Cats

WE sometimes play in the trickle of water...but her primary interest seems to be in the whole process of dish washing and then cleaning up....

Mine have several water bowls, but one cat doesn't like to drink from the surface. He cups his paw and dips it into the water, then drinks from his hand.

My cat is chewing up cardboard boxes which are plentiful since I just moved.

The cat (Spike) gives me soo much joy

So our newest kitty Missy is fascinated by process.

She loves to sit at the sink and watch the whole ritual of washing dishes.

She loves the lacing up of winter boots with toggles. And is always there at the door when it is time to unlace.

Today it was recycling and garbage take-out.

An absolute joy to watch as she learns about all the things we do.

The wonder phase. The more they closely observe you, the smarter they probably are. She probably already knows how to do the dishes.

But she won't.

I think she would be an engineer if she had opposable thumbs and a computer.

She is as smart as a fucking whip. She actually knows that pushing the lever on the faucet can produce a result...and we have to keep an elastic on them to prevent her turning them on when we aren't around.
