It's Caturday!

Here is Miss Belladonna Took on one of her very favorite sitting places: our cable box!



This has some disadvantages. If she is just sitting, or she is laying on it facing us, no problem. But when she turns her back, it hangs over the front a little bit, preventing us from being able to change channels, pause, or adjust the volume. The DH has taken to squirting her with the "don't scratch the furniture water bottle" which makes her move a little bit. Also occasionally on her journey to her favorite spot, she will step on the buttons on the Blu-ray player and open the disc tray.

Once, in an effort to get her not to sit on the cable box, the DH rearranged the mantel, and placed the cable box between the DVR and the Blu-ray player. Shortly after that, we saw her on the mantel using her paw to try and get the cable box out of the middle! I can just imagine if she had knocked it out. It probably would have knocked all three pieces of equipment on the floor. I could just see us trying to explain that to the cable company!

So, we've pretty much learned to live with it. I don't know why she loves it so much, unless it's just because it's small and square and warm, LOL!

Because it's warm, of course! A feline will do about anything to get a bit of a warm spot... *ggg* You could try putting a nice cardboard box, preferably with a fleece lining, close by, this often works when I want cats not to lie in some spot (just imagine how my desk looks ;o) ). Or you can put something on top which will making lying down uncomfortable, something that prickles... but then, cats are surprisingly resilient when it comes to prickling surfaces. :D

My Zoe does the same thing. She loves to curl up on the cable box to snooze.

Belladonna Took looks very sweet there!
