TBT: It has to be Lori! She's a tissue-puller and a cardboard-chewer (just like Iza). Not the toilet paper on the holders (so far), but she discovered a bulk package of cheap stuff I had in the basement bathroom.
A slight bit of explanation... The day I heard Covid escaped China back in 2020, I went out and bought emergency supplies in case things went "real bad real fast". Cans of soup, stew, chili, veggies; meat to freeze; and stuff like toilet paper, tissues, toothpaste, soap, powdered milk, flour etc. The brand name TP was already gone, so I bought a bulk pack that was left. It was really poor.
I ended up not having to use it, so it sat in the basement since then. Lori discovered it a few days ago!
She ripped through the shrink wrap and pulled out a roll, then proceeded to shred it on the spot.
I was actually quite impressed! Shrink-wrap is not easy to rip open. Well, I didn't want it anyway, so I left it for her to enjoy. And she certainly did enjoy it. It looked like this 2 days later!
And then she surprised me further the next day. She pulled out another roll and dragged it up the stairs into the bedroom!
I wish I could have seen her dragging it up the stairs and then shredding it. Dragging it up the stairs couldn't have been easy. I can only imagine that she bit an edge and the round part (which kind of makes a corner) or just the round side, sort of like a lion dragging prey by walking on both sides of it...
As I said, I am impressed! I admire her creativity and effort. I'll leave it all in place for a few days for her to continue to enjoy. I can live with it a while. It's not like 'Home&Garden' magazine photographers are ever going to visit, LOL!
But I will move the rest of the TP package to where she can't get at them while I decide what to do with it. And I'll probably reverse my TP rolls on the holders so she can't unroll them. Iza did that a few times and Laz did it once.
But it sure is amazing to learn what cats will find to do that you don't expect!
LOL! That is hilarious!
ReplyDeleteNever had a TP issue with any of our kitties, but Angel Suki was good at tissue pulling...
Looks like she had a wonderful time with her new found treasure!

Purrs, Julie
I used to do stuff like that too. Toilet paper is a lot of fun to play with. ~Ernie
ReplyDeleteMOL! Lori, you are one determined and skilled little kitty!
ReplyDeleteShe sure had a blast! I haven't had a TP shredder since my childhood cat Patch.
ReplyDeleteThat is too funny. I would love to have seen her trying to carry her prey too. :) XO
ReplyDeleteAmazing fun sweet Lori, we're really quite impressed too!
