Not before playing with them for a while, tossing them in the air, batting them around with their paws, etc, etc :)

Malcolm comes into the bedroom and starts yowling.

I stumble out of bed and ask what’s the trouble.. house on fire?
Coyote in the yard? Litterbox suddenly unacceptable?

Stumbling further, I ask him to show me the trouble.

He leads me into the kitchen and hops onto the island.

“I’d like some treats, please.”

Woo and yay.

We have one who will never drink out of the water dish directly, she will wet her paw and lick it.
She has been that way since a kitten.
Heard that was not too uncommon with some cats.

I got one of those too...
Doesn't do anything....
Hates to be touched, hates to be held, couldn't care less about the dog,
doesn't kill mice, or flies or ants...

she's just...There.

Cat’s eyes have difficulty seeing objects that are motionless. She might be doing that because she can’t see the surface and is afraid she’ll accidentally dunk herself.

"Preferred pet"? More households own dogs than cats.

If cats are the 'preferred' pet, then it's because of Eleanor Abernathy Syndrome. Except for Tax-chick. In her case it's because she's brilliant and practically perfect in every way.

28% of dog owners own more than one dog. 52% of cat owners own more than one cat, plus their share of the 60,000,000 stray and feral cats.

For the record, my family owns two dogs. My youngest daughter, still at home and still in high school, owns two cats. And she neglected to clean the litter box before heading off to working the closing shift at Chick-fil-A.
