I suspect that there is a place between the floor of my apartment and the
ceiling of the apartment below, where errant LEGO, cigarette lighters,
paperclips, computer case screws and jumper shunts congregate to have parties
and laugh at us. The cats know where these parties are held, but are too large
to fit in to the holes. When your cat is staring off into space, it's actually
listening to the various items laughing at the humans. This is why cats have
no respect for people; their tiny little kitty-minds have been poisoned from
overhearing lost items bad mouth us all their lives.
