Y’know that classic ghost story by M.R. James–Oh, Whistle and I’ll Come to You, My Lad? The one in which the sheets on the other bed in the room rise up and start to fold and wrinkle themselves into–well, never mind, I don’t want to spoil it for you. Point is, it’s almost certain that that story was inspired by a cat. And in this video, you’ll see how that was possible.
That’s a game that cats never tire of. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been attacked because I moved my foot, while sleeping.
That’s one reason why it’s not a good idea to have a lion or a tiger for a pet.
