My cat Bill never pushes penguins as far as I know.
He DOES however love to play slip ‘n’ slide if any papers are left on the floor.
He takes my elasticized pony-tail bands off sinks and countertops, carries them downstairs, and plays hockey with them across the kitchen floor – until they are lost under the stove or refrigerator.
He is indeed the light of my life.

A most blatant violation of the law! I recommend that Sergei be imprisoned on a lap and skritched until he repents!

hehehe Does he like to be in there when you are showering? I used to have a cat that would get in the shower with me! He would sit there and howl, but would not get out until I turned off the shower!

Hi from Michele!

Did you put him in a corner? That’s what usually happens to us, so we start drawing on the walls!

Hi, Michele sent me, I mean us!

His guilt is palpable. Or I guess it’s shame, rather than guilt, since he’s a cat. It is my belief that they do it because they like to watch things fall. Cat as scientist?

Archie, my older cat, was responsible for the strangest cat/stuffed animal behaviour of my personal experience. To explain this, it is necessary for me to admit that my personal elderly teddy bear, Moe, has not been put away for future grandchildren, but can usually be found propped up on my bed. My cats , who like to sleep on my bed, don’t really mess with him, presumably because he is a bit heavy for them. (Although I did once find a cast iron trivet on the bed. I can’t imagine how they did it.)

Over the years, I have brought in a lot of little stuffed mice, and so on, for feline amusement. Generally, a new mouse will be played with, lost, found later, and played with again.

One day, I came home from work, and on my bed, all in a row, lined up next to Moe the Bear, were 7 of the little toy mice. I’m still pondering the meaning of this. Was it “Her toys, my toys, all together” ? Was it “She killed one, I killed one, we dragged them all back to the cave, let’s have dinner?” Archie looked very proud, but then he usually does. As he is a cat, his self esteem is pretty well boundless.

I guess I will never know.

Sergei has the exact same expression that my baby Boo does when she those naughty things!
