I can HEAR the trash can moving across the bathroom floor so I KNOW Captain is in there, trying to pick floss out of the trash can and eat it.
Why?! Why must you eat floss? Because it’s mint flavored? Because you’re sick of having cat food breath? I don’t GET IT!
wheezyrider 
Are you sure they’re not catnip-flavored?

I read somewhere that catnip and mint are in the same plant family soo…. maybe?
Yes they are 😉

Hahaha, that’s hilarious. Odin once stole a teabag from the sink and disemboweled it under the coffee table. Strange cats.
In theory, it’s funny. But in reality, I have seen the floss come out of both ends and neither is pretty.
Oh geez. I can imagine. As an owner of three pets, I have seen many horrible things enter and exit their systems and it’s never nice. I can sympathize, but I must apologize for laughing. I just can’t picture floss being a choice victim of theft for a cat!
Is it theft if it’s just sitting in the trash can waiting to be eaten? I assume that’s how it’s justified.
Hahaha. You are probably right.
Well, would it make you feel better to know that we forgot to put up the gate when we went to work yesterday and Jake was able to attack all 4 upstairs trash bins (with floss), AND the cat litter box? It was epic. I needed a drink after cleaning that one.
And that is why I don’t think I can handle a dog. Cats are way smarter about eating things they shouldn’t. My cats have always stuck to one vice like plastic bags or mice or floss. Dogs will eat anything just for funsies.
Tee hee! A cat flossing – what next?
Next = cat puking up floss.
