The main one that stands out for me is people giving you cat related presents. I have a friend who growing up had a million zillion cats and if I see anything to do with cats I have to get it for her!
ReplyDeleteHehe there's a reason there's so many cat related items on the market!;) x
DeleteGreat post and lovely photographs! I have two cats (although one is much more mischievous than the other) and it's so true what you say about having to let them out at all times of night! One of mine discovered that if I'm in bed, the best way to wake me up is to jump onto my drawers and start knocking things off. He once managed to knock my TV over by doing this, so now I have to get up straight away and let him out! xXx
ReplyDeleteAren't they divils! They know exactly what to do to make you do what they want! x
DeleteI agree wholeheartedly with all your points!! I really miss my cat :-(
ReplyDeleteGreat post though, very funny!
Thanks CeeCee! I'm sorry about your cat:( x
DeleteGuilty as charged! Especially this on -You have more photos of your cat on your phone cat than of anything else. Also, having a folder of your cats pics on your computer and the wallpaper of those rotating every day. Yours are so cute :)
