I have had several cats who will carry an object in their mouth as they walk around the house, making that characteristic "mewing" sound that mama kitties make.<BR/><BR/>It may be a protective expression, or what I am thinking may be a "possessive" communication.<BR/><BR/>It is really interesting that when she is "caught in the act", so to speak, she drops it and feigns ignorance about the whole thing.<BR/><BR/>Jokneadstoknowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07366628499965281614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502872387219876077.post-80476647945015087372008-01-17T06:37:00.000-08:002008-01-17T06:37:00.000-08:00My Gracie (gray dsh, 6 yrs. old) has a red fuzzy b...My Gracie (gray dsh, 6 yrs. old) has a red fuzzy ball that she reacts to as if it is her "baby." It's the only toy she will actually play with. Sometimes we hear her "talking" to this ball in her mommy voice, usually she has the ball in her mouth while she's talking to it. But if she sees anyone actually looking at her when this happens, she immediately drops the ball and acts as if she's never seen it before. Where did THAT baby come from?<BR/><BR/>The thing is that she actually was spayed while pregnant just before we adopted her. Is she calling for her babies? We don't know, but it's heartbreaking to hear her meowing around this red ball in her mouth.Skybirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06198437070509022058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502872387219876077.post-81924241734559407632008-01-15T14:56:00.000-08:002008-01-15T14:56:00.000-08:00HAHAHAHA...this was sooooo funny...what a hoot!You...HAHAHAHA...this was sooooo funny...what a hoot!<BR/><BR/>You made my day!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502872387219876077.post-85261309690739400922008-01-15T04:32:00.000-08:002008-01-15T04:32:00.000-08:00I swear, Lucyfur looks SO much like my Wheezel...s...I swear, Lucyfur looks SO much like my Wheezel...save the few extra lbs Wheez has around her middle. My cats don't seem to have a 'favorite' toy...except that Mouse loves the days I tear from the calendars daily, and ball up...then throw. (Of course, then Shredder (chester) "saves" us from the paper ball monster by killing the paper ball and leaving it's remains proudly all over the room where it met its demise. Ches, Mouse and Wheez love the fishing pole toy, and Mouse will scream at me every morning (and I mean SCREAM) until I unwind it and play with them. :) What a group!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
