Freaked Out Cat Slave

Its been over a week since I could get the dogs out of the backyard and take them for a long walk on the property, they have plenty of running room but they love the wild. Today it was 70 degrees F and I got outside for a couple hours and spooky, the cat, watched me and the dogs from the deck. When I put them back up I went to work with the plants, I put the tomatoes into bigger pots, the ones I had left from last week. The cat found me and followed me in the house, then back out. I added soil to the pots he was standing there watching. I removed a plant, he was there. I planted it he was there. This went on while potting up 7 plants. I asked him was he coming in and he meowed and came on inside, walking back and forth right beside me the whole time. I was wondering what the hell was wrong with him. Finally he was on my nerves and I told him to go lay down, instead he went to the back door and sat. I opened it he went out. He came back in when Tony got home an hour later, I sat with him laying by my feet I would talk to him and he just laid his ears flat. Tony said he was just jealous of the dogs and could smell the dogs on me. Well! he made sure he marked me up with his face scent before going back outside. Freaked out by his behavior.

He's so cute. Maybe he just realized how much he truly loves you.

Tony says he is his cat but the other day he confessed that his cat loves me.

I agree with Tony. Cats will ignore you unless they think you are ignoring them. But I miss not having any around anymore.

@andriaperry I really was attached to Sarah. I miss seeing her there on the porch whenever I visit that house. Seeing her added happiness to my visits. Now I don't even want to go there.

Although I love my animals very much and I rescued each one, I miss the days of freedom when I could throw clothes in the car and stay gone a week.

@bagarad I do recall your blog and the photos about the cats. I am sorry about those cats, seems I am not the only one with a coyote problem.

Maybe he just wanted to be with his mommy He is so beautiful! Here the temperature has warmed up and it’s rainy. It keeps freezing back up at night so my yard is so sloppy trying to take the dog out on.

Like what I wrote in another post, cats are slowly taking over the human race.

They did, long ago...scientists seriously think domesticating humans was the cats' idea, and feral-born alley cat Mackerel proved this might be true. (Both parents were feral; as a kitten Mac started training a human child to bring food scraps to the cat family.)

That may be it. The cat gets more now that he used to because is all the way tame.

This is surely the reason, I have seen most of the time cats being jealous of dogs and other cats.

I'd say Tony was probably right and he just wanted his share of attention.

He sounds quite a character - He probably thinks he owns you, and that you shouldn't take the dogs out
