Dirty Methods

A cartoon of a light grey cat sleeping in a laundry basket that is now lying on its side.

Prince (Bristol, UK) likes to sleep in the laundry basket, on the dirty laundry. However jumping up into it can be a bit tricky. Luckily, he's discovered a better way, just knock the whole basket over! Now he can sleep in it easily.

A Day Of Choices

A cartoon of a black cat with two balls in front of him. One is green, but he is eyeing up the yellow ball.

Two balls were placed in front of Doug (Somerset, UK) to see which he would pick. It was not an instant decision, but the humans now know he prefers the yellow bouncy ball over the green wicker ball (today at least).

A Cat In The Right Place

A cartoon of a white cat stuffed into a desk organiser.

The human has been getting some organisational supplies, including a file organiser for their desk. Lydia (Greater London, UK) is an excellent office manager, and tested it immediately. She reports that it is far too small and that cats cannot be organised.

Pressing Some Buttons

A cartoon of a black and white cat sleeping on a laptop, with one eye slightly cracked open.

Lisa (Ontario, Canada) is of the opinion that if the humans really wanted the laptop, they would move her. They never do, therefore, it is fine for her to keep sleeping there.

Leave Nothing to Chance

A cartoon of a ragdoll cat shouting into the rain.

Heavy rain meant that Bonnie (West Sussex, UK) couldn't escort her human to the garage to fetch lunch. He's managed it by himself before, but just to be certain, she stood by the back door, mewing instructions.

A Stare From The Stairs

A cartoon of a black cat licking its lips as it stares out from behind a set of bannisters.

Cassiel (Ontario, Canada) isn't nearly as proper as his hānai brother Terciel, and seems to think that sitting on the stairs and STARING through the bannister will cause the goat roti to levitate into his mouth.

Facial Cleansing

A cartoon of a black cat licking a person's eyebrows in bed, in the middle of the night.

Ollie (Ontario, Canada) reports that 2:30 AM is the appropriate time to clean her human's eyebrows. Why else would he be lying down with his eyes closed?

The Niagara

A cartoon of a tabby and white cat throwing up a long stream of puke, from the top of a cat tower.

Kira (Bavaria, Germany) has to complain that the last mouse must have been gone bad. So she was forced to vomit all the way down from the highest platform of her scratching post.

Percy and the Robin

A cartoon of a tabby cat staring through a window at an angry robin.

Percy’s humans have placed UV decals on the front window, but a territorial robin is still popping by to flutter its wings against its own reflection. Fortunately, the bird seems unharmed, while Percy – mesmerized by the spectacle – watches attentively from the other side of the glass.

HUMANS DO NOT EAT REAL FOOD

A cartoon of a tabby cat looking dubiously at something green on a fork.

Quinn (New York State, USA) was making a fuss about the humans eating lunch, so his opinion was sought on a tiny piece of avocado. As expected, he is of the opinion that they are not actually food.
