You could never say. Every cat is different. But, I think it happens. Sometime they'll still be playful and cute but, they'll have way less patience if they don't catch the feather. Sometimes they don't get grumpy. But, if it's a hectic house, like mine was when I was a kid, they just get fed up with the movement and noise. They know where the food is so, they lose a lot of hunt and tend to do a lot more sunning and/or hiding where it's quiet.
But, they're still kinda cute when their grumpy. Especially if their yours. You get used to their character. They usually have to be pretty old so, some don't make it, I'm sure. And there's no warning. It just happens one day.
That's our cat right now. She meows at the door at 5:00 am because she wants to eat out of the neighbors cat bowl. Otherwise she just sleeps all day and gets grumpy when you move her off the bed.

I'm so jealous! I've been looking at places to put my butt while I turk. They aren't cheap.
total luck of the draw. I've been hunting for a wire or steel shelf unit for my laundry room for more storage and that post just came up on Facebook's Market Place. I need to pay more attn to that thing :D

Ahhhh she's got one paw in the door then. A lot of those behaviors she is already exhibiting more than she used to. But she still loves to play so it's a mix. She's been into sunning herself in front of the glass sliding door and snoozing in the bathroom where she can be alone. We're a really quiet, chill household unless family comes over. Then they try to smother her with attention and she gets tired of that pretty quick and hides lol.

I totally agree though. She's my fur baby and I adore her and would do anything for her. Even if she becomes a grumpy furball ❤

Oh, I didn't mean to imply that it means they're close to death. I think, once they get grumpy they live forever.:)

I'd rather work at walmart currently because

insurance
regular, reliable, pay check. The only way I'm missing days is if I call in sick, there aren't slow days where walmart doesn't show up for work.
I don't have to remember to save for taxes.

But it's probably not as irritating for people that
have more discipline than I do. (This was easier a few years ago, I barely had to work to get the $40 or $50 a day. It feels more like work now)
don't currently need insurance
aren't slowly going crazy because they only time they go out is to get groceries and their only social interaction is the forum and that's probably not healthy.



anyway I got distracted
One addition for your list:
consider it anathema to be scheduled, micro-managed (or even managed), be told the "right" way to do things by people less intelligent/efficient than themselves, and to quote Despairagus from yesterday, "have to wear pants" :D

Oh she's a tiny thing, but she's had this food for a while now. A few weeks at least. She's just being MUCH more of a PITA about it recently. She's 3 though and 100% still kittenlike. She's never ever been food driven before this flavor, though!

She also gets sardines every so often.
my one cat constantly screams around mealtimes for food likes she going to die, stares at the skinny cat and beats him up and steals his food if I look away for a second
