Hey, friends! If you are a cat owner, you know how adorably strange our beloved feline companions can be. Today we are shining our fabulous ICanHasCheezburger spotlight on a thread where cat lovers gathered to discuss their cats' silliest personal preferences and quirks. The results were hysterical, let's dig in. 

One cat owner shares their feline's fascination with Earthy scents, describing how their cat revels in rolling on dirty items and even has a designated "dirt towel" for pleasure. Responses from fellow cat owners showcase a variety of quirky behaviors: a cat demanding intermittent petting sessions, another playing fetch like a dog, and one experimenting with different sounds to initiate laser pointer play. Cats with odd eating habits, shoulder preferences, and fabric obsessions are also mentioned. Whether it's winking, growling at delivery people, or an obsession with cheese, these anecdotes highlight the delightful eccentricities that make each cat special to its owner.

    I really love the very specific traits and quirks of my cats. Ex: one of my cats has a strong like towards anything Earthy and dirty. He loves rolling on mail, and he has jumped on the counter and rolled on a carton of eggs and pack of strawberries before. My husband and I have a thing called "dirt towel". After we have used a kitchen hand towel for a week - getting all damp and getting all kinds of food and scents all over it, we will put it flat on the counter just prior to washing it, and he

    I know WHY he does it, like spreading his own scent and all. But it does seem to excite him too. Cat tax included.

    No-Job9574. 6h ago My little girl will walk by and want you to pet her once, then leave, and then come back around for one pet and leave again, and the cycle continues until she is satisfied with the number of pets

    3h ago My cat is obsessed with fabric that's slippery laying flat on the floor. He will instantly go to it and go crazy. We got him a little mat for this reason and he hops around on it and goes feral. Good Needleworker126

    DidSomebodySayCats 6h ago If I'm brushing Purrcy and pull a clump of hair out of the brush and set it down where he can see it, he lunges for it as fast as he can and gobbles it up like he's starving. He also loves to eat clumps of fuzz or lint, especially if I try to stop him. He's never had a hairball or digestive issue despite his weird preferences, but maybe that's just because he's young and indestructible.

    khloelane . 4h ago Olivia Mouse, my new kitten loves to wake me up by licking literally the very inside of my nose or sniffing wayyy into my ear and she is relentless with it. I try to hide under my blanket but she finds me And when I am awake she all the sudden becomes aware that she wants lovies from me and she charges at me full force, shoving her face into mine for head butts and nose rubs. I absolutely love it but it's definitely a new experience for me since having cats my whole life. Vap

    Joe_Shabbadoo • 5h ago Alex will run experiments on my wife and me to determine which sounds she needs to make to get us to give her laser pointer time. The problem is our kittens also like chasing the laser pointer, and Alex doesn't liked playing when the kittens are nearby. This is Alex, being suspicious of the kittens:
