    Years ago someone did a study with cats and how they started down a staircase and which paw they started out with. I forgot the school and the results, but I do know the Edster is right footed!

    Cassie is a southpaw ... I am too! (except for writing) Swats at toys with her front left paw, digs in the litter pan left-right-left, and approaches her food dish from the left side. (my right as I set it down)

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    That is something that I have never thought of. Got me curious! I will take notice to my cat from now on when it comes to using right or left. Cats never cease to amaze me....

    Guess what? She was trying to bury a clingon yesterday - with her front right paw. (She was making burying motions on the rug. I've never seen her do that before. I don't know why she was trying to bury a poop that wasn't in the box. I just took some toilet tissue and put it in the toilet.)
