Funny things your Pets do

So, I thought I would start a thread here to share funny stories from peoples pets.
I will start. I had my guinea pigs out on the sofa last night, all happy and playing around. Unfortunately, I needed to let some air out (putting it politely). The sound of it though sent the guinea pigs into a scared frenzy and I had to comfort them but just the reaction made me giggle.

Hi to all.

@Sparklebright63 That is so sweet. My guinea pig Chocolate is the jumper. She thinks that she can jump distances that she cant lol and then wonders why she ends up on the floor.

I used to have a cat who would only drink from a bowl of water placed inside the bath. So I would hear him jumping in and out to get a drink.

Great thread idea
Our family dog is pretty normal but when on a walk will pick up a stick or ball and drop it then when someone goes to pick it up he will snatch it and drop it further away. It’s as if he wants to play but doesn’t.Sandy_123 said:I used to have a cat who would only drink from a bowl of water placed inside the bath. So I would hear him jumping in and out to get a drink. -

Eww @66Mustang.
@BritPuddles not heard of cats liking tea, I know if we put glasses of water down, the cats would be right on to it. There proper scavengers cats are. I saw mine literally swipe a chicken drummer off my sons plate once, paw up from the floor and ran with it. Growling incase we got it off him. I never knew cats growled until I got one. -
Very good thread idea @BritPuddles, thank you
We used to have a cat who would occasionally just sit there with his tongue out for no reason at all, not cleaning himself or drinking anything. He would also have the odd occasion where he would just start running around the house at top speed, as though he wanted to get in his daily steps, we used to call it his mad half hour.
I'm not sure if this is common cat behaviour, I've only ever had one and not noticed these behaviours from other people's cats, and I don't watch cat videos either.Online Community CoordinatorConcerned about another member's safety or wellbeing? Flag your concerns with us.

My cat is quite unique lol. He drinks his water from a glass that i put down for him on the landing. If i'm later than usual going to bed he will come downstairs and meow at me sitting in the middle of the room and stare at me until i get up and turn the light off.He doesn't like meat of any kind. I can leave raw or cooked me out and he won't even twinge.He loves fish, especially prawns. If we're having prawns and he's upstairs i'll shout up asking if anyone wants "prawnies" and he jumps off the bed and runs down stairs so fast lol, it's so funny.He's a siamese so loves company. If we go out and are longer than usual, when we come home he'll meow for about 5 minutes as if to say "you were gone for ages"I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
