The cat just turned on my bedside lamp.
As in she walked up to it, meowed at it, put her paws on the switch, and turned it clockwise until the lamp came on.
THEY HAVE BECOME TOOL USERS.
Hide the tuna. Run like hell.

It helps that I do have what looks to be a very solid career ahead of me at Sterling plus this place is quite nice until such time as I decide I want to own a home, but you never know.

Perhaps a grant?
Certainly!

Date: 2004-11-16 10:52 am (UTC)So? cats have always been tool users. All of the six I co-habit with know how to use the TV remote for example. [they like nature programes mostly].
They sure as heck know what the can-opener is for, and have been known to dig it out of the drawer, and drop it at my feet as "hint" they want feeding.
Our alpha-male tomcat, K'zin figured out what the garage door opener is for, and used it from inside the house, to *thwap* the next-doors dog when it wandered into the drive...
I swear K'zin was sniggering as he did so.
It's just the thumbs thing that stops them taking over completely, which wehn you consider that's probably the only reason we're tolerated, that's a good thing!

Date: 2004-11-16 02:14 pm (UTC)Past that....good lord. You make me want to start locking her out when I sleep, for fear she's going to do something horrible to me in the night.

Date: 2004-11-16 01:25 pm (UTC)More to the point, she is breeding them for intelligence, and for opposable thumbs.
Then again, I've had cats that I will swear until my dying day would read books (they turned the pages and everything), so I've already accepted my status in Grand Scheme of Things.
