Signs that Your Cat is Royalty and You Are the Cat's Staff

Cindy Thomas
Cats come in various shapes, sizes, and a nice array of colors. Some cats are the outdoors type, wild and free basking in the sun on a warm day, not confined to four walls. Some are semi indoors cats, just as happy inside as outside. Then you have the last type, the ones who think they are royalty. And these cats think they are royalty for good reason. They have a staff of humans that wait on them hand and foot, catering to their every whim.

So how do you know if your cat is royalty? There are signs that your cat has a staff of humans, and that your cat is indeed descended from a long line of spoiled cats considering themselves royal cats, and above having their precious feet set upon those things we call grass and soil.

First of all, it's important to note that one royal cat can come from a litter of regular cats, or all cats in a litter can be royal cats or just regular cats. The royal cat or cats can begin to stand out from their siblings beginning as early as about the age of four weeks, although it's possible the royal bloodline won't show up until the age of six months to a year of age.

The first major sign that your cat is a royal cat and that you are indeed the staff of this cat is when you attempt to put the cat outside. A regular cat will just walk out the door. But a royal cat won't walk out the door. When you reach down and scoop the cat up to put the cat out the door manually, the cat will suddenly freak out and spread all four feet and legs out in the widest possible manner and attempt to grab onto the sides of the doorway to prevent you from placing him or her outside of the home. This is a natural defensive move that cats with a royal bloodline will do to save their feet from touching the outdoors in any manner.

If you are lucky enough to succeed in getting the royal cat outside, and are able to close the door, you will immediately see the royal cat trying not to touch the grass or soil with their feet, and try to get back into the house. They might be climbing the door or onto a window, attempting to hang from a window, and just anything to get back into their palace.

Once they have managed to get back inside, it's very possible that they will be very irate with you, their staff, and let their displeasure be known by forgetting where their litter box is located at. The fact that you, the staff, will not have the cat clean up what they messed up shows the royal cat that you are indeed the staff and that they are truly royalty. Because you cleaned up the mess they made, they assume that you putting them outdoors was a case of mistaken identity on your part, thinking they were just a regular cat. They then begin to expect even more royal treatment from their staff. And true to form, the staff will cater to the royal cat even more.

The royal cat has learned that they can get almost any food they wish from their staff. The royal cat simply turned his or her nose up to whatever food is served to them, refusing to partake of the dish. The owner, also known as the staff, begins to worry that the poor royal cat is malnourished from lack of eating, and prepares special meals for the royal kitty. The royal kitty has quickly determined that by turning its nose up to the plain cat food that the staff will prepare much more delicious snacks just for the royal one.

When a cat owner gives a cat its own room complete with furnishings, it's far too obvious that this is no regular cat nor is the cat owner just a cat owner. The cat is indeed royalty, complete with a staff of humans. The staff has prepared a nice room for the royal kitty, adorning the room with furnishings fit for a king, and sure to make any regular cat jealous. Not only does a royal cat have cat towers, the royal one has his or her own bed, complete with matching linens. More so, the royal cat has his or her own personal and private bathroom to contain the litter box, with a privacy wall.

Cat owners that take trips leave their cats with friends or at a boarding kennel until the owners return from their trip. The staff of a royal cat will never leave their precious royal one in such a manner. The staff makes accommodations for the royal kitty to travel, and the staff even goes with the royal kitty to wait upon him or her while traveling. A royal kitty is never left behind.

Royal cats are a special and unique breed of cats. Their staff is the same, unique and special in that they cater to the royal ones and see to their every need and want. The staff for the royal cats enjoy catering to the royalty and their enthusiasm shows in the way they take care of their special furry charges.

    Why have a common pet when you can have a royal cat? I enjoyed this piece.

    My cat thinks she owns the place, and if you want the best seat in the house, just look for the cat. She has a favorite chair, and I would have to sit on the cat before she'd budge at all. I tried to get her off that chair before, and she looked at me like it was her right to sit there, and she refused to move. I'd say that's royalty. She's the queen here. Great article!

    That is just too funny. I've had quite a few royal cats, as has my mom. Great article!
