Etiquette for Cats # 4 – 5
Mat says: Don’t let your human go to the bathroom alone. Do you want them to be lonely? If they get lonely they might invite another cat into your house, and that means less territory for you.
Whenever they go to the toilet, follow them. Stare at them while they’re doing their business. Better yet, while they’re on the toilet, use your litterbox. There’s no better time for inter-species bonding. Remind them of how much you have in common.
Koosi says: Humans tend to worry about our health. They confuse us with babies, their loud, stinky, generally useless miniature versions. Be considerate. Assure them that you are in excellent health. Periodically jump up on their laps or computer keyboards and stand with your butt in their face. This way they can sniff you as mammals normally do, and they can determine that you’re perfect.
The cats recommend Becks in Paris, a blog that “imagines Beckham’s internal monologue as he collides with the Parisian intellectual tradition – the glittering surface of a footballing icon cracked open by existentialism.” It is les pyjamas of ze chats. Via 3QD.

Seriously Madam, you hit the nail right on the head with the cats following you to the bathroom. My Prince is a talker, though. When I see him following me to the bathroom, what I do is I would close the door immediately behind me. And then I’d hear him meezer (Siamese miaowing) the door open. Of course, that never happens, but he keeps at it until I get out. Haha, and then he miaows some more, on a more controlled tone. It’s as if he was saying “Antagal mo eh.”
I remember our last trip to the vet. Prince was seated next to me, and I recall him looking out the window, his long body curved as he was trying to look regal and controlled. The vet called us. So I carried Prince up, and I remember he was as stiff as an ornament. Haha, that fool cat was faking it.
This loud snob of a cat is a real piece of work. Haha!
