| For the sheer delight of being contradictory (which he
does just to annoy me ;-), my husband has taken to
calling this phenomena "squishing toads", since he very
logically said that cats just don't knead bread, but they
could very well squish toads. Of course, since I said I
thought it sounded awful, he uses it quite often now! ;-)
Silly me...

CAT ARRANGING - that hobby which involves rearranging the parts of a
soundly-sleeping cat for the sheer pleasure of making him (or her) look
very silly.
I have to attribute this one to Andy :^}

| SCRITCH-SCRITCH-SCRITCH-THWACK:
N. The sound a 14-week old kitten makes after
burning rubber on your kitchen linoleum
and, being unable to stop, crashing into
the baseboard. Accidentally getting spray
starch on the linoleum while ironing tends
to enhance this effect to near hysterical proportions.

P.S. I can't believe she's actually learned to hit the top of the
can opener and make it work. I've had to start leaving it
unplugged so she doesn't do it when I'm not home. Don't want
her to hurt herself either.

CATBUSHING, the act of stalking and (attempting to) take down large
animals, such as your owner. Pretty funny with soft paws!
Hee hee, Rocky will run up from behind and wrap his paws around a calf.
Usually late a night, when the owner is groggy, on way to bed.

| kibble-dust - what your cats leave in the food dish when they will ONLY eat
half of a kibble...no matter how small the kibble piece is, only half
of it is eaten. The other half is dropped back into the bowl...then
the next cat picks it up and eats half of it...eventually, you find all
four cats looking forlornly into the dish - which you discover is full
of kibble-dust....totally inedible because the bits are too small to be
halved.
