Thread: Funny or embarrasing cat tales

Reading cooncatbobs posts about his beloved Samantha took me on a trip down memory lane of my own much missed cats. The photos and video clips came out and I started thinking about some of the lasting memories I have of them because of something really silly that they did. So got thinking it would be fun to share our feline shames.

I will kick off with a couple of stories of mine.

I had a ginger kitten who had a thing about shedding paper. He was a nightmare for it. If he got to the post or paper before you it was left looking like it had been through a shredder. Well kids being kids one decided to use the excuse the cat shreded my homework. I got a phonecall from a disgruntled teacher asking if said cat was a Tiger. Having been woken up after only 3 hours sleep (on nights) my reply was "you tell him he's not" and put the phone down. Parents evening was uncomfortable.

My Fudge (who crossed to the Bridge in April) had a bit of coonie in him as he loved water. Well when I say water I really mean ponds, especially fish ponds. There was an article in the local paper about a spate of thefts of koi carp from ponds locally. All of a sudden the remains of a carp landed on the paper as a very wet and black white cat scarpered into the bedroom. We bought him a fishing rod for Christmas. I have pics of the state of him and wil post when I can steal my laptop back from my son or they are on Buddy's Facebook.

Ahh Buddy and Facebook. Yes he has his own account (link on my profile) and he has nearly 2000 cat friends!

Right that's me blushing so come on share!
