She walks between the screen and me, back and forth. If I give an annoying sigh, she speeds up to a quick step, but returns.

If I hold up my hand to prevent her from repeated crossings, she puts her paw on the hand that's on the mouse to make the movement stop.

then your cat will usually lay right on top of those doo-dads to steal your attention away from them. Remember, there’s no such thing as bad attention.

any longer. Our cat also likes to eat/tear up paper. So, not only is it fun to push the puzzle off the table, it's also pretty tasty!

Sitting there with hind legs spread and tail between legs. That's so funny.

They have four or ?five. 😁

I've known them nearly a year now? They've never mentioned a puzzle being pushed off the table, though!
We see photos of their helpers all the time. 😄


That Rainbow Puzzle 1/3 off the table?! 😄 Ohhh, dear!
