LOL with the cats. I get the idea many cats rather resent the invasion of their private kingdoms and just opt out of busy, hectic dinners attended by people they don't know well. My friend at work put her cat in the bedroom bath one Thanksgiving and she said it was thoroughly trashed when they went up later after company. The cat had even reached under the bathroom door and unched a whole throw rug on the other side of the door (lying atop
carpeting)
underneath the door and into the bathroom and the cat was lying on that when she opened the bathroom door! She said she feared some child might wander into the bedroom and bother the cat but thought she'd be safe in the bath. Kitty apparently disagreed with her imprisonment and had her way with all my friend's nice towels, bath salts, perfume and things!!! She said Kitty disappeared and she couldn't find her in the house until the next day!!! She was in a spare bedroom closet up in top, behind boxes! Had her back to the closet door and didn't say a word or look around as she fetched her down! Said it took a whole day to get Kitty to approach her again, purr, etc. She was majorly p.o.'d by her afternoon shut in the bathroom! Talk about a little queen!!!
(Well, she wasn't little - she was a Maine Coon - a sturdy girl!)
