' "Alone Time" in my bathroom'.....posted on Facebook by my cousin, who is a pet-lover (can you relate?)

My son can. He got up in the middle of the night to..... well, you know.

The dog was sleeping by the toilet. He figured, the dog, must have sensed it was cool, by the toilet. Who knew????

BTW - He is never alone, as the dog follows him, all around the house.

Quirk. THAT look would stop all peristalsis in it's tracks for me, the shy...umm...I have to be ALONE at certain times. Ya know?


It was probably due to early and rigid potty training in the 40's.

Can I relate? Nope, can't say I do! Don't hang in the bathroom... don't look like Lonesome George! So nope... can't relate... no siree!

I had to look up peristalsis.

I never typed it before. Is it spelled right? I TRY NOT to think about it.

Now, can you figure out what "reverse peristalsis" means?

I still don't know what it means... Didn't understand the definition!

Have a friend who owns a kitty with similar odd behavior

From the Urban Dictionary;

reverse peristalsis
n. the act of vomiting. (Peristalsis being the sequence of muscular contractions that moves food down the esophagus, the reverse of which would bring food up the esophagus.)
Sam drank too much. He's in the bathroom engaging in reverse peristalsis.

Holy Crap, I had to look up peristalsis.

I thought I had a good vocabulary, but that word stumped me.

One of my Afghans would not only follow me to the bathroom but lay his head on my knee expecting me to pet while I was trying to relieve myself. If I managed to get inside without him, he would scratch the door and whine the entire time I was in there. Worse, he would stick is head in the shower to make sure I was safe. So, can totally relate.

I have never had a cat that didn't accompany me to the bathroom. In fact my first cat (Siamese, female) watched so many times that she finally decided to try it for herself. I saw her perched on the seat peeing into the toilet. She never learned to flush tho.

Now, I do have a question, why would anyone admit to taking their phone/camera to the bathroom? Heck of a way while away time while seated on that throne.
