    Cats Christmas Capers

    Many people ask me 'are cats intelligent?'

    I always reply in the same way - 'No. they are not'

    But Oreo has made me think again. Last week, our Tupperware container full of chilles was on the kitchen floor. Mrs EO was mystified.
    That night, I was woken by a loud noise, I checked for intruders. nothing
    next morning , the missus found the Tupperware on the floor again.

    The next morning, the rice from the Chinese was knocked off the worktop and scattered on the kitchen floor, the next evening my lamb tikka starters were knocked off, all over the floor, and one was taken.

    To top it off this morning, a bowl with a plate covering it, for microwaving a pudding. The plate was removed and the bowl neatly upside down.

    So here we have a cat that understands gravity, leverage and flipping a bowl by putting weight on the rim

    He probably is putting strain on the rim if he's eating chilis and lamb tikka

          NorPussIII (RIP) used distraction techniques when I was cooking to get me out of the kitchen so he could half inch whatever was tastiest.

          The most memorable occasion is when he pinched some ham and ran off with it, I couldn't find him anywhere, but eventually heard some noises from the litter tray.
          Now it wouldn't be the most hygienic place to take your plunder, but he had worked out it would be the last place I'd look and had neatly opened the packaging in such a way he could eat the ham without it touching the litter.

            Ours likes garlic butter (licked off the garlic bread if you aren't paying attention) and madras sauce. Order a chicken madras with garlic naan and suddenly you've a new best friend.

              Have you tried feeding the ******* thing so it doesn't forage for food

              Someone call the NSPCA.

                You never eat between meals? I find it hard to believe.

                  NorPussII will eat anything and I mean anything, it does not have to be edible as we found out when he ate all our blind cords.
