I’ve known these cats since she bought them about a year ago (helped pick them out) and had sorta accepted their lame, skiddish behavior, but now it is getting to me. They lurk in the hall until you walk toward them and then they friggin bolt for under the bed like I am a feline ax murderer (hmm, there’s a thought). It has taken one of them almost a month to even come out from under the bed.

1) They are scaredy cats

2) Try finding out if they Fishing, Mousing or Birding cats. fishing cats like tuna or anchovy treats. Mousers like chasing balls and little toys.
Birders like leaping and watching the birds in the window.

if you have a birder, you need a “Da Bird” toy.

Definitely not all cats behave this way. I know one who looks like a Maine Coon but acts like a Ragdoll who *cannot* tolerate being left alone by humans for more than a day.

We have a great midwestern lovecat.
He can’t stand being separated from you.

he’s clingy.

[quote=paramount]My losses

1. My pension
2. 401k cut by 50%
3. Vacation time cut
4. Lost all sick time
5. Lost holidays (including July 4th)
6. And now choice in Healthcare

But oh yes, were supposed to be happy to have a job.

We’ve been duped into thinking unions are bad; if I was union my employer wouldn’t be getting away with stripping our benefits without a fight.

Sooner or later I’ll wise up and walk away from my house.[/quote]

Why not start a union?
