Hi, my name is Clovis. I am a tortoise shell mix. I should be able to play this guitar because I have thumbs on both of my front paws. I am just too tired to play it now...(yawn...meep...meep).
Meow everyone, I'm here again, Miu the Spanish Cat!
Humans are confused when they assume we only like cat food, meat, perhaps cheese and sauces... Gourmet cats like us can also appreciate vegetables, but not the kind of forage humans usually stack in their fridges. We are speaking of delicious herbs, healthy for the well functioning of our digestive tract, or easier to say, to go to the litter box.
For harvesting, we must find a good plant in the surroundings. Living in a small flat reduces the choices to get them. We may find pots in high places, behind closed windows or doors, the yard... Humans know their high culinary value and hide them from us, so persist! With a loudly "meow, meow, meow...", maybe even your human will reach you the pot to make you shut up.
If your human hasn't got them look between the neighbors, and be sure you don't get caught! Their plants are a good reason as other to start territorial conflicts between them. If anyone wants to blame you, try you have seen a mole making his house in the pot, or a worm plague devouring the plant... something credible to get some distraction, because it's now when the human notices your paw prints in the soil... Run!
Once you have it, you need the appropriate kitchen furniture to make a good cooking. And there are as many ways of preparing herbs as kinds of them, it's your choice. With the plant in the photos, I used my favorite stool to jump over the plant once an again, I chewed the herb to extract all the juice, and finally made some spaghettis of it. After working so hard I went to get some cat food... I deserved a little dessert. ; )
Bon apetit!

... you can always annoy your human with this fantastic trick (which requires 3 cats!); form a triangle and watch how cat litter and hairballs will mysteriously appear in this catangular area!

My name is Miu and I'm a Spanish cat. I live with my humans at the beautiful city of Salamanca, and as you can see, I live very well... see my round (full of food) orange belly? All thanks to my efforts training my humans.
Today I'm going to teach you useful lessons about the bed.
If you want to sleep in a comfortable bed, the first point is to be the first. When the evening reaches a reasonable hour abandon the salon, so your humans start to wonder where you have gone. A bit of concern doesn't harm anyone.
Little time after, they will show through the door to feel relief when seeing you. Of course... I've gone to get the best place in the bed. Where did you think I was going? You have deprived me from my liking to cat-girls. *Snorts*
Second point, is to choose strategically the place. The choice depends on the effect you want, a corner or low part if you want to share the bed with the couple of humans, or in the middle if you want just one of them.
Getting the bed for you alone is a difficult task, human beds are too big to cover it all with our paws. In the first option both humans will arrange themselves around you (be aware they don't knock you over to the ground while moving the blankets). In the second option, the first of the humans will throw himself in the bed, leaving the problem to the second.
Third point, you must have gone slept (or at least pretend you are). Now it's very important to be the most cute kitty in the world, see the example photos? With the previous concern, this leaves your human to feel truly guilty for removing you from the bed.
If you follow well this steps, in a few days you will win your rights to have a place at bed, and your she-human sleeping in that damned cat-basket instead of you. The he-human is a bit tough to train, but nothing is impossible.
Got it? ;)

•• Tactic of the sleeping cat. I have the tip of my tongue out to make it more believable, while I watch through my almost closed eyes.
•• Here I'm making the cute kitty. Notice I'm spreading tail and paws to occupy as much bed surface as possible.
We thought you would be interested in knowing that after lots of purring and discussion, we have decided to have a try at Catolympics 08! Of course we have chosen the discipline we do best: "synchronized sleeping" !!!
I enclose two pictures featuring everyday long rehearsals. We are trying really hard, but there´s still a long way to go (especially for Nessie, who sometimes gets the choreography wrong).
Love from the South,
Gremlin

I had been wondering about this strange thing hanging on the wall for some time, and finally I just couldn't stand it any longer. So I had my human, Tina, take it down for me. Well, as it turned out, it wasn't all that interesting. Kinda useless, if you ask me!
How to help yourself to a bite to eat - well, she left it on the floor!
There I was absolutely starving after one of the lady members of my staff (she likes to be called Mummy) decided to have a lie in as it was Sunday consequently my breakfast was late (no more mice for her!).
Being a bit dippy she put the can on the floor while she answered the phone – well I ask you - how could I resist?
I did only have the one piece though (or maybe it was two pieces) before she came back. I can’t see how she can complain because it keeps my fur lovely and shiny and my teeth and gums are really healthy. She has to use all sorts of gunk on her fur to make it shine, I think she’s just jealous.
Hi! Nice to meet you and thanks a lot for your only-for-cats web page. My name is Gremlin. I am a almost 2 years old male cat, who lives together with 2 brothers, 1 sister, and 2 humans in a tiny village 50km away from Madrid.
My mother(a wild cat)brought us through the kitchen window when we were a month old. She decided that we were to adopt these humans, their fridge, TV, computer, lap top, sofas, bed,...oh,well :-))
I have always been very interested in human behaviour and since my arrival I have improved my methods towards a proper communication of any wish I happen to have.
I enclose a picture that shows the progress achieved so far. My male human(Andrés)y very thankful and calls this "to do catting" (a verb shortly to be included in all dictionaries :-)
Here is my piece of Useful Advice:
1) Wait until your human is lying on the sofa
2) Announce yourself: "Prrr!!" and jump.
3) Make yourself at home on his legs
4) Your tummy will be stroken within 5 seconds
5) Your human is not allowed to move,fetch anything, answer the phone,etc while stroking is going on.
6) When you´ve had enough, stand up on your human´s legs, stretch nonchalantly, announce that session is over: " Prrr!" and jump down without a back glance.
easy, isn´t it? :-))

My name is Domino and I am 12 weeks old. My human is Lorna. She takes good care of me, but I don’t like it when she goes outside to play. See I am an indoor cat because I don’t like the 'great' outdoors…
The best thing to do is destroy her shoes so she can’t leave the house!!
How to get your humans to take your picture: strike a pose!
hi, our names are charlotte and patches.
the beautiful long haired tuxedo is charlotte and the cool tabby/white cat is patches.
our humans, kristin and jose, saved us from our local shelter and boy are we glad to be out of there! there are so many cats there and it's nice to be living with 2 people that really love us.
anyway, we've noticed that to get a lot of attention from our humans, all we have to do is strike a pose, or sit by each other and act cute. they just snap picture after picture! we're glad to have found this site, and we will be sure to post some more pics if thats ok with all the other adorable cats!!

"A (December) day in the life of... ME!"
Or
"How to pass the time while waiting for christmas"
Your patience really gets challenged when you're waiting for Christmas and all the nice presents you're gonna get. This is how I make time pass a little faster:
First I built a snowman - I don't show it on this picture, but I was actually quite proud of the result!
Then I help my humans with the Christmas ornaments on the tree. They put them on and I pulled them off again. That way I helped my humans pass the time as well. I'm such a good and clever cat!
And finally I put MY presents for my humans under the tree. I had saved this lollipop for my human family since I found it lying on the sidewalk outside out house about 8 months ago. I am so considerate!

How to look your best - let your human dress you up
Hi, I'm Sylvester, I am a cat that enjoys dressing up.
This is a beautiful picture of me, which the humans (one of my owners Mhari, age 10) took of me... I must say she has taken my best side - what do you think?
And here's another purrrfect picture of me in another of my outfits. Merry christmas!
You often need to be totally invisible when you are outdoors. Either because you - for some reason - wanna hide from your humans or maybe because you wanna sneak up on a bird or mouse or whatever. Anyway, you need CAMOUFLAGE.
Look at this picture of me. Yes, I'm there! I know you can't see me, because I'm in my camouflage outfit, but if you look closely, you'll see two leaves lying on the glass. I'M UNDER THEM! Amazing, isn't it? Two leaves and your invisible! And a good thing about this camouflage outfit is, that it's free and easy to find.
Sometimes you just wanna be left alone, you know? Not talked to, not played with, not photographed, not ANYTHING!
Well, as you can see from these photos (okay, I still haven't quite figured out how to escape that darn camera-thing!), I have developed quite a skill for hiding!
So when you want to be alone, hide in in pots, drawers, behind plants or pose as a lamp. It USUALLY works!
Here you can warn your fellow felines about disgusting cat litter that smells of cheap human perfume, or give them good advice on how to scare off annoying little children that insist on chasing you around the house and pulling your tail, or you can tell all the other clicker-cats about how YOU clicker train YOUR human to give you more treats.
