The Siamese mix outright has tantrums if there’s a closed door between her and the human she wants. Howling, thumping on the door, scratching at the door… It’s easier on all parties to just let her come in with me if she’s so inclined.

Thanks to this thread, I’m now getting freaked out by my pets’ nudity.

I’ve sent away for three leisure suits (bell bottoms and all) for the Doberman, the bichon, and the Bernese Mountain Dog.

The cats are demanding formal evening gowns.

And diamond studded collars, as they should!

My dog has never seen me with clothes on.

My chihuahua could care less about nudity but he is very well aware of sex. The minute a woman gets in my bed he runs and gets his whoopie doll and goes to town on it. They have been a couple for almost 17 years now and he is neutered

So you have one of those Siameses too.

I just shake my head at mine and scoff at myself…”and to think I paid extra for that”.

Allie’s a shelter adoptee :). (Poor kid, it was her second time around at the shelter.)

My dogs go crazy when I put ON clothes because 90% of the time this means we’re about to leave the house together, which is their most favoritest of things. Seriously even if I just put on socks with my already-on pajamas they are hopping up and down.

My other two 🐈🐈 are feral rescues. They are better behaved.

Shamus the Maine Coon had sinus problems so the vet recommended bringing him in the bathroom while people showered to let the moist air help him…and it turns out he was a real prude. It didn’t matter who was showering, he refused to look upon the profane sight of human nudity. lol

mom had a cat that if you were in your bed nude and enjoying the ceiling fan or you were asleep on top of the covers while nude would “clean” your dangly bits …I found this out when after I moved in with mom and had taken a cold shower (because it was 110 out) and was on my bed under the fan I dozed off and said cat got nippy… i closed the bedroom door after that incident

True dat. Good ground to OP figure.

Best friend had a cat that would wait on the bathroom counter while he showered. When he came out, she’d leap to his shoulders, then lay on his head, facing forward, a paw hanging at each corner. She’d ride around like that for 5 minutes or so, then jump off. I suppose she liked his short wet hair on her belly? She didn’t do that to his wife, only to him. It looked like he wore a ridiculous cat-hat.

She was a cool cat, and I miss her. Voracious appetite, stocky, unusually muscular. When you picked her up, she always felt a couple pounds heavier than you’d expected.
