The story where a cat gets tangled in a ball of yarn is really interesting. It ends up looking like a furry, moving yarn monster. Another interesting one is when a cat tries to steal food from a dog's bowl while the dog is sleeping. The cat tiptoes over, but the dog wakes up at the last second and the cat has to make a hasty retreat.
There's a cat that used to perch on top of the TV. One day, during a really exciting football game, it jumped right in front of the screen as if it wanted to join in. And then there was a cat that managed to open the refrigerator door by itself and helped itself to some leftover chicken. It was quite a sight to see the cat sitting in the fridge with a piece of chicken in its mouth.
The most interesting part is often the chase. The cat's determination to catch the mouse and the mouse's quick thinking to escape make it exciting. For example, when the mouse uses its environment cleverly like running through a maze of furniture to lose the cat.
The unexpected behaviors of the cats are often the most interesting parts. For example, when a cat does something completely out of the ordinary like trying to ride a toy car that a child has. It's so unexpected and makes for a really funny moment in the story.
Well, I know a story where a cat was so lazy that when it saw a mouse, it just blinked at it. The mouse, thinking the cat was no threat, walked right in front of it. The cat then suddenly swatted at the mouse half - heartedly and missed. The mouse ran away, and the cat just went back to sleep.
There's a story where a cat sees its reflection in the mirror for the first time. It thinks it's another cat and starts to hiss and paw at the mirror, not understanding it's just its own reflection. It's really hilarious to see the cat's reaction as it gets more and more worked up.
One memorable story is when a lady adopted a cat thinking it was a girl. A few weeks later, she found out it was a boy when she took it to the vet for a check - up. The cat's name was already something very girly, but they just kept it and it always made them laugh. Another story is about a family that adopted a cat which loved to steal socks. Every time they did the laundry, they had to search for missing socks all over the house because of the cat. It was really funny but also very endearing.
Often, cats can be really territorial during cat sitting. I once had a cat that hissed at its own reflection in the mirror. It was like it was having a stand - off with an intruder. It would paw at the mirror and meow loudly, thinking there was another cat in the room. It was hilarious to watch.
A rather fascinating cat ghost story involves a cat that haunted a library. Patrons and librarians sometimes noticed a cat - like shadow among the bookshelves. Legend had it that a cat that used to keep the mice away in the library passed away and became a ghost. It seemed to still be on the prowl for any rodents that might damage the books.
My friend has a cat that loves to steal socks. One day, the cat dragged about five socks into its little bed and made a sort of nest out of them. When my friend found it, the cat was curled up in the middle of the sock - nest, looking very content, as if it had found the greatest treasure.
A cat in a parish house used to chase the doves that were seen as a symbol of the Holy Spirit in Christian symbolism. But instead of getting angry, the priest saw it as a funny play between nature's creatures. He would often joke that the cat was just having a friendly race with the doves. It was a very light - hearted and memorable story in the parish.
