7. Yes


Don't let the cutesy look fool you, she's chewed up the wires of an expensive set of headphones. Not only that, she loves to munch on shoelaces (we have to closet our shoes) and things like pull strings on blinds. She's a little standoffish too, any display of affection has to be HER idea.
