My ragdoll beautiful cat is extremely good-natured and, true to the name of the breed, it so lax that a towel shows more nervous activity. But it connives with the Golden Retriever with the same purpose, only it's the wooden or plastic handles of the cutlery, and the tupperware, and the socks.
Yesterday I had to throw away 14 socks with holes beyond mending. All of my forks and knives are torn and chewed at the handles, and visitors (I do know) think we are all very damaged people who bite our cutlery out of hunger, or worms in our bowels, or mental illness... I am glad to know the keychain split ring will help you with your stylus. If I had to hang around my neck all the things the dog bites or destroys, I would already be in osteopathic treatment.

P. D.: I had a gecko as well, but it died. Every time I read Gecko's posts, I remember and cry.
