Oh, I've found rib bones from the trash in the living room. I have
never caught him at it but I think that James Moriarty is the culprit.
My cats are 10 years old now and less prone to mischief now. They have
knocked over numerous potted plants (always newly-watered - why is
that?) but never a wine bottle.

When I worked at a university, one of the secretaries got some bottles
of champaign from her boss, probably from graduation. She had them on
a shelf at her station and after a few hours they began to pop their
corks. It was sort of funny, wine all over in this office.
