HAHAHA! There's more than a nugget of truth to this. But seriously, I know some cats that will only eat when someone is standing guard over them. By instinct, cats that have closely bonded will guard one another when eating or toileting because they're at their most vulnerable during these activities.
Yes, my cat stands watch outside the bathroom when I'm in there. On my way out, I make sure to say "Thank you, Bathroom Guard".
One of my cats would meow in alarm when I would take a shower. She wasn't stupid but couldn't grasp the concept of a human being not able to bathe themselves in the same manner as cats. She had the most pitiful and strident meows protesting my decision to shower.
Mine was an alarm cat, but for baths not showers. Showers she was happy to lick the water off my legs afterwards and demand hugs. Baths became scary to her as she got older, for some reason.
She was definitely active in her need for me to guard her while she ate though. I miss my grumplump.
