Feline Mysteries

Some of the greatest mysteries in the world, which may never be solved, are often presented by the fascinating behavior of our beloved felines. The solution to one of the greatest puzzles, however, concerning how cat fur can wind up on the inside of one's clothing is clearly demonstrated and solved by this photo featured on the Los Angeles Times.

When I ran across this enchanting one, "Something up our sleeve", captured by Blebby of her cat determined to share the ownership of her clothing, it reminded me how common it is that cats can find themselves in some rather interesting positions.

Since cats are often engaged in the quest to locate the most appealing objects in which to hide out we really should secretly monitor their behavior to keep them safe. Of course we must never let on that we know about their hideaways so we have to maintain the appearance that they are pulling the wool over our eyes.

If you are as interested as I am to learn more about some of the more common feline behavioral mysteries similar to their strong attraction to boxes in which to sit or what prompts them to enjoy hanging out in sinks or bathtubs, you can find some delightful photos and videos of felines to tickle your funny bone.

The mystery I would like to see solved is where the cats hide when I've looked ABSOLUTELY everywhere yet, one of them remains missing, only to come out a bit later with a very sly look on his or her face.

My place isn't that big and there's not a lot of places they CAN hide, but I guess they know of a few that I don't! Ain't that just like a cat? haha

A couple of my cats love small boxes, the smaller the better.
I have another cat that loves to hang out on the end of bannister and falls asleep there. Yes, she has fallen off it at least time time that I know of. But you know cats they can for the most part right themselves before actually hitting the floor.
Cats who can figure them out?

The best cat toy in the world are those long cat tunnels. Saki loves to run and hide in them, as if I dont know where he is...especially when his tail is sticking out. ;-)
