Okay, so my kitty who is almost a year old now gets worked up whenever I sneeze.
I first noticed it when I would sneeze and he would be sleeping by me. He wakes up and with his eyes half closed he does the clicky-chirpy thing that he does when he sees a bird outside.
I just sneezed now and he was awake and he did the same thing to me!
I know that my kitty is a weirdo with many things other than this, haha, but I was just curious – does anyone else’s cat do this?

That’s a picture of my baby on FI’s lap just for the heck of it. =P

ZOMGosh, such a cutie!
Sometimes cats get startled by things like sneezing – i’m sure that’s all it is! My cat does that clicky thing when I make him stop cuddling with me/get up when I am ready to go to sleep, haha. It’s his own form of protest! 🙂

LOL My cat Squirrel, for whatever reason, will (and he use to be alot worse) charge people meowing when the phone would ring, they would sneeze, or be loud. It is hilarious!

Such ADORABLE kitties!!
I have two. They don’t do the chirpy thing (they don’t even do it to birds, actually! weird.) but they are both TERRIFIED of my sneezes. I don’t think i’m a particularly loud or “big” sneezer lol… but in any case, if I sneeze, they bolt. The second I feel it coming, it’s like they know, and they immediately bolt. By the time the sneeze is done and I open my eyes back up, they’re out of sight. But if DH sneezes……..they do nothing!

Ha! My cat is a bit of a weirdie when it comes to sneezes! Or at least mine. When I sneeze, she comes over and then wants to snuggle. Apparently is means “Stop what you’re doing and snuggle me!” in her language.
My husband actually gets a little jealous that she does this, because she really doesn’t do it with him. Sometimes he will make fake sneeze noises to try and attract her attention, but she isn’t fooled. Hehehe!

Mine jump a mile and glare at me. And I don’t even sneeze loudly.

My cats leap up and leave the room. Hah, it makes me kind of sad, but my cats are not normal by any means!

@sleepyhead22: I love it too! Its SO cute.
@crayfish: Haha, that’s so funny. I wouldn’t be surprised if mine did that to me…
@ThinkingOutLoud: Good to know that my kitty isn’t the only weirdo!! =P
@Sweet.Sugar.Rose: Very funny! Oh my gosh, he is SO cute and fluffy!!
@LoveMikey: Aww… hahaha… poor kitties! Yeah, I’m not a particularly loud sneezer, so I guess maybe its just more “annoying” (how dare I disturb him) than scary, haha.
@Miss Apricot: So cute! Haha, maybe she’s trying to make you feel better. =P
@geekspice: Your kitties are so cute! What breed are they? They look kinda like Abyssinians.

My cat, Gideon does the same thing. It’s like the is yelling at me! Sometimes he’ll go on and on for at least a minute. If he is near me when I’m about to sneeze sometimes he starts meowing away like, “don’t you do it lady!” So strange, but so cute!

My rabbit, Spencer, stomps his foot (like Thumper!) when I sneeze.
Here’s Spencer while shedding.
