On April 17, 2018 Doug Savage had a Savage Chickens cartoon titled The Right Way. It goes perfectly with the following story, which I told slightly differently in a blog post on February 22, 2011 titled Return of the Table Topics Bunny:
Back in the early 1980s I had a
two-story condo and a curious little black kitten named Finster. On a
late-spring weekend day I opened windows for the upstairs master bedroom
(front) and bathroom (rear) for cross ventilation. Then I left to run errands
for a couple hours. When I returned and opened the front door, I found a mound
of toilet paper on the landing. A trail led all the way up the stairs, and into
the bathroom. Finster obviously had jumped on the windowsill to look out. As he
jumped back down he had brushed the toilet paper roll in the holder on the back
wall, and it began to rotate and unroll. Once he got it started he just kept
unrolling it and playing. I turned the roll around to feed out underhand rather
than overhand. Then I never had that problem again.
