So I have a quick cat story for you. Don't worry, I don't plan to load the thread with cat stories but this is amusing.
So our cats are becoming more comfortable with us and the house. Food is of course a good motivator for most animals and an easy way to gain trust.
Now our cats are still using their safe room (my wife's office) where we have put all their things to make them comfortable. If you ever decide to get a cat or cats it's best to put them in a small room until the get comfortable with the new smells and noises. This goes for kittens to.
Anyway, we are trying to feed the cats a bit more as we find them a bit under weight. We don't think the breeder fed them very well, the cats are both rather tiny but in good health. One of our cats is very vocal. The other is the more skittish one
Anyway, we fed the cats just after dinner and they have dry food to eat when they want. The cat food we're using is Whiskers in the little foil packets.
When we were getting ready for bed we left two packets down stairs on the island bench for tomorrow.
We were deciding if we were going to put the cats in the room with the door closed or let them roam. They decided to go downstairs and the vocal one was making some noise.
Suddenly the vocal one stops making noise, there's some scrambling around and then I see the two them come running up the stairs and into their room.
The cats had decided they were going to have a late night snack later. The vocal one had stolen a pack off the island counter top and hid it in their litter box. My wife found it when she went to check on them before going to bed. To say we both found this rather funny is an understatement. I've never seen a cat steal a packet of food before and hide it.
The cat looked pretty guilty too. You almost wish you had a video recorder.
They're still settling down and I think our vocal one is fairly intelligent, which will be interesting to say the least.
