Indicating to cats

Titz Towers, North Notts

Last night on my way home from a show, I indicated to turn right. The road was empty apart from a cat strolling across the road 20 yards beyond my turn. The only reason I indicated was to let the cat know it didn't have to rush across the road and could continue to do so leisurely.

So, my question to you all is,

What was the last thing you did, that seemed perfectly logical at the time and then 5 minutes later, appeared to be something that if used in a mental health hearing against you...

...Up on the Downs

I did the opposite once - found myself giving my ex-husband a subtle 'move back please'hand signal that my horse would have noticed and responded to...and being surprised he was totally oblivious and unresponsive!!

Haha, also made me realise that horses have the kind of awareness we can only dream most men will have!!

I said sorry to a couple of conifers, in my garden, the day before they were chopped down.

When I let my cats outside I say to each one "be good and if you can't be good don't get caught". I also tell them to "be bright, be shiny and light" and give them a little kiss.

Some people call me a mad cat lady, I just don't know why.

When I talk to my cat and he meows back at me, I then answer that as if we're having a 2-way conversations.

Me: You want breakfast?

Him: Meow Meow Meow

Me: Really? Well I'm sorry but I couldn't afford that brand this time. This one will have to do.

Him: Meow

Me: Well that's just tough luck. Take it or leave it.

Do you think to yourself "just be quiet and she will think you're not home"?

Definitely, perhaps longer, even

I used to know someone who was a sod for leaving the telly remote in the fridge.

You should ask my other half what I'm like with the TV remote and the cordless phone

If you haven't already seen it, check out the Simon's Cat short animations on YouTube. Hilarious and you can really tell he's a cat owner.

I think if someone printed out my forum posts from around the internet, gathered my family and read them out in a deadpan manner, I'd sound pretty crazy.

I was talking to my mum a few days ago on the phone and was telling her about a picture I had seen. I said I would send it to her via WhatsApp. I then proceeded to say after searching the living room thoroughly "I can't find my phone a minute, I will send you it later". . . Yes. . Same phone I was using to talk to her

Barry Cryer tells a wonderful story of I think it is Humphrey Littleton, who used to talk to his cat a lot. One day a butterfly fluttered into his lounge and he said hello to it. He then turned to his cat and said, 'I must be going mad, you know? I'm talking to a butterfly.'

I once stopped at a zebra crossing to let a bird walk across, me and the woman on the other side who had also stopped were almost sobbing with hysterics but it did seem perfectly acceptable at the time

When I went to view my puppy at the breeders, I spoke to her mum and promised her that I would love and care for her daughter. I go again at the weekend and I shall do the same again.

Strangely though I think the dog knew what I was saying, well she cocked her head to the side and looked as if she did
