My mum's Lily is the most fussy eater, but she's just been quite happy to lick korma sauce off my finger tips and even came back for more. Now I get the feeling that I'll never be able to eat curry in peace ever again 
What odd habits do your pets have? |

I cat sit for a family member, their cat has a drink problem, he only drinks milk off the floor tiles in the kitchen or water out of the running tap in the bathroom. Put either in a bowl and he's not the slightest bit interested! |

Yeah, my Lily's the same - has to be the cold tap in the bath or she's not interested! I'm catsitting her next month too, it's going to be a trying week  |

Ironically I used to have a cat called sox, not named after soxy you understand, it had white paws that looked like it had socks on, but it's name was sox because I wouldn't pay for the extra two letters on his name tag.
And just like all cats it was a smug self important bastard with an un earned sense of entitlement, cats think a lot of themselves |

Cat sat for a while and despite the cat toys/scratching posts and what not they can't seem to keep the claws out of the covered up 'aka nothing to see here cats' decent sofa and chair. 
They love resh litter too, it's like they save themselves just for that luxury |

Strange I know  |

I'm suddenly warming to the idea of a cat...
Perhaps if they could train one to sing zooby doo-----zooby doo----zooby doo..... it could be the perfect irritant ...

The last cat I had used to love cheese and frozen peas...
I got her from the cats protection league and I think she must have been badly treated by a previous owner as whenever anyone opened out a black bin bag near her, she would shoot off and disappear under my bed  |

I once hand reared a kitten that we called miso because he had a love of miso soup. I still have his two sisters Nancy and dexy.
We also had a cat called buttons who would only drink from a running tap and would wash her paws before drinking. She also could only eat food by pushing it to the end of her bowl, her little nose was always covered in food.
Gutted when she was run over |

Harry, my 13 year old long ginger cat taught himself to repeatedly tap on the glass panel next to the front door to be let in. They have a cat flap in the back door, not that far away and do use it as well.

Lily smacks a loose part of rubber threshold against the door when she wants to come in |

It's the same with food thru turn their noses up at indoors, so you put the bowl out for the birds and then the cats are interested. They constantly bring a smile to my face every day and night for different reasons. |

"Our cats love bleach!
Whenever I mop the floor they go barmy and roll around like kittens. "
My Harry does too! Just him, neither of the other two are affected. If it's on my hands, it's like catnip for playing, only catnip has no effect for him, just bleach, Vicks, slippers and shoes. |

One of ours (Sadly recently deceased) would only drink running water. The other one will drink from almost anything except a clean bowl of fresh water!
He's also thick as a brick, my pet idiot. 
(p.s. Flamehaired- I love your profile write-up, you sound wonderfully mad!) |

I have a part time job working in the food research centre for a well known petfoods company. I have to look after 130 cats on my unit. My stress levels have gone right down since I started there. Not really a cat person but really enjoying my job. |

The bleach might smell like their on marking scent. You're not supposed to use bleach to clean up cat pee/scat as it just encourages them to use that spot again.

"One of my cats likes to roll around in my knickers when I take them off at the end of the day!
The other steals toast/garlic bread off my plate!"
My boyfriend's cat loves garlic bread (I think it's the butter), then I looked it up and garlic is bad for cats |

My old (long dead now) cat used to steal my bra, take it out through the cat flat and leave it in the garden. |

Oh yes, very true. I never use bleach for those reasons but a special one made for the purpose. At night, I can't use Vicks or tiger balm, or Harry will just want to play, if he comes into the bedroom. |

"I love cats...I have FIVE which is four too many but I just can't turn them away.
Now my new Lodger has two so it's a mad house of cats.
That's why I don't accommodate........ Lol"
You could if it was a fellow cat lover |

My ginger cat doesn't bother with the tapping. She can open all the doors in the house herself |
