My 11 year old cat is running around acting like a kitten!
I don't know what it's about, but ever since I've moved into my new apartment she's started acting like she used to- dashing madly from room to room, stalking shadows around the corners, twitching her tail, and generally behaving like a kitten!

I love it. I haven't seen her act like this in a LONG time.

11. All our cats are Democats!
That's part of my e-mail address. I love it when our older cats (also 11) play like kittens.

3. That's hilarious. She likes her new digs!
My cat was happy to move with me! I let him out of the oranges-cardboard-box after the trek in the car, into a brand new apartment with wall to wall carpeting . . . . he immediately threw himself on the floor and began dragging himself acrosst he carpet by his front paws, hind legs all stretched out. He didn't spend a minute freaking out wondering where he was --- it's like he immediately know this was our new home and boy was he pleased at the extra room and clearly approved of the carpeting!

5. haunted apartment?
i think there may be ghosts in there, cats are very receptive to the supernatural....

(sorry i watch VH1 Celebrity Paranormal Project tonight)

7. as long as she doesn't start acting like
amitten, then you're probably okay.

Otherwise she'd be bullish on herself, and going places.
