My wife’s theory is that the cat equates our bathroom time to us being ‘vulnerable’ and that they are just checking in on us to make sure we are okay.

Little fuckers.

Mine will sometimes feel rowdy and chase me into the bathroom to bite my ankles. It's good to know that, deep down, he's just concerned about my safety.

part of it is that cats (like dogs) see taking a shit as being vulnerable, so they're keeping an eye out for you. Their instincts predatemodern plumbing.
