my cats did not try to wake me up this morning.
Edited on Sat Aug-21-10 07:44 AM by MrsBrady
nor did any of the three walk on me or start meowing for food.
I got up on my own.
Very weird.

I'm very confused right now. In fact I'm suspicious. :silly: What are they up to????

1. Maybe it's because it's Caturday
When I woke up this morning, the Polar Twins were passed out on the bed, the bros were napping on the floor, and basement cat was meatloafing on the window sill. Not a sound from any of 'em.

What the hell is going on?? :scared:

2. My best guess.
Edited on Sat Aug-21-10 08:06 AM by RandomThoughts
Removal of space time or maybe language, maybe some other thing I would guess.


Here is the thing, what do you do when people do good for many but treat you like shit?

If you do something to them, you hurt your own cause of good. If you do not, you do not correct your own situation.


That is the real question, so you can just get pissed at people that treat many bad, but that will not have an effect on your own existence.


So f*ck it and just blanket justice since not really sure who is more responsible in every case anyways. But every once in awhile you can find something that both knows, and does not correct, and does not do any good, then you can logically pummel that thing. Even though that is not best action either, but everyone is flawed.

18. And this has... what... to do with cats?
Did you stumble into a thread that wasn't the one you were intending to respond to? I'm confused.

3. Only cat people use "meatloaf" as a verb!

We traveled this week. :-)

15. That's always fun
One of mine is small, so we just roll her into a ball and slam dunk her into the carrier. The other is a Maine Coon mix with legs longer than mine. Geetting her into the carrier is inevitably a horror show.

16. Just get a towel
covering their head and front legs. Then you just plop them in! The towel serves two functions, that and the cats will get to travel with the smell of home to help keep them calm. Got this idea from a DUer but it works!

5. Mine too, sorta kinda. Maybe it's solar activity. Or neutrinos,
Or some type of universe energy that they are attuned to.
Or communication thru' parallel universe.
Something we don't understand.

7. If there's a conspiracy, mine aren't in on it. I got notified at
4 am, 5 am, 6 am, 7 am - not that they needed anything, it was just to remind me that they're there... :eyes:

10. Get a Geiger counter.
They are building a thermonuclear device in your basement.


Don't be afraid.


They're pretty stable until the trigger has been installed.

12. Whatever it is
mine aren't in on it either. They're all being the usual pesky critters. Or if they are, they're hiding it very well.


Oh, wait. That's all part of the grand master scheme, isn't it??

13. I leave enough dry food in the bowl for a few days. My cats no longer wake me up. Plus they don't
seem to be overeating because neither has gained any weight.

14. The beagle let me sleep in this morning, too.
Hmmm...eery. I fear it means they were up late planning the rebellion.
