Has anyone noticed if their cat is a righty or lefty?  I've always
noticed that Otto uses his front left paw when reaching for things.
Recently I decided to see what tricks I could teach my two guys.
They both know "sit" and will do it on command, so I decided to teach
them "paw" next.  Treats are a powerful motivator and they both
caught on quickly.  I forgot that Otto is a lefty and would pick up
his right paw when I started teaching them.

Now when I get out the treats, he sometimes starts to give me his
left paw but then he remembers what I've taught him and gives me his
right paw instead.  If we're not in trick mode and I decide to just
hand him a scrap of my food, he grabs it with his left as usual.
