Ize opened ur doorz & ize readin ur paperz
Oh dear, it's finally happened: Claudius has stopped being 'norty' for long
enough to work out the final door conundrum to breach all my security. And yes, I'm more than afraid, I'm petrified.... First when quite young he hit on the "jump up, pull down on handle and push" so opening-outwards doors were no obstacle. A few months later hooking open a sliding door was achieved. Right away hooking and sliding open a desk drawer was accomplished. Now, at age 2, he's got what I though only my hyper-bright half-burmese Kensey (RB) would ever get: the "jump up, pull down and unlatch handle and pull towards myself while still hanging but gripping the doorjamb with my back feet" conundrum. Absolutely nothing is now safe Added to which, the less physically adept Snowball the Ragdoll has the habit of pawing through and rearranging my piles of paperwork............... How long before they send for the renderer to turn me into kitty treats, I wonder?

Oh, no! You'll have to install locks on all your doors. A couple of weeks ago, I saw Roxy doing the "hooking arm through bar and sliding open the shower door" maneuver. I think she's smarter than she looks. Joyce |

Frank used to do this. It's pretty amazing when they figure that one out. Frank also hated closed doors, so he would sometimes go on a rampage and open all doors in the flat - including closets and cupboards. Be afraid, be very afraid. -- Marina, Miranda and Caliban. In loving memory of Frank and Nikki. |
