Cat carrying toys

Cat carrying toys

Cat carrying toys

Hey I have a cat that carries toys and cry's at the same time. My cat named Tibu (meaning chick in English) who is almost 8 years old.

She has this weird custom of starting to meow or speak ordinarily while carrying around her stuffed chameleon toy,the voices almost sound like cries.

The toy is usually brought near to the room where the family is at the moment. She has been sterilized and she has never had kittens.

Helen

Underwear Bandit
by: Pam

Our nine year old Calico, Buttons, scours our house looking for prey. She will start screaming and crying and show up with a toy, sock or a pair of underwear, nothing is off limits. I believe she is "mousing", she has never been outside nor has she seen a real mouse, but we think she is mousing, bringing us the "prize" and we of course tell her what a good girl she is and she is very pleased with herself!

After I tell her how great she is she goes to my Husband so he can tell her too; she gets all cocky lays down and has a bath. The best I have seen is her dragging a pair of long underwear down the hallway, screaming, yelling, announcing her accomplishment and trying not to walk on them dragging between her legs. You got to love her!

Mine too but with my shoes!
by: Kim

My cat, Kitty, is 15 years old. She has taken to carrying around my SHOES while crying. She won't stop unless I go physically take the shoe out of her mouth. Today I found her under the dining room table laying on top of my shoe. She will even carry around my husband's tennis shoe...and that's a really big shoe.

I'm glad to see that other people's cats do it too, but I wish I knew why she does it or how to appease her or even make her stop. She used to just do it to toys every once in a while, but now it is shoes and it's 4+ times a day.

My cat does it too
by: Jess

My cat, Whisper, is about 14 and she too carries her mouse around and purrs and meows. She treats it like it is her baby. When she was younger she used to do it on and off but now that she's older she can do it three or four times a day, often when she thinks she's left on her own, and if she spots one of us she will immediately stop. She will also only do it with one particular mouse. Our other cat, Tyke, just looks at her as if she is crazy. It's funny.

Puts Them In Our Shoes!!
by: Anonymous

Our 8 month old Emma, does the same thing! She carries around a stuffed monkey half her size while making a kind of chirping, purring, meowing sound. She collects all her toys at night and puts them either in our shoes, in my purse, or in a pile outside the bedroom door! I don't go a single day without finding a toy in a funny place!

crazy cat
by: Anonymous

My calico does this too...she is 8 yrs old and carries up to 46 toys in one night. during the day she will bring the toys from the bedroom to where my home office is. Her howling is so loud that my spouse and I can seldom sleep a full night without disturbance. it's really funny.

Sweet kitties
by: Anonymous

My older 16-pound orange fella displays a similar behavior carrying his toys through the house while making a very distinctive cry. Often times we wake in the morning to find a collection of toy mice in our bed.

baby cats
by: Anonymous

my cat carries a stuffed cat around and makes loud meows. She usually just does it at night or when she is alone.

She seems to try and hide it in corners, under furniture or in the bathroom. She is so cute.

cry baby cat
by: Anonymous

My male cat, Jake, a big, burly, 18 pound pixie bob, walks around the house with a toy in his mouth making a kind of sad, almost haunting, moaning and whining sound.

This used to happen with just one toy, his favorite mouse, but now its any soft toy he happens to find, and with 4 cats, we have plenty!

to helen
by: shar

my male cat Minno does the same thing except it is always my socks. His high pitched yowling is so frantic. I really think it is a kind of attention getting thing.

I usually go get him and put him into my bed and cuddle. When he was a kitten i used to put him into my socks so i think he uses it to soothe his little soul. ha ha l love him so very much. Shar
