Hyperactive cats


Who else has a hyperactive cat today? Dylan's been hyper all morning, I've only just this second got him to relax and calm down a bit. He was getting overexcited about something but I have no idea what. Not a toy I know that.

Re: Hyperactive cats


Our youngest girl Sasha was running all over the house this morning. She was chasing invisible objects on the floor & sneaking up on unsuspecting kitties...silly furries!

Re: Hyperactive cats


Kizzy was more animated than usual this morning, she fairly raced around following me while OH was out with Monty - perhaps she just thought that she'd make the most of time without a dog in the house!

Not Leia! Her spurts of wildness are very rare, she's laid back and relaxed, if not asleep, most of the day.

Re: Hyperactive cats


Tolly goes 'Cracker cat' every so often. He cleared half the ornaments off the mantlepice the other day with what appeared to be an attempt at surfing...... I must give up polishing that. In my limited experience my male cats have had hyperactive sessions more than the females- all neutered so wouldn't have thought hormones?

Re: Hyperactive cats


I'd say it was about 50-50.

Re: Hyperactive cats


Both Kizzy and Pip have their "funny five minutes", but less so recently - perhaps they feel constrained by being more dog-alert?
