Things I’ve learned as a kid growing up on a farm #3
1. Throwing cats up in the air is not a good idea. They extend their claws as they are coming down grabbing for a shirt or arm to cling on to. Cat claws hurt. Especially on the face and arms.
2. Cats don’t like bike rides.
3. Cats don’t like the water.
4. Cats don’t like to be thrown into the pond.
5. Surprisingly when cats are thrown into a pond they swim like a dog and do the dog paddle in order to get out.
6. Cats are very forgiving and have bad memories.
7. Cats don’t like to play tag with the garden hose.
8. Cats are very loyal and cuddly. They make great pillows for a little girls head.
9. If you play barber shop and cut a cats whiskers off they loose balance and bump into things.
10. When you place a Tupperware container over a cats head they will go backwards.
11. Cats don’t like it when you put tape on their feet. They will do a crazy dance until they are able to pull it off.
12. Cats also don’t like it when you put tape on their head, whiskers or body. They spaz out until they get the tape off.
13. Cats do get along with dogs. They also like to snuggle and sleep with each other.
14. Cats are very patient when you dress them up in doll clothes, although afterwards they look humiliated and annoyed.
I love my cat, “Kitty”. Very original name for a 5 year old. Kitty lived until I was 21 years old. I miss you Kitty!
