Harry's favorite game to play is to hide under the bed or behind a door and pounce on me as I walk by. He can't get enough. Well he's figured out that whenever he meows I'll come to see if he's ok. Now he hides under the bed, meows, and waits for me to respond. He's even got his pitiful sounding meow perfected.

Meecho does that too but her favorite is the curtains. For some reason she thinks I can't see her in those SHEER curtains 
This reminds me of a story about Walter...a few weeks ago when I changed their litter boxes to the top entry kind, I wasn't sure he would understand how to use it right away so I put a bunch of treats on top of the box, then put him in it, and used the kitty attract litter...
Anyway, when he finally used the litter box, I was waiting there and as soon as he popped his head out of the box I gave him a ridiculous amount of praise and a bunch of treats. So, 5 minutes later, what does he do? He goes in the box again, doesn't use the box, just pushes litter around, pops his head out and waits there, and screams at me to come bring him his treat!! He did it over and over and over again that night, the little brat!
And then for the next few days, every time he would use his litter box he would wait there and yell for his treat.

Lol, that's funny. We'll never be bored when we're in the company of a sphynx.

Oh man, my little booger attacks my feet whenever he gets the chance. If he's following me, which he usually does, I keep one eye trained behind me. I ran into several pieces of furniture so I'm sure he's laughing at me.

Chadwick rarely gets rough with me (everyone else is a different story!), but when he does get frisky, he'll wait until my back is turned. It's so funny! When I turn toward him, he'll stop and stare at me with his mouth hanging open, waiting for me to turn back around so he can attack me again. I have a friend that Chadwick is in love with (He has often told me that my cat's affection for him makes him uncomfortable) and he is a tall guy. He got up to use the restroom and Chadwick takes off from across the room and jumps up and ninja kicks him right in his bum! I didn't think my Chad could jump that high! They are unlike any other cat I have ever had! My mom bred Siamese when I was little and I thought they had a lot of personality!

Isn't it amazing how quick they learn certain habits. I just wish Meecho learned more good habits then bad
