my guys have learned how to open kitchen containers by pushing them off the counter top. they can also pull open slightly open cupboards to help themselves.

they have acquired a taste for cat biscuits, bread, strawberries and mandarin oranges among much else.

what is of great interest to myself and Ellen Whyte who writes the Katz Tales column in the star is why our cats never give chase … even when these guys are right under their nose? my cats take mild interest but never make a move

ellen has some nice pics here :

btw i had the biggest laugh when i was in sydney at taronga zoo. there was a big cage in the dangerous mammal section near the lions and tigers, and there among all the foliage was just one little tree shrew fellow!

When you sell this house? Are you planning to do so?
