Your cat rides the roomba because riding a roomba is fun!
A roomba is a robot vacuum that cleans your floors.
Most pets are scared of roomba robots because they can be quite loud machines, but other cats seem to like riding the roomba — it’s like surfing… without the water!
Times are changing — balls of yarn are a thing of the past!

These cats are called bag biters. Many cats are bag biters.
This cat behavior is still a mystery. Some cats bite bags more than others. Most feline behaviorists have come to believe that cats can smell the odors in the plastic, and find it simply irresistible to bite. Also, it is possible that the cats enjoy the coolness and texture of the plastic. Other behaviorists believe that it may be a feline “oral compulsive” behavior, similar to a cat trying to “nurse”.
Cats probably also enjoy the sound that plastic bags make when they chew them. This is very similar to many of the crunchy cat toys that owners by for their cats. When cats bite their prey, usually it will make a sound. Therefore, it is possible that biting a bag is similar to hunting and catching prey.
Plastic bags can be harmful to your cat, so you should try your best to keep them away from your cat. If your cat eats the plastic, it can result in a variety of health problems. If your cat ate a plastic bag, you should speak with a veterinarian to make sure that your kitty is healthy!
This generally means that your cat loves you very much. Cats usually knead humans on the stomach or thigh area where the skin is softer. This may feel like an awkward sensation at first, but after you realize that your cat is showing you love, it is very neat!
Before a cat kneads, he will usually start purring. Kneading usually happens when you are petting your cat, or other times when your cat is extremely happy. Sometimes, your cat may even start drooling while he is kneading you!
Kneading is an instinctual kitten behavior. Young kittens knead their mother’s nipples to stimulate the “let down” reflex in her, which causes the milk to flow so the kittens can eat.
If your cat has long nails, kneading can sometimes hurt. So, if your cat enjoys kneading you, make sure you keep his nails clipped. Also, keep a towel handy to wipe up all of that drool! Happy Kneading!
