my cat moved.
She gathered all of her personal belongings (toys) and left me for my neighbor. I have been laughing off and on all morning. I’ve seen cats do some pretty funny and strange things but I’ve never seen one take all its stuff and move. Yesterday, she kicked rocks on her breakfast (it was the cheap stuff cause bills are up right now) and kinda stomped off. This morning my neighbor said she brought all of her stuff to her house yesterday and moved in. I’m gonna write a country song |

What does that say about you OP, if the cat doesn't even like you ?

I had a cat show up at my house last week or so. We feed one feral so he must've told the new cat. She hasn't left, she sleeps in my carport all day.

I'm still trying to figure out how the cat packed up all its toys and brought them to the neighbors.

I've read stories about cats coming back to a home after a year or so. They walk in and act like they never left.

Quoted: I'm still trying to figure out how the cat packed up all its toys and brought them to the neighbors. View Quote One at the time. She made several trips and dropped them all off on her back porch. It’s serious too. She’s had her sock monkey since the day we brought her home 2 years ago. Apparently she even tried to pay rent with a dead mole lol. She never tried to help out around here. |

Usually, when pussy leaves, they take all their shit and half of yours, as well. You got off lucky, OP.

I currently have my neighbors cat living in my shop. I removed all food sources to encourage it to go home. I hope

I had one move to the neighbors when it was a kitten. Don't think I had for more than a week.
It loved the neighbor's 4 kids, dog and parakeet. It would sleep on their washing machine. I think the constant noise was the attraction. Not a lot you can do if the cat decides it'd going to live somewhere else. |

I had a missing cat show up a mile or so away at a cat ladies house.

One of the feral cats we feed did the same thing. We were gone camping for a week and she didn't show back up. We thought maybe she was munched by coyotes, but the people at the dude ranch next to us told us she was over there. That's where she came from originally when her mother carried her and her litter mates over one at a time.
One time she got trapped on the other side of the creek after the little bridge got washed out. She actually swam across the creek to get home to us. We don't know what triggered her leaving. |

Never had a cat, but that is funny. I couldn't imagine my Lab packing up his toys and moving. |

It's okay, OP. I have two cats too many - you can have them BOTH if you want.

I'll look forward to the cat one. |

I think I’ve got the title:
My cat packed up and moved next door and the chorus: I saw her outside she didn’t meow, it’s like she doesn’t even know me now Completely discarded I’m a thing of her past, I guess some things never last The neighbor told everyone I’m no good, and now I’m the talk of the neighborhood |

Verse 1: My cat, she left me for the neighbor's house today She took her toys and ran, didn't even bother to stay Now the ladies in town, they're all talking about me They think I'm a loser, and it's hard to disagree Chorus: I'm the bum who got dumped by his cat The town's laughing, and I can't fight back No one will sit with me at church I'm alone, feeling like I've hit the dirt Verse 2: The ladies love to gossip, they crochet and they talk They'll spread the news far and wide, like a bad walk I wish my cat had stayed, but now she's gone Leaving me to face the town's scorn Chorus: I'm the bum who got dumped by his cat The town's laughing, and I can't fight back No one will sit with me at church I'm alone, feeling like I've hit the dirt Verse 3: But maybe it's not so bad, my cat's found a new home She's happy with her toys, free to roam and roam And though I may be shamed, I'll hold my head up high My cat's doing well, and that's what matters in my eye Chorus: I'm the bum who got dumped by his cat The town's laughing, and I can't fight back No one will sit with me at church I'm alone, feeling like I've hit the dirt Outro: So let them gossip, let them talk My cat's happy, and that's the best rock I'll walk proud, with my head held high My cat's doing well, and that's the truth, no lie. |

View Quote OP, this needs to be your avatar |

One of our barn cats left for a year or so, then turned back up.
Fat when he left and scrawny when he returned. Now he’s fat again, so…. |

Some of you might get the blues
If you woke up to this news I guess I should have read the clues but I just found out my cat moved It seems she didn’t take it well That I bought some food I found on sale She kicked some rocks and flicked her tail but I didn’t know she was bout to bail She grabbed her things then away she went and killed a mole to cover rent She dropped it on my neighbors steps and right into her lap she lept My neighbor rubbed it in this morn With squinted eye and a graceful scorn Then called her friends and filled them in about my cheapskate cat food sin She told them all I’m no good Now I’m the talk of the neighborhood I’ve an empty wallet and a broken heart My fridge won’t cool and my truck won’t start It seems my woes have just begun But at least my neighbor’s having fun Sharing life with my traitor cat Who’s eating Sheba and getting fat |
