Annoying cat behavior and the moggy with a
mind of its own!

Don't get me wrong, I am an avid cat (Moggy) lover, but you have to ask yourself if these sometimes annoying cat friends of ours have any brains at all with some of the things they do ... like playing in toilet bowls, chasing their own shadows, freaking out at the sight of their own shadows, getting stuck in fish bowls, to name a few.
A frequent complaint from owners (myself included) of annoying felines i...
