Is you cat left or right pawed??
Ed is a lefty.
I read about a study where cats were put at the top of a staircase and were observed as to which paw they used to lead off with.
Has anyone payed attention to this?:confused:

Well, no, I don't think I have!! Unbelievable, how could I be so unobservant??! I think my girls may be ambipawstrous! :D
Jazz and Scout seem to favor the right paw but my big ole Ripley is a southpaw. He always fights and leads off with the left.
hmm...never really thought about it!
I'll have to give it a try tonight
I have no stairs in my apartment but I suppose I could put Max on a chair and see which foot he starts off with. To tell you the truth it certainly hasn't been a burning question of mine.

Well, some of us smolder thinking about things like this!!
I guess I have my homework assignment for the night.:D
just tested her. She used her left paw more than her right
I was hoping she was a righty like me!
Nakita is definately right paw oriented. Don't ask me why I know this. My brain only stores the weirdest details!
Hmm... I'm going to have to check as they do sleep yin and yang: http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...3/fa2309af.jpg
My guys definately have preferences. Percy and Norm are right pawed. Willie and Tiger are also right pawed but I think it has a lot to do with their sight limitations - both have sight only in their right eyes. Pippin has no preference - he's just excited when he hits anything with either paw!
Awww, thats a very cute picture of them! :DQuote:

I'd say this speaks for itself....

OK, I caved. I tested Max out by having him jump of 3 different surfaces. He's definitely right-pawed.
Then I tested out Speckles by playing with her to see which paw she used the most. No surprise here, she uses both.
LOL - they look like they are giving each other "high-fives" - too cute!Quote:

Ally and Connor both seem to be "right-pawed" but the results are inconclusive - I have already interrupted nap-time to check their belly hair for another thread, so I am in danger of having a couple of fingers amputated by their claws if I bug them again!:rolleyes:
Laura's Babies! I love the picture of yours!! :D
Fister is left pawed. :)
This subject has also been discussed Here!
.... And how about you? Are you left ot right handed?
I'm right handed. My mom was left handed, but in school, she was forced to learn to write with her right hand. Back then, they considered it to be wrong to use the left hand to do the writing. :( But I remember, she still cut bread with her left. :)
Richard! You have me doing what to my cats this early in the morning?
It figures, I always think about things about two days later.....Quote:

I felt sorry for my brother....the nuns beat the crap outta him for being a lefty...It has to do with a belief that lefty's are evil....sinister.
Gini,
Have a cup of joe and then play with the kitties!;)
I shall have to watch the Fur Kids! I know that JJ3 is a South Paw , as when he fights or plays , that is his paw of preference!
I have never noticed. Will look tonight.
Felicia is ambidexterious (sp). In the litter box, she digs using either paw.
