Rule #3: CAT BODILY FUNCTIONS ARE CUTE.

Now's the time on Guide to Being a Crazy Cat Lady that we discuss cat bodily functions. "Why now?," you may ask. After abandoning my poor sweethearts for an eve, I came home to find not one, but TWO large piles of cat barf in my living room!!! (At least these were dry this time. Last time there was an unfortunate bare feet/ wet cat food barf incident.)

A true Crazy Cat Lady does not go, "EW! GRRROOOSSSS!" A True Crazy Cat Lady says to her cats, "Aw, is your belly feeling better? Did my little noodles have a big 'ol hairball? Are you better now, my snuggly-bottom-smooshie-wooshie-face?" And then proceeds to get a paper towel and dispose of the cat barf without a flinch or a negative word.

What about when a piece of cat poo decides to go on a trip with the cat? A friend of mine who is NOT a Crazy Cat Person has decided that these are "Poo-Mines" left for unsuspecting humans to find. (And possibly think that it might be a piece of fudge, since marshmallow fudge had just been made.)

A TRUE crazy cat lady knows that the poor, innocent kitty just had a little stow-away on their (usually zooming) trip out of the potty. A True Crazy Cat Lady says to her cats, "Aw, my silly little stinker-pantz. Did you have a good poo? Looks like you had a tag-along!" And then proceeds to get some toilet paper and flush the "mine."

We crazy cat ladies are not flustered or thrown out of sorts by cats bodily functions. We know that cat barf is a good thing because it helps get that big 'ol hairball out of our babies' bellies. Depending on the cat, sometimes it sounds like your smoogy-woogie-fuzz is coughing up his/ her entire digestive system, with a few other systems for good measure. Do we worry? No! It is just the cue to go and get that paper towel. (If you ignore that alert you might forget about it later and have an unfortunate midnight bare feet run in with some choice leavings! That is also par for the course.)




Scooping cat poop from the potty? Not a problem! Those little tootsie roll-like offerings in their potty mean that your fuzz butts are healthy. So you scoop away without a care or worry. In fact, if you own more than one of these fabulous beasts, you know who poops where and which poop belongs to what beasty!

True Crazy Cat Ladies are not thrown or grossed out by cat bodily functions. And we are confident that these puke-mines and poo-mines are just our cats' loving gifts to us. (In fact, for Mother's day, I got a big old puke-mine. I was so proud!!)
