Hey guys. Trying out something new. Once in a while we'll post a quick
question for you guys to answer. At the end of the day we'll randomly
select one of the comments and will send them one of our new books!
This time around we're offering up our new Wet Cat book (which you can
find in our store here ). It couldn't be easier!
Today's question: What is your cat doing RIGHT NOW?! Or if you're not around your cat, what do you suspect it's up to?
Post the picture on your site! Just copy and paste:

catena Meg's in her basket, sleeping and looking incredibly cute.
Joe's upstairs, just hanging out.
Lincoln's chasing a squiggle around.
Canuck Cat I'm at work but I suspect Penny is watching birds at the bird feeder, Casey is eating, and Cleo is sleeping on my bed.
Carmen Mona is beating up lil Kat. She is jumping on the air conditioner, she is batting a dust bunny around the house, looling for nip or she and Lil Kat are taking a nap. That's just the next half hour.
StinkyFuzzyTaters I'm guessing, Stinky is curled up asleep on the bed, taters is sleeping on her back on the livingroom floor in the sun, and fuzzy is taking a dump all over himself like he did last night, which earned him a nice torturous bath.
shadowfire127 Rascal, my new kitten, is probably playing with his new toys or harassing his new brothers. Domino is most likely watching over Rascal and waiting for me to get home. Frogger is probably hiding under the bed or in his box trying to avoid Rascal. Pesky little brofurs!
AMP smokey is purring on my lap, waiting for the favored human to come home.
va_cat_mom Peach Pie is laying underneath a box top here by my feet. Nikki, well, she's been a little too quiet for a little too long. I probably don't want to know what she's doing.
whiskerflick Trixie is probably lying on the bed on her Purr Pad, soaking up the sunshine and reaching out for a really good streeetch!
Half Step from Crazy Zelda's asleep on her blanket on the leather couch in the study. Slacker.
tignlu Tigger is sleeping on the back of the couch with her favorite blanket. LouLou is running around and climbing all the door jambs like she just got a hit of the nip. In 5 min she will fall asleep in front of the window on her perch.
kitty mama Right Now Mork is tormenting Sir Ian, Mindy is asleep on my desk (hijacked the conputer spot) and Sybil is licking my arm and grabbing my hands for pettings
sarahpickle Pickle is going through a stage where he doesn't want to come inside. He sprints in the front door, walks only on furniture ( doesn't want to touch the floor) grabs a bite out of his bowl and sprints straight out the back door. I imagine he is kneading his sheepskin thingy in the shed and I am deeply ashamed to say, probably air humping. I think I am the only person on the planet that has a humping cat. :(
MsCatmattress I'm still at work - but I'm fairly sure he's waking up from his day-long nap on my bed. He'll lumber over to the food dish and see it's empty, then he'll amble over to the window seat, and climb up to keep an eye out for me. Whenever I come home, he's in that front window.
MsCatmattress And Sarahpickle, you're not alone. My cat humps his "girlfriend," a big furry slipper. It's just...wrong.
mooseonski Blimbleton is half asleep on the kitchen floor, stretched out on his back, occasionally flexing his claws, murmuring, or flipping his tail to (further) demonstrate his pride in the two fuzzy balls due to be removed ten days from today.
catmommy9 Pumpkin is sitting by the front door, crying for this Daddy. Catdaddy doesn't come home until around 7PM, it's only ten of six now...guess the little fool hasn't gotten used to the time change yet!
The others are all sleeping.
j_mae I suspect that Niles is sleeping in his basket at home. OR he could be opening drawers and climbing into them.
thegrimtuesday Oliver is laying on my chest looking for a bit of shirt to nurse and forcing me to type with one hand. Lucy has put on her invisibility fur and is most likely sitting in the middle of the carpet, being invisible.
Rachel94 I suspect that while I am taking a break at work to browse Stuff, Libby is taking a break from her busy day of alternately tormenting my boyfriend and napping studiously to watch "Animal Planet" (a.k.a. our picture window in the living room). I hope she doesn't have to watch re-runs.
Scoots84 Well I am here at school and my cat is at home. Nobody is home right now, so I'm suspecting that Thomas Tomcat is curled up in one of his favorite napping spots which includes: my bed, the couch, or the guest bed. He always goes wherever it's the most comfortable. :)
kim and poe silly little poe poe kitty is running back and forth at warp speed from one room to the other deciding which room has the best view of the birdies outside the window. he is running with his head high and tail too. it's the cutest darn thing you've ever seen in a determined kitteh!!!!!!!!
Lindalu Sleeping! They hate when I'm home on the weekend cause it messes up their day, they can't sleep!
alexiskitty Alexis just left my lap and is now enjoying an afternoon snack.
DominosMomma My kitten, Cassie, is waiting outside the kitchen doorway, invisible to my dog, Domino, waiting for her to walk out so she can pounce at her face. She's in full on low-crawl tiger stealth attack mode. She's wise for her weeks :)
RockonMom I suspect that Cooper is laying in the kitchen window chirping at birds. and Rockon is laying on our glass coffee table becasue no one is there to tell him to get down.
cuddlecat Punkin just went to check out his supper dish.
LibrarianJessica Holly's just run upstairs, probably going to nap.
Berlin My kitties are all licking themselves clean after a delicious dinner of salmon paté. yum :-)
catamist Since I've been home, Pokey has run at warp speed through the house, ricocheting (sp?) off of walls, doors, etc. (the first time we noticed her eyes were different sizes - one bigger, one smaller -we rushed her to the vet. He said she had concussed herself by running into a wall or something, and she would be OK in a couple of days. Now, we don't worry). Our other cat, Comet (her mom's name was Haley....) has spent the time talking to me about stale food, stale water, and in general the discombobulated state of her household.
katuba My cat 'Littles' just walked out of the litter box after eating and is now scratching her feet on the floor. She never stops doing that. Wakes me up at night all the time!
kristina evey is just lounging on the bed and millie is gazing out the window into the dark from the sunroom.
DominosMomma sarahpickle, my cat Diablo back home with my parents is a total humper. He even has a stuffed cat that we call his "humpbaby" because he carries her around the house and humps her every night invariably around 2am, loudly meowing the whole time. His favorite spot is right in front of my parent's doorway :) My dad ended up throwing humpbaby in the attic for several months out of frustration until I found it on accident... Diablo acted like she never left!
sullyandzeke Somehow a cricket has made it's way into my living room - which is alarming in itself - and has awakened Zeke from laying belly-up in front of the fireplace. Now Zeke is playing with the cricket while Sully is watching patiently from the leather chair he has claimed as his own. Oh, now the cricket's "playing dead" and Zeke is headed back to the fireplace. Another day in the life of Sully and Zeke...
kywildcat Katrina is watching the leaves fall from the tree just outside the bay window. Gets excited everytime one hits the window.
katiepaw54 Both Tiger and Daisy are in the home office with me...milling about waiting for dinner and also keeping close tabs on me just in case I open the desk drawer and pull out the NIP !!
Sillygrrl Gracie is currently posing on her back in front of the tv stand-she just finished her dinner. Dewey is under my computer chair vying for my attention. I think he wins; so I'll get off the computer and snorgle him. :)
Bethi Abbie and Pypurr are currently sitting at my feet begging me for the new SOMC Wet Cat book (sad ploy 'eh??) But seriously... I'm thankful that I have two recliners... one for each of them to take residence on and give attitudes when you scoot them away for a place to sit. At this moment... Pyper's faceplanted in DH's chair (eeewww) and Abbie is sleeping like a little angel with one paw over her face... and the other over her ear... *thinking* Maybe I should turn the music down?? : )
sarahpickle LOL. Oh DominosMomma and MsCatMattress you don't know how it makes my heart good to know that I am not alone. Domsmomma, I think I would freak out if pickle made noises as well! I laughed at the image of him carrying her around with him. And the "girlfriend" slipper. Lol. Oh dear, talk about making the most of what you've got! Pickle know's he's not allowed so he goes off and tries to get a quick hump when no one is looking.
sawah9449 Thor is sleeping on the kitchen table, and IttyBitty is wandering about the house looking for someone to give her attention
Phrog Dita is reposing like the queen she is on my "only comfortable for a cat" bed.
Rachel94 And Tinkerbell is probably passed out in the sunshine inside my mom's sunroom.
jenandmeesh I'm not with Meesh, but she is most likely following people around the house, meowing for treats...which they give her waaay too often!
Arell BJ is doing his duty as a beadspread weight (the same concept of a paperweight).
titipusmom It's cold, dreary and snow is in the forecast here in Minnesota...if they're lucky, the programmable thermostat has kicked in and the radiators just came on. If that's the case, Winnie is in her box on the radiator, Max is on the chair near the radiator, and Titipu and Misty have momentarily called a truce and they are sleeping in another room in another chair, bundled together. However, when I get home, there will be a mad dash to the kitchen and the feeding trough!
Kamrie Snickers is out in the rain and probably hoping that the blow dryer is ready for him when he comes in all soaked.
Heather Catlady Princess is sleeping across my arm and making typing extremely difficult. D.C. is currently adding his own special touch to my clean laundry. (That's what I get for leaving it out where they can get to it.) Well, strike that. He's now just jumped onto the bed and Meio has taken over adding cat hair to my clothing. Being that she is a calico, with large swatches of white, orange and black fur, she's quite good at it no matter what color the clothes are. Julie is curled up on the bed as well. Kizzy is sitting on top of the door meowing at me. Mayhem is playing with her favorite toy, a paper ball. Dart is laying on his back, feet in the air, half twist in his back, so he looks all goofy. Bear is curled up in the sink. Miette is in heat and trying to get a little sum' sum from any kitty. All males are neutered, but Kozmo is giving it a try. Much yowling involved. Kamaatz is on the a/c window unit ledge looking outside at a squirrel. Kimba is on top of the fridge curled up in the half-empty container for bottled water. Holly is doing what Holly does best - eating. Spaz is asleep on the couch.
I think that's all 14 of the indoor kitties.. whew.
The foster kittens out on the screened-in back porch learning how to hunt by chasing each other. They'll soon crash in a big pile on top of the heating pad I have out there for them.
Amnell24 Willow is playing in the kitty pie I knitted. Morris is pestering me because he wants outside.
DominosMomma I call them Ebony and Ivory, because he is all black (hence the name) and humpbaby is all white. It's hilarious, we'll hear him from across the house and just chuckle :) I mean, I WAS the one who took him to get his itty bitty bits snipped, the least I can do is let him go through the motions!
It's so funny though, when someone comes near him he drops her like she's unimportant (the whole "she's just a friend!" gag, just like a guy!) and once you walk away he grabs her by the neck and carries her away.
Shingalana I'm at work but if we had cat cam at my house it would probably show at least 4 of the 7 cats curled up asleep in various spots on my bed. :)
figsandmice As I write this, Mystra is tapping me on my arm, bugging me for pettins. Excuse me, I have to go now.
Jackie929 Kotie is hugging the wall, trying to stay out of Itty's way. Itty is hunkered under the bed just wanting for someone to walk by so she can attack them.
mswee10 I suspect Chloe is sleeping like she does everyday when I'm at work. She's saving up her energy so she can stay up all night bugging me while I'm trying to sleep.
dlowewin Tiberius is cuddled into a tiny ball wrapped in a blanket, Caterpillar is belly up near by pretending she is not trying to snuggle him.
mjlovelace I am not there, but I know that Murray is probably begging my dad for his favorite treat, shrimpies, by making sure that he is precisely underfoot every time dad get near the kitchen. If he isn't begging for food (usually after he is successful at getting treats) then he is on "gecko watch". This is when he makes his rounds in the house looking at the ceiling. If he finds a gecko he then proceeds to destroy the furniture and knock everything over as he attempts to get his 12 lb. bulk up to the level of the gecko, all while making a weird chattering noise with his mouth.
lesleymullin Madame is laying in my lap, looking at all the wonderful SOMC cats with me! She also looks like she might attack the power cord to the Macbook.
rocktheshade rocco is on this keyboard- stealing attention as always...shadow is on the end of my bed giving me a dirty look for not petting her 24/7
tonks_kittygoth Lugosi is watching over the water hole aka the bathroom, Roswell is standing under the shelf with the treats on it looking her cutest, and Karloff is sitting next to me purring in my ear.
Heather Catlady DominosMom.. I'm glad I'm not the only one with a humper. Kozmo is my humper. He'll go at it on my leg if I let him. Such a perv!! LOL
melissa*luvsBrodyandBiscuit Brody is most likely harassing my new(ish) puppy, Biscuit. He likes to lay in front of the sliding glass door and stare at her, taunting her with his looks, causing Biscuit to start barking and jumping and pawing at the window, then Brody just stares at her with that evil glare of his....as if to say..."one of these days......"
wreathofbarbs My cat is outside in the rain, refusing to come in. She saw me and ran when I got home, so I am rather suspicious of her current..errr.. "activities"
sunnybearmom Pete is wanting me to stop typing and love him and only him. Ghost is planning to jump on the next cat that walks past and the rest of the crew has gone to bed for the night
megphif All four are alternating between lounging and surveying (and defending) their territory.
CATatonic I just had a Cinnabon and my cat Garcia is attempting to get the lid off the extra frosting. He knows exactly what is inside, and has it on the ground and is "gutting" it with his back legs.
ringo1neko Ishmael just cried and cried until I let him into the room so he could burrow into the comforters on the bed... Sylvester is using the break from Isshy to nap on my favorite chair.
TelmahQ London is performing her very favorite activity... lying on top of my legs as I sit in bed on the laptop. She sometimes RUNS to get to the legs. It makes it really hard to get up.
FuzZ!!! Sleeping under the bed.... if Kody was still here she'd be kicking his @$$!
cheri_Adopted_by_5_Sparks,NV Tig, sleeping in the bathroom in front of the heater vent.
Bitty, sleeping in her hammock.
Rascal, sleeping on the floor in front of the couch, because hub is sleeping on the couch.
Kirby, sleeping in his bed.
Meeshee, sleeping on the dining room chair next to me.
BEWmom Ellie is contemplating how to get a lizard in the house and not have me take it away from her before she can eat it. Because at over 12 pounds she needs all the food she can get.
Bob is trying to get enough sleeping cause he has to yowl at the top of his lungs every hour over night as keeping me awake at night is his job.
Oreo0579 Charlie is in his favorite spot......here on my desk between me and the keyboard. Darcy is alseep on the couch. Anna is looking out the window from the top level of the cat stand.
Rhiyaya Squirt is curled up on my UNC sweatshirt. He's happy that North Carolina has gone Carolina blue!
soulessminnions Tippy is curled up in front of the gas fireplace. She likes the warmest place in the house.
ArtsyCat Tabi is currently fast asleep on the sofa beside me......she has had a hard day of naps, cleaning herself, begging for treats, more naps....no wonder she's asleep.
3pets Clyde is pouncing a b-u-g and Bonnie is delicately sipping water from the dog bowl!
Maggies Mom Magellan is slithering in between my ankles hoping she can con me into a second dinner - she's rejected the first one because we squirted her antibiotic into it. Clipper is outside. I just went out there to the garage and there were glowing eyes in the flowerbed. She followed me inside but then went back out - many mice out there to catch tonight!
Kathleen with kitties All three kitties are waiting for me to come home and feed them (even if they are napping).
Jess, LA, CA Keebler is eclipsing the computer screen with his large orange fluffy self, Alys is glad because she just didn't sit on the keyboard and almost lose the post, and Hermes is in hiding, as usual.
Gabzilla9 toby is in (on?) his cat tree watching drunk people stumble home.
phoebe is under my bed hiding from said drunk people.
koffeekat Kitty is "hiding" behind the curtains, looking out into the dark street at the rain. She just chased Boo off into hiding. He is probably somewhere nursing his wounded pride.
KsMarm Aurelius: sleeping
Saphira: sleeping
Jasmine: sleeping
and not to be outdone by the older cats, the tiny little foster kitten, Mercy, who is only 5 weeks old is ....... sleeping
slaveto3 They are all sleeping, but since I'm going into bed in about 5 minutes, Scarlett will still be sleeping and the boys will be making "bed tumors" when I pull the sheets and quilt tight on my bed.
Goodnight all!
merrymishaps Jeter is curled up at my feet (because that darn laptop is sitting in his spot again). Joey is curled up on the couch, and Posey is curled up on our bed!
mnphotos Midnight is sleeping in her bed on top of the dresser. She claimed this spot so I moved her bed up there.
Patches is sleeping on top of one of the recliners. She's the queen so she gets the high spot.
Milo is sleeping on my chair. When I evict him to sit there, he'll crawl into my lap, climb up on my chest and go to sleep with his paws resting on my chin.
caesarsmom Caesar is trying to convince me that he won't get into trouble if I let him out after curfiew and unsupervised.
Smeasle Tango is probably biting Mama Kitty's ears and she is trying to give him a bath. Or he's running around attacking anything in his path--midnight crazies!!
mutther_of_5 For once in their furry little lives, my cats aren't doing a darn thing. Well, nothing that requires yelling, cleaning up or fixing, that is.
I give it 5 seconds.
charitysmommy Charity is curled up asleep on the bed shedding all over the clean laundry. She's tired from sharpening her claws on a guest's sandal and rubbing all over another guest's purse!
Leela315 Hank's eating, Pinky's sleeping, and I don't know what Sid is doing. Probably causing havoc. Or sleeping. One of the two.
Kittyfostermom32 They're thinking she'd better get off that computer soon and clean out our litter box.
Jacki14a Gandalf is helping me surf the net by getting between me and the keyboard. Gremlin is somewhere sleeping, I believe.
scoutmamaof4 The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious cat! She likes to lie in the oddest places. We have a five gallon bucket of pine bark besides the heater for starting fires, and she likes to lie in that! She will pick an odd spot to lie in for about a week, then she picks another spot. Sometimes it's on a ladder rung, the trailer hitch, or out in the middle of the lawn.
The other six are outside somewhere. I suspect they are hunting or sleeping on a stump,
meandmycat I would guess that right now Gizmo is perched in front of the glass doors watching for the squirrel outside to slip up and come inside where my cat can get him.
Girrlkitty Sly right now is probably pinning Amber down and making her scream bloody murder because he thinks it's funny.
Starbelly Bond is just laying in his very favorite place so he can see us and upstairs at the same time where the tiles are nice and cool. Ariel is up on her cat tree which lays directly in a sunbeam, and Aurora disappeared this morning. It was the strangest thing, I was getting dressed and she tried to squeeze under the dress even though she was too fat and got caught on a bunch of cords. I had to unplug some stuff to get her unstuck! Now I have no idea where she is, because I looked under the dresser and she's gone!
edgecupcakekitty My cat Frito staring out my window at my other cat Pirate outside.
PunkRawker Zidane is playing with a ring off a milk jug. My cats LOVE those things!
trin Megumi is sleeping on my clean blue jeans. (it's sunday evening and I'm still in PJs) Seimei is napping on top of the cable box. I think he's wanting to record something from Animal planet and doesn't trust the machine to do it without supervision.
Ariabob Bob is at htis very moment calling all of his hoochie mamas to come over and get some. He waits until I leave to have them over, the casanova.
Aria is hiding in the closet near my one singular pair of Jimmy Chos with an a look of complete and absolute disgust on her face.
beccabex Rocky is sleeping on top of the cupboards over the fridge and Gatsby is walking back and forth past my laptop as I try to type this.
Unkwillow I'm at work but I suspect my older cat, Tigger, is doing her best to avoid the other animals or sleeping on the back of the over stuffed green couch. Elwood Blues, my 8 month old kitten, is likely plotting evil things to do to Tigger or the dog, or sleeping because plotting is hard work!
Speaking of wet cats, he needs a bath!
Jazzerella i am away at school, but all 4 of my babies are locked in the basement (dont worry they have plenty of soft bed and food and water down there) for the night. SOMEONE *shifty eyes* ate an entire bowl full of cooked ground beef that was sitting on the counter for dinner-making. We are assuming someone will be barfing it all up tonight, so they are all in the basement.
