This post is going to sound like I'm a crazy woman
I am grateful for humor and silly silly animals.
Laying in bed right now trying to do my version of meditation and my cat is acting so silly. Why is it cats don't like it when a bedroom door is closed? She keeps trying to get in my room and hates it when I close any doors in the house - ESPECIALLY the bathroom door. She will just meow the entire time someone is in the bathroom using the shower - for the life of me I don't know why. Once a person exits the bathroom she immediately has to run in the bathroom and investigate it. Why? So bizarre.
*sigh* My crazy gratitude is for this mystery.

silly animals
I have been sober almost 7 years now and if it wasn't for my kitty some days I think I would really lose it. I am 49 single no kids and all my family lives over 3,000 miles away. So other than my kitty and a few close AA friends and of course can't forget God I am pretty much alone in this world. I love my kitty's crazy personality. Just wanted to say I think I am turning into that cat women your mother warned you about lol. Peace & Blessings all

Ima, your post doesnt' sound at all crazy to me!
I get so much entertainment out of my cats and dogs it's hilarious! Often give the cats catnip and laugh til I cry. 
One of my dogs has a habit of 'playing' on the bed after supper/potty time. He'll jump around like he's nuts, messing up the blanket and throwing himself on the bed, then jumping around, barking the whole time.
My animals keep me sane... and they keep me company when I'm not sane!

Our finicky feline does the EXACT same thing and especially when I'm home during the day with her. She follows me around like a lost puppy, uh . . . kitten? We have 2 dogs which are both mutts and 1 cat. I love them as if they were my children and they think they are. Its a special relationship such as yours and your cat.
Oh and by the way, aren't cats and dogs the best meditation teachers ever! Our cat can stare out our sliding glass door off our bedroom for what seems like hours. Sits perfectly still just staring. I've asked her to teach me, but I don't think she believes I'm ready for her secrets yet. She just looks at me and yawns. I also believe I've seen her roll her eyes at me. I swear!
So who is the crazy one around here?

My Pom uses that very same Yoga pose too....even while at the dog-spa being groomed.
I have 3 cats and a small dog, live alone too.....yes, the animals rule the house and I don't mind....they keep me sane too!....I don't much like the cat-racing at 3AM, or yesterday coming home to a water pitcher dumped on the counter, but they argue that it is really my fault and i should just be glad the counter is now washed.

I'm grateful that I can *believe* the fur-children know what i am thinking....and tell your XBF that my cat prefers the bed to be made up a certain way....for his specifications to sleep in comfort all day are very important!

I am so grateful tonight cause little Jack (former foster dog) was licking my hand while I was lovin' up on him. He rarely shows affection that way so I was very flattered.
Thank God for my critters.

LOL, my cats do the same thing!
I think that my cats believe they own the house, the furniture and all the belongings here. And, they let us live here with them so that we can feed them and rub their tummies.
