What in the hell happened to that precious ball of fluff I adopted 12 days ago? He’s pretty much airborne with talons extended all the time now.
This is the reason it took me so long to get another cat. I love adult cats, but have never been crazy about kittens.
Everytime I sit at the computer, he wants to play “shoulder baby”, where he gets on my shoulder, nuzzles into my neck and goes to sleep. That worked great when he weighed less than 1 pound and would fit in my hand!
Now he’s tripled in weight, and I have to hold him up there. If my arm gets tired and I put him in my lap, he claws his way back up to my shoulder. So tonite I told him “no more shoulder baby”. He beeped at me for awhile in that fake little kitten voice, but I kept my back turned and ignored him. Until he landed on the back of my chair. And as a special bonus, my son had “Cajun Chicken, Ramen Noodles” for supper, and kitty “killed” some that dropped on the floor. So his first taste of people food is not agreeing with him. :rolleyes:
Gotta love those pushy kitties. We’ve got one who drapes herself across my chest while I’m trying to go to sleep and belches in my face and another who just wanders through the house yowling till you figure out what she wants and give it to her.
I didn’t realize DrJ had logged in in my place. Damn that man, insisting on using his own computer.
Our cat Dawn had a real wind problem when she was pregnant, she’d be letting on rip every minute or so and the smell!!! Pheeew Lethal.
It got to a point where I would lie her on my lap (butt facing away from me) and massage her stomach to get it all out in one go.
Gross - we got her desexed as soon as we could afterwards.
I am printing this out for my son, who not only loves cats, but loves the word fart.
So…thanks.
vanilla! I’m laughing my butt off at this, too. I think this wins as the funniest title I’ve seen all morning.
I just wish I could blame the farting at my house on the presence of pets. And no, I’m not going to say any more about that.
Do cat farts smell like cat food?
When we first got our new cat, she loved to play “shoulder baby.” She stopped when she grew too big to fit up there. She doesn’t fart on us or anything, but that might be because she has our other cat to play with/annoy.
At least they don’t fall asleep on you or ‘help’ you with exercise.

Maybe your boyfriend is pregnant? 
I have owned dozens of cats…I have never heard one fart. Are they just being polite and doing it away from me?
You don’t hear it. You just smell it. It’s nasty.
Johnny, at the risk of giving too much away, I’d say he’s not. Nor am I.
So that cuts down on the excuses, don’t it?
And in regards to Reeder’s question: I’ve had both cats and dogs. They generally seem to fart silently. In fact, when you can actually hear it, you’d better grab the petunias and get out of dodge. It’s gonna be a nasty one!
Does your cat hike it’s leg when it farts?
My kitten was six weeks old when I got her as a stray and she had diarrhea and some severe gas I’m telling you. Fortunately she grew out of the gassiness in a few weeks.
My elder cat is sixteen and still thinks he’s a shoulder kitten but he’s too stiff to climb up there anymore unless I hold him up so I’m generally spared the claw marks. Which makes me kind of melancholy sometimes. Odd.
Some thread title just can’t be ignored, even though you know you will regret the results.
Makes me glad I’m not a cat person. Feline SBDs.
No, just his tail.
Opengrave, your kitty is adorable… and so calm.
"He flew across the room, landed on the back of my chair AND farted"
Could be worse. At least is was your cat and not a date.
Muffin, I’ve been on dates like that. Which is why I now live far, far away from Ontario.
great title! I’m sitting here in my bathrobe giggling… cats are so amusing…
