My cat Bernie is the same way. He has this new thing he likes to do that I HATE(only cause i don't want him to get hurt). He loves to stretch as high as he can & take push pins out of the wall. He's such a little stinker & knows better then to do it. When he finally gets one out of the wall he'll look around (see me) & then run. I have to chase him until i can get it away. I have gone thru my house & moved anything hanging w/ push pin up higher out of his reach.
