A new theory on cat vomit

You know how the sandwich always lands on the floor with the cheese/ham-side down? Now, I've thought about that and if you ask me it's because the sandwich has only time to rotate one time after having fallen off the counter. Still, mysterious.

You know how a cat always lands on his feet? Right, well, no mystery there, they're just slippery little devils.

You know how if you attach a sandwich with the cheese/ham-side up on the back of a cat, you can't tell what the hell's going to happen? If you ask me, the answer is that 95% of the time the cat's going to land on it's feet and spend the next 15 minutes trying to rip off the sandwich from his back, and 5% of the time the sandwich is going to land first because the cat was distracted with something shiny behind you and didn't have enough time to react to the situation at hand. Still, a mystery.

Now, I also have a new theory relating to cats, that's kinda similar to the sandwich thing.

You know how if your cat's vomiting, the vomit will always land on your carpet. Mystery? No. A fact? Yes. There's also a reason for it, which I'm not going to explain, but instead I'll post a link and you can read about  it yourselves. It has to do with the cat's need to hold on to something while it's throwing up, and standing on linoleum you just can't hold on to anything now can you?

Mrs. Pammy answers a question: why do cats throw up on carpets

But here's actual the mystery of it. If you have a black and white carpet, why does the cat always vomit on the white part of the carpet, causing a massive stain the size of President Gorbatsov's head-mole? I have a carpet with 70% black/grey and 30% white, the white areas are full of vomit stains while the black/grey areas are spotless.

Mystery? Yes. A real pain in the ass? Yes. Do I think she's doing it on purpose? Yes. Do I occasionally feel like life without my vomiting friend would be a whole lot easier? Yes.

The reason why I'm bringing this up today is because last night I woke up to the sound of the cat vomiting in the living room. So, she had gotten out of bed, walked all the way from the bedroom into the living room, found a nice spotless piece of white carpet and started to vomit. I walked over to clean the mess of course, and to notify her that actually there was a white carpet also in the bed room, just so that the next time she needed to vomit during the night she wouldn't have to walk all the way to the living room.

Actually, there was also a nice brown rug available on her way from the bedroom to the living room, but that didn't do it for her either.

I bet Mrs. Pammy right there doesn't know the answer to this one. So it's up to me to analyze it.

It's a tricky question. It's the equivalent of me feeling a little "overwhelmed" in the morning after having drank too many appeltinies the night before and running from the downstairs bedroom to the upstairs living room just to express my "overwhelmation" on my mom's antique sofa, even though there would've been a perfectly functional toilet right next to the bedroom downstairs. Makes no sense.

Maybe the white in the carpet reminds her of a hospital. I mean, that's where you go when you feel sick, right? Although the only hospital she's ever seen is at the vet's, and that's all green.

Maybe vomiting on a white piece of carpet makes her feel a little less of a sinner? Where as vomiting on the black area would cause too much of a guilt trip?

Maybe she thinks she can blend in better (her being mainly white herself). This way I won't notice her at all, I'll only see the vomit on the carpet and think that the elves did it. 

Yes, that's it. She's trying to blend in.

Watch out little kitty, I'm on to you. This weekend I'm coloring all my carpets black. Let's see you blame the elves after that.
