A great mystery has been solved. I have an obsessive cat. She’s much better now as she become older and more mellow but she developed a new obsession a few weeks ago. At 2 or 3 in the morning she’d freak out, run around, crash into things and wouldn’t calm down for an hour or so. I could here she was playing with something but couldn’t figure out what it was. She did this every night for a few nights and I discovered she was playing a pistachio nut. I picked up the nut and threw it away. The next night she freaks out again playing with a pistachio nut. The next morning I threw it away and looked around the kitchen and pantry to see where they were coming from. I haven’t had pistachios in six months. Next night another pistachio freak out. Today I emptied out my roomba and there were 12 nuts in there. I went all over the house and couldn’t figure out where they were coming from. I finally discovered a small hole in a Christmas package my mom sent. Sure enough the cat had chewed a small hole in the box and was sticking her paw in to get pistachios to play with. If that cat finds another one tonight I’m going to give up.
