And if you die in your house alone they will eat you. Starting with the fleshy bits like lips and ears...
opps.. wrong thread.Correct thread.
They dream of eating the soft flesh from your body... they can only get away with it when you are dead.
I dunno. Cats aren't really scavengers, are they?
I mean, I'm sure they would eat us if it was the only thing around, but I think they'd rather hunt something and let's face it, my cat is not going to successfully hunt me anytime soon. I'm just bigger and possibly craftier.

This is why they wait for you on the stairs while you're holding a basket of laundry.

Cats (for the most part) don't like the smell of citrus... or menthol/mint for that matter.
I sprayed a winning combo of lemon and peppermint oil on my Christmas tree and on some felt ornaments, and none of the cats would go near it (except the little shit that I was trying to keep away - he was deterred for 22.7 seconds).
I think that the sensitivity varies from cat to cat. Jayne isn't bothered much by citrus, but I think that his sense of smell is sub-par (at least by cat standards). Zoe, on the other hand, looks at me like the orange I'm eating is a close relative of her's, and I am a monster with its blood on my fingers.
I'm also pretty sure that Jayne would at least wait a little bit before gently nibbling at my corpse, while Zoe would jump right in. I'm reminded of this every morning when she nips at my arm to wake me up--
Or check to see if I'm dead, I'm not sure which.

Because it's a small step from opposable thumbs to being able to eviscerate anything you want....Which is why I would never want a monkey for a pet. I'm quite sure all they want is to kill you in your sleep.
many a night i've awoken to the cat sitting on the nightstand next to the bed staring at me. i'd like to think that his thoughts are nothing but benevolent.

That's happened to me before. One of my cats will pretend to be asleep and put one of his paws over his face....but if you look closely you can tell he's staring at you. He'll do this for over an hour too...

lol! Imagine if Bear's little friend had opposable thumbs on bone marrow night. Hook it, grab it, eat it before Bear had a chance.

I'm pretty sure my cats dream about sleeping.Yes. This is what my cat dreams about, I'm sure.
He probably also dreams about me, and moths. An unbeatable combo.
Does anyone else's pet have things it doesn't like the smell of? When I have the smell of any kind of citrus on my hands, my cat gets visibly angry. He is very insulted that citrus exists, I guess.
mine too! She really hates the smell of citrus - particularly oranges and grape fruit. Ginger, fresh, is another. She also hates the scent of small children and is noticeably pissy when we come home with that new baby smell.
