Pandora likes to burrow. She especially likes to burrow in the drawer where all my exercise gear is stowed (fleece, donchaknow). So I'm sitting here working, and I hear a scrabbling noise as she's trying to get into the drawer. But it's closed.
"It's a real pity you can't open and close drawers, isn't it" I say to her...
Just as she gets her paws into the barest space between drawer and dresser, and manages (while standing on her back legs) to pry the drawer open enough for her to slip in.
Next up: the can opener!
(and in the meanwhile, there's a pair of eyes gleaming from under the folds of my sweatshirt, and a happy rumbling purr rising from within...)

Once she got into one drawer, the rest of the dresser was her oyster, and cashmere sweaters were her bed.

I can always tell when she's been squiggling because the covers and pillows are everywhere. (Once she even managed to squiggle the covers entirely off the bed. That was funny to come home to!)
Of course, she also likes to hide her rawhide chews BEHIND the pillows on my grandmother's bed, between the mattress and headboard. It's so funny to tell her to go get her chew-chew and she goes running into Foo's room! The Moose Monster, of course, has no clue.
