I have two 5 year old cats. They both preferentially use only one paw to scoop food from their feeder bowls. Mulder is right pawed, and Scully is left pawed. I don’t know anything about any other animals, so I’m guessing yes from my sample size of 2.

It also seems to be on the rise in online publications. Both spelling errors and synonym/grammar issues have increased significantly over the last year, most significantly in the last 3-4 months.
