Title: Cat's are supposed to dislike water right....?
Post by: Amo_angelus on November 02, 2008, 05:28:45 AM
Mitzy and I are practically inseperable when we're both in the house. I can't even go to the loo without him sitting there in the doorway guarding me. I brought a guy home and was told later that my cat kept watching him and making sure I was protected. But I think we hit an all time bond when I went for my last shower.

Usually Mitzy sits in the bathroom guarding me while I shower. Only there was this pathetic wailing last time so I opened the shower door to see what all the fuss was about and next thing I know he's in the shower with me purring. And he didn't want to get out and leave me either... Aren't cat's supposed to hate showers? Didn't I just read about one certain little boy wailing while his meowmy gave him a shower?

And on another note, he seems to be getting younger. In his face he looks much younger than when I got him. He came to me looking fairly old and now he could rival my four year old cousin for youth in the face.

I think he needs re-naming....Magic suits him well :P It shall be his new nickname.

Aaww, its so cute when they do that!  Ollie will follow me everywhere when I'm at home - he constantly wants to be wherever I am.  However, he doesn't jump in the shower with me - just sits at the doorway and if I'm in the bath he will sit on the floor beside the bath - so I give him bubbles to play with.

Bless Mitzy how lovely.
One of my Persians Louis RIP used to follow me round the garden with the watering can to sit under it & catch the drips till he was 'dripping'! Even the neighbours would water him to his delight!

Awww bless!  :Luv2:  My cat is the same every time I go in the bathroom she has to follow and she shouts at me all the time to turn on the taps!  She will sit on the edge of the bath when I am in it but has not got in yet!  I think its sooooo sweet

Jameson does that too - and will fight the shower curtain at the same time, pretending there are enemies on the other side. He also loves scratching off the anti-slip stickers in the bath. Oh, and when I sit on the loo he will sit on the bath, stare me out and meow and when I flush he'll run up to the toilet and lean inside it to try to catch the toilet monster.

yep, I have had to bar Smidgen from the bathroom at shower time cos he joins me regularly - then leaves soggy footprints all over my work clothes, as a way of saying thanks ... :-:

Dave has yet to get in the shower with me but does play in the bathroom while I'm in there, occasionally asking how much longer I'm going to be.

He is also surgically attached to my ankles when I'm wandering about the flat, sits in the shower (which is next to the loo), while I'm doing my business, then once I flush, sticks his head in the bowl to watch. He is also partial to climbing into the toilet, heaven knows why, found little blue paw prints all over the loo seat one day from him climbing in when I had the loo bleach on it. That'll teach me to not put the lid down when doing the housework! At least I knew his feet were clean that day.

hehe Mitzys not fascinated by the toilet, he just follows me around. And he's not keen on the water in the shower. He tries not to get wet while in, yet won't get out till he's soaked :P

I haven't got any of us in the shower together. Firstly because I'm not dressed and secondly because it's wet :P If I get out he darts out first :P But I have lotsa piccies of him playing outside.
