1. Black
2. Siamese
3. Cat in the Hat
4. 2
5. Scratching furniture
6. Snuggling or sitting with owner
7. 5
8. Pass
9. Peace Train
10. Friskies

8 is an unfair question IMHO - it’s either “none” or “any”. I mean, people do keep liions, tigers, bobcats etc, so it “can” be done, but nobody with any brains would do so.

They did in the Sixties. I have a couple of “How to keep an ocelot as a pet” books published around the mid-sixties.

Beautiful cats. I’d love to have one if it was practical.

1. Name a common color for a pet cat.

2. Name a popular breed of purebred cat.

3. Name a famous fictional cat.

4. How many cats does the average cat-owning household own? (Use the number, not the word - 6 not six.)

5. In six words or less fewer, name an annoying cat habit.

6. In six words or fewer, name an endearing cat habit.

7. How many cats does one need before one qualifies as a “crazy cat person”? (Use the number, not the word - 6 not six.)

8. Name a wild cat that can be kept as a pet.

9. Name a song by the artist formerly called Cat Stevens.

10. Name a brand of cat food.

15. chewing on computer cables

16. rubbing against owner’s leg

17. 6

Well now, a wide variety there. 🙂 Perhaps I should first state that I don’t have a cat but did have a pet cat while growing up, just haven’t lived with one for many years. I’ll assume that my answer to #6 does not happen as said owner is walking downstairs. LOL And perhaps my number of cats in house to cross into crazy cat person territory is on the low side (6) but that might just be me. 😃 Damn, I hope Friskies scores something–my daughter called Fancy Feast. 😉

For #3 I wish I could answer Tobermory, as it’s my favorite cat story and I actually have named one of my cats Tobermory. But PiB was the first thing to spring to my mine, and with the voice of Antonio Banderas!

For #8 I almost answered none, as I don’t think wild(as in non-domesticated) animals should be kept as pets. But I think most will give the answer I did, as it’s a smaller animal and looks more like felis domesticus than most wild cats.
