A huge crisis here this morning,the electric can opener wasn't working

[Duncanpup]

Boog says WTB (what the biscuits )how are we gonna eat our wet food ,we just can’t eat dry we are not savages we prefer a mixture.

Boog says - Shit the boys are gone and is the man capable of using the manual can opener.

All is ok the can opener wasn’t plugged in.

5. I had a vintage 60s GE can opener that finally died about 1995. That thing was about as

loud as a freakin' table saw! They put a good electric motor in those. I never replaced it. I don't eat much out of cans, and most have pull tops these days anyway.

8. We had one from the 90's that was fixed under the cabinet

Just died recently. Got a $6 manual one from Amazon that works fine.
Our cats don’t like wet food although I’m always trying new kinds because the vet said it’s better for them (especially Charlie who weighs 19 lbs.) I keep the dry food in Tupperware and the second they hear the container opening they’re in the kitchen.

14. I used to have one of those loud can openers.

It had to be replaced this year. In the past, I used it to call the cat. If she heard the sound of the can opener, she came running from whatever dimension cats hide in when they do not want to be found.

6. I'm surprised they didn't team up to go find a sledge hammer...

7. Glad that the crisis was averted. Speaking of electric can openers,

my folks had one while I was growing up, and the cats always came running every time they heard it and were so obnoxious when the can wasn't for them. Then, one year, my mom got an electric can opener in an office Christmas exchange. (?) Anyway, it made a different sound, so she began using that for human food and kept the old one for cat food. They never reacted to the new one because there was no payoff, lol.

10. OMG, that was a close call. I heard Duncan was dialing 911, thankfully

he dialed 811 with those big paws!

11. Those early morning crises can be hard to take! I need coffee just to get the eyes open.

So who was the culprit who unplugged the can opener? Sounds like me when I used to travel a lot and encountered airport and other bathrooms with automatic faucets that came on when you put your hands under them. I would do the same with my home faucets for a couple of days and wonder why they weren’t working!

12. A good stout knife would work too....

Kbar, bowie, even a screwdriver.....

Don't ask me how I know....... it was either the can or suicide.

13. Been there, done that.

[mgardener]

16. I was wondering how you and your family were doing.

[aggiesal]

17. I personally don't like using electricity that can be easily done manually ...

Can openers is just one example.
Another is paper towel dispensers and hand dryers.

I'm sure we can think of more.

18. I am guessing that there was moaning, gnashing of teeth and sad faces while you tried to open the ca

Then when you plugged it in the dogs looked up in amazement and thought "my owner is a magician".
