Tony and I are housesitting for his parents who are visting the States.
Along with the house comes a small white dog, a loud sulfur crested cockatoo, 9 tropical fish and an extremely fluffy and bad tempered cat.
We spent the night away, and arranged neighbours to feed the pets etc.
So we come home this afternoon - to find that the cat has ignored the presence of his litter tray. Completely. And has a left a large, very smelly and quite sloppy deposit on the middle of the WHITE CARPET.
Tony cleaned it up.
The Cat is not in our good books.

The cat is probably just trying to tell you it doesn't like being left alone with a small white dog, a loud sulfur crested cockatoo and 9 tropical fish.

Hmm, perhaps. I'm not sure that justifies its method of communication. Couldn't it have just eaten the dog instead? (The fish are pretty much protected)

That sort of behavior is cat-speak for "I'm very displeased with you for having ignored me, so I'm going to make it so you can't ignore me."
Just think of Glenn Close in "Fatal Attraction", and be glad you didn't find the bird boiling in a pot on the stove.
