My cats bring me a sponge to wake me up

Lovely story Soupernan sounds like you are all going to have a lot of fun together.

I love these funny stories! I've always had cats, and one of mine used to bring me little gifts - the usual mouse, bird or frog (always alive), but also pegs, pebbles, and even a sausage from someone's BBQ.

Our wee tortoishell Rosie steals soft toys out of my GD's toy cupboard,she takes them into the garden to play with and then presents them to me as if she caught them ,After hunting the house for her we thought she must have got out so went to bed with the window open so we could hear her...my husband found her asleep in his sock drawer in the morning.Its a laugh a minute with them ,her sister loves an open drawer too and sometimes all you can see in a room is an open drawer and two wee ginger ears over the top of it

We have 2 mogs, both from Cats Protection, Oliver Sprout, that we've had for about 6 years, and Minnie, who has been here for a year or more (hopeless on dates!)

I'm utterly convinced that Minnie was a scullery maid in a previous life!

She will "steal" washing up sponges, those steel scrubbing things, the odd rubber glove and the occasional dish cloth.

I got fed up with having to get out a new sponge every time she stole one, so I set up a small box in the hall where I put sponges that were past their best so she could "steal" them at her leisure, so to speak!

We find them all over the house, but mainly in my husband's side of the bed (she adores him, and I think she leaves them there as an "offering"!)

She's weird, but we've learnt to accept it!

Aren't they funny! They sound lovely.

Lol mine steals my nail files and hides them. She also likes to be picked up and hugged. She is very odd x
