Yes, another cat post
I always had cats and most of them were really smart. But this one is starting to impress me. Today he figured out that moving the mouse with his paws makes the cursor move on the screen (in this case, the wall, since I have the projector connected to my Media Center PC). He actually figured out the connection between the two things since he looks at each other one at a time and then just at the cursor on screen while moving the mouse in small movements. I concluded that since twice this afternoon he moved the mouse cursor to the lower right part of the screen, so he could jump in the wall and reach it as I already posted before. Is this normal? I’ll try to do a video with the full sequence since he did it twice already:
As any normal cat, after a while he got bored and found another use for the computer mouse in the sofa:
And to finish the post, a few pictures of the new toys I got from Ikea yesterday night, after the sailing classes with my nephew and niece. My flat starts to look like a kindergarten. This is my way to avoid that he adopts video cameras, cellphone and other gadgets as his toys:
Let’s see what will be next… Cat typing excel formulas? Cat programming in PHP?

gosto dos teus posts sobre o gato, vejo-te sempre com um fio de baba, orgulhoso do teu menino. Mas são uns queridos, não são? A Zsa-Zsa anda em riscos de sofrer do coração, com a porcaria do fogo de artificio do S Mateus, esconde-se durante horas.

It is amazing what cats are capable of. I sometimes think my two kittens are smarter than most of my co-workers.
