Cats are quirky. Every cat has a different personality, and they all do weird things. TikTok user ltrain polled her followers to see their cats’ weird habits. She started with her cat, Gatsby. Towel time is a required practice when anyone finishes a shower. They must allow the cat to snuggle on the towel on their lap for at least two minutes.

The followers did not disappoint. While some of these weird cat habits can be attributed to owner spoilage, many are just quirks. Cats decide they’re going to do something, and they just do it.
1. My Weird Cat Demands “Car Wash Time”
Em’s black cat demands car wash time. If she cannot walk through Em’s wet hair she has fits and will bite.
It’s pretty bad when you have to regulate the length of your hair to keep a weird cat happy.
2. My Weird Cat Won’t Jump (It Can Jump, It Just Won’t)
Lazy cats must be everywhere because under the first comment about a cat that won’t jump, 21 other cat owners described similar scenarios with their own feline princesses.
Who knew cats were this lazy and entitled? OK, yes. Anyone who owns a cat knows this.
3. Cat Summons Everyone For Whipped Cream Treats
When this cat owner buys a can of whipped cream, her oldest cat sounds an “unholy” call to summon the entire crew.
If the scream is that unholy, the argument for homemade whipped cream is strong.
4. Rotisserie Chicken Please, Fresh Only
Most cats will eat any chicken, but this user’s weird son won’t touch it if it’s been reheated in the microwave.
My cats can smell chicken from three doors away and will come running.
5. Q-Tip Fetishes Are A Thing For Some Weird Cats
Many cats love to play with toiletries and hair ties. For some cats who prefer Q-Tips, their obsession borders on being a fetish.
Most cats will chase them all over the house. This should be your hint to clean under the stove.
6. Some Weird Cats Are Attention Seeking And Have Separation Anxiety
Cats who are particularly close to their chosen human might develop separation anxiety. These cats will sit by the door waiting until the owner gets home. Some demand immediate attention while others walk away once their person is safely inside the house.
Some cats will snub their owners once they return home.
7. My Weird Cat Eats Donuts, Breads, And Dinner Rolls
Many cats won’t touch human food but will eat bread, donuts, and other items.
Sometimes, the yeast in bread can act like alcohol. Your cat isn’t selectively eating. They’re getting a buzz.
8. Toilets Are Fascinating To These Weird Cats
Some cats are fascinated with movement. This can include the movement of water inside the toilet bowl.
As long as they’re not playing in the toilet water, it does no harm to let them watch it flush.
9. Pretty Princess Needs Her Own Chair At The Table
This might be a matter of a cat being spoiled rotten. She will only eat at the table and has her own little chair.
This must be difficult to explain to dinner guests.
10. NO HUGGING ALLOWED!
Cats like Karl are the absolute worst. They will not let their human get close to another human without running interference. No public displays of affection allowed!
