The cats rule followed by the other pets. Before Buddy my parakeet flew away it was him that ruled. He picked my puzzles apart and meticulously dragged the pieces to the edge of the table where he dropped them. He flew around all the time - I left the door open on his cage. He followed me everywhere and if you didn't give him attention your ears got nipped.
As for the cats (one in particular) Catrina (3yrs old) Will paw at the sheets in the wintertime till you let her under the blankets, She lays at the top of the stairs and will go down just ahead of you in the morning and head straight for her dish. She gets pissed if we leave her even for a trip to the store sometimes. She will stand guard at the door if she knows I'm leaving and bite my ankles on the way out. If we come home after being gone for more than a day she'll have found something, or several things to chew apart. She greats us at the door with rolling, mewing, pawing, and just about behaves like a dog when we come home. Lately she's been exceptionally aloof and grumbles when we pick her up. This is because of our SECOND cat. Or rather kitten. She is only 7 weeks old. Itty Bitty, has learned to get our attention by laying in middle of the path, standing on my feet when I'm at the counter in the kitchen, and even mewing like she's hurt and groveling. Both cats have learned to climb onto my desk and walk slap in front of my monitor or across my hands. They seem to like to lay on my mouse too. They'll attack me when I'm trying to type or use the mouse, at least until I'll pet them and scratch behind their ears.
