Odin knows the names of his toys by genre.
“Get yer bone” is anything like a bone or antler.
“Get yer chewy” is anything rawhide/bully stick.
“Get yer ball” is obvious.
“Get yer squeaky” covers the insane amount of other-shaped squeak toys he owns.
[I’m too lazy to “name” them all so we went for generic descriptions]
“Get Gypsy” means break up the girls’ current bicker-fest.
“Git ‘em!” is self explanatory.
:D
If you really want your mind messed up, watch the PBS show “Nature: What Plants Talk About”.
*Everything* is “thinking”.
Cool graphic. ;^)
Odin knows he’s not supposed to rob the girls’ food when he’s done eating his so he sneaks over and carries their bowls off where I can’t see him and eats the food out of sight.
IMO, that shows intent, pre-planning, a sense of ‘guilt’ and behavior designed to hide the ‘crime’.
Several times this winter when it was especially cold, he took the pillows off of my sofa and carried them over to Djinni on the dogs’ sofa so she could burrow into them.
But only he does that to discourage her from being on “our” sofa where he’d have to share space with her.
[He is not especially altruistic]
:)
Some cool dude gimme that.
;D
Why would anyone want to think about thinking?
If I was close enough, dear Mesta, I’d come bake you an apple pie. I made one Satruday. Had to freeze some of it because me and my cat can’t finish one quickly enough.
I’m glad to see you! I hope you’re feeling much better.
My mom used to say she got full just discussing what we were going to eat for dinner. We were both a lot leaner in those days.
I ask my kitty, Mao, to find her brush. She looks until she finds it. Cute.
Oh yeah, well we are still the only ones that can think about thinking about thinking - dontcha think? Plus the whole opposable thumb thing.
(grin)
I thought Coco the gorilla proved this long ago (along with nearly every dog I had since childhood)?
