strange habits

[peanut]

Does anyone  have a pet with strange habits? My cat will clean himself a little bit here and there just as a little touch up, but when he gives himself a full cleaning he goes up to the bath tub.

If cat is stuck in the house and needs the toilet he goes in the bath (sounds nasty but easier to wash away than if on carpet!).  Not that weird though I guess.

Someone on here posted a story about their Labrador, who was old, but definitely young at heart.  His odd habit made me laugh out loud, and still raises a smile when I think of it.  Apologies to lab owner, I've forgotten who you were and don't want to guess, lest I offend you any further. xx

Our oldest cat goes loopy for the box and wrapping of Mint Matchmakers.  not that odd I guess, as a lot of cats enjoy mint...but you see it's ONLY mint matchmakers.  no other mint scented item that's ever been in this house works (and we've tried loads), only those lovely crunchy nobbly sticks.  Of course, she's getting on a  bit,. so we have to buy them occasionally, to give her some fun.  But we only buy them for her, you understand, not the humans who help eat the choccies ;-) !!

Does he run a nice hot bath and add some bubbles to the tub?:o)

That's so cute! bless him. My cat seems to know exactly what time we're meant to get up, and jumps on us meowing and clawing until we get up!

We've got a kitten/cat whos nearly a year old.  His newest habit is to open the cupboard with his cat crunchy box in and eat them straight out of the box.  If we try to move them out of his reach he'll watch and go there later (we tried in the cupboard where we keep our glasses-big mistake).  Its got to a point where evrything that he eats has to be stored in the microwave because hes too little to be able to push the button in fully!!  He can turn lights on and open doors too! Oh and he gives hugs whn you ignore him (he runs up and puts his paws over each shoulder!!) aaw

My friend's cat is black with one eye (from an altercation with a car), one fang (same altercation) and the highest bird and rat kill rate of any cat I have ever known, or known about!!!

He's always bringing in presents like this for his owners.... I am not sure if this is sweet or not as I don't believe that it's pleasant to come home to a cat hissing at a 'naked' pigeon on a curtain rail!! hhhmmm maybe I just don't appreciate the good things like the cat seems too!!! .... ;-)
