Hamlet the cat is totally over his owner’s magic trick: Oh, the agony! Hamlet the cat is just not amused by his owner’s magic trick. <br /> <br />Hamlet's owner tried to entertain him with a magic trick while he was casually lounging on the bathroom counter. <br /> <br />The trick — which is actually called the shell game and is more of short con than a magic trick — involves a small object being hidden under one of three identical containers. <br /> <br />No matter how hard Hamlet tries to avoid picking the container the object is hidden under, his owner insists on his participation. <br /> <br />We bet Hamlet wishes his owner never learned this trick.
