Well, he's growing more like a dog every day and I'm becoming increasingly convinced, he at least, thinks he is one.
He comes when he's called.
He walks at my heels around the garden.
He collects pencils/pens and stacks them in a heap at the top of the stairs (he jumps onto work surfaces to take these)
He carries balls around in his mouth.
He has stolen my make-up brush which he carries around, both indoors and outside.
He buries things in the garden and then digs them up and reburies them next door.
And finally, he humps my leg all the time!
He's been neutered (January) and has only recently started jumping on my leg every time I go to bed. He grabs hold of the fleece with his teeth and pounds away with his front paws whilst purring madly. Not a lot else goes on as quite often he has two legs either side of mine, but as his back paws don't hit the floor, he just dangles there
. This all lasts for around a minute, after which he rolls over and looks so pleased with himself, I feel like offering him a cigarette!He's started going after Tim as well now, he's insatiable!
He plays with Tabitha and Fabio, but never tries anything with either of them.
I called the vet who said that it's a new one one her and he may need to see a behavioural psychologist (£!) if he carries on and it's a problem, or I can try using a Feliway plug-in (£30 for a month!) first. I have insurance but I can't imagine what I could put on the claim form
As it's not really a problem, more a curiousity I'm doing nothing as yet, but it's very strange behaviour. Has anyone else any experience of this sort of thing?
