Under Siege?
Posted by Lynnster on April 12, 2008
Readers will recall my youngest cat, Tojo, the Psycho Cat, who was apparently my consolation prize for having my car destroyed in a car accident last year (that wasn’t my fault).
Tojo, as many will also recall, has no friends among the other felines in the house (nor the canines for that matter, but they generally pay no attention to the cats anyway). In lieu of having friends, he found all my Beanie Babies, Teenie Beanies, and other generic beanies last year - all dogs and cats with the exception of one flamingo, who seems to be the more mistreated of the bunch - and has made them his friends. They are generally scattered all over the bed back there where he spends most of his time, sometimes on the floor (usually the flamingo and the UT clothes-wearing Smokey Dog are the ones that wind up on the floor).
My friends and colleagues on Twitter witnessed this in real time yesterday…
First, I walked into the bedroom only to find the Beanies lined up almost perfectly down one side of the bed, against the wall. Odd.
A little later, I looked in there again to discover that ALL of them had been moved, now up against the (normally closed) door.
Later on, they were back on the bed in single file again.
I slept back there last night, and when I woke up, they were scattered all over the bed as usual.
Now they’re back lined up against the wall again.
What is this little feline freak up to?

Your cat is weird. Diabolically weird. Something is being plotted… like someday you’ll come home and find the rest of your cats and dogs lined up single file in that room. Kinda freaky…

Have you witnessed the cat doing this? I think it’s ghosts!

No, I haven’t seen it for myself. But now that you bring that up, the kinda disturbing thing is that if indeed it’s ghosts, they’re probably cat ghosts. Seriously.
