LOL. I don't know how you did that, but it's a hoot.

My daughter had a cocker spaniel who was mean, but certainly smart. She had gotten him a rubber cheeseburger squeaky toy. One evening around suppertime, Beau was nosing his supper dish around on the kitchen floor and nobody was responding. He went to the other end of the house, got the "cheesebugga", brought it to the kitchen and dumped it in his dish. We got the message, all right.

"I don't have a problem with liberals, everyone should have one, in a cage, where it can't hurt anyone." But what good are they? They're dumber than a box of rocks. You can't even teach them to do tricks. And if you bring them out at parties, they'll just embarass you by humping on your date's leg...or worse.

"the dog....ran straight to the ringing phone, lifted the receiver off the hook in her jaws, replaced it and returned contentedly to her spot on the rug"
If my cats didn't like the ringing phone, they would call the phone company and have the number changed.
THAT'S the difference between cats and dogs.

Oh, come on, it's possible.
I had a male Siamese who, when the phone rang, would knock the receiver off the cradle and meow into it at the top of his lungs.
We had to put all the phones on the wall or on top of the bookcases. He would still occasionally jump up, hang on, and pull one off.
He was also the cat who thought he was Lord of the Jungle. He would leap up onto the tops of doors and hang there with his hind feet on the top of the door and his front paws braced on the side. When unsuspecting people walked underneath he would drop on their heads with a blood curdling scream.
And he won his Championship in CFA. He was quite the versatile kitty.

Your photo proves that a duck's complex thought processes include deducing cause and effect.
My photo proves ducks can drive.

We have a very small dog (my daughter's Chihuahua) and several cats. The dog is "of very little brain," so she doesn't concern me, but the cats have bothered me for decades (through several iterations). My gut feeling is that cats look at their "owners" as meat on the hoof. If they could figure out a way to get us down, we'd be lunch.
I think that's what all the running under our feet is about. They're obviously trying to trip us and get us to break our necks.
C'mon, you know it's true!

My Siamese taught herself to pee in the toilet while nobody was looking. Of course, she's a genius...
She is extremely private so we haven't gotten her photo, but she sits just like this one >>

Oh, that is so sad... :(
I have mourning issues with road kill, so a crying cow just breaks my heart. If I had to be a farmer I'd also have to be a vegetarian, I couldn't think about eating what could have been my own steer. Chickens,OTOH, deserve to be eaten.
