Some more “why do cats?”
Why does a cat frequently demand attention when you’re on the telephone?
The cat, since it can’t see the person you are talking to, presumes you are talking to him, and is responding to what he perceives is your conversation with him.
Why does a cat scratch the furniture or a scratching post?
While some people think a cat scratches to sharpen its claws, that is probably inaccurate. There are typically two reasons for scratching: the cat is marking its territory (cats have sweat glands between their paw pads, and scratching leaves their scent on the clawed object); or, the cat is “filing down” its nails and removing the outer layer
Why do some cats insist on drinking from a dripping faucet?
Cats - like most other animals - prefer their food and water fresh, and running water is most appealing for that reason. Too, the motion of water coming out of a faucet is probably appealing to their sense of hearing and sight. Some cats will even put their paw into their water dish and “swirl” it around so they can drinking “running” water.
