kitties sure do love their boxes, and can be very insistent about getting what they want! 🙂

So funny, and that box with both cats in there! 🙂 As I was reading your post this morning, our Cricket was bumping my leg over and over. I know she wanted me to come into the kitchen. Well, horrors, when we got in there, her bowl was completely empty! That would never do, so of course I filled it up. They sure keep is laughing.

I do think a cat horror movie would be 2 hours of empty bowls with cats meowing for food. 🙂

My cat has HIS spot on the couch. When one of the dogs used HIS spot as a pillow, the cat just laid on the dog’s head. I came home and found them sleeping that way.

Sometimes I think they need their own sitcom, but the film crew would have to wait for them to move. That’s about an hour a day, mostly when they’re eating.

They have plenty of boxes to choose from, but in typical cat fashion, they have to fight over one box. 🙂
