My cats are so strange.

My cat does the same thing. I'll come home from work and if the girls have left their bedroom doors open, he'll help himself to whatever stuffed animals and toys he wants.Cowgirl said:is to drag out the kids' toys at night.

My kitty drags my socks with him everywhere...leaves them by his food, puts them in his bed, etc. One day he knocked off the basket with all my hair stuff in it and hid them underneath my scale. Put the headbands in the bathroom sink. This morning he emptied a box of tampons and scattered them across the room. He has toys, he just likes my stuff better.Cowgirl said:is to drag out the kids' toys at night. The other day there was a stuffed baby doll and a batman action figure in the kitchen.

This is great..thanks for sharing it!!mv_princess said:
No problem, I ran across it the other day. Still laugh my ass off reading it.Inkpen said:This is great..thanks for sharing it!!
He started swiping my stuff after he got better. He was at a point where I was feeding him wet food off my finger, so I attributed it to me being his momma, and him wanting my scent on his food and bed. It's still cute to see a little three and a half pound kitten walking around with a sock in his mouth.Inkpen said:The reason he does all that IS because he really does like your stuff better. Your cat is part of his "tribe". You do not mark your space like he does by rubbing his scent on stuff.
You mark your space by your scent left on socks, shirts, toys, underware, etc. You leave for the day, or go to sleep, he associates you the awake person who plays with him, to the asleep you who's scent is everywhere.
So, he plays with your scented belongings becasue you are not there. Understand?
When getting new toys, stuff them in the laundry basket..get that new store smell offand your scent on it.
Tampons: it is the cotton..give a cat a Q-tip and he does the same thing. Watch and learn, cats can be very educational. Have Fun!!!

Patrick MacDonald does a comis stip called Mutts, and some times he has the cat, Mooch, playing with his Little Pink Sock..so funny,,and so true cat behavior!!
And Yup..the way we treat our pets, feed them, love them, provide for them keeps them in a kitten type state forever.
