We had two squirrels come down the fireplace at a rental house. The first was suffering from smoke intalation and was walking slowly across our kitchen floor with a smoking tail. Walking slowly till I started screaming and throwing kids on the table. Suddenly the thing came alive. Running all over the house, running smack into the cat and finally out the door. Thant's when squirrel two fell down the chimney. There was nothing slow about him!

We have a wonderful cat, and we can NEVER EVER pay her back for what she has done for us.
She has sat with my husband for days while I have been at work, before he was diagnosed with ptsd and he was in a complete mess.
She greeted me one day with " Good your home, now you can sort him out. I'm going out, enough is enough for one day". Well that is what I interpreted it, as she legged it through the cat flap. I stuck my head round the door and said " You had a bad day then". " How do you know that", he asked " she just told me" I replied laughing.
Now if he goes to bed for an hour, but wakes up feeling bad ( usually caused by a nightmare ) She bugs me for about 1/2 before he comes down, or if I need to go check on him because he is too scared to get up, she head butts me and gets irritated until I go.
She is brilliant with him, and has kept him going some days by just being there.

I tried to change my guinea pig over to eating timothy hay based pellets, instead of alfalfa hay based pellets, as they are more appropriate for an adult piggie. So, I mixed the two pellet types together in an effort to gradually transition him over to just the one.
Nope.
He ate all the alfalfa pellets in the dish, and left all the timothy ones. This went on for a while, and I finally decided to give him just timothy pellets...if he gets hungry, he'll eat 'em, right?
Wrong again.
He started eating the plastic coroplast edging around his cage instead. Brat. I can just hear him saying, "I would rather eat plastic than those pellets!!!"
I gave up. He gets all alfalfa pellets again. :rolleyes:

Man, animals can be stubborn! Thanks for sharing these cute stories!
I've got this cat that likes to jump on the laundry hamper, even though the flap doesn't support him. It's in the office, so every now and then, I let both the cats in (otherwise, they'd get hair everywhere).
He slinks in the room, crouches down, and BAM! he's on top of the hamper and IN he goes. The other cat calmly walks in, sits down by the hamper, and gives me that look that says, "what a dope."
Speaking of catnip dope, they get it once a week, usually on a Friday. They lounge around, lick each other's faces, and start the big martial art fight. It's quite something to watch, 2 giant cats rolling around, biting and howling until one walks away with a tuft of the other's hair.

I have two cats, Lupish and Zeezee. Lupish is a huge old boy, part Maine Coon, part human (I'd swear it sometimes). Zeezee is a 3yr old girl who forgot to grow up.
Lupish likes to eat a variety of weird things. His favourite foods are olives, watermelon, asain pears, mangoes, chickpeas, other legumes, and greek salad. This cat would rather eat any of the above than a steak (we've tested this theory).
Now Zeezee, wont touch anything but meat, cheese, or her catfood, so when we give Lupish his favourites, and she comes over for some, because he is enjoying it so much, and sees that it is fruit or olives she gets mad at me and thinks I am trying to trick her by giving her something different from what Lupish is eating. It is so funny to sit and watch her get all confused and angry thinking I am pulling one over on her.
Another story is about Lupish, before I got Zeezee. One day he and I were home alone. I was cleaning, and had the balcony door open to let some fresh air in. Lupish found a lady bug, and was playing with it for several minutes, when it became apparent that he'd had his fun and was going to eat it. I told him "you shouldn't eat it, they taste yucky." (Lupish understands at least 50% of the english language, and this was simple enough for him) He chose to ignore me, actually giving me a snit before he ate the lady bug. Of course when he tasted it, he spit it out and sat there trying to get the taste off his tongue while I killed myself laughing. He was SO pissed at me that he wouldn't "talk" to me for two days. The death glare I recieved was hilarious. I swear if I'd caught this exchange on camera I'd win AFV with it.

When my can Rufus was about 6 months old, he was clinging to the side of a maple tree in my back yard, eyeing up a squirrel sitting on the branch just about a foot over his head. He was all keyed up and hugging the tree trunk tight, as the squirrel sat there, just above his head, calm as a cloud, eating a nut.
Suddenly Rufus lunged upward at the squirrel... and drove his head soundly into the bottom of the branch the squirrel was sitting on, knocking himself clear out of the tree!!!! Then he shakes himself off, and tries to look all nonchalant the way cats do, like "Yeah, I meant to do that." ;D
It was pretty funny, glad I was there to see it.

I agree, Manic. These are great pet stories. Like you guys, I have my own eco zone of cats, dogs, parrot, goldfish the size of a koi and the doves I raise (30+). They all do silly things that make me laugh. But this is a parrot story...a midget parrot: a green cheek conure. Tito is an alarm bird...has taken on similar guard duties as the dogs. His screech is earsplitting and scares the hell out of anyone around. When he does it the dogs come running and barking like" What?! What?! Where is it?!"
One night when things were too peaceful for Tito (aka'boring')...he started his alarm shriek for no obvious reason. The dogs came flying ...barks blazing. Suddenly I hear Tito barking with them! He now considers this great fun and does it regularly...shriek and then merrily join in barking at nothing with the dogs! Pretty funny!
