He's adorable. He's got that "as a matter of fact, I *do* own the
world" expression.

This made me smile.

It reminded me of my cat Meowzer who loved to play with socks.

We would play a game daily where I would hide a pair of socks somewhere
in the house and he would find them and they would be laying inside the
front door when I got home from work. I

I think that's adorable

I worked with a woman who couldn't leave her wedding and engagement ring
sitting by the sink when she was washing dishes. Her cat would steal them.
I suspect the cat was merely moving them to a safer place. Rings have no
place next to a sink with a built-in garbage disposal

No one is going to convince me that socks do not disappear out of the dryer
and turn into hangars in the closet.

It reminds me of an episode from 'I Love Lucy' where Ricky decided to teach
Lucy a lesson about putting her rings on the windowsill when she was washing
up. He took them and put them in his coat pocket. She panicked. He gave
them back, but then when they and the Mertzes were building a BBQ pit she
was mixing cement so she took them off and set them on a bench. And Ricky
took them again. She was convinced her rings were stuck in the cement
somewhere. Lucy and Ethel spent all night deconstructing the BBQ pit
looking for her rings in the cement. Then trying to put the BBQ pit back
together again. All the time he had them in his possession. Heh. I always
know where my rings are. But I don't set them by the kitchen sink or even
the bathroom sink.
