Cut her in half!

who’s a good boy…?

Awwww, she’d agree to that anyway.

“And now for my next trick…”

All that for the price of 1 small Milk-Bone !

Forget the levitation, it’s a magic trick just to get her to admit that.

I’ve never judged the “goodness” of my pets by their ability to do tricks. Which is good, since they are cats. Oh, cats can do tricks, amazing tricks. The problem is that they get bored after doing them twice. There are exceptions. I had one cat, Vivekat, who would greet me from the roof when I got home. I would hold a cardboard box up, she would jump on it, and ride it down like an elevator. The difference is perspective: she had taught me to do a really useful trick.

“And now Mr. Cat will perform the cat in the bag, while submerged in the river.”

Good, but not great. This is an old trick after all.

It appears she almost has to jump through hoops, to get some attention.
