After 2 days of vacation I now know what my cats do while I'm at work
They sleep.

They sleep all the time.

They get up for a few minutes only to find a new sleeping place.

They sleep on the windowsill

They sleep on the sofa

They sleep on my dining room chairs

They sleep all over the place.

Damn, aren't these cats suppose to clean up my place while I'm at work.

:mad:

1. You Forgot
They wake up to shed cat hair while they're finding a new place to sleep.

4. And to occasionally fling kitty litter...
all over the floor.

I also discovered that my cats enjoy watching Days of Our Lives and General Veterinarian.

3. Oh , no..
cat's were made to sleep! I oughta know, I've been around cats all my life. My son just adopted a new 7 week old kitten, and having been around cats all his life, he thinks there's something wrong with the kitten - it sleeps a lot!

5. lol, I had a webcam on my cats once...
so I could watch them at work...they are both black, and all I would see, all day, is 2 black motionless blobs on the screen.... I could've just taken a picture of them and had the same effect :silly:

6. Oh, silly you.
That's only what they do when you're home to see them.

When you're gone, they invite their kitty friends in for wild parties. (That's why all that kitty litter gets flung all around.)

8. And still we believe...
... that there is no greater honor than to earn the respect of our cat.

11. If cats had the bodies of bullfrogs, they'd be extinct by now
The shit those animals get away with! It's unbelievable. Yet we love them so.

13. I've been unemployed almost a year and a half
and I can confirm that they sleep all day. And most of the night.

I have ONE cat who seems to have a job. Punk goes out in the morning, and comes back late at night. I have no idea where he goes or what he does. The other two just sleep here all day.
