I thought I had the only dog that did that! I always have to move his tail from in front of my face before I fall asleep. Havanese.
cats are much smarter
dogs are smart and better companions
and will do lots of services for us too
but cats are so smart they do NOTHING for us
and yet we buy them turkey, tunafish, chickens, everything
hoping they will show some appreciation
(which is rather like waiting for Godot)
cats are smarter because they get from us everything we give our dogs, without having to beg or grovel or fetch or work for any of it
