Kitties!
Here's how I mess over my mommy. You can try it with yours. Loads of laughs for you and loads of guilt for her! That translates to more petting and a treat.
Here's what *I* do..maybe it will work for you. I have established this habit of going into the bathroom after my breakfast where the acoustics are absolutely FINE..and then, I commence to meowing as loudly as I can. I just do it..no reason. I can't count the fun I've had watching her coming down the hallway to see what is the matter when I first started this scam. Now, darn it anyway, she won't come to look any more. I cried "wolf" too often. So, she just lets me holler all I want to.
I developed a new twist to keep things interesting. I go to the bathroom, holler my lungs out and she's busy in the kitchen. What she doesn't know is...I have doubled my fun these past two mornings by creeping into the kitchen and taking up a position between her feets. Then, when she turns to do something..or takes a step..I can make a premium sounding squall and piteous sound. That gets me apologies, pets and a treat. I stay for all of that and I don't run away so I'm really not hurt (I ain't dumb!!) but watching her do the Texas Two Step is such fun! It sets the tone of the day.
Just thought I would share, Kitties.

What a clever lady cat you are, sweet Admiral. You've got beauty AND brains! :)
Bathroomz haz teh bestest akoostix, we all sing in there rill lowd too! You shuld hear "wats wrong kitty?" heehee it's pawsome!
When ya gotta go, let everyone know!
Admiral, you are one resourceful Ladycat! Sitting between their feet is fun. I did that yesterday tooo, but all it got me was my human telling meto shush, and be quiet. Any tips for changing their behaviour?
MOL....you are so "bad" Admiral, but we totally luvsya!!!!!!!!!!
LOL! I'll be sure Myst doesn't see this!
Admiral you are very naughty :-)
We do this on occasion too and it always works=you know what they say, brilliant kitty minds always think alike, gorgeous girl :)!!...We hope you and your Mom had a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoy a happy weekend together as well...kisses, lovely friend...Calle, Halle, Sukki
Shame on you Admiral. :-)
MOL, that is very funny, We like the Texas two step. We are going to have to see if we can get our Mom to do that step. We usually just get norty words our of her mouth. Love the way your mind works Admiral.
Those are both splendid antics and I heartily applaud you my sisah in furz.

We will try the kitchen move with our Mommy! Not Daddy, though...he lumbers.
Admiral, Rupert has the heaty box in the Yellow room "Reserved" for the day!
Admiral, Admiral, Admiral. You live dangerously!?! Have you ever gotten your tail stepped on? It's no fun. I don't mean to scold, but you need to be careful between feet.

Admiral! I already do the "yelling at the top of my lungs so mom comes running to see what's the matter" move, but I'll have to try that kitchen move next. Anything to get some more treats and pets!!

You little manipulator you.lol I never get between Mom's feet, but I ease up behind her. You're one smart kitty.

You are a clever young lady cat - we hadn't thought of this ruse - we are going to try it on mum next week (after we have practiced over the weekend)
Thanks for the tip
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Admiral, it must be a tortie thing because I like to get right behind my beans feets in the kitchen too. Mommy says I'm like a stealth because I just appear. If they even so much as touch me though, I play hard to get and make them follow me all over the house before letting them know I'm okay.

Admiral you silly kitty, why do you DO THAT????!!!!!
Are you singing in the bathroom? MOL!
Also....if you continue to do the "two step" your Mom is accidentally gonna do the "two step" on YOU! OUCH!!
That seems like a great trick... I bet you sound beautiful in there!
Maybe you and Disco could enter a yodeling competition...he yells and yells for me to do something, too.
Oh No! you don't do that it cause lots of problems you know that your mum is so busy with cooking for her's son's and G-son :-)
I would rather you stayed in bath room and close the door then you can sing one of your favorite Opera song:-)
xoxox
Admiral ...That's funny ! I should try that with my mom : )
Greetings Admiral,
Just thought you might want to know it is the same in this house but only with dad since he has been our of work for years.
Ms K and Egmont
Did you learn this trick from Au?????
One has to amuse ones self.
You mischevious little Admiral! But I love it! :)
Admiral, guess what?!?!? I do that too! It stopped working for me after the first eleventy-five times though.
This is excellent work!!
Miss Admiral, you have found out the same thing that I have - once you've meowed one too many times, they quit coming to check on you. However, it does still work to annoy the spit out of them, should you ever want to do that. I don't think I will try your under-the-feets tactic, though - my mom would cause serious injury to me if I didn't move fast enough!
I also wanted to say that Fuzzy and I both loved your Thanksgiving post, and we are most jealous of your bird tv channel - that is a beautiful view!!
Your friend, Zoe
