Sorry if I offend anyone, but I don't know (or trust) anyone who DOESN't converse with their pets.
And boy, am I familiar with the cat outside the shower thing! I swear one cat I had called me an unmentionable cat word when I didn't heed her warning about the downpour of water...she was very indignant! LOL

Yes, but lets keep it a secret.

@CrazyKittyLvr2 , OMG, I had this same conversation with Sophie (cat) this morning. The dog often joins us as well. They both think no one should be unaccompanied to the "facilities".

She will be horrified that you are being drenched by water (most cats HATE water on them - love to play with it coming out of the faucet, as long as they don't get a drop on them). She will watch in horror as you are trapped in a glass box being drenched with an unending stream of water. I'll be anxious to know how that conversation goes. Ha!
@Havarti I've never owned a kitty and always wonder, since I've heard they hate water, I assume they don't get a bath. Is the cleaning w/ tongue they do on themselves enough to keep them clean? Fur balls, I know is an issue.

I frequently have my cats call out to "Daddy" when I pick them up. "Daddy, Mommy's got me!"

@Havarti Thanks so much for this info. It answered a lot of questions. My DH is allergic to cats...the saliva on fur, so we've stayed w/ short haired dogs. I do remember my DIL had a gorgeous kitty, but when she got pregnant, the OB said the litter could be harmful to the unborn baby (?). She sadly opted to give her cat to a friend.

@Shanus Cat feces can be dangerous to unborn babies. Pregnant women are advised not to change the litter box. Cat feces can contain a parasite called toxoplasmosis. The doctor should have explained that to your DIL. Her husband could have taken care of the litter box during that time. I've never heard of kittens being harmful to unborn babies. I just Googled it to see if there was something I didn't know about and found nothing except the toxoplasmosis, which I've heard about for years.

@NickNack My son changed the litter for several months, but not a cat person either and grossed him out. At the time, they lived in a tiny apartment and the litter box was in their only bathroom.
