The table has this little tassel pull on a string. I think she had jumped up to play with it as a toy and sent the whole thing crashing over. I didn't post the second half of the incident. Immediately after the crash, she sprinted across the room and body slammed an old Apple flatscreen monitor that I was going to donate to charity. She broke the back stand off of it.
When I came into the room, I thought that was the only thing broken, even though I clearly had heard glass breaking. So I was a little confused. I went back into the kitchen and came back after I heard this strange plink-plink-plink sound, which was my cat pickup up pieces of glass in her mouth and dropping them on the floor. She just goes nuts every once in a while and does things like leap halfway up the wall to scratch a spot that looks like a bug. But she's never done real damage before this. Between the two items, it was $1,000+ in the span of 10 seconds.
She was in "timeout" for a whole day, locked in a room. Which only served to irritate me, because she'd go into these loud meowing fits every time she heard my voice. She's since been released, having learned nothing.
