Why does Pixie walk up to Stranger at random moments, and attempt to SIT on her? I mean this quite literally. Stranger will be doing Stranger things, (which usually involve standing at the door whining) and Pixie will walk up to her, turn around, back up, lift a leg, and proceed to SIT on Stranger.
I know Pixie hasn't completely warmed to Stranger, and she's not entirely happy about having her around (although, in many, many ways, she's been a happier cat than when she was the only cat), but I've had multiple "I'll tolerate you but I deplore you" cat situations, and I've never in my life seen one cat attempt to SIT on another one.
(Oh, and don't tell them I told you this, but I caught the two of them napping together on the futon. You may all proceed to AWWW now.)

Maybe the floor was cold and Pixie was warm.

Cats defy explanation.
End of analysis.

Stranger is higher than the floor. It's the same reason cats will sit on pieces of paper.

Rotten cats. Again with pharmacy and it's stupid "voice activated prescription ordering program." Last time Pixie decided to poke me in the butt while I was trying to order. This time the cats, who had been studiously ignoring each other all morning, decided to spazz at each other, resulting in Stranger dropping a box on my foot.
Anyone wants two slightly used cats, with or without fur, let me know.

 because they are cats.
Grace will ignore me for days-she's a fairly solitary cat, then suddenly demand 110% of my total attention and God forbid I don't give it to her.

Well of course Otto sits on the others. He can't afford to let Clarisse sit on him! :zip: | |
