Enough with the cat pictures

My cat does that. Not this one, but the other one.
This one just couldn't guess the tool.

Monterrey does that when she is after a house fly. By the way, house flys must taste like rainbows and ice cream to a cat, because she loves them. Every once in a while I'll see her hold one in her mouth for awhile, let it go, chase, and then catch it again only to sit there and taste it for awhile. This will go on until the fly can't operate normally, then it is consumed.

Could be the 'chase'...just the challenge of catching it.

She's getting old now, but in her prime she could do some unbelievable feats.

I wouldn't mind hearing about some of them. I know that mine is in his prime at a little over 2yrs old and constantly pushing the envelope. He always seems to out do himself so I never second guess him!

She came from the Richmond, VA pound in 2000, where I was living at the time. I came back home to Salem that Christmas, and brought her to stay at my parents house. My old room was in the attic, she had the run of the place for the week or so I was in town. The first day there were two mice on the stairs leading up, then next day three, and over the week she had quite the collection, maybe a dozen or so.

We had never seen signs of mice, and haven't since, but she was slaying them left and right the whole time.

She's been chubby since she was around three, but I guess cats don't have to actually look like they are in shape to do amazing things, (unlike us).

I saw her go from laying in a chair fast asleep, without a running start, to a vault off the back of that chair, six feet in the air completely to the end of the hallway about 10 feet, only to turn around and prance back like nothing had happened. Crazy cat. Now she is usually just sunning herself or sleeping, doing her best to avoid Banshee; good ol' girl.

She will sit like this and watch me, while I watch TV; for hours.

What a true buddy she is! They're behavior is so unpredictable at times, and like her's. I had mine jump up outta bed one night and fly from one end of the house to another jumping up on the window sill's crashing thru the vertical blinds and jumping across the computer desk and as quietly as he set off he retreated back to the bedroom and laid back down. I just kinda laughed to myself as there really was no stopping him...

I've had cats that make that noise when they are considering catching something. I don't know what it means.

The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything.
