Cats Scratch Their Sticky Note Texts

Cat siblings have an awful lot to say to each other. In last week’s Caturday Doodle, Ollie made it known that he was not happy with Charlie taking all the treats so he left a kitty sticky note text on the scratching post, as cats do. We thought it would be fun to gather some sticky notes from other cats too and we were happy to see the sticky notes from all sorts of opinionated and disgruntled kitties pouring in.

This week we feature our friends Lola and Lexy from Lola The Rescue Cat. Lola seems to enjoy being groomed by her sisfur, Lexy, so much that she gets the sneezies. But Lexy is not impressed with being sprayed right in the face so she scratched a little sticky text on the scratching post for her dear sisfur to see next time. I wonder what Lola will think when she sees it. I thought that was funny because I can relate to Lexy. Charlie comes over to bow his head in front of me wanting to be licked on the head. You see, as the CCSF (Chief Chirpy Social Facilitator) I have an impurrtant responsibility to groom everyone and keep the peace. So it is vital that whoever gets groomed sits still, behaves and doesn’t try to start grooming me, that’s my job. Charlie doesn’t sneeze though, but he tries to groom me too and that’s when I put my paw down! Mmmm maybe I should scratch a special sticky note text for him too.

Cat Communication is sophisticated, yet really simple. Cats don't need opposable thumbs to get their messages across. They scratch their sticky note texts on their scratching posts to leave their unique scent and message.

We don’t need opposable thumbs to text

Who said cats can’t text? We do. We don’t need smartphones or opposable thumbs. All we need are scratching posts and cat trees to proudly scratch our messages for all to see and our message will never be deleted. Our unique signature scent from our paws ensures that our sticky note ‘text’ is delivered and the cat tree never needs charging! We are proudly ‘old school’ and eco-friendly like that.

What sticky note texts are your kitties leaving their fur siblings and humans on their scratching posts and cat trees?

Get those paws working, scratch your text on a sticky note and let your voices be heard. Chirp them in the comments below for a chance to feature in our next Kitty Sticky Note Caturday Doodle.

Love from

Mr. Jack (CCSF)

  • Cat’s don’t need opposable thumbs to write sticky notes, all they need is a human lackey…errrr…purrsonal assistant to do your writing for you. I do like the sticky note idea, with a Tribe of Five felines in our house, there are a lot of things I find annoying!

  • Whoa! Great art! I’d tell TW is a sticky note “Don’t forget you have a cat” cos it always seems like she does. I’m left for hours on my own while she’s in the next room typing.

  • Sneezing! Tell me about it. My peep sneezes all the time and unless theres a tissue to paw…. well I won’t go into that! I do like to check up on the news and I do mark all my property but as the estate is very large I oft’ have to work all night visiting everywhere. Still it is worth it and I get to see who’s about and all the gossip etc. AND its cheaper than the news paper peep gets, which I also have to mark too just in case MOL
    Toodle pip and purrs

  • Poor Lexy. I must admit the grossest sneeze I’ve ever been graced with was Bear and a mouth-ful of cat toothpaste (I brush his teeth every day). EEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. I love this series! I’ve been meaning to share ours …
    ps – thank you for linking up to the Showcase!!!

    • Phew! A mouthful of cat toothpaste. Gotta love your Bear Boy! 😸 and yes we’d like to hear some of Bear’s or Ellie’s sticky notes gems. I hear Bear is a master at leaving notes for all and sundry 😸

  • Oh my stars! This is just so pawtastic to be chosen for the Scratching Post Secrets! Thank you so much, Chirpies! I admit it, I sneeze…. but I can’t help it! (Most of the time. MOL)

  • I’d like to leave that message for my dogs. Sampson constantly sneezes in my face, usually when I’m down on the floor, so I get the full effect. The other message I’d like to leave is to Delilah who will shake her head and whip me with her ears!

    Thanks for joining the party!

  • […] Scratching Post Secrets Revealed by Mr. Jack at ChirpyCats – I couldn’t help but highlight this. WHAT message would your pet leave for you or another pet if they could actually talk? Here’s Delilah – Yo’ Sampson…stop being so damn perfect. It’s hard for a feisty gal like me to live up to expectations. Sampson – Dear Delilah, you know that the Mama will feed you two solids a day. She’s done it every day for 10 years. You can stop worrying about it. […]

  • How ungrateful, not only do i have to deal with the furball from licking your head.. now i have sneezeface! haha love the art! this was a cute post, thanks for sharing!
