Cats with Thumbs

Her Royal Highness insisted that I post this video for you today.



Now she's going around trying unsuccessfully to snap her fingers.

Who needs thumbs when you have an obedient human at your beck and call?

We have a Kitty who has thumbs. If he ever learns how to use them, we'll be in trouble!

Elena said...

HAHAHAHAHA!!! You must be a riot to hang out with! Loved this but sure glad I have dogs!

Suzie said...

Oh, I'm in trouble. I already have two cats that can turn door knobs and open doors.

The scene from Westside Story popped into my mind where they are all snapping their fingers, getting ready to rumble. .oh my. . .

And worst of all, my Queen of the Kitties was sitting here on my lap and actually watched this challenging display of power .now she's off in the corner, taking notes, and calling out to the others. I smell a conspiracy. .you may not hear from me for a while. I might have to go underground.

You always cheer me up! Love it!

Bertrum Thumbcat has his own FB page! Can't let my kitties see that!

Thanks for the link! I checked out his FB page and he's a prolific little poster, isn't he? I like how his profile describes him as a "public figure."

This is why I have dogs. I don't doubt that cats could figure this thumb thing out and band together for evil. Scary.

Oh our mommy said that video was like watching "A West Side Story" with all the gangs of kitties, she loved it. We told her we won't purrform any tricks for her unless we feel like it. As if, right? As always Your RH, you know how to make us laugh and purr.

Minga has become so adept at opening my son's door that he has to put something heavy to hold it shut so he can get a good night's rest. It would be okay if she just went into sleep, but she goes in to wake you up.

hahaha So cute! All of my cats at my parents have had thumbs for ages... (our cats and some barn cats we feed) but I think they're actually phasing out a bit. My kitty at my mom's doesn't need thumbs though...he is the king of the house :D

Hysterical! The day is coming.

Now that's a skill/trick worth teaching any feline! Rita (my past cat) was very difficult when she needed these clipped! Not to say HRH is of course!!!

Unknown said...
