What a cat ~ a copy cat that is!
I'd never really stopped to think why the expression "copy cat." At first I didn't make much of it. After our other cat was gone we noticed Kit doing things very much as Doby had done. She'd started scratching one piece of food at a time out of her dish and then eating it. Recently we've noticed her taking big, long stretchs after she starts to move when she wakens. It's another "copy cat" action. This one she picked up from the dog. He takes great humungous stretchs when he wakens but he also stretchs huge when he is excited - about being taken for a walk or some other fun pooch activity. You guessed it. He gets attention noticed for it. We refer to it as his bow.

Copy cat - that she is. Who wouldn't copy if you could get a scrap of attention.
