Raven
Raven loves to wake me up in the middle of the night. He decides I need a bath and cleans up my
face before chewing on my head and messing in my hair.
I love his sandpaper kisses but it’s startling in the middle
of the night. I never realized a cat’s
tongue was that rough, but maybe it seems that way when he’s bathing my face
and neck. It’s a wonder I have any skin
left. This is the coarse sandpaper
treatment, not the fine stuff at all.
Once I’m awake then he’s ready to settle down again for
another catnap on my pillow. Come
morning, I have to wash the cat slobber out of my hair so I can go to
work.
Raven’s taken up a real fetish for hair arranging
lately. He tries to play hairdresser to
everyone that comes into the house to visit.
I’m not sure what it is. Maybe he
likes the smell of hair products.
But I’ll never chase him off the bed. Time goes by too quickly and I know one day
he’ll be too old and will retire from his grooming duties. Then all this stuff will only be humorous
memories.
Does anyone else have a pet like this?
He does sound like he is a bit of a character :) Koda didn't do this, but when he would sleep on the bed; I would often get up first before my hubby, then Koda would come up and sleep on my pillow. Some mornings he decided it was time for me to be up already so he would come up and try to get me out of bed sooner than I wanted :)

So other cats go for the hair? When I'm over at my brother's, his cats will get up in the chair behind you and chew on your hair. It's bizarre, but apparently not unusual.
ReplyDeleteI think it's pretty strange that cats go after hair. This is really the first one I've had that does that. It's good to know he isn't totally weird.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading and your comment.
