    I don’t have a cat.

    I have a weird-ish cat that sometimes follows me on my walks. I’m his best friend when we’re hiking buddies. When I see him on the trail, he’s all meowing at me, rubbing up against my legs trying to get me to pet him. And if I stop petting him, he bites me. So that makes me think I’m special.

    But, if I happen to go over to my neighbor’s house (his owner), he won’t come near me. He runs off if I try to speak to him or coax him to come over to me.

    Till next time I see him on the trail, and we’re back to love bites and heavy petting.

    After my cat takes a shit, she’ll run around and yowl. Not meow, yowl. She never yowls except post-poo. But she doesn’t want to interact with me during this time. If I acknowledge her then she stops and just meows and walks around regular. So I just let her have her post shit crazy sesh. Like, I get it, I feel great after dropping one, so its good she feels comfortable enough to express her after shit joy.

    We had a cat that loves to be spun on our office chair. He would dig his claws into the seat while we spun the chair around and around. When it stopped, his head would do the dizzy circular-nod thing. Then he’d meow at us until we did it again. And again. And again.

    One of mine is obsessed with plastic wrappers. She’ll run from any area of the house as soon as she hears one. She’ll steal them if they aren’t thrown into the garbage can with a lid. She’s always sad when I won’t let her have it… she doesn’t understand it’s for her own good 😭

    I adopted a cat a couple of months ago. Every time I run a sink she comes running. It’s like her call or something. I don’t know what she’s expecting.

    When my cat is hungry and I’m at my computer, she will put her front paws up on my chair and then gently tap my leg to ask “food plz”. She increases in frequency over time.

    One of the cats likes to run out to the hallway of my apartment complex and roll on the carpet, for several minutes straight

    The cat gets fresh water daily but wants to drink out of the bathroom sink. Water, soap, and toothpaste. Yum.

        Don’t do that. They just go after places that smell like you. Give them water in a used glass.l if you have to.

      They like running water. Apparently there are water dishes for cats that provide this as a feature.

    When I was younger my mom had cats(started normal 1 or 2, got insane… Highest number I remember is 37 but now she has 0). One cat was a hunter through and through. Basically there was a hall way that ended in the kitchen and my room was the first door from the kitchen. I was sitting at my computer desk, the cat was on top of the fridge. The cat jumped up the fridge, hit ground, jumped again reached my door frame, backfliped off it, caught a fly in it’s front paws, landed, ate fly, looked at me like “aren’t you impressed?”

    Another time… Same cat actually… Another cat had a litter of kittens(old enough to walk and see etc but still kittens)… Hunter jumps in my living room window with a live chipmunk. Puts it down and calls the kittens. The basically encircle the chipmunk and the hunter removes its paw and steps back. Nothing happens. Chipmunk is terrified. One kitten walks up and swats it. Chipmunk runs. Hunter chases, grabs it and brings it back to the circle. This cycle repeats until the kittens have a good idea as to how to attack pray. Hunter kills chipmunk, at which point I intervene and put it outside. It’s was like watching a savage show but it was also just nature playing course. Honestly really interesting… Not idolizing the violence and death but the watching one animal teach its family how to hunt and eat.

    My cat managed to crash a fresh install of Debian Stable to an unrecoverable state, just by walking across the keyboard.
    I had to reinstall, but of course she still got treats for doing such a good job as software tester.

    Cat tax

        Oh, it definitely is.

        I tried to keep her off my stuff in the beginning. But she’s more stubborn than I am, and keeps trying again, for hours and days if necessary. At some point I just gave up.
        Now, when she wants to sit down on the keyboard, I quickly lock it and accept that it’s time for a break and some scritches.

    My cat, a 3 year old tuxedo, does this strange yawn-meow when it’s time for dinner. It’s a combination of him meowing mixed with a full wide mouthed yawn. Its especially funny because he only does it once per night shortly before feeding and he typically has a chirpy meow anyway.

    He chews on everything - paper bags? Food. Our wooden furnature? Tasty! The metal folding chairs? Yum!

    This same cat also breifly learned to turn off the internet and force us out when we were being too boring (such as when trying to fall asleep). We started locking him in a room overnight for a little while, and he seemed to forget how after that, luckily.
