Cats and Cupboards
I saw a snippet of an item on BBC Breakfast this morning. Someone had written a book - I didn’t catch the details, and it’s not that important anyway. It was the comment about cats opening fridges that caught my attention - the author of the book commented that a cat that can open a fridge must be every pet owner’s nightmare.
Well, I got news for you bud….We have two serial cupboard openers. Fridges are at the moment a little beyond their reach, but time will tell. Nefertiti has been a cupboard opener since kittenhood. She has a versatile claw that can be used to hook open doorhandles or pull a door away from the jamb.
Being the tribes’ matriarch, she takes it upon herself to educate any new kittens. Often this is unsuccessful. This year, however, Ahmose has been a keen student. Yesterday, I heard a "whump" noise in the bedroom. Several sweatshirts and fleeces that were on a shelf inside a closed wardrobe were now on the floor and the perpetrator was sitting in the middle of the mess. Ahmose had just graduated, it seems.
