Do you think you have the weirdest cat in the world? It turns out most people do, and they’re both right and wrong. Namely, cats’ behaviors, however strange they may seem, are pretty similar no matter where you go. Someone on Twitter asked people to share the weird things their cats do, and you can probably guess that the answers involve a lot of theft, knocking things over, turning on faucets, and staring ominously.
Take a look at some of the mischief and destruction other people’s silly cats get up to and comment with your own below!

Why are our adorable cats so fascinated with all the fixtures in the bathroom? Vets suggest that this might come from their wild instincts—still water in the great outdoors isn’t so fresh, and drinking from a bowl in a corner or up against a wall might feel like a vulnerable position. The flowing water that comes out of the sink or shower is simply more appealing for both of those reasons. There’s no wild explanation for why these weird cats like to use sinks as beds, but a sink is perfectly cat-sized and the porcelain might feel fresh and cool in hot weather.
Walk away slowly without turning your back. Do not return.

Step one for world domination for cats: Analyze your human, find it’s weakness.
Whoa....dude I just got shivers...he maaaay be trying to kill you
Lol my baby does the same thing, but only one eye shows! It's hilarious!!
She is trying not to interfere but really wants to keep an eye on what you are doing so she is not surprised!
My best friend's cat did that after I got out the shower... Just watched me dress... I was so uncomfortable for the whole day.
He is saying: Hey I am Chubby and I will be your "Friend Until the End"
Quick send some d class personnel in to contain her!

I have my eyes on you so just watch what you are going to do! heee heee xxxooo
Your cat wants more treats bruh, so like varwenea said: Be afraid. Be very afraid.
There are only TWO explanations for this: #1 Your Cat was recruited by the FBI and the evidence gathered through this casual spying has your a*s in a crack "Fur Sher, Fur Sher..." OR #2 This is NOT your Cat, it only looks like your Cat, but is actually a telecommunicator for Aliens who are projecting ALL KITTY SEES on a Giant Theatre Screen where Aliens are continually watching (WITH FREE POPCORN - or a reasonable facsimile, on their Planet) and laughing their multiple and multicolored asses off at YOU! And if that weren't bad enough, they almost have their Technology completed to be able to beam that in as a SUPERBOWL AD!!! Either way you're screwed! Sorry....
watching over you. To make sure you don't fall into the toilet, or on the floor
My cat does the same uncanny stare and it gives me nightmares.
He's the lookout for the secret cat party going on just around the corner.
mine stares at me from the door way while i sleep...very creepy
If your pet cat is using inappropriate places as a toilet, though, there are several explanations. The first thing to try is always to take them to the vet for urine and blood analysis, because they could be acting out to show that they don't feel well.
If they have a clean bill of health, the problem could be that the litter box is not clean enough (in addition to frequent scooping, the box itself should be scrubbed out once a week,) in an inconvenient place (upstairs or downstairs, in a room that the cat finds unpleasant, or near their food,) or too small. If you have more than one cute cat, there could be a bullying situation preventing one from using the litter box, in which case the solution is to provide more boxes.
That's a nice feature. Saving you a lot of money, odor and cleaning...
My cat used to break open my garbage bags just to eat pumpkin and squash peels
Is that the dark side of the moon sign going in one side of his head and out the other?
That's actually a condition called hyperesthesia. In some cats it's just cute, but in ones like mine, he'll catch his tail and bite it enough to draw blood if he doesn't get his medication. It's due to a nerve disorder where he has tiny seizures resulting in twitching on his back and skin. To him it feels like someone is poking him, then he turns around and sees his tail and figures it's his F-ING TAIL! MUST KILL TAIL! It's sometimes called 'rippling skin syndrome' because that's what it looks like before he tries to catch his tail. Easily treatable with meds that don't have a long term negative effect. This has been my PSA for the day
My cat has passed away but he loved my hair so much that he would get excited and start to drool as he pawed at the back of my head burying himself in a nest of hair.
When I was a kid, I had a kitty who did that, too. He was the most loving cat. My mom once dated a man who shaved his head and he hated him. 😂

My cat loves youtube from android phone. Whenever I run any youtube video on my phone, she is with me as fast as possible, cuddling like there is no tomorrow.
Our kitten, Osito, likes to shower with us. He'll race over when he hears the water turn on, and then sit there washing himself while we wash. He likes to be dried with his own towel after.
My cat has a paper plate that she sits on all the time. It's to small for her to lay on it so she sits for hours just staring outside the window or cleaning herself, and then when she sleeps she takes it with her. The paper plate is at the least 5 years old and I tried to replace it once but she refused to sit in it and paced around the house looking for it til I pulled it out of the trash and put it back on the table.
My cat likes to watch certain TV shows. Her favorite was Game of Thrones. Every Sunday night right before GoT came on, she would run and sit on the footstool (code for: watching TV now) and wait for the theme music to come on. If the show was "off" between seasons, I had to find a rerun for her to watch b/c she'd just sit there waiting for Jon Snow! She also likes Peppa Pig, which means that I am watching Peppa Pig. Ugh!
Both my cats stand outside the shower when I'm in there, the shower door is glass so they can see me. One of them paces back and forth and screams at me until I get out, the other one just sits there and silently stares at me like a creeper.

Some times I just felt like reincarnation is real... we reincarnate into animals while keeping some of the habit like hugging a doll, use the toilet and flush, sleep in blanket with pillow and etc... My friend's puppy went to the toilet to pee and poop then flush without any training...
My parents had a cat that was practically omnivorous. Used to steal dry noodles from the cupboard and stole a cucumber(!) and such (I shared my baby food with her when I was very small). She ate EVERYTHING. Died at 14 from kidney failure because cats aren't omnivores really and are very, very sensitive to salt. My parents current cat has a liking for cake. There's a specific nut cake that has to be carefully guarded - she's bitten through foil to get it. At this point, it's like the bitten-off corner is a part of the cake.
My sister's cat is people food obsessed. He will fish things out of the garbage disposal, he has eaten a sponge with chicken grease on it, brownies, chili still on the stove and is particularly obsessed with bread. He will chew through packaging or trash bags and has even learned how to pull the reusable tops for cans off. They can't leave any food out ever. They often store food in the microwave or in the oven. When ever I'm there (Generally for holidays) I'm always on cat patrol to make sure he doesn't get into something. My cat doesn't care about people food. The only thing he gets is water off of tuna. BTW Kidney failure is the #1 cause of death (natural death, not car accidents etc) for cats, so it may not have been the people food.

1. My cat always strats meowing when I brush my hair after showering them. He HAS to be brushed too. 2. My ladycat has a sleeping place near the lightswitch. When we sit too long in the living room at night, she flips off the lights. 3. We have to hide bags with stickers on them, because my ladycat loves to lick glue (the one like on the stamps). 4. My cat, when the remote vacuum finishes, has to always walk it back to the docking station.
Nigel would wake me up by putting his claws in my mustache five minutes before my alarm went off. I guess he didn't like the sound. 5419AFE6-D...f3235.jpeg 
So stinkin cute! I am dog person, however I am now rethinking my choices:-)
My cat will come into the bathroom and run around the shower. She opens the shower door, gets in and proceeds to chase her tail. Only does it when I am in the bathroom and won't do it around anyone else ??
I had a cat that did this. ( rip). First time was in the middle of the night and I was asleep. Old house + old bath = really eerie echoes!!

My two cats, brother & sister will race to the bathroom when they hear me get up at night. Whoever gets there first will chase off second one because then the first one gets "undivided" attention & thats when they believe petting is best. I've been tripped by cats in hallway as they try to beat each other in. My little female loves gloves, especially when I roll both up & put away in my glove tub. I can hide it or put it out of sight and by next morning she's had a massive Glove Party in her bedroom. Yes she has her own room (its my sons old room that we've converted to a guest room that I use as my dressing room. She has gloves spread out into hallway. If she can't locate the glove tub, she'll wiggle my sock drawer open.
Who ever said cats make awful pets don't know what they are taking about! Cats are truly amazing animals and can be taught to do things just like a dog!
When my cat was mad at us, he would go and aggressively scratch on his scratch box, while glaring at us as if to say, "Take that, jerks!" But he was SUPPOSED to scratch on that box, so we found it very funny. Also, he came with his own sound effects. He would make a sound any time he jumped or stepped up or down on anything. (He was Siamese and a talker.) So, coming down the steps it would be, "Mrmpph, Mrmpph, Mrmpph", on each step. Going up the stairs it was "mrmpHH? mrmpHH?mrmpHH?" on each step.
My brothers cat is obsessed with eating his kids socks, then he climbs to the top of his cat post and vomits them all over the walls from high up >.<
Love how cat's are so strange and full of personality. Just make them adorable.
The cat I'm watching for a friend, comes in the bathroom meowing her impatience and just wanting me to hurry up. I'll ask her a question and she'll meow in a way that sounds like nooo. An I'm so bored no or nah. I follow her out and she goes to her litter box and I meow at her the whole time. Pisses her off.
My cat REFUSED to eat ANY piece of food that had touched the floor. Whether it dropped while refilling his bowl or he knocked it out didn't matter. He wouldn't touch it. To make matters worse, picking up said "floor food" and simply putting it back in his bowl didn't solve the problem. He would eat around it. Once, when I accidentally tore a new 10 lb bag of food down it's side while opening it and scattered at least 5 pounds across the floor, I thought nothing of sweeping it up and putting it in the newly filled cat food bin. For the next several days I noticed the usually piggish Tu Kitty eating VERY few morsels of kibble daily and started to get VERY concerned. As I was speaking to the Veterinarian's receptionist to schedule an urgent visit, She inquired about Tu's eating habits i.e. routines, food brands etc. Suddenly I recalled the spillage incident and "No Way!" escaped my lips. Yup!! "Contaminated" food -- 10 pounds thrown out. New, CLEAN food fixed the problem.
My cat wants me to hold his paw every night and we sleep like that❤ love him.
My oldest cat is nearly 18 only goes outside to go for a poo or wee now and when he's done and ready to come in, he drags his claws across the front door. It's like nails on a chalkboard and I can even hear it from upstairs. I'm considering putting a second doorbell at his height instead.
I can’t think of anything CUTE or ENTERTAINING my cats do anymore. They’re elderly cats now, and their behaviors are becoming maddening. I guess it’s cute how obsessive girl kitty is about sleeping on my lap or on the bed, but it’s NOT cute to feel like I’m living with a couple of tyrants (she constantly nags and he... has random s******g location behavior). Yes, I take care of them. One of my companions is a cat lady and she makes sure every possible option is considered for their wellbeing. I never intended to be a single parent to filthy children that can’t communicate and never grow up. (Yes, I know how to read them; they still suck at even cat communication)
Stop posting about cats - they are killers. Domestic and feral cats kill wildlife all around the world and are responsible and contributing to the extinction of many species .
No matter how terrible a cat will behave there will always be someone to say "what a clever cat"
