Funny Cats. We have like three cats that live in the ground of our home.They are not our pets but they are not exactly stray cats either. One of them has this habit of scaling the door(the one with thin steel net) for chasing lizards.One of them also chases her own tail sometimes mistaking it for her sister's tail which sleeps near her.
