It can be socks, towels, whatever, if its clean, he lays on it!!

Gus does this too. But for him it's the warmth. He loves rolling in the warm clothes. He wont do it if they have been sitting in the dryer for sometime and have already cooled off. He knows when I'm headed for the laundry room and is right there ready to jump on them as soon as I put them down. But that doesnt really bother me. what really bugs me,,,,,,,,, is when he uses them to clean the slobber off of his favorite rubber ball. I have posted about that darn ball a few times here on YT. He loves that ball so much. I once caught him climbing my dresser to it. I don't have the heart to thow it away. Even when we go to put something on and it's all stiff from dried Gus slobber.

Ok, one thing that Mia does that drives me nuts : she plays with rocks then wants to bring them inside the house!! She knows she's not supposed to bring the rocks into the house, so you should see all the rocks that are in the garage!!! I should take a picture and post that. There's a bunch of rocks right at the door to go in the house. Mia drops the rocks on the ground right before she goes in the house.

Oh, and when we go to bed, she won't let me cuddle next to her. If I rest my head near her, she'll get up and change spots on the bed. But if she gets scared for some reason (the fan) she'll come and curl up next to me. At 2:00 this morning she was on my stomach, she was scared of the fan again. Ahhhhh she's funny

bkessler · 08-09-2005, 09:33 AM

My pet peeve was that the only person that Mocha allowed to rub her belly was my super (in my building).. If anyone else tried to rub her belly she would bark or get mad but whenever she saw Ed, he would yell, "Hey there Killer, and immediately, she would roll over on her back" It was the strangest thing..
My pet peeve with Lily Mae is that I lay her paper down to go potty on but she would rather play with it.. she drags it all around my apartment and she pees on the rug.. drive me CRAZY

She does NOT give up if I touch a towel. So unless I want to be out in the afternoon heat of 100 deg plus - I DO NOT TOUCH laundry in the afternoon.

That is too funny!

rrosenberry · 08-09-2005, 09:39 AM

Ok , mine is,,when he wont come! Like Sat. I knew he had to go out, so I get the leash, and hes behind the couch , behind the chair, around everything. THis went on for 10 mins... I HATE THAT.

My 2 YT's are spoiled rotten -- just like my kids, but they do have some aggravating habits -- just like my kids. (haha)
Dixie and Daisha (1 yr old and 5months old) will find anything in the floor and shred it. If there is nothing in the floor, they will dig in the bathroom garbage and shred toilet paper. If there is any hanging down, they will jump and get it, and take off running down the hall with it.... really frustrating. They also are 90% housetrained, but will pee and poop just off the edge of the pad, so it gets on the carpet. I have bought a steam cleaner (I'm a neat freak) but no matter how many pads I spread out ( I refuse to cover my entire living room) they still "miss". They will also go on clothes left in the floor -- UGH. They have aslo ended up with free roam of the house and now I'm afraid it is too late to start kenneling them up .... they bark like mad. They also hide treats under the covers in the bed or under my pillow.. at first it was kinda funny, but now it really aggravates me to stick my feet in the bed and feel a wet, cold, chewey dog bone -- YUCK. I still love them dearly and wouldn't trade them for anything... bad habits and all!

Oh my gosh, the crazy things these munchkins do.......................

Peeves: Gracie waiting till I vaccum the whole house and THEN room by room (on the sly of course)

shred any paper she can find into a hundred pieces..............................

Gracie casually strolling around the yard, finding something nasty (such a bird poop), and rolling in it before I can grab her..................

centralnewyorki · 08-09-2005, 11:39 AM

I thought of two more and had to add...

If Olivia finds any socks, underwear or bras on the floor she brings it out into the living room. She'll either play in them or just leave them all over the place. I'm attaching a photo of her in a pair of underwear and my running bra. We were putting away laundry that day and she kept sneaking up and getting things. She was getting so grumpy and crying to me to help her because she was stuck in the bra and couldn't get out!

Whenever I change Olivia's pee pads, she immediatley goes and pees on the fresh ones. Like she couldn't have gone 30 seconds earlier?!

johnsae · 08-09-2005, 12:15 PM

Joey loves my thong underwear, and yes it is embarrasing when guests are over, but it's kind of funny too. My biggest pet peeve is that he pulls on my pant legs when I walk....my pants (or skirts) are his fav toys, and when I tell him not to pull, he just barks at me. Another pet peeve is that he will just bark and bark and bark until I stop what I am doing and pay attention to him. Also, he LOVES dustbunnies and dirt - and in NYC this is a huge problem! I took him for a walk last night and he picked up a nasty used tissue and then it was sooo hard to get it out of his mouth.

I love him regardless though - the number one thing I love about him is that he watches TV! I swear, he walks right up to the TV and his little head moves from side to side as he follows the action. He also looks at himself in the mirror! He is so cute!

My biggest pet peeve (sp?) about Riley is that he likes to play the game "Catch Me" He grabs something he shouldn't have (his favorite thing is money) and runs all over the house with it so that you can't catch him.

This is such a fun thread!

I was thinking about this the other day, and I decided that I am going to use TJ's liking of towels to my advantage. I am going to take an old towel and cut it in half, fold it, and stick it in his litter box. He will most likely pee on the towel and I can just wash them!

When I put Pita's food down and she either backs up or makes "burying" motions with her nose, even tho she gobbled the food down the day before!

luzangela428 · 08-10-2005, 11:14 AM

If I get Maximus' harness he must do 10 laps back and forth in the house before he will settle down enough for me to put the leash on the harness ALAS our walk...lol, and even then he sits for like 2 seconds and then runs to the door...figures out I'm not getting up (because leash is still in my hand and wasn't able to connect it)..comes back sits for 2 more seconds and then runs too the door...we can do this for literally 20 mins. sometimes beofre he tires himself out and it like okay NOW carry me to the door...also he will roll something uder the couch and he will bark for hours at the damn thing....until I have to move the furniture and get it out...it really bothers him..lol...oh and he is NOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!! a nosy shredder but he is sooo cute you just have to smile!!
