LOL! Definitely, all that incessant grooming of the fabulous fur, gives them a distinct air of superiority. The cat's whiskers indeed. Posh can be quite distainful if she wants to be,

Hmm, do you think that there may have been a fluffy super-posh-diva-madam ancestor who gave birth to super fluffs?

Lol, I think that they're just doing what comes naturally! Some of them seem to remember better than others the golden old days in Egypt when they were woshipped!

And our three, Eva, Smudge and Posh are all female fluffs! They really are Divas aren't they?

Re: I am currently being told off


I do wonder why there seems to be no male cat equivalent of a diva....:

Re: I am currently being told off


Is the operatic equivalent Maestro? Sounds so much more respectful.

Re: I am currently being told off


None of my boy cats were ever diva-ish (drama kings?) Odd.

Re: I am currently being told off


Tolly certainly has a different approach but does get his own way too. He makes sure we know exactly what he wants. For example, if he wants food he simply sits neatly in front of an empty bowl and waits. If staff enter the kitchen but don't instantly fill the bowl he glares so hard I swear you can feel his eyes boring into you! If we have fish and chips he sits on the spare chair, again very neatly, and stares. If he wants out, he sits in front of the locked cat door and (you have guessed it) glares. Smudge is 'madam' but Tolly is 'his lordship' (poor Cleo's nicknames is Goofy but she has a totally different character to the others).

Re: I am currently being told off


Loved that story about Tolly! Reminded me of Sultan, who was the most imperious cat I've ever known. He knew the world revolved around him and expected only the best; he too didn't do the meowing and grumbling bit ...just the cold insistant glare until he got his way. Brothers under the fur!
