Got a slight scuffle of snow overnight. Nothing big, but some of the streets are a little icy.

By the way, I love your icon/avatar. My cat's been known to do that. Lol.

We got enough snow on Friday to get a delay. It was such an off day. I fed my students cookies and cocoa. Lol

Thanks. Mine too!

Cookies and cocoa sounds really good right about now!.

I'll hear my cat in the bathroom doing something in the middle of the night. I investigate and he has the toilet paper all on the floor and he just sits in the middle of it like "What did I do?".

**Melis** · 01-10-2010, 12:17 PM

LOL! Cats are so cute. My cats love to knock everything over.

Barrybgb · 01-10-2010, 01:54 PM

They are. Mine will jump on counters and push stuff with it's paw until it falls over and he's like "Okay, that's that. On to the next!."

**Melis** · 01-10-2010, 05:08 PM

Same here! Mine do that, too. They do that especially when they want me to get up and feed them.

Mine has a thing with wanting to sit on the bathroom floor while your taking a shower. If your about to get in the shower, he will cry outside the door wanting in.

Mine has to come into the bathroom with me. He lays on the heating vent and waits for me. Lol.

Melis, my cat is always up early and I hear him wandering around the house. He'll meow sometimes to tell me to get up.

It's fun sharing cat stories. Everyone I know has a dog. They don't appreciate cast like we do. Hee.

We had a dog for 13 years, and I was a dog person. Then we had to put him down in 1999. Around 2001, I got a cat. Well, "I" didn't get him. He was given to me by my sister who thought I needed a friend. We had cats when I was real little, but I was so young to really remember or bond with them. This cat became my buddy and he was just attached to my hip. Sadly, he had to be put down 4 years later. A year after that, the same sister got me my current cat and, just like the previous one, just became my shadow. His name is Riley, but I always call him Bubba or Boo Boo. Lol.

Aww. Cute story. My family had a dog, but I never liked dogs. Never paid attention to it. After it passed, we never got another. My mom doesn't like dogs, so she wasn't having another one.

Ive always been a cat person but we've had some really cute dogs in the family too. Im an animal lover.. Ive always had many bunnies, gerbils, hamsters, turtles, and birds too.

Barrybgb · 01-12-2010, 11:09 AM

I'm just an animal lover too. I love my cats and and I love my dogs. Lol.

**Melis** · 01-12-2010, 03:49 PM

I like other animals, but I've always hated dogs. We weren't allowed to have rabbits or hamsters. My mom thought the cats wouldn't like them. lol
