Maybe she could smell something strange.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 16 points 16 hours ago

Or felt the heat from the oven, especially if her routine brings her close to it. Or just got annoyed at the sound the solonoids make as it cycled on and off to hold the temperature.

But there's a non-zero chance she knew that the human had started doing something with the box that makes things that go in it smell delicious and then got distracted and wanted to remind the human, either wanting to smell some delicious smells or even understanding that that box shouldn't be on when it isn't making delicious smells (from observing other interactions with or around the oven).

Solenoids move a rod in and out. You’re thinking of relays that connect a large current based on a signal from a small current.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

Yeah and that rod can be used to make or break a circuit, and often is the mechanism used in a relay. The clicking noise is that rod slamming into the stops.

Damn, you guys have some smart cats. My cat is dumb as shit and would never do any of these things.

Dumb as shit kitties represent. One of our cats is the dumbest I've ever known. She constantly runs into things, hits her head, injures herself jumping from heights (no she doesn't have any health problems, vet checked fine), she just dumb. But she's also adorable and loving and we love her.
