Cats don't like underwear
I discovered this last night.
On my way home from Blarney (where I had gone to people watch and relax over a couple of pints of Strongbow), I drunk dialed my friend ParadiseLost. After rambling for awhile, I let her get a word in edgewise, and we found ourselves talking about underwear. I only know one or two people who do not wear underwear, and I came to the conclusion that it was best for everyone to wear it.
Upon hanging up the phone, I realized that my cat was not wearing underwear.
Unacceptable.
So I went to my underwear drawer and fished out an old pair. They were turquoise satin. I didn't care for them and never wore them, but they were quite nice, really, for a cat. Maya looked at me rather oddly when I drunkenly approached her, holding underwear in my hand.
I put her hind legs through the holes and began pulling the underwear up over her tail. She became unhappy and mewed. I decided that she had a valid point: Bunching her long tail into the seat of the underwear might be very uncomfortable. So I put her tail through one of the leg holes instead. Predictably, this was when she nipped me and ran away.
The conclusion: Cats definitely do not like underwear.
