11am
Work (bored)


Can someone please tell me what it is about cats and shitting in the bath?

Last night I got home to find the Fluffy White Boy (Fate; our "eldest") sitting in the bath, near the plug hole. This is his traditional howling spot, when he wants the tap turned on for a drink (water bowls being an inferior source of water, obviously.) At the other end of the bath was an all too fresh (ie; steaming) log. 2 feet away from the bath was the (clean) cat litter.

The cat just looked at me indignantly and demanded that I turn on the tap.

Bastard.

I do have a few hypotheses which might help explain this behavior;

1. Cats are inherently evil
2. While dogs do not know the difference between "good" and "bad", only between what pleases and upsets their owners; cats do know the difference and they choose to do wrong, because they are evil.
3. Cats also clearly understand what gets on their owners pecks and do these things due to some twisted sense of humor borne out of the fact that they are evil (only thank god they haven't worked out that shitting in the bed might piss me off more than in the bath)

Fortunately our other cat (MoJoJoJo) is at least half dog. You would accept and understand what I say if you ever saw him eat. Thus he is far more amusing than annoying, his favorite toy being a scrunced up piece of paper or the top off a milk bottle.
