It's incredible what my two Siamese cats can do with their paws. I dropped
a penny out of my wallet onto the hardwood floor this afternoon. Maui
walked over to it, and PICKED IT UP by using his two paws simultaneously. I
quickly grabbed him before he put it into his mouth. Gawd, he's like a
little kid!!! He also plays with his wool sock like this. He'll walk over
to it, sit down right in front of it, then stare at the sock and tell it to
accept it's fate. Then he uses both front paws and picks it up. Seconds
later, after it's "redead" again, it's tossed high up in the air some 20
times.
I won't even tell you the sadness of the Woolly-Sox screaming. <beg>

Sounds like fun! My cats pick up socks and put them in their litter box.
Guess the smell or something. LOL!

Ewww!! Thank God I haven't seen toys in there!! Altho' Oscar is
notoriously known for leaving a stuffed animal at the food bowl. I think
he's trying to pay for his food!! :)

Siamese are incredibly intelligent and have excellent dexterity. I had
a Chocolate Point years ago and he amazed me all the time. Like Maui,
he had insatiable curiosity and humor. RIP poor wooly-sock!

LOL, CATherine!! You should see Wooly sock and his partner (Wooly socktoo).
They've got holes in them, they're stiff from slobber, and they look like
garbage... but we all know that you don't throw away a purrfectly good toy.
Maui is a Blue Point, and Oscar is a Seal Point. They're both so amazing!!!

Well, after all, that's what they were bred for as temple guardcats - to
pick the pockets/purses/pouches of anyone passing through the temple
grounds...

Maui would definitely be for hire and do a great job!! Maybe I'll take him
to some public event and make some cash by his pick pocketing act!! ;)

Silver does this... she'll get something small between her paws (like
a twisttie or a penny or a scrap of paper), pick it up and put it in
her mouth. Then she tosses her head and throws it up into the air to
chase... I was worried about her chewing on things and swallowing them
and getting sick or choking, but she doesn't seem to try to EAT them -
she knows they're toys and not food :)

It surely is incredible, Wilson, my little Ginger Moggie, feeds himself
by using his paw as a fork, he has even eaten pumpkin like this,
he picks his meat up one piece at a time. this morning I was playing a
new game with him find and catch the feathery mouse under the rug,
he watched me when the stick moved and caught on, and suddenly the game had
turned around and he was picking the carpet up before I pushed it under. and
when I did he dropped the carpet on it as though to stop it
moving away. He also loves to be scratched with my pen, back scratch
or the pieceon the end of the cordless phone, and if I raise ittoo far above
his head {on purpose} he reaches op his arm and wraps his paw round
it and pulls it back to rub his face on. yes incredible is so right.

I wish I had recorded an episode of one of those "World's Dumbest
Criminals" shows, which was a 911 call from a hysterical burglar begging
to be saved from the demon attacking him.
Apparently, said burglar, who happened to be bald, was sneaking through
a darkened house when the resident Siamese, suddenly screaming his
battle cry, made a four-paw, claws-out landing on his head.
