Crazy hound chronicles continue...

Those of you who have seen me post here before will know of our wonderful collie-cross who likes to snaffle cupcakes :)

Got an odd one now and wondering if anyone's seen it with their animals?

Since I started leaving for work a little early and OH a little later (she gets taken out for about 3 hours during the day so is not alone) she's been taking stuff off the airer or the kitchen benches and putting it in random places. Not hiding it, just moving it.

Example: I found a teatowel in the conservatory that had been on the oven door handle, a pack of baby wipes that were on the bench laid on the sofa and one of my slippers in the bed and the other on the windowsill :rotfl: none of them were in any way damaged!

Is she just playing a game with us? :) Edit: She's never alone for more than 2-3 hours.

BTW, anyone that read my thread about her nibbling - we found fleas on her and she chilled out completely after we treated them (though it looks like we might have to do it again!).

  • Yep. My oldest cat has an evil sense of humour.

    When she's in a good mood and there's washing on a clothes airer, she'll stop as she wanders past and hoik something off it. She has also been known for stealing socks from the Pakistani family who lived next door - nearly made it in with a bright green salwar kameez, once.


    The Defective Ninja Idiot Boy cat steals paintbrushes and make up brushes, shoelaces, dusters, scarves and anything that isn't nailed down.

    It's OK waking up to paintbrushes in the bed, toys, and even the occasional helping of crunchies that he's decided I must want for breakfast :cool: and brought them up one by one, but I draw the line at big dead spiders, flies, cross bumble bees and anything that used to live under the shed.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

  • Cheeky thing! Glad it's not just my pet who has a mad sense of humour :)

    Sure it's not just your friendly local poltergeist and the poor putupon dog's getting the blame?
