Angel is my guinea pig. He does not like his wilted veggies, won't eat them, but sometimes when I try to take them out of his cage, he takes a swipe at my wrist as if to say, "Hey! That's mine. You can't have it, even though I don't want it!" Drives me nuts, but he has not done it for awhile now. I learned to give him his new fresh food on the other side of his cage and when he goes to eat that, I grab the old stuff and toss it into the waste basket next to his cage.

He likes Kale and celery. I loves cucumbers, but they don't keep well, in the fridge or on the counter, so I usually only occasionally buy them, usually only during summer.

IKR, Sheila? It's maddening how cucumber don't last very long. Like two days at the most.

One of the kittens had stolen the Maine Coon's bed. Their reactions were priceless. The Maine Coon stopped halfway up the cat tree with one paw in the air and started meowing at her. The kitten just looked up and pretended that she didn't understand what the problem was.

They were there for a while until the Maine Coon gave up and settled on a chair.

The tiny cat I mentioned playing with the Maine Coon on the last page also has a favorite spot. Their Norwegian Forest Cat (they're also large) tried taking it once, but tiny cat literally pushed him away from it.

Norwegian Forest Cat loves stealing chairs whenever someone gets up.

And I should probably get some sleep myself since I spend so much time thinking of where the cats sleep.

Angel, my guinea pig, when I give him a piece of apple, he parades it around his cage first. I wondered why he does this, but I think he does it to get it loose from his first bite. He shakes it a bit, so that first bite breaks off and he can swallow it. He is so funny though, prancing around with his apple in his mouth, shaking it back and forth.

So one or more of our cats often follow me into the bathroom. This morning, it was our oldest, Robert. He jumped up on this cabinet I have next to the door, stood up and used both his paws to try to turn the doorknob, but lost his balance and jumped down to the floor, lol. He couldn't have gotten it open anyway, as the 100-year-old doorknob doesn't work anymore, but I can't bear to part with this beautiful old doorknob, so I keep the door closed with a brick. He must have forgotten that part.

Last night we made homemade pizza and forgot to put the bag of flour back into the cabinet. Well when we go to bed, the Newf's favorite activity is counter surfing. The discovery was made and the flour bomb exploded all over the kitchen and two of the three Newfs still have dried flour on their noses. :eek:

Lol, @intothelight, the price of having cats. But they're worth it in the end.

Our Robert cat often sleeps under the covers on our bed in the winter. It's pretty funny when our little girl cat Sonja approaches him when he's under the covers and he meows, like, "leave me alone." Poor little girl. She loves him. But when he's in his fort, you gotta leave him alone.

 

[Changing4Best]

Ah, his little man fort!

We have a male parakeet named Baby, he has some serious dislike for the tiny bell hanging from the top of his cage. Seeing a tiny, sweet bird get all "Jurassic Park" on the clapper is even funnier, when he was singing to Bob Marley not even two minutes prior...

My husband and I had a parrot that would remove the bells from the top of his cage and drop them onto our dogs as they would walk under his cage. One time he ran out of bells and decided to fly down onto the backside of our female dog. She ran around in circles trying to catch him and he laughed and laughed and then we laughed too, of course. My husband grabbed her collar and I put my hand out so Chee Chee could climb onto me and go back up onto his cage. (We kept him outside of his cage; he would sit on top of it most of the day).
