Tonight's "Believe it or not" show featured a Siamese-mix cat who eats with
utensils. She was videotaped eating from a plate with a fork, from a bowl
with a spoon, and also using chopsticks to eat Chinese vermicelli. Did any
of you folks see it?

Unbelievable. But all those rich foods, ice cream, spaghetti, but cat is good,
especially with the chopsticks. But really, not all that great, she had to have
her paws washed before the meal... just so much you can ask from a kitty...

It must have been a rerun I saw, since the date shown on that page is in
2002.

That's true but for you and me; it was like the first time. Reminds me of
Thoreau who used to stash the newspapers in his drawer. And then read them much
later, months, years? The news seemed fresh off the press, as though it were
today's news. which in a way it was...

This was funny. But the video ran so fast I couldn't tell if they had
"attached" the fork, chopsticks or spoon to the cat's paw. Even if they did
it's pretty amazing.
