Mystery of how cats lap is revealed

Interesting John :thumb: although our cat uses a straw. (Unfortunately I can't back it up with a pic or video).:D

 

Well, this'll not surprise you either - apparently cats have a 'soliciting' purr for when he wants to be fed!

Cats don't have "owners". They have "staff".:hehe: While Holly keeps killing every mouse/rat in the area I'm happy to be her staff.:gnthb:

 

Or as the other saying goes, dogs have owners, cats have servants.
We definitely are staff and servants, you could say thaey have us 'licked'.:lollol:

 

My cat jumps up and sits in front of the kettle in the mornings, you can't do anything until you have fed him first, which of course is the idea!!!! k-l

My cat had to have all his teeth removed a year ago, so he now relies on lapping his food as well as liquids. He manages surprisingly well.

I once had a cat who learned to knock on the front door when he wanted to come in. It was permanently covered in cat prints where he had made flying leaps to reach the door knocker.
