LOL ! So it's not just Hank who does this then either.... No bin is safe in this house, i've considered nailing them to floor... he goes hunting through them looking for muffin cases

Although I fully appreciate your creativity, my underwear is not a cat toy and does not need to be dragged and dispensed around various points of the house.
I note that you have invented a fun game for us to play, but really I don't much enjoy spending every minute of the day on my hands and knees, fishing your toys out from under the washing machine/sofa/fridge/wardrobe etc.

I dearly love our cuddles in bed, but really you are very small at the moment and shouldn't need to take up half of the bed space, I notice you only ever try it on my boyfriends side of the bed and therefore I believe that you know I would not tolerate such space-hogging. You are not a human and therefore you do not need to lie under the cover with your head on the pillow.

I appreciate how cleanly you are and am very grateful that you religiously use your litter tray, I do sometimes wonder though about the timing of your poopy times as it daily seems to fall upon the time I take my first mouthful of breakfast (the smell of your doody does tend to over-power any other flavour) and once I have snuggled in bed and have just turned out the light to sleep. Would you so kindly consider reconsider these timings to be more friendly to my needs?!

Oh how I have loved this thread & so pleased Bethy-boo that you have had underwear problems,having had my knickers {clean I would like to add} cited in other threads I decided to leave them out of this one.....

Hmmm the underwear thing is somewhat disturbing. Poif doesn't seem to care what state it's in...although only taken from the dirty laundry a couple of times thankfully. But it is slightly embarrassing trying to explain to someone why my bra is draped over the sofa/on the stairs/in the kitchen!!

Erm I will admit to leaving out the undies thing as well but glad not to be alone and that Buddy is not a secret pervert

Eww Buddy think should have been No.1 .....

Used cotton buds MUST remain in the bin. I can not re-itterate this enough! :0

Further to this one..........the hair out taken out of my hairbrush also should remain in the bin!!

My dad's bald head does not need 'washing' everytime he visits. His fingers aren't there for you to put in your mouth either
Our visitors don't need help to untie their laces
You don't need to pull the carpet up by the door - it doesn't make it open
You don't need to 'wash' the windows when you've dipped your paws into the sink
You can't catch the flies/birds/bats that are outside so stop trying
Don't run behind the TV and start chewing the cables just because we've sat down to eat and aren't paying you any attention!
The pictures on the walls do not need adjusting - they are straight

Rasputin does it too...

The white Egyptian cotton sheets on the bed do not need to be decorated with poo-footprints. Whilst I appreciate your artistic endeavours, I would prefer my bedding to be 'poo-free'. This also applies to my pillow. Please do not sneak up in the night, undercover of darkness, and wipe your feet on it. Thank you and goodnight!
