I love my cat...usually.But not so much today. Last night he took exception to me choosing to study for an exam rather than play with him...he reacted to my decision by banging on my bedroom window to get my attention and spraying the window frame. I reacted by shouting and running to the nearest exit to yell at him some more. he was waiting for me and shot inside before I could stop him. We then played a game of hide and seek (a game for him an annoyance for me) where he basically ran and hid under stuff while I tried to find him and get him out. eventually I found him waiting calmly at the front door as if nothing had happened. I think her felt he was doing me a favour by disrupting my studies...little bastard. he somehow managed to find the time to claw a couch and spray in the lounge room while I was hunting for him. Grrrr Muchly....To his credit I did get the first bit of exercise I've had in a week.

Eeee. And now he thinks that whenever he wants your attention, all he has to do is be bad. Yeah, not fun. :(

But good luck on your exam anyway.

I love how cats sometimes will 'chirp' as they meow. Dunno what that means or how they do it, but I'm guessing it's cat talk for something good.



And what's w/ putting their butts in your face ? Ugh...




The T.Rex they call JANE!

Mine does that too, and then WAVES HIS TAIL.

Usually doesn't bother me unless I'm writing...

They and dogs have identifying scent glands back there, making the butt-sniff thing the feline and canine equivalent of a human "Whazzup?!" handshake.

Also, for cats, the quick upwards flick of the tail as they pass or when they see you is their version of a humans friendly wave.

Vocally, cats have about 5-6 different subgroups, and depending on heredity 170-210 unique vocalizations, and I can tell you what most of em mean, especially if I know the cat.

Of course, with Kallista you don't NEED a translation, since muchlike a foreign drill sgt chewing out a rookie, the general gist is both pretty obvious, and obviously profane.

What about what I like to call question mark tail? My guess is it means "I'm super happy right now", but I'm just curious. It's when my cat has her tail sticking up and curled at the top into a little question mark.
