You want privacy in the bathroom, Humans? Why?
If you insist, I’ll run your request by the 6 other resident Cats, but don’t expect a speedy response or, if we’re being honest, any response at all, as the Cat Co-op board has many weightier matters to consider at our next meeting such as the largest Woofie, the second largest Woofie and their combined impact on our HOA fees.
In the meantime, please turn on my drippy faucet of youth.
None of us are getting any younger here.
–Charlie


Charlie doesn’t often feature in your posts. I would have mistaken him for Finnegan.

I am the Elder Statesman of the Cats. I typically let the younger Cats post as I prefer to spend my time napping, eating, or drinking from the drippy faucet of youth. Purrs, Charlie

My Ginger sits in the tub and peeks out from under the curtain asking for the drippy fountain of youth. She also likes water poured slowly from a cup into the tub.

Your Ginger Cat is a smart lady. Her whiskers will remain perky and her coat will remain soft as a kitten’s so long as you oblige her with the drippy faucet of youth. Purrs, Charlie

I wonder why they want to be alone in that bathroom…. there is the bathtub and a lot of water… water is scary, so they should be happy for some company :O)

My cat Frankie always opens the curtain to see me in the shower.

Frankie probably either wants some of the water drops of youth from the shower head or thinks that you are trying to start up a game of hide-and-seek by hiding behind a curtain. Purrs, Charlie

Probably the later. He’s not a fan of getting wet.

Don’t the humans know that when they sit down on the pot, it signals pet-me time?

Or even better that they should always open the glorious drippy faucet of youth before looking after their own needs? Purrs, Charlie

There is a total cat ban in place in the bathrooms. It is about the only place plants can grow–there is a skylight in the ceiling for light.

But we Cats LOVE eating plants, almost as much as we love throwing up slimy leaves and stems on your pillows and shoes. Your ban on Cats in the bathroom/botanical garden is practically unconscionable. Hiss, Charlie
