Could you ping the kitty lovers for me?

PING

Major mistake at step 3. Just leave the cat in the wardrobe until the present is wrapped.

My step-mom died at this time 10 years ago. She had three cats at the time. About a month later, my dad called me late one night, vey upset. One of the cats was missing. They were indoor/outdoor cats, and he assumed a coyote had a kitty dinner.

By the next week, I hadn't heard any update. He informed me that the next day, the MIA kitty was found in his skivvy drawer, were she had appartently hid the day before.

They're just such helpful critters aren't they? Always wanting to make sure you get things done right and all.

I dont know which is worse, the cat that helps wrap presents or the dog that helps fold laundry.

That doesn't work at my house. If the cat is on the other side of a closed door, I get to hear him pawing it, then I may hear meows or see a front leg stretched under the door.

I trick mine. I leave the door ajar. She thinks she's hiding (clever kitty!) instead of being trapped.

We have a cat that likes to get into open drawers. She did this one day, without my knowledge, as I was putting socks away in a drawer under the bed. Soon I heard meowing. Both my husband and I were certain she was shut in the basement which was only accessible from outside. We kept listening for the meowing and finally found her.

A door ajar is an invitation to enter the room for my fat cat.

Of course that strategy backfires when it's the linen closet....I get cat fur in the bath towels.

...I get cat fur in the bath towels.

you make that sound like a problem.

[Overtaxed]

Well it is when you reach for a towel to dry yourself off with and end up covered with cat fur.

People are so used to my cat accentuated wrapping technique. No bow and cat-scratched paper.

[MEG33]

Cats think wrapping paper is for them,empty Christmas boxes,emptied for them and tissue paper is just right for a bed!

[Lady Jag]

Empty boxes and the wrapping paper that was stripped off of them are strewn all over the living room and will remain until the cats are finished with them. It's a tradition.
