My Cat Keeps Opening My Wardrobe!
These past 2 days, Blackie has developed a penchant for sitting inside my wardrobe. The 1st time, I saw my wardrobe door ajar (it's the sliding door type) and so shut it. Later, my hubby and I heard scraping sounds but couldn't find the source. Then, when I was about to go out and needed to change my clothes, I discovered him sitting inside the wardrobe, on top of my folded jeans.
At first, I thought my hubby left the door open but he denied it. Since then, we've caught him opening the door several times and going inside to lepak on my jeans. This morning, he came in and opened the door at 7am! I picked him up and put him outside my room, and within a few minutes, he came in and opened the door again!!!
Even as I type this, I could hear him opening my wardrobe door again!! Let me go and 'evict' him first............aarrgghhh!
Why does he like to open my drawers and now, my wardrobe????!!

Re: My Cat Keeps Opening My Wardrobe!
he's a james bond kitty so what do you expect?
i guess it's because blackie likes the coziness in the wardrobe so he like being in there...
even my babies feel comfortable sleeping or just simple sitting in a plastic bag or any type of open bag!
as long as they're happy and not making a mess out of that space..
but if you don't like blackie sitting in your wardrobe becuase of hir or anything then you better stop him now before he thinks it's ok for him to do that...\like the wardrobe place is his mojo jojo or something...

wah! your cats love your wardrobe, too?! but isn't the insides of the wardrobe stuffy? hahaha, they have their own wardrobe now? good idea, but my home is small, no place for an additional wardrobe for them leh.....
it's not so much hair that i'm concerned about -- all my clothes has his hair as i pick him and carry him whenever i'm at home. it's more to do with me being lazy to iron my jeans all over again when i need to wear them....he crumples them up!

my cats like to go into drawers coz they're nosy and always getting into everyone's business. plus i think they suspect i hide yummy things from them in there so they must investigate!
my cats, except for coco, like to sleep in wardrobes too, especially ninja fatty. he always jumps in when i open the door and he settles down on all my clean clothes. actually it looks cosy in there. i think if i was a cat i'd like to sleep in there too. he likes it when i close the door and will stay in there for HOURS sleeping. if i try to carry him out he will yowl loudly in protest and even growl! sometimes i forget he's in there and look for him everywhere. he opens the door by pushing with his nose and then squeezing his tubby body through the gap.
i go to work looking like a lunatic most days... cat hair on my pants and shirts.. once i even found a cat hair in my mouth.. at work!

oh yeah, cats are nosy. mine sticks his nose into every grocery bags when i come home from shopping. and when my hubby comes home from work, he'll stand in his way, and sniff my hubby's briefcase and laptop bag thoroughly before allowing my hubby to walk inside our home. my mum calls that 'walking through the custom checkpoint', hehehe.
i don't mind looking like i had taken a bath in cat hair, but still haven't got used to wearing clothes that look like i had slept in them....so i have to re-iron them, which is something i'm kind of lazy to do....i'm not big on household chores.
blackie actually stands up on his hind legs and open the wardrobe door with his 2 front paws. for lighter things like curtains, he'll part the curtain with 1 front paw before he walks behind it and jumps up and sits on the ledge.
hmm.....maybe i'll charge my camera's battery and take a shot of that when i catch him in action again.

Wah, vivien, so poetic ah....
but yeah, this afternoon i was thinking maybe he wanted attention....this morning he wanted to play with me, jumped up on my bed at 7am, pulled my hair, and then when i shooed him away, he jumped and pounced my legs, my body and everywhere else. i ignored him and that's when he went and opened the wardrobe. i had to get up, removed him, and went back to sleep, and in he came again....
