Things My Cat Hates/Loves... A List



Warning:  Crazy Cat Person Post Ahead

Ernie The Multi Toed Wonder Cat continues to both delight and horrify.  Much like you would create a baby book for your offspring, I feel that I should catalog his current loves and dislikes in the hope (please god) that someday I will look back and say "Oh, remember how cute it was when (inset annoying thing that he does here)?"  That day has not come.



So, things Ernie loves...

It's a sign of how adorable I think Ernie is that I'm posting a crazy bedhead/no makeup picture of myself.
  • Toilet Paper
  • Shredding Toilet Paper
  • Knocking The Toilet Paper Down From Where I've Tried to Put It Out Of His Reach
  • Opening Bathroom Cabinets to Find Toilet Paper Rolls
  • His Toys
  • Dropping His Toys In His Water Bowl
  • Dropping His Toys In His Water Bowl and  Then Fishing Them Out
  • Dropping His Toys In His Water Bowl, Fishing Them Out and Dropping Them On My Face Whilst I Sleep
  • Watching TV
  • Meowing Angrily at the TV (Do NOT Get Him Started on the Republican Primaries.  God, could Mitt BE more out of touch with his feline constituents?)
  • Hair Ties
  • Opening Drawers to Find Hair Ties
  • Taking Hair Ties Off of My Head At Night
  • Taking Hair Ties Off of My Head and Then Dropping Them In His Water Bowl
  • Taking Hair Ties Off of My Head , Dropping Them In His Water Bowl and Then Fishing Them Out
  • Taking Hair Ties Off of My Head , Dropping Them In His Water Bowl, Fishing Them Out and Then Dropping Them On My Face Whilst I Sleep
  • Running Laps In The House
  • Running Laps In The House In The Middle of The Night that Culminate In A Giant Leap On Your Head
  • Taking Naps...On Your Head, Face or Neck
  • Climbing Christmas Trees
  • Jumping Out of Christmas Trees While You Walk Innocently By and Inciting Unintentional Urination
  • The Crappy Diet Cat Food That Our Other (Festively Plump) Cat Eats

Things he hates...
  • Jesus and Angels (I can only assume this as both a Baby Jesus and angel ornament went missing at Christmas  and were later found...destroyed)
  • Fans (the cooling kind, not the adoring kind)
  • Water In His Water Dish (much better if it's all on the floor)
  • Getting His Extra Toes Caught On Things
  • Anyone Who Is Not Me (this I get)
  • The Very Tasty and Fatty Kitten Food That He Eschews In Favor of Diet Cat Food
  • Accidentally Getting Locked In The Garage All Night When He Sneaks Out There Unbeknownst To Anyone And Being Forced to Sleep In The Cold
  • Being Forced To Wear Costumes (luckily, our other cat - Zoe, takes the brunt of that job)
