Do you find that your cat kneads a lot?
Smokey used to knead but she only did it on either our laps if she was sat on our lap or if she was laid on a blanket of hers or in her bed. She usually did it when she was about to go to sleep. I always used to say how we weren't pin cushions when she would knead on our laps as she used to dig... -
Did you know that cats find direct eye contact threatening?
I did know this. I remember as a kid it was my mum who told me that cats don't like it when you make direct eye contact they don't like it. Smokey used to hate it when we did it and very much gave the death stare. -
Does your cat have a favorite color?
This would make sense as to why Smokey liked the color pink. Anything we bought her was always pink such as a pink blanket, pink bed, pink food bowl, and even a pink collar. It may have been that because that was the color she saw a lot that was why it ended up being her favorite. -
Cat supremacy
That cat was not messing! LOL Will admit, cats really do know how to show dogs who are boss for sure, you would think that with dogs usually being bigger than a cat they would be more dominant but this it proof that is not the case! -
Does anyone know how to reset a cat?
I love it when cats get so focused on something, it's like they totally blank everything else out and don't even realize what they are doing. This one looks super fixed on whatever it saw LOL -
Do your cats love boxes?
It's when they hide in the box and the box is shut and you do not realize they are there and when you touch the box they jump out at you. LOL, I swear they secretly laugh when they make you jump. Smokey used to love boxes; whenever we had one, she would be in it. We once set up a box she was... -
Does your cat get on with other cats in the neighborhood?
When Smokey was with us, she was never really a cat that got on with other cats, at least not until the last few months of her life when she started to tolerate other cats a little more than she used to. Prior to that, she would always chase after any cat that came in the garden or near the... -
Have you ever experienced your cat being really scared?
So something that I never really noticed until Smokey was a lot older is how she reacted when she was scared. I can't remember what it was that scared her but I remember her fur becoming all spiked and her tail puffing up and becoming really thick. Have you experienced your cat being really... -

Did you know chocolate is poisonous to cats?
So something I have always known since being a child was that giving a cat chocolate that we consume is very much poisonous for a cat and you should never allow them to have it.

Have you had any funny experiences with your cat and catnip?
Anybody who has or has had a cat will know that catnip is a cat's favorite thing. It will make them do some crazy things when they have it and it is always wise to not give them too much when you do allow them to have it. I remember one Christmas, I, my mum, and my grandma would all buy gifts... -
Do you find your cats mark their scent quite often?
So something I always noticed with Smokey is she would always rub around anything new in the house as though to make her mark. If I had been to the shops and brought back a bag of stuff I bought she would rub around the bag so much until she was satisfied that she had left her mark. Do you... -
Do you ensure your cats have access to grass?
The grass is something that cats need for a healthy lifestyle. It is advised if you have a cat and not a garden with grass that you grow your own grass indoors for your cat. Why is grass important for a cat? Grass acts as a laxative for cats and helps them break down and pass things such as...- Shortie

Cats can live for a considerable amount of years depending on their health from when they are born. With regular vet visits and such your cat can have a long and great life. I have known some cats to live until they were 23 and others pass as young as 10 years old. Smokey was 12 when she... -
Would you allow a cat to fall pregnant once?
So some people tend to get cats and they will allow them to fall pregnant once and then not allow them to again. When we had Smokey I wouldn't allow her to get pregnant as my kids were quite young then and I worried about the kids being around with the kittens. Would you allow a cat to get... -

Have you ever had an issue with your cats scratching your carpet?
This is something I only ever noticed Smokey doing a few times and it would always be the carpet in my bedroom that she seemed to do it to most.

Do your cats seem to notice something you can not see?

What food do you absolutely despise but others seem to love?
Everyone is different and unique, it would be a little weird if we were not unique if I am honest. Due to this, we often love foods that others may not like at all and it got me wondering if anyone has food that everyone else seems to love but you despise and can not eat at all. For me, it...
