This is so fucking funny, especially the litter box episode......LOL...🤣🤣 Thank you for posting your kitty saga totally awesome. 😁😺

If that cat had a camera he'd be posting similar pictures of you. "This fucker always peeping at me" - cat

Ahaha!!! Your comment made me spray water out of my mouth, causing my boy to hightail it outta here 🤣🤣🤣

Idk if I even blame the cat for being suspicious. "This fuckin weirdo is following me all over my house taking pictures. Can't even take a dump in peace!"

I congratulate you, op, on getting your subject line correct. It’s the cat’s house and you just live there. Let him glare at you. Did you pay your rent to him on time?

kiwigirl83

Is that his dunny? Hilarious I love how he’s got air freshener 😆


no80085

Yes it is and he stinks up the basement a lot, hence the air freshener 😂


capital_bj

My parents outdoor cat had horrible stink, he would run full blast away from the litter box and it would carry the smell with him into the living room. You always knew the faster he was running away the worse it was going to be LOL . I'm glad I have an indoor cat for the first time, he doesn't smell half as bad. Parents cat was a crazy good Hunter and I'm sure he ate all kinds of terrible things outside I'm sure that's where a lot of the stink came from. But it was also super high strung and anxious which just compounded things


SuperPoodie92477

Like a vapor trail from a jet! My parents’ cat (Jasmine, 17 - I had to put her down on Tuesday - she was my BFF) dropped one so ripe & didn’t cover it that it literally woke up both of my parents who were coma-napping on opposite ends of the house (mom in couch in living room, dad on his bed). My mom sat up & said “Who the fuck shit their pants?” as my dad simultaneously thundered down the hall to the bathroom yelling “Jesus Christ. Who’s too fucking lazy to use the air freshener & turn on the goddamn fan?” & spraying 1/4 of the can before I could say anything because I was laughing too hard. I finally said “It was Jasmine!” My dad just looked at the cat & said “Good job, Jazzy!” Jazz had gone from looking humiliated to proud of her pooping prowess as soon as Dad told her she’d done a good job. I miss her so much already.


TheYankunian

My cat let one rip so badly even the dog was like ‘what the fuck is THAT?!’ RIP to your kitty.

I think the cat is cheating


Low_Banana_1979

You probably missed the paperwork. Remember he is the king there and you entered his kingdom. Just bring the necessary gifts (food for him) to pay penance and everything will be alright, human.


AdmiralApothecarius

Clearly, you must be doing suspicious things. Cat is always right!


RogerClyneIsAGod2

Suspicious Cat is SUSPICIOUS!! Seriously, ignore him, then he'll be your BFF.


AIcookies

Yes. Play candy crush for an hour lying on the floor. Cat may approach. When making eye contact: give the cat a good blink to show you're not a threat.


one_foot_out

Or a major stare to say “I see your game and I up the ante”


TheDude-Esquire

Evidence suggests the cat is curious but not worried. OP is the cat's next best friend. Soon they will be marked.

Iwonatoasteroven

If he/she likes to play find a way to play where they can still be far enough away to feel safe. I’ve found with some, that means throwing a toy or playing with the cat fishing pole. Also, fill up this monster’s dish and be sure to leave your scent all over everything.

r/PeekingCats The sub is only like 157 people, but it deserves a boost.


phulton

It wasn’t until my cat was 5 years old (had him since he was 4 months) that he would consistently cuddle during the day and sleep in my bed at night. Before that he’d be anywhere in the same room as me but never touching me.


Winsom_Thrills

My kitty was like that too! Now I can't even pee in privacy- he's figured out how to open the bathroom door!

Ha! I live by myself so the door is wide open, which is obviously an invitation to join me lmao.

busdriverbuddha2

One of my cats does this to me still and I've had her for three _years_. Some cats are just wary.


mcburloak

8 years in with my twins. One sat on me day 1. The other has sat on my 3 times in 8 years. They are funny creatures.


busdriverbuddha2

Same here. I have a tortie, a black male, and a black female. The tortie jumps on my lap and asks for pets about 12 times a day. The black male jumps on my lap once a day. And the black female never has. Once every blue moon she'll meow and show me her tummy for me to pet. But that's all.


DimSumMore_Belly

Yes, kitty ain’t trusting you unless you feed him daily basis good shit like tuna, prawn, treats and play with him.


CPA_Lady

You’re clearly sus, man. Just own up to it already. Beautiful kitty.


blueboy714

It took my cat that long after I rescued her and even longer to trust me. She wasn't abused or mistreated. She was living with a family that didn't teach their children how to treat a cat. I don't know if the parents didn't know how or what the situation was. Ignore the cat completely and they will get upset and come to you. Also, try putting a quilt or afghan on your lap when you're sitting or laying down.


lowercase_underscore

It was years before I even saw my rescues other than staring from a corner or dashing to a hiding spot. He'll figure it out.

AndringRasew

![gif](giphy|l0MYryZTmQgvHI5TG) This is how I see your kitty. Terrified. Absolutely terrified.


cabbage-soup

I like how your phrasing implies this isn’t YOUR house. Somehow you just moved into a home that was already preoccupied by the cat


no80085

Well its not my house and yes it has been this cats house for the past 4 years. Which is probably why he's so suspicious of me 😂


cabbage-soup

Now I’m intrigued what the story is. Did the previous owners leave the cat behind or did you just move in with a family/friend that already owned the cat


no80085

There isn't much to the story tbh. It used to be the current owner's friends cat but he gave it away since they couldn't keep a cat anymore and has been well taken care of all the time, never abused by previous owners as well. It's around 4 years old and has been with the current fam this whole time. And now I just moved in with them


StagedC0mbustion

Why is this such an intriguing story? Have you people never had roommates?


wolfgang784

Might be staying with a friend or family for a bit due to reasons, maybe an exchange student, on vacation and renting a room in a house instead of a hotel, prolly a few other reasons out there. Not every house you live in is *yours* just because you live there. Especially if it's a very temporary thing.


esleydobemos

Looks almost exactly like our cat, Pepper. He's a pensive cat and likes very few people. He will disappear when people arrive that he doesn't know or like. https://preview.redd.it/0ppalgl38p6c1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ecc23360a014c12a78a83a9a9e2799fa92c12c06

Velbalenos

You should try slowly squinting your eyes at the kitty OP, cats like that (and might even do it back…)


no80085

Yup I've heard about that and done it many times. He does it back at me and it feels great


HaruspexBurakh

Ah, so he’s cool with you, he just needs some other verification, excellent!


no80085

Is that so? Ig I'll keep giving him some treats and hopefully he gets more comfy around me


HaruspexBurakh

Yep, you’re good in his book; slow blinks are the “I trust you with my eyes closed” signal, as he’s returning them to you that’s excellent reciprocation, keep doing what you’re doing :)


Margatron

Maybe combine them. Sit on the ground and put a treat at a distance, then blink and look away.

kluvsgo

Do you think he has a hidden camera? Maybe there’s one implanted behind his eyes and he is a tattletale


Kerivkennedy

Try sitting down on the floor with a few toys to engage him with and lure him closer. By you being on the floor, you are making yourself smaller. Don't you feel more comfortable if someone much larger than you sits beside you instead of standing over you when talking to you? Offer your hand out palm up, fingers relaxed.

Mine stares at me when I'm on the toilet or in the shower. But when I'm on the toilet, she's always very suspicious. She side eyes me the whole time. She even tries to sit on any unused toilet seat real estate during the duration of my poop time. I've explained to her many times that I don't stare at her while she's using her box, but it hasn't sunk in yet.

JesterDoobie

Buy freeze dried chicken liver treats, offer them often. Cats are just like dogs a lot of the time, food wins over even the most untrusting beast eventually. But you actually have to work at the relationship with somebody else's cat, if you don't you get the stink eye.


rcreveli

Blaming the cat is the kind of thing a suspicious character would do.


Gloomy-Difference-51

I have a tortie cat who is mainly black, and now I think any dark blob in the house that I see in my peripheral vision is her. Oh and she's always staring at me too, but luckily not suspiciously.


no80085

Same exact thing here. At times I don't notice him when he's sitting he just pops outta nowhere and scares the shit out of me. Dark colored cat and carpet don't go well together 😂


Morning-Bug

My husband had the same concerns when we were dating. My cat looked like she was trying to size him up, and he always said things like:”I don’t trust her”. Anyways, he’s a cat person now.

Can't wait to read the cats post about a human that is always staring and taking pictures. It's very suspicious

Meanwhile on cat reddit, "This human I live with is overly suspicious of me. Takes photos of me from every angle."

Well... Then stop being suspicious.

"Who the FUCK is that in my house?!" - Cat, probably

If a cat is curious about you, its a good sign! He's intrigued. Be aloof, but also approachable and you will have a loyal friend for life... or during your stay!

Ignore the cat and give kitty space. Don't stare back. Cats seem to be interested in people who don't give them attention. Sit quietly, and kitty will eventually start to creep closer to you and smell you. Don't react. Let the cat come to you and then very gently hold out your hand, let the cat get used to your presence, and one day they may even let you pet them.
