People are smarter than cats.
Cats do not have itineraries. Their minds are not capable of such a complicated thought process.
Cats are more persistent.
But people are smarter than cats.

Our out door cat can be a pain but we don't let him out at night intentionally (too many owls in the neighborhood) so we do encourage him to be outside during the day. And we can do two door separation but he's learned to throw himself against things downstairs too which sometimes wakes us up. It was pretty bad in January (cat mating season) and now that spring has sprung it's getting weird again. and he is neutered but still, it's my opinion he has a girl friend, maybe a bobcat.

You know, sometimes the eyes are open and I still wonder if she is awake.

They will rattle the door, shaking it back and forth. Luckily, my cats don't do that, but many cats do.

Tie a sock, or a robe belt around their tummies. If you use a robe belt, you can tie one cat to each end. That is hilarious.
To: peacebaby
I'm pretty low maintenance, so my cats were adults before the first time they encountered a hair dryer. Boy was that funny! They freaked out and then tried to "slap" the hot air flow!
To: iPod Shuffle
It did not take long for my cat Peaches, that lived on my sailboat with me, to stop doing what ever she was doing when I started opening the hatch over the bunk. This was especially true if she knew the water was going to be cold when she went flying out.

If I remember to feed them right before I go to bed, I'm usually okay. My Boy sometimes wants some attention in the AM, and will climb on me and start kneading. I just roll over and let him give me a back rub!

Gopher? I had a cat named Badger. The name fit.
