Well I know that Trevor would like to have you all believe he is as innocent as a newborn baby but the fact is he is guilty as sin! LOL! Yes I have seen him *working on* the basket numerous times. He has even gnawed the other side of the handle as well. As a kitten he ruined a basket that was filled with magazines and chewed off most of the cords from my venetian blinds not to mention biting dents in them as well. The thing that is sort of amazing is that he is starting to revert back to his nawtee kitten ways. Maybe he's having a midlife crisis?
