Jewel was a very special and unique cat. I loved some of her cute little quirks. For instance, when she could see the bottom of her food bowl, she would demand more food. Sometimes all I had to do was move her kibble around so that the bottom of the bowl didn't show, and she was happy. I don't know why she didn't like to see the bottom of the bowl; Carmine and Milita don't mind it at all.
Another one of Jewel's cute little quirks was that she'd stick her paw in the fountain, get some water on it, and lick it off instead of drinking straight from the fountain. I always loved watching her do this. I thought it was really adorable!
What are some of your cats little quirks?
Smokey my old cat loved to climb the pagoda in the garden ,he would get this wild look and go crazy as he went up and down the post,xx Rachel
ReplyDeleteMy human says I am a bundle of quirks... and so are Binga and Boodie! Like she is one to talk.
ReplyDeleteThe mom says I'm pretty quirky...I love to unroll toilet paper and paper towels. And I always mess up the napkins that the mom has in the napkin holder thingy. Guess I have a thing for paper! ~Ernie
ReplyDeleteOne of my sisters wets her paw in the fountain too! Jewel was such a sweet little lady.
ReplyDeleteWhat sweet memories of Jewel. Do you find that some of your memories are fading with time? Abby loved to drink from the sink and I didn't even realize in her later years that she had stopped this habit. But she gave me one special remembrance, of it : her last night with me she wanted me to turn on the water in the bathroom sink and let her drink. I'll always remember cupping my hands together and feeling her drink from them.
ReplyDeletePipo always runs to tell me about seeing the bowl's bottom, and he too is a kitty who drinks off of his paw. His other fun 'quirk' is to 'lead the way' with pawppy, he wants to be in charge! MOL!

ReplyDeleteEric used to drink off his paw too. When Flynn is being fed he always has walk the complete way around the dining table while he is waiting for me to put his bowl down.
ReplyDeleteOMC Mommy hates it when sis Lexi duz dat to da water fountain. Course she dusn't just stick hers paw in and get a dwink. She pulls da water out over da top and then slings hers paw and sends water flyin' evewywhere. MOL and meez quirk is dat me hates a dirty pawdee box and so as soon as anyfin' is in any of da boxes, me meows ewy loudly till mommy cleans them out. MOL
ReplyDeleteLuv ya'
Dezi and Lexi
If Truffles is unsure how much food is in her bowl she sometimes sticks a little paw in to feel for it.
