Anyone have a cat that does this?

My kitty hasn't done anything too strange, yet, but he's only 4 months old, so I'm sure he will soon! When I was growing up, though, one of our cats wouldn't eat her food unless someone was standing right next to her watching her eat.
 
Eating quirks only, hmm? OK, our boy likes to "hunt" his food. He tosses his dry food off a counter, then chases it down. Jumps back up and starts over again. He's also figured out that if he yells enough, both DH and I will feed him wet food at different times in the morning. I guess that means he's got us trained. Diana
 
I have a cat that likes to eat Old Roy Dog food and also his cat food and also likes to sit at the door till you open it. When i am not at home my cat will lay in fornt of my bedroom door till i come home or he knows i will not open it for him. My cat is not really my cat he belongs to my mom but he thinks he belongs to me.
When his food or water bowl is empty he will come find someone in the house and starts to cry or when his water bowl is empty he will go to the bathroom tub and get in to drink the water that leaks from the fauct (sp)

My roommate has 2 cats Lucky and Tyler. Tyler was living at the apartment when I moved in. He's one of the strangest animals I know. He plays in water...he drinks the water in the tub after someone takes a shower, plays in the toilet, drinks the water from the filter in my fish tank. He also drinks from his water dispenser by sitting on top of it and dipping his paw in and licking. He also plays fetch..you throw a mousey and he brings it back. Lucky just moved into the house. He only sleeps in the sink. I'm sure his habits will come out. Oh yeah they both drink from the table top fountain that we have in the living room. Strange strange animals
 

My cat does not howl before he eats, but afterwards particularly at night before he goes to sleep. I used to think he was in pain, because he howls so loud it's eerie. Now,I think maybe he's singing himself to sleep.:crazy:

Tyler sounds a lot like my cat Tigger. Tigger has been known to play with water too. He's figured out how to open our shower door when we're in there and crawl in. We have a fountain for the cats' water bowl, and he usually drinks from the spout of it. Here's Tigger as a kitten playing with the toilet water:

He also likes to play fetch with his "mousey." In fact, he usually demands it. He's even figured out how to open the drawer where we store the extra ones by pulling back the hanging handle far enough to be able to open it the rest of the way from the top.

Tigger likes to shake his head with each bite of food, sending bits of it flying across the room.

Our other cat has the same issue with food "nubs" as noel's cat Pugsley. Tigger, if hungry enough, will usually eat them for her.
 
Yup, toilet water must truly be the best for drinking. Sink water is OK but that stuff in the water bowl must be really awful. :)

I once had a cat who was handy with his paws. He shook hands, picked up his dry food with his paw and put it in his mouth (sometimes ;) ) and open all types of drawers and doors. I once walked into my room in time to see an unmentionable slowly disappearing under the bed. He had opened a particular drawer in my dresser and had pulled almost everything out and was busily stashing it under the bed. Oddball cat.
