DO NOT let Hoover the Cat watch these instructional videos

By VG -
In a previous post that featured kitteh turning on shower tap, I also noted a comment from Marion in Savannah: "I live in fear of a kitteh who solves the doorknob problem, however. Hoover is working on it from several angles..."

I do, in fact, have an extensive YT library of cats and doorknobs, none of which I have shown thus far. But, now is the time. Almost without exception, the lever shaped "doorknob" was featured in the YTs I found. Thus:

This is one of the very few YTs I found featuring a real "doorknob"- round thingy that is used to open doors.

Upon close review of the second YT, I now see that the doorknob, even though round, has a textured surface. Aha! Leverage for kitteh paws.

Marion in Savannah, so that I can continue to provide you with pertinent kitteh information, I do need know the details of the "doorknobs" that Hoover the Cat is dealing with. ;)

    Thank heaven for us, Hoover is faced with round brass doorknobs with no texture for kitteh paws. If I ever see him licking his paws hoping to get some traction I'll know I'm in DEEP trouble. He works particularly hard on the back doorknob, which he can reach from a table next to the door so he doesn't have to reach up...

    I made sure he was out of the room this morning, and I'm turning off the power to the monitor so he can't see these videos later. I don't think he's learned where the power button is yet...

Is Cartoon Cat a creepypasta?

One person answers the question on a forum website and they say that Cartoon Cat is not a creepypasta. Yes, there was one answer to the question. Now there are two!! What is creepypasta? Who is Cartoon Cat? As I understand it, "creepypasta" is a sort of slick, hip but misleading description for unnerving stories posted on the Internet designed to shock people.  It seems to me that the scary Cartoon Cat could be involved in a creepypasta story. His whole reason for existing is to scare people and create creepypasta so I disagree with the guy who says that Cartoon Cat is not creepypasta.  I think I see the point, though. The individual character called Cartoon Cat is not creepypasta because he is an individual. However, he can be involved in creepypasta horror stories because that's his purpose in life. Phew, I think I've got that out of the way. Cartoon Cat. Photo: Fandom.com It is a bit surprising because when I went onto the search engine Bing looking for "ca...
