Ok, someone point me to the cat manual.
Ok, my cats don't seem to get it about what cats do, or don't do. I specifically refer to the following...
!. Cats do not like water. Avoid water on you. Do not go out in the pouring torrential rain for ages and immediately sit on your owner's lap as you come in, completely saturating them.
7, Chapter 3 - Your human wants to treat you, so don't turn your nose up and ignore freshly cooked Cod, chicken, lamb, beef, prawns or tinned Tuna, Salmon or corned beef. Don't just eat your Felix, and lick an occasional bit of butter, your human wants to share. Take advantage.
9. You have to hassle your human for food. It is no good sitting there looking cute, and occasionally putting one paw on the sofa and the other outstretched in her face, make a fuss!
!2. Don't let your human dictate when you come to bed. The call 'Come to bed with Mommy?' is supposed to be ignored. Don't give in, unless it is under your terms and conditions.
My cats must be weird.
Can anyone help?:D

Is Your Cat Crazy? : Solutions from the Casebook of a Cat Therapist By John C. Wright, Judi Wright Lashnits
Always keep the humans guessing
even going as far as sitting in the sink and turning on the tap
She does this every night, I followed her after the first few times she goes for a drink of water this is now quite a routine for her.
At the moment she sitting on her bed next to the monitor watching me and giving the odd meow I'm sure she's trying to tell me it's time for bed as she likes to have a bit of a treat and a fuss as she is in her 18th year she deserves every bit of fuss etc., I can give her and it don't really mind
her pulling my hair when she walks over the pillow lol, or
when she snores at the side of me when I cannot sleep, I wouldn't change her for the world.

Do not your nose up and ignore freshly cooked Cod, chicken, lamb, beef, prawns or tinned Tuna, Salmon or corned beef. Don't just eat your Felix, and lick an occasional bit of butter, your human wants to share. Take advantage. And do not go crazy about M&S posh cat nosh one week and when your human thinks they cracked it because they found something you actually like - turn your nose up at it the next week after they got every flavour in the shop
Mine has come into the dining room sat down and whinged at me ( for what I do not know) and is now staring at a spot halfway up the wall
Ha ha ha yes.:D
I call my girl 'Weather Cat' because she always jumps on my legs after being outside, so I can tell what the weather is like without having to look out of the window.:rolleyes:
My boy does the 'Cat in Sink' thing, I have to turn the tap on for him when going to the loo...:o
I suppose a more serious point is about the food, they used to love chicken but now BOTH have gone off it. My girl will eat a bit of tinned salmon, they won't eat fish otherwise, or any meat I give them. They like ham but I give that very rarely because of the salt content.
They eat wet and dry food for cats fine, and the treat I give them daily is the catsticks you can get from the supermarket, they like those.
I just wonder why they don't like the stuff other cats see as a real special treat?
Now that is weird:D
