Both cats are in their bedrooms, sitting on their beds.
They are both staring into space.
I am wondering what bastardry they are up to.

They are thinking of nefarious ways to wake you up in the middle of the night, like elephant races :eek:, or pouncing on your back with all 4 paws with claws out :D.
I always thought of cats as master mathematicians, producing random and complex computations.
Like how to break into the fridge?
Well, they’re either pondering the Secrets of the Universe, or wondering what hat to wear.
I have the notion that Cicero has at least one Siamese cat. In which case he should be very, very worried. Meezers are generally very intelligent, and enjoy mischief even moreso than nonMeezers.
Yes- an old Siamese and a three legged Blue Persian. And with that I am off to the vets sigh
They’ve already decided to push everything off your dresser. Now they’re figuring out how to shift the blame
Seriously if the cat looks like it’s staring into space, it’s watching something. A spider? A bug? A mouse? Hmmmm. Look for mice bones in the morning
They’re planning to kill you. That’s all they ever think about. Mine are just the same, they just haven’t put their dastardly plots into action because there’s nobody else in the house to open the food for them. Once they devleop opposable thumbs, I am doomed.
Ghosts. This is the first sign of the coming haunting - heard any odd noises yet? Seen something moving out of the corner of your eye…?
They’re communicating with the mother ship. Please put on your tinfoil hat now.
Back from the vet. I felt a bit sorry for her, as I was ringing her about getting his stitches checked.
She said: “Just bring him down and I’ll check his stitches.”
I said: “What time would suture?”
After that she didn’t even charge me. I told her I was spending too much time alone with the cats.
Just thinking- it is concerning when the Administrators remember what breed of moggie you have
You only have to worry if you have a Balinese (medium haired Siamese, different from a Himalayan) and I know about it. I want a Balinese, but I don’t want to pay for one, so I might resort to stealing one.
Your cats have their own bedrooms?! They really have you trained. They are trying to figure out the best place to put their new 50" flat screen TVs that they will convince you to buy for them.
Also, they would each like one of those soft fluffy blankets for the bed, an automatic treat dispenser, fresh catnip and a pet gerbil.
One of my cats has brain damage - unknown trauma before she got to the shelter. Her motor skills are impaired, she “marches” when she walks, her vision is impaired, and I wonder if she hasn’t got some big floaters in her eyes. Sometimes she runs around the apartment chasing something no one else can see. It’s adorably cute, and she’s having a great time while she’s doing it. She used to do that at the shelter, and we all called it her “chasing purple dolphins” moment. Another friend of mine is convinced the brain damage opened her mind to another dimension, and when she seems like she’s running round chasing nothing, she’s actually playing with a 4th dimension cat that we can’t see.
You have cats; you should always be worried.
Actually, the making you wonder what sort of bastardry they’re up to now may well be precisely the bastardry they’re up to now. Psychological warfare, and all that.
You’ve probably got a greeble (or a couple of greebles), and they’re watching it. Greebles are invisible to humans (but visible to cats), can fly, and spend a lot of their time on ceilings. AFAIK, they’re harmless.
At 5 am this morning the Blue Persian came and and started throwing up on the bedroom floor. It has never done this since we have had it. I am looking forward to going to the dentist today to get away from them.
CCL- ain’t it the truth?
Anne- greebles? Thanks very much. I’ll refrain from even thinking about them.
Wile E- the cats kindly let us pay for the expenses for the house and gift them food as often as they like. I am not sure I really like cats.
Sea Dragon, the Persian now has nightmares which is probably understandable after the trauma. He will start meowing in his sleep and will stop if you go in and comfort him. Poor old thing- but I don’t think he can look into another dimension.

Or sleeping. I recall reading they sometimes do that; sleep with their eyes open. They’ll do things like lie in wait in front of a mousehole, and fall asleep with eyes open until the mouse shows up and triggers their wake-up-and-pounce instinct.
