Sunday Funny: wired

February 10, 2013

Wonder what’s inside a cat’s mind?

All those catnaps yield one busy brain: best explanation…visual!

cat's brain

don't let the sleeping cat fool you...

    Pretty clever, Roxie.
    Well done.

    Love this. It is a pretty accurate model of the feline brain. I am with Claire – that part that drives the paws under the bed grabbing, snagging, clawing at my toes! And the Flying Squirrel part – as I watch my Jesse leap and fly in pursuit of soaring mousies!

      ooooh, trueeee, flying squirrel or as we call it the ninja move! Sirra, above in photo is by far the best at that of all the kitties we’ve had. so cool Jesse is adding entertainment to your life, Ann!

    Funny blog post. Thanks, Roxie.

    SO true, especially the infatuation with people who hate cats.

    • February 12, 2013 10:35 pm

      yes, that’s uncanny, or sixth sense that kitty’s have, plus when something in a room is moved, they’re the first to notice something’s up, again, they sense it.

    Yes — the ‘infatuation with people who hate cats’ part of the cat’s brain — hahaha! It’s not that I hate cats, I just don’t need the ones I’m allergic to to be rubbing all up on me as they tend to do.

    We had two cats when I was a kid. Ichabod and Wallace — after that — for some reason I became allergic to cats — not all but a lot of them.

      oh, Sandee, they know you well, hunt you down and find you, just to make your eyes water and nose twitch!

    So funny Roxie. There is also the part of a cat’s brain that tells the cat to zig-zag between your legs when you’re carrying a pile of plates. Also that your favourite chair is theirs forever. Ralph x

    • February 12, 2013 10:33 pm

      most definitely, or any other items highly breakable! hmmm, yes, now that you mention it Ralph, the most comfortable chair, usually one which shows the most cat hair remnants, LOL

    How about the predator section and the “I OWN this Person So Get OUT!” Section? Hmm? Clearly this diagram is lacking in the darker areas of the feline mentality. But it’s fun anyway.

    • February 12, 2013 10:31 pm

      ohhh, yep, Eva, the darker areas need to be explored, or not, hehehe

    OMGosh – where’s the ‘paws from underneath the bed’ section, as bed-maker walks around tucking in the covers?! How I miss our household’s ‘Butterscotch’ aka ‘Butter’ – what a really great cat. I miss his whacking paws – playing hide-and-go-seek with me – as I made the bed each day – and my kids laughing in the distance, listening to my expletives every time he landed one on my foot or ankle.
    It’s been a long, long time since you’ve been gone, Butter – and we still miss you, still talk about you, and YES, my kids are still laughing about the bed-making fiasco each morning!!

    • February 12, 2013 10:31 pm

      gosh, that’s right, mine loves burrowing under the covers and then chasing feet, either on top or under the blankets, and lurk under beds, sofas and chairs. Butterscotch sounded divine, the kids have a fab memory of mom and her crazy antics, LOL

    The illustration speaks volumes. I just took care of two cats while my mom was out of town. You would have thought they had been clearing brush in the jungle as much as they ate each day.

    • February 12, 2013 10:29 pm

      funneeee, Linda, yes they have voracious appetites, yet sleep for 22 hours!

  10. February 10, 2013 5:21 pm

    How funny! Explains it all. (RC Cat is refusing to comment…she is muttering something about a security leak…I’d be watching the dark corners)

    • February 12, 2013 10:28 pm

      yikes, Phil, I’d say we’re all watching dark corners, where the mice are now lurking, uncaught, to teach us a lesson, LOL

    OMG! This is sooooo my cats although with the invention of flip top cat food, they don’t react to can openers anymore. They have converted that section into supersonic hearing for flip top cans. Progress!

    • February 12, 2013 10:28 pm

      that’s true, Kate, mine can hear the clink of food bowls…
