A friend of mine has a cat that will eat shoelaces right out of the eyelets. The whole freaking shoelace.
I learned that the hard way when I was over there one night, kicked off my shoes and then found shoelace-less shoes awaiting me when I left.
Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry, and I'm armed, so if you two have something that you need to work out --

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Kitty wants to prevent humans from committing suicide by hanging with shoelaces?

I used to have shoes at work. Then I stopped giving a crap about looking good and I took all my shoes home.

Oh my cats used to do this! I couldn't keep any shoelaced shoes where they could get them. They don't seem to care much anymore. Mostly they like to sleep on any shoes I leave on the floor. Like kind of propped up on the shoes. I need a better shoe system...Actually I need a better life system.
But, soon, I will have Roomba and I think everything will change!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I mean, yeah it moves fast, but honestly, will anyone care if she doesn't learn how long it takes me to get to work? I think not.Yes, but we can be consoled with cute kid pictures and stories. You brought some, yes?
*props chin in hands*
Kinda glad my cats don't eat accessories. Though, a word of warning, Plei's cat wrestled my purse to the ground and was going for the killing bite before it was rescued. Not by me, I was laughing too much.

ION, I continue to hate doing work. Even on a not bad day, like today.
Why I gotta think about stuff and shit?

My dad once went to a party where the friends' bassett hound kept coming over to him, he thought to be petted. When he got home, he realized the dog had eaten his pants' cuffs.

I've known cats that do the same thing with ribbon. Unfortantely, the undigestability of the ribbon means it will make a return appearence, and not necessarily the way it went in.

I might have told this story... a friend of mine had a party. One of the guests was blind. Her dog discovered that she could easily steal food from the blind guy's plate. While he was holding it....

Before my puppies became dogs, they would simply eat shoes. No shoe was safe.
Hah! Seriously. And I'm sorry, I don't buy that search and rescue bit. Unless she also thought I was inside the CD case, and the chair leg, and that spot on the wall.
Oh, and Lucy had a puppy thing for socks, too, and she'd use those crazy sharp puppy teeth to try to snatch them right off your feet. Ouch!
