Cinnamon Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) My new kitten Nemo, who is about 15 weeks old now,is unlike any other cat I have ever owned. He LOVES water,to the point of not leaving me along when I am in the bath He is fascinated by the Hoover,& follows me around when I am using it,to the point where he gets trodden on. He isn't afraid of anything really,& runs to meet life head on! He is also learning commands & sits when told. This is a photo I took a few days ago. I was in the bath,enjoying my book, when I felt a presence. I lowered my book slowly,to find this, complete with dunked tail Edited November 16, 2013 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minnie&Moose Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Such a cutie! What a wonderful expression on his face. Our old cat liked to keep people company if they were having a bath - apparently he extended this to people in other houses as well Frightened the life out of one of our neighbours apparently, when her bathroom door suddenly opened late one night (she lives on her own!) and Max hopped up on the side of the bath, and settled down for a snooze by her head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 He's so gorgeous Cinnamon Sounds like he's developing into quite a little character. One of my girls has always loved water and jumped in the bath with me on a couple of occasions when she was a kit. Gave me quite a shock! She still likes to roll about in the still wet bath when the water has run out. Quite naughty as it takes a good clean to get rid of the paw prints & fur Another cat we used to have was obsessed with the hoover. She used to follow me around and flop down so I would hoover her belly- on low suction obviously! She was a bomb proof rescue cat and had no fear of anything. However, both these qualities in one small boy is quite something and the fact that he's trainable...! More pictures please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daphne Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Lovely stories Lovely photo Can't believe you've all had water loving, non-hoover-frightened cats. All of mine have thought the hoover was the devil incarnate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LottyJ1 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 What a beautiful kitten - such a cutie. I love ginger cats and they do tend to have BIG personalities!! He sounds like he will be great fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanR Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Pah. he's just doing what cats do, learning all the strange ways of the hairless numpty he owns. (Well perhaps not completely hairless, but near enough) When he has assimilated all the behavioral knowledge of this upright pushover, he will use it against you for the rest of his life. he is the Earth equivalent of the Borg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Chick Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Ooh yes, my Cicely likes that game too... I've got a name for it now! I needed to name it.... And seen as when they attack your feet under the bed clothes that is called "bed mice" I thought that "bath worms" seemed a good name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Any mums remember a toddler in attendance when you used the loo. I have a grown up ginger cat who loves to lie at my feet whilst I sit and comtemplate life? Could it be a ginger cat trait? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Gorgeous boy, Sarah My old cat Millie used to tightrope walk along the edge of the bath andfell in once when she was a kitten - I got badly clawed when I tried to scoop her out!

Seagazer Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 What a beautiful kitten - such a cutie. I love ginger cats and they do tend to have BIG personalities!! He sounds like he will be great fun He is such a cutie. We have a 20 month old ginger boy and both hubby and I agree that he's got a brilliant character, very inquisitive and cuddly - when he wants to be! We have his tortie sister too and whilst she's not so nosey she does like to 'chat' to us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 16, 2013 Author Share Posted November 16, 2013 Just thought I would update this old thread, as it is Nemo's first birthday today He is still a totally unique character, who acts before he thinks, dives straight in & is dreadfully clumsy for a cat...he is forever falling off of & out of things He still loves the Hoover & sits watching the water when I am in the bath! He is also terribly naughty & loves other animals,especially the dog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
