Can cats who have never been outside (only Sophie is the exception), get cabin fever? Well, if such a thing is contagious, they got it from me.
I was mostly home bound for two weeks when my car was in the body shop, The entire time I felt kind of discombobulated...unable to relax, settle down, and feeling lost. Then again, my cats could have been behaving oddly ALL along, and I only noticed it now when I was home so much. :-)
Miki's favorite thing to do was to stagger around on my work table, inside a plastic bag which he always found, sometimes dragging the liner out of a trash can. His choosing my the table in my studio where I was working added a touch of drama.:-)
Santino, my golden chocolate child who loves everyone, has begun asserting himself. It looks like he thinks he should be Number ONE Cat. Oh, and what a bratty look he has on his face when he does this! Miki calls him on it, Rudy screams like a baby, and Sophie doesn't mind. SHE is probably urging him on! And, speaking of Sophie....She has gone from rubbing up against the boys to backing up in front of them, presenting her rear end for them to smell. They are not interested. I can imagine them muttering "Weirdo!".

Rudy, who has never groomed others, is now attempting to wash everyone! Oh, he tries so hard...but, it's obvious he doesn't like it! He gives a few licks, stops, shakes his head slightly, starts again, makes a face, and walks away. Miki and Santino are happy to bathe him anyway....maybe he'll get the hang of it.
