Ozzy, The Aqua Kitty

I talked about Ozzy in my last post. Ozzy is my kitty. I've had him since I was 4. Which would make him 17. His age doesn't show. He's still crazy like a kitten.

The only way his age shows is that he's going senile, and forgets we're here sometimes so he starts meowing and I have to say, "I'm right here." Then he stops.

One of his weirdest quirks is that he's obsessed with water. Ever since he was small, he's loved water. When I'd take a bath, he'd be sitting on the edge playing with the bubbles, or when washing your hands he'd bat at the water. He even follows people into the bathroom so he can get a chance at the water when they wash their hands. His second favorite place is the kitchen. He lives in there when he's not laying on me. He lays inside the sink. Every once in a while we'll forget he's there and when we walk up to the sink we hear a meow come from it. His favorite place is the bathroom shower. He loves being in there. He doesn't just stand outside, he must come in and be with the water.

Somehow, he always knows that I'm gonna take a shower because he gets really jumpy and vocal. As I head to the shower he walks in front of me looking back every second or so to make sure I'm there while meowing constantly. When I get into the bathroom, he goes right into the shower and meows even louder than before. When I finally turn the water on he gets an initial splashing and runs out to lick himself off. Once I get in, he follows suit, and just sits there licking at the water and watching. He's a strange one, he is.

Never ever, lock him out while you're taking a shower. He freaks the fuck out. He starts yowling and screaming outside the door. He gets up and starts trying to turn the doorknob with his paws, and he does this the whole time you're in the shower.

Yes, he's named after Ozzy Osbourne.
