When the cat's away, the mice play.

Today I came home from school to find in my kitchen the paper towel dispenser hanging from the string on the window blinds. The paper towels were on the floor, unrolled and covered in teeth marks. I have taught Calla not to get on the counter when I'm cooking, but apparently, she disregards this rule when I'm away. It looked as if she had quite a time.
