Feline computer assistance

[MattH]

Our cat likes to help my wife and myself with our computers, but today she came up with a new trick.

Wife: Hey, how come my trackball isn't working?

Me: Because there's a cat toy between the ball and the rest of the device!

Wife: how did she manage THAT!?!?

I had to switch to an optical mouse (from the trackball-style mouse that came with my desktop) due to accumulated cat fur that had rolled up inside of it.

By the time I pulled out all the fur, I could have built a small auxiliary back-up cat.

My wife and I were away for the weekend; when I showed my wife how much fur I had just removed from the cat's favorite chair my wife exclaimed, "that's enough fur to make a new cat!"

My cat isn't much of a toy animal. Playing with a toy would mean she's playng by herself, and she much prefers the attention of some hapless human. She's a good girl, except for the whole " I love you so much I'll kill for you" thing she has going on. At least once a week I have to scrape off our porch some disemboweled squirrel that she lovingly presents at our front door. D:

Our cats proudly present us with critters and parts. "Critters" if we can make an educated guess as to what it once was; "parts" if it looks like a tiny version of the mystery contents of the plastic bags in frozen turkeys.

My cat neatly brings us the heads of mice.  She lines them up one right next to the other.

My dad has a cat that can ring the door bell when it wants in. Well not really a door bell, but he hung a string with a bell attached at the end. When the cat wanted out she would swat the bell, my dad would then put the bell on the outside of the door and when the cat wanted back in she would swat the bell again. It works really good. She even trained another stray cat to ring the door-bell when it wants to come in. That bell is always ringing!!
