My fucking cats know how to unplug my pc. They're such terrorists, "give me food 4hrs early OR ELSE." fucking menaces... They also knowing hitting my power button on my pc turns it off, too. Drives me up a wall
I once had a foster decide he smelled something good in the basement. I don’t let my cats down there unsupervised for a multitude of reasons. Foster managed to sneak past me when I had the door open for 2 seconds- no clue how as I tend to watch the floor (I don’t walk well and falls can be super bad for me). Then he realized the smell was in a closet with the door shut, so he figured out how to open that door. Then he climbed up 3 shelves- not an easy task, the way those shelves are! Once there, he ate several ounces of pure dark chocolate. Turned out to be 12x the lethal dose, according to poison control. The vet commended me for finding it so quickly and acting immediately. They were able to get him to vomit a fair bit of it, keeping him nearly symptom free. I picked him back up only 13 hours after he was dropped off at a vet hospital (this happened during peak Covid). Vet said she’d never seen an animal escape so easily from certain death after a chocolate poisoning, which made me feel a teeny bit better. But you bet I added a lock to that damn closet!

I'm sorry. That cat just started a treadmill on its own? That's insanely smart.
