As i've slowly learned during Terminal Leave from the Navy, the cats usually have various lotus positions around the house, usually in dad's room (if its Trouble) or just spralled on the floor (If its Lady)
in fact the only times i ever see Trouble is when he comes up stairs when im gaming, loudly announces his presence then demands something. it could be treats. it could be cat crack. it could be he wants me to lift him to the basement window sill (he could jump it but he knows me). or that he wants to go out (on leesh).
in short, he owns the house & if i want to eat a Ham&swiss in peace, i gotta close the bedroom door & put on the headphones... cause if i hear him or see a paw from under the door... i lose it from the Awwwwwwwe factor...

I just got a fun IM from my wife. Our cute little bundle of joy as once again peed on our living room carpet. The living room that I just paid to have cleaned of his urine. So now we have to pull the carpet up and tear out the padding... little freak.

When I used to accidentally leave the door to the litterbox-room closed, my cat would shit on my bed, then sit down next to it and *wait for me*, meow insolently at me, and saunter off.

I heard that if you leave a few little bowls of cat food near where he does a job, it'll discourage him from using your carpet. I guess they don't like using a certain area if there's food nearby or something.

That's what I love about cats, a dog would just do it on the floor, but a cat's smart enough really let you know you goofed.
My neighbors old cat used to sleep on his face in the morning to get him up for work (and also to feed him). They actually just rescued a litter of kittens after the mother vanished. 2 of them didn't make it, but I'm hoping to be able to keep one once they're old enough.

I was once told a story by some very old lady who was around in the 30's about how during the Blitz in London it was safest not to ask what kind of meat it was you had on your plate.
She said that cat tastes a bit like rabbit but less tasty.
Given the smell of the stuff my cat eats I don't want to know what he tastes like.

Same thing happened in France during the Hundred Year war. Where do you think French cuisine came from? Just because the nobility was forced to eat rat just like the rest of the starving masses didn't mean it had to look or taste like rat.

The French are not the brightest when it comes to felines- during the Black Plague, half of Paris was infected or dead and someone decided to blame the cats- leading to the Great Cat Massacre.
Of course, this was before cats became anyone's pets- that's a recent thing, really.
So the rivers were clogged with dead cats and the people celebrated...untill the rat population, which was only kept in check by the cats, exploded, spreading the disease to the remainder of the citizens of Paris.
Months later, those that fled the city or lived nearby "repopulated" Paris.
Man, not a day goes by that the Pessimist's Guide to History does not come in handy.

This weekend I had moose. Moose calf, even. For two days. Eyes-rolling-back-in-head good. Giant pot filled with dark stew, shallot and a few good taters.

Nim's chest cavity was found stuffed with tofu, animal cruelty pamphlets and what appear to be silicone lip implants: witnesses report seeing a manlike figure in a red women's swimsuit fleeing the crime scene- "Hideous" was the description one badly shaken neighbor gave to police.
His murder remains unsolved.
