My cat goes out at all hours of the night and comes back in smelling like a bonfire. It's not good. I'm convinced he's going out and torching buildings and woodpiles. He's been using a lot of catnip lately and I'm worried it may be affecting his mental health. Anyone else get this problem?

Not really, my cat is very sweet but completely retarded. She meows for food when it's already in her bowl. I point this out to her, but she is not convinced unless I pour in a little more food.

This cat has also eaten too much catnip...

NG, it sounds like your cat is not only eating catnip, but partying in the woods with the teenagers. He's probably drinking beer, too. Smell his breath.

My cat likes to bring her toys inside the house at night. Her toys are live moles, mice, chipmunks, and birds. At midnight, my house becomes a zoo where the animals roam freely.

Our cat often comes back smelling like a stable - I suspect he goes horseback riding at times.

You should be very worried if your cat is seen hanging around with this guy:

I think your cat has made friends with salad fingers.

I'm afraid one of mine has gotten into my gun cabinet

Mine occasionally travels to the near abroad.

Poops.

Pees too. It's pretty strong smelling stuff too. I was thinking of packaging the litter and selling it to the cops to throw on people who resist arrest.

One of my cats is semi-feral. Tuesday is blind in one eye and I am convinced has trouble seeing out of the other eye; consequently I sometimes have to point out her "treats" to her.

My other cat (No Tail) is a big orange cat. He permits the raccoons and possums to eat the outdoor food, but when a huge Irish Setter/Lab mix about 500 times his size comes around to eat, he chases the dog home with the dog whelping tucking tail and heads back to his house. NT is a bully. I make him come inside at night.

At this point, being alive and breathing is an accomplishment for my oldest 2 (16 and 17), since one is in kidney failure and one in liver failure.

In his younger days, though, my male had a variety of creative habits--but his most memorable was grabbing small items and then stuffing them down the sink drain with his paws.

I had taken the sink apart half a dozen times to unclog the elbow pipe before I caught the little bugger in the act.

My cats have no interest at all in going outside.

One of our cats does usefull things. He catches and eats flies. The other one sleeps, or throws up inside the house.

I have two "outside" cats who live in the stables. Their life seem mainly to consist of sleeping. dismembering and partly devouring the local rodent population and strolling up and down in front of the dog's pen to wind them up Smile

However "Laundry Cat" goes mental whenever you peg washing out, rubs round your ankles and jumps in and out of the laundry basket - hence her name.

^^^Seems there is lot of cats follow this leader. Laughing

Our cat also has never caught a mouse or bird in his whole life, but he brings home bird feathers and tree leaves as a trophy. We tell him that's OK with us.

My cat spends his time thinking up new and interesting ways to piss me off.
For instance, only yesterday, he shat in my tool box. It made getting a hammer an interesting experience. It also turned a 20 second job of banging a nail in, to over an hour's toil of having to take every tool out, wash it and dry it.
Basically, if there's something that needs doing to annoy me, he'll find a way to make it happen.

When he's not making my life a misery, he probably spends his nights fighting for the Taliban in Afghanistan or helping the North Koreans with their nuclear weapons program. I have my suspicions that he's responsible for much of the pain and anguish we see in the world today.

Plainly put - he's an evil little bastard.

When I was reading a book about cats, they said that cats take on the personality(ies) of their owners.

This should make us all worried! Laughing

My cat is an amateur hairdresser, he will groom me for as long as I can stand it. Given half a chance he will give visitors a shampoo and set too.

He is afraid of bubbles (the wife got a kids bubble blower, and scared the life out of him), and maybe because of the glass door looking like one, he is afraid of a monster he seems to think lives behind the washing machine.

Because he likes to wake me for his breakfast at Stupid O'Clock in the morning, I'm thinking of buying one of those foodbowls with a timer, that open at a preset time. You can record a preset message, his will begin 'This is the monster behind the washing machine....'

Now that he's given up trying to fly my cat has turned into a champion snorer

My twin sister has a cat named Carla (named after the waitress on "Cheers.") Anyway, everyone else calls Carla the "Cat From Hell." And it is the spawn of Satan. It's all lovey and nice to my sis, but with anyone else--forget about it. The cat is even banned from 2 local vets. They can't handle her.

PMS Cat was sent back to Death Row after my allergies worsened.
Before that there was:
Slutty Cat had the ENTIRE neighborhood's kittens, and what happened to those kittens? They died or ran away and the Slutty cat was sent to the pound due to my father's allergies.

I see no reason for concern in this thread. They all sound like normal, well-adjusted felines to me.

Meow? Prrr. Wink
