Glad its not just me then ha ha! Little monkeys!

Looks like I'm going to have to wear thick jeans then, !! I'm actually now proudley showing people my kitten wounds

I have also found that if we let our kittens come and smell our food and see what we have on our plates they lose interest and wander off. I guess they are just nosey

Smith did this for a while - but sharp words from me stopped him! (He's more interested in hiding behind a doorway and licking the paint off the walls nowadays)...

Dunno about them turning the nose up at 'our' food - I often walk back in and catch him sampling the residue on my plate... Ice-Cream, the next day some Pasta, and Twiglets the other day...

Re: Cats running up my legs...owwwww! How can I stop this?

Mine were the same. I found it hilarious when i first got them then after a month or so I went to give them breakfast one sleepy saturday morning (i was also a little hungover) wearing just my boxer shorts.

By this point my cats had perfect the `two jump kitchen bench` technique where they would jump from the floor, to our leg, then to the worktop in the blink of an eye. Normally landing face first in the food bowls lol.

The pain I felt was horrific as the cat pounced from the floor to the work top via my thigh!

The little bugger didnt even look back at me as I sat crippled and wounded on the cold floor as he wolfed his food down triumphantly on the kitchen bench lol :-)

Thankfully they seemed to grow out of it after 2 months or so.

:-)
