When you have this many cats...

It would be great eating if you mistook them as a plate! It never ceases to amaze me where I find the little furry fiends! I think they take great joy in finding spots where when I find them I'll jump out of my skin. They have hidden under laundry, in cupboards, on shelves in the bathroom behind the bathroom door, in the dryer (and washer) and I've even found them in drawers where there was no possibility of them getting into them. The most fun was when Willy curled up on top of the fridge among the stuffed toys. I was doing something in the fridge and I felt something pull my hair. I jumped sky high, and when I landed I went back to work in the fridge. Then something pulled my hair again. I jumped again but couldn't find what was pulling my hair. Finally the third time there was a kitty face peeking down at me, I swear that he was laughing at me! He loves doing the "reach out and grab" thing. It's so cute because he will kind of tilt his head to the right, with his eyes wide open and a little smile on his face. He'll give a little "yeow?" and then when I start to walk off again he'll grab me again. I think a lot of it is because he wasn't popular with the granddaughters. He wasn't a "cute" kitten, Khuay on the other hand was not only cute but he was a real character too. So Willy was ignored by the girls. I reached the point that I couldn't stand it and I took over with him giving him the extra love and attention he so desperately needed. He now is my constant companion (he's laying beside me now, and will be in bed with me with his head resting on my ribs) and I am sure he would do anything to protect me. He also has a wicked sense of humor. In the next couple of days I'll post a pix of him. Oh, of course speaking of strange places to find a cat, I find Dinglebeary in the bathroom hamper on a regular basis. It is strange because it is a tip out hamper and there are two doors to that cupboard. I usually find him in there and what baffles me is that he's in the hamper and the cupboard doors are closed.

I think that cats believe that if there is a door, they belong on the other side of it. No matter what door, no matter what time of day. It just so happened that this time it was a cupboard full of dishes. I can imagine one curling up and sleeping on a plate.

That's so funny! He looks like he just woke up! Or maybe he's just half-blinking. I've only got one cat myself, and I've found her in a few strange places but never in the cabinets. I had a friend who found her roomate's cat in the closet and had no idea how she got there! The cat was nice and quiet for most of the afternoon and then just started throwing herself at the door when she couldn't get out. Maybe he did think he'd get an extra snack if he pretended to be a plate.

He looks so comfortable. He probably liked it because he thought no one would bother him. I never had a cat get in a cabinet, but one of them would get on the counter and open the door and get the marshmellow out. I don't think he ever ate them, (the bag was never opened, just had a lot of holes in it) he just wanted the bag out for some reason!

How many cats do you have? I have three, and two of them do this. The other one (a girl) never gets into any anything or makes an messes. The two boys are constantly trying to mess something up. I think cats get into spaces like that because it makes them feel safe. My cats are nuts about small boxes. I think that for some reason they like small spaces.

I have three tomcats. I didn't castrated them so the have an ichy of mating during these days. I fed up with the annoying meaowing all night so I lock them out of my balcony. Next morning, I couldn't find one of them.... But I'm sure that my balcony has no place to escape.... After a long time searching....My black tom is "mating with the catnip(behind the flower pot)"... My catnip had sperm for breakfast....WTF

Maybe he wanted some "alone time"? My erstwhile mother-in-law just about dropped her drawers one morning when she opened the fridge and the cat jumped out, none worse for wear after spending the night in there.

I've yet to see any of my cats do that. The closest I've seen them doing something like that is they'll get into the linen closet and take a snooze if it's ajar. But I guess if they want to hide or time away from everyone else that's as good of a place as any.

Hi ElicBxn, My cats never get into cupboards at all but one of them is black and she tends to be able to become invisible in little hidey holes all over the house, she seems to shrink to be able to get into the smallest of spaces and I will think she is out and then suddenly she will emerge startling us. huggles. Ellie :D

How can the cats possibly get into the upper cabinets? Have doors been left open, or is there a hole in the wall behind the cabinets?

What a cute cat! It appeared nonchalant when you took a photography of it.It wouldn't have thought its keeper intended to introduce it to so many people.The cat likes sleeping by daylight.It usually goes where it feels quiet and comfortable.There is nothing like the lower cabinet.

Our mother cat really like to stay inside our dad's clothes cabinet..I think cats really like to nap on soft surfaces:p
