In use: “With floofanomics, decisions sometimes become difficult with cats. While dogs seem willing to eat any- and everything, cats sometimes shun what they just scarfed down a minute before. It’s a mystery.”
Floofstop (floofinition) – 1. An animal that leans against something, preventing it from opening or closing; a cat in the middle of something, like an unmade bed, or a floor, keeping activities from being completed.

2. A change of activity to quickly address an animal’s needs.
In use: “Getting out of bed, he opened two cans and fed the dog and cats, returning to bed in less than fifty-two seconds, which he considered a very good floofstop.”
3. A regular place where animals sit, especially as a pet in a home.
In use: “The cats’ regular floofstop was the corner by the frig, where they could observe several directions at once and listen as the humans scurried around, preparing a meal.”
Green-eyed Floofster (catfinition) – Animal who is jealous of other cats and displays this in passive-aggressive behavior.
In use: “Being a green-eyed floofster, Benji the cat would walk over and sit on Martha the dog’s head whenever their people gave the canine attention.”
Looky-floof (floofinition): a housepet who likes to follow people and spy on them.
In Use: “Papi is a classic looky-floof, following us around the house, close at hand to observe whatever we’re doing – washing, dressing, eating, reading, it doesn’t matter.”
