Freaky Meika

Our cats have some really strange tendencies...Addie licks plastic bags and licks the toilet paper on the roll or the tissues coming out of the box...she hangs around the bathroom faucet just waiting for someone to come turn it on for her. She is really quirky.
But then there is Meika.
Meika is on a constant mission. Not "to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man"...but TO BRING TO US THE SOCKS AND GLOVES OF MAN (or women).
Yup, several times a day, we hear her meowing constantly as she brings up her latest conquest... in the above photo it was a pair of socks from Breanna's "sock kitty" stash. In the photo below it is a garden glove from the yard sale room...from the bag of gloves down there.
Like clockwork, when I come home, I can count on finding a new sock or glove at the top of the stairs, under the sofa table, or, even on one of the kitchen chairs. She is getting more creative. I can always tell when Braden needs to pick up his dirty laundry, because I get his dirty socks instead of clean ones! Yes, if he does not put away his clean laundry, she will get into the basket and take out the folded pairs of clean socks and bring those up for me as well.
Thanks Meika, we don't know what we would do without you...good luck Austin, Laura and Breanna with our freaky cats!

Well, of course our Ashli can one up Meika---she brings us Breanna's finished sock kitties, not just socks. But her latest fave is to drag a long fleece ribbon that happens to be attached to a plastic handle...across the laminate floor in the middle of the night. Overnight guests could get pretty spooked here.

my favorite was kashmir who'd get into the hall closet and climb shelves to get any unblown balloons out - and then we could throw them and he'd fetch & return.
