Female Cats Are Right-Pawed, Males Are Lefties

July 23, 2009 -- Female domestic cats tend to preferentially use their right front paw while male cats more often rely upon their left front paw, according to a new study that suggests the sex of a cat determines how its brain will be wired.

The findings also add to a growing body of evidence that male animals tend to be left-handed, or in this case left-pawed, more often than females. While 90 percent of all humans are right-handed, of the remaining southpaws, more tend to be men.

The differences are even clearer among cats.

"Our results suggest that there are two distinct populations of paw preference in the cat that cluster very strongly around the animals' sex," Deborah Wells, who led the study, told Discovery News.

I think I am having KFC for lunch. even though I fear I will feel bad afterwards, I think I am taking the chance.

I think I might go to Popeyes. Or possibly Chick Fil-a or however it is spelled. I haven't had fast food in ages.

So...round bread?

This weekend I am getting over my ick (I hope) and NOT driving Emmett to Granada for an 8am game (with 7am warmups) because it's his weekend with his mom.

Since I've been trying to quarantine myself from Matilda's grabby little hands, I've put Emmett in charge of all the extra cuddling with her and they were super extra cute this morning snuggled on the couch and him making her squee with giggles.

So...round bread?

I'm thinking muffin.

Oh, they call it a bagel, but I'm going to have to say NSM. Still delicious!
