Cats are exceedingly smart creatures, effortlessly solving puzzles. I have firsthand experience in cats being extremely smart. One of my cats learned how to get treats without help from anybody else. One of our cats, named Tipsy, opened a cupboard without anybody’s help. He pushed out the treat bin making the lid come off. He is the entire reason we had to get a better treat bin as he figured out how to open a cabinet on his own. Cats are some of the smartest creatures on planet Earth.
