Dear Cat

Sounds like kitty needs one of those soft roll up beds near you so he can watch!

Dear Ransom & Cougar

My SO keeps telling me I snore. I can't convince him that it is you, Ransom. You snore so loudly that sometimes I can't get to sleep. And if I finally do get to sleep, sometimes your snoring will even wake me up.

Cougar, you have a "purring" kind of snoring. It is not too bad. It does sound strange though.

Please sleep somewhere besides our bedroom if you have to snore. SO's snoring is bad enough..

The lady who gives you a treat every morning and every evening.

LOL! We had one that snored so loudly, you could hear it in the basement under the bedroom - she slept near the heating duct. Daintiest, prettiest cat you ever saw, but snored like a large male human.

Speaking of nocturnal habits, does anyone know if blue-eyed cats in general are less nocturnal than cats with the normal green/yellow/orange eye colour? Last time we took ours for her physical, I mentioned to the vet that she didn't seem to see as well in dim light as any other cat we'd ever had, and that she was much more diurnal than nocturnal. The vet said she would have a different ratio of rods and cones in her retina than a normal eye colour cat. When she examined Taffy's eyes she said that the retina was wavering (jiggling?), which apparently is normal for siamese and siamese mixes. Has anyone here had a non-colourpoint blue eyed cat and noticed that it wasn't very nocturnal? The colourpoint gene is a form of albinoism, but I don't know what's going on gene-wise for other blue-eyed cats.

Dear Joe,

Didn't you see that the warmest spot on the kitchen counter was already occupied by a loaf of rising bread dough? Looks like it made a comfy seat for you, but PLEASE! I wasn't planning on giving it another rise. In this cool fall weather it was already taking long enough.

Hah! Awesome :-D

Our Lyra likes to lie halfway on top of odd objects for no discernable reason, but she's never picked a loaf of bread!

This is a bicycle website and this thread is for cats, right? so the cat wants to go bicycling -- but should I tell her she is backwards?

Aww! You should get her a little trail-a-bike!

(Mine is a tiny mechanic. She will happily inspect your tires, chain and cables after a ride!)

We used to have a devon Rex that loved to sleep draped across the cable box so much that he had no hair left on his chest,belly and crotch.

Dear Cats

I spent nearly 30 minutes cleaning the glass insert on our coffee table that sits in front of the couch. Couldn't you have let me enjoy the sparkling clean surface for at least a couple of hours before you walked al over it and left your paw prints???
