She has a clever and effective method, involving her left paw.

Good advice then and now.

Looks a bit like this nice friend here:
Cats are wonderful but they may plotting to take over.

(2,015 posts)and as you can see by the lights in her eyes she's a bit of a demon but she is a wonderful friend. She's very palyful but she also likes to cuddle which is why I allow her to get away with all the shenanigans she pulls.

(18,479 posts)We have some who will chase the toy mice and some who won't. Some will chase the laser and not others. They all have personalities.
Some may have sinister plans.

(2,015 posts)Raven is just over a year old but I still constantly have to "kitten proof" the house because anything is fair game. She had to have surgery when she was only 4 months old because she ate hair and some of the bristles out of my hair brush and I have to admit I spoiled her rotten when she got home. She still will pick up anything small in her mouth, change, paper, hair ties basically anything she can pick up. The world is one big kitty toy for Raven.
I don't think she's resorted to sinister yet because so far she's been able to get whatever she wants just by being adorable.

(32,078 posts)She wasn't into yogurt, but she would do that with ice cream. I like to eat my ice cream from a coffee mug. (I think it's a Chicago thing.) When I was finished, my cat would dip her paw into the empty mug to get the drippings and lick them off. I only had one cat who like yogurt, and he would only eat the plain kind.
