Anyone else?

Beauty & Pepi use litter trays. Even when I had Bast (& Chilli) and they went out to play, they came inside to use their trays, of which we have 5. 2 get regularly used for poop, 1 never used (so I swap it around) and 2 for wet.

I scoop these every day. Just recently, I have noticed that the CatSan is all over the cupboard under the stairs (the cat loo), but not thought much of it as having a blind kitten I'm used to mess! However, when I am using the scoop Beauty comes running to see what I'm doing; she also does this after Pepi has 'been'. All the poop is in now being moved into one tray.

Yep, she has OCD & tidies up! rofl

I suffer with CDO. It's like OCD, but I like to put the letters in alphabetical order.

Guzzi lines up his play mice on the bathroom floor every night. Sometimes they point the same way, sometimes in opposite directions. But they are perfectly parallel.

Unless he has taken Pink Mouse outside, when Blue Mouse will be left exactly half-way between the WC pan and the bath.

Not really ocd
But frank the guinea pig will lick my thumb before he stretches out on my hand for a long cuddle, but will kick my fingers to let me know he's ready to return to his cage

Mine did that too,always very keen to see what I was doing in her tray.

The tray got launched 2 days after she ventured outside for the first time though and that was the end of that.

Our dear old neighbour 3 doors along has lots of bottles full of water in her garden ever since Minnie's been allowed to roam the 'hood though. whistle

Should have seen her face when she saw me walking past with the dog hehe

My cat Spider lines up her catch in size order. Usually a family of Mice, all parallel from baby to Mummy size. I have a photo somewhere of what appears to be a family of four. It scares me. She scares me.


Not sure where to start with my Border Collie X. She likes to bark at everything from stars, to aeroplanes to thin air. But she despises mirrored reflections, when the light hits a watch face or mirror etc. it terrorises her like it has a personal vendetta. She MUST KILL IT at all costs.


My Lab has an OCD with regard to cushions. He insists chewing the corners before placing them on his head to sleep. Thus

I love how daft Labs generally are.

This epitomises him



Caught in a curtain shredded by my Border Collie who was trying to kill reflections.

my house rabbits bubble and squeak are quite OCD, if i dare move a bunny toy they get defensive and put it right back where it was or if i put something down that is in an area they consider belongs to them i get the thumping feet and then back turned on me until its moved

Annoyingly this is in my front room
