Ask a Cat Lady: Why Do My Cats Attack Feet?

The Lyrics:

When Your Feet Are Meat
By Sarah Donner

When all your friends are sleeping soundly on the couch
Thats the time
When your kitty cat is jonesing for a munch to satisfy
His appetite
And if their legs are twitching, its so tempting,
He has to bite
The fleshy foot is a gazelle inside their mind

Youve got to train them so your toes dont entertain them

You could try to play
Wear ’em out before bedtime
Wherever your guests stay
Leave a squirt bottle by the bedside

Kitties dont like it when theyre sprayed with water in the face
Like when youre occuping Wall Street and the police spray you with mace
There are solutions to this problem, like pennies in a can
If you rattle it, you startle cats or just clap your hands
Just clap your hands

Youve got to train them so your toes dont entertain them

You could try to play
Wear ’em out before bedtime
Wherever your guests stay
Leave a squirt bottle by the bedside
