So I'm going to tell you about my cat Psycho. We got her at the SPCA 2 years ago. She loves to run from the top floor of our home down three flights of stairs to the front door, then back up again. She sees her favourite toy on the floor and she'll sit on it as if it's going to escape from her. She takes running leaps at the bathroom sinks so she can have fresh people water instead of the cat water that (yuck) sits on the floor. When I'm alone and my husband is out of town, she follows me all over the house and never leaves my side, especially when I'm posting. When I cry she sits close and puts up with much more clutching and petting and doesn't mind getting my tears all over her fur. She likes me to tickle the end of her nose. She starts to drool when I get out the nail clippers for her front paws because she knows she gets a treat at the end. She doesn't particularly like to be held but puts up with it from me. My husband, on the other hand, can pick her up like a baby, swing her around (we now know our living room really is large enough to swing a cat in), and he can take a hold of her entire head and turn it this way and that like a faucet... and she purrs.
OK, that's enough for me.
