The following story/post isn't really culinary or home related...it's just too funny not to share.
I have a fat cat who loves adores cotton swabs (let's just call them Q-tips for here on out). Around here we throw away our used qtips in the bathroom trash can. This trash can is uncovered, so the cat can easily dig through the garbage and pick out the qtips.
I buy the cotton-on-a-little-blue-stick-type of cotton swabs. Sometimes when watching tv, I will see a blue stick lying on the floor...with no cotton on the ends. *sigh* It's hopeless. My cat is going to die from eating cotton.
Earlier this week, I purchased a small bathroom sized trash can...not only with a lid, but a step on mechanism. It's pretty cat proof.
Last night, I went to threw away a used qtip. I flipped open the trash can lid. Please note the cat saw me throw away said qtip...he know what was in the trash can. So, for the next 10 minutes the cat tried to open the trash can lid. It was so comically.
I think he's fat because he's stuffed full of cotton.

It's a mystery why my cat loves cotton. I thought it was the ear wax (yes, you have permission to lecture me on the safety of ears and qtips). But no. My cat loves all things involving big puffs of cotton. He is one of those cats that adores non-food objects.
Funny as the story is, I am kind of worried about him. He has a lot of cat toys to keep him occupied, including an old couch for all his nail sharpening pleasures...he is not bored.
