heehee so funny! Neevie really needs a great incentive to open cupbord, drawers etc... actually she never learned the trick of opening a shut door by jumping on the handles, unlike my 2 sisters cats - I think that's because she just has to walk towards a door for me to go open it for her, and now hopefully she's 2 and a half she might not learn. In a way it's a bit of a shame because I'd like to be able to tell people "my cat is so clever she opens doors" but it's safer that way... ;-)

Haha yes Alekto, you are lucky Neevie does not open doors. Just think of all the mischief that little pirate could get into. Ever since I got Ginger I know I need to vacuum under my bed, she find the biggest wooly boogers! Here we have knobs, my boy Buster would walk up and hit the door with his paw, if they were not closed tight he would walk on in. There was never any privacy in that house. Now my Beagle Bentley, opens the cupboard door where his food is kept with his nose, its a good thing he don't have thumbs!

Sounds like you have a pretty intelligent crew there Donna ! lol

We had three cats when my daughters were in Jr high and high school. (Samantha, the ring leader and the brains and the boys, Humphrey and Hank). Sam could open all of our interior doors. We always had to warn guests when using the powder room to lock the door. We use to go skiing every weekend, leaving the cats behind. One Sunday evening we returned to find cat nip spread all over the kitchen and family room. It was everywhere! The cats (had to be Samantha) had opened the cabinet in the laundry room where kitty things were kept, pulled out the large bag of catnip, opened it and they had a heck of a party! I miss that crew. Now we have Buzz and Baxter, clever at turning on water and flushing potties but haven't never even tried to open a door. I guess they all have their talents.
