Breaking and... Breaking!

I have learned an important skill: how to open any bi-fold door! This comes in very handy when you wish to investigate stuff.  Want to learn how, kitties? First, stick your paw under the door, right where it cracks open.
Make sure nobuddy is spying on you, or you might get in trouble!
Once the door is pried open wide enough, you are free to enter.
Take your time looking around.  You might find something good inside!
Just a bunch of beans in here.  I might need to check out the higher shelves...
It looks like some good stuff is up here! Harley, come help me.
OH NOES! I knocked the beans over.  Now I'm sure to get in trouble.
ps: I am supposed to say "the pantry isn't always this much of a mess" but that would be a lie.

50 Notes for Daisy:

Sparkle said...

Wait a minute, Daisy - I think you missed some fishy flakes next to the beans!!!

Poppy Q said...

Miss D - those cans at the bottom look like they would be tasty for pussycats.

P.S - my mum wishes she could have such a lovely pantry. She has to make do with a couple of cupboards.

Thank´s for the lesson in how to open doors :)
I´m sure my mom will be thrilled over my new skill ;-)

Barb said...

Daisy dearest, if you and Gracie lived next door to each other you two would be best girlcatfriends. She is the Queen of opening stuff, too. Often. Daily. srsly.

Cheri Linehan said...

Daisy I love how Harley is always your side kick in these adventures!

Smudge said...

Hey Daisy- I can do that with doors too! I've yet to master the whole climbing thing, though. Maybe I'm just too lazy? Great work!!

Spunky and Manny said...

Great step-by-step tutorial, Daisy! Knocking over the beans was your only mistake we could see. Whenever we knock something over like that it usually makes a big noise and we run away from the scene as fast as we can.

Donna said...

Do u has any macaroney and cheez? That is good. :)

The Island Cats said...

We see a whole bunch of stinky goodness at the bottom, Daisy! Where's the can opener???

Cathy Olliffe-Webster said...

Oh my goodness, Daisy YOU are full of beans!

Katie Isabella said...

Daisy, you are a ringleader of mischief!

Lin said...

Hahaha! I love your climbing skills, Daisy. Right past the cans of cat food to the chocolate covered almonds!

Purrfect Haven said...

we always learn so much from you dear Daisy! We haven't been visiting because we have been away and then encumbered with extra work that going on holiday entails. Lovely to be back. Love Helen, Darcy and Bingley xxx

Marg said...

Good job Daisy getting up to that top shelf. Did Harley give you a boost?? Well done you two. Have a great day.

Selina said...

You guys did great! And don't apologize - actually, the pantry looked fairly well organized 'til you got up there & knocked over the bean cans! MOL

Don't eat too many of them ... you might not like the consequences ... your hoomans definitely won't! *holds nose & giggles*

PURRS!
Selina

Jasper McKitten-Cat said...

The cat who came before us would use the "push the door" technique so it would bounce back and open some. But that's not the best way to not get noticed because it can be loud (but maybe that was the point).

Texas, a Cat in... Austin said...

MOL Daisy!
I do the same with the closet where my human keeps her shoes.
I too get into trouble because I never close the door once I'm done so my human knows I went there but I want her to know I don't care ;-)
Purrs to you and Harley

Dma said...

sorry. i will not show this post to the boyz. there are some things they don't need to know.

Hannah and Lucy said...

We know it was Mr Not Me who broke into the pantry and knocked the tins over Daisy. Not Me seems to cause lots of trouble on the CB.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
PS He often visits us too!

Terri said...

What a lesson in opening bifold doors--you are such a talented cat, Daisy!

We hope you two find some yummy stuff in there while you're knocking things over :)

Cat and DOG Chat With Caren said...

Oh yeah Daisy, I have been a MASTER door opener for YEARS!!!
You're preachin' to the choir!
Love, Cody

Callie (a.k.a. Trouble) said...

Miss Daisy - can you show me how to open doors that close regular style? That is the only kind at my house and I NEED to get in the food closet.

Gemini and Ichiro said...

Oh Daisy over to your right, one shelf down--FISHY FLAKES! Can you get it for me. We can get into our pantry like that but no one has gone up the shelves. I think because there is so much sitting so close to the front of the shelves.

Two French Bulldogs said...

Holy crap! How cool is that!!

HH and The Boys said...

A few Good Cats said...

Intelligent, curious, and a good climber... all things that a cat should be able to do! Good going, Daisy!

Kali and Aswell said...

oh, I do wished we do has those kinds of cupboard doors!

We do had doors Aswell might could open cept he do eated too much of She's plastic stuffs so He and She putted a chain on the doors so Aswell can not do that any more!

Angel, Kirby and Max said...

Daisy, that is a great skill. We have a regular door on our pantry and Kirby is still trying to learn how to turn the knob! We do not see a mess in your pantry! Mom would not let us take a picture of ours to show you a real mess!

LP said...

Your Mama's pantry is very tidy Daisy! Everything in its' place...and it looks as though the bottom shelf my have what you need...if you can figure out how to open cans! ;)

the critters in the cottage xo

neora chana said...

Dear Daisy,

Good job! You know the bean cans were deliberately arranged by the humans as an alarm. It would almost be impossible not to knock them over.

But how did your Mommeh get the pictures of you when you are so sneaky?

BeadedTail said...

Great tutorial Daisy! We noticed the fishy flakes! Our mommy noticed the chocolate covered almonds!

Memories of Eric and Flynn said...

You are an expert door opener Daisy, and a good shelf climber too.

The Florida Furkids said...

Great job Daisy!!!

That's a mess? You should see ours!!! Okay...maybe NOT!

MISS PEACH ~(^.^)~ said...

you make mommies heart smile Daisy...our Miss Peach used to get into the bifold doors too...we had to rig a bungie cord from handle to handle so she could not get the job done anymore.
we love you so much dear little girl...
the cozy cottage

Just Ducky said...

Yeah, we thinks you went past the good kittie stuff. Mum says your shelves are furry neat. At least compared to hers.

Mark's Mews (Marley, Lori, Loki, and Binq) said...

We hope ya found where the treats are hidden in there!

Unknown said...

Sigh! Me misses the little house's bi-fold doors! Were we lives now, all the doors has knobs. me never figured out Knobs.
Kisses
Nellie

Sweet Purrfections said...

Daisy, we think you missed a container of bonito flakes while you were climbing to the top.

dArtagnan Rumblepurr/Diego Hamlet Moonfur said...

You could blame Harley - he's pretty full of beans! Hee hee!

Pip said...

Holy-Moly this post made mine mommy laff! You sure are a character, Daisy.

Connie - Tails from the Foster Kittens said...

This is a riot! Great climbing job Daisy!

Rose Clearfield said...

You are so smart, Daisy!

A Tonk's Tail said...

Maxwell: *taking notes* That looks a lot easier than the way I open cabinet doors... *BANG!*BANG!*BANG!* ...and then they bounce open...!

Wish our pantry had bifolds, all that banging gets me caught...fast

Kris @ beyond the whiskers said...

Dear Daisy - I think you left a very important disclaimer out of your tutorial. Cougar must have seen your instruction, because the other day she tried your little trick on the kitchen cabinet door. Unfortunately, in your post you never mentioned what to do if you succeeded and while searching for a snack the door closes on you. Luckily, sister Storm (who did a very poor job of guard duty) sat outside the cabinet door altering Cougar’s presence to the authorities (who had been franticly searching the house for her location). ;)
