Siamese are something else.
Great looking elk hound.
Great looking bloodhound.
My rottie, Ursa, starts out this small little bundle of dog at the foot of the bed, but over night tends to melt until she takes up the bottom half of the bed. Sometimes, she sleep-runs with a dream pack, so I'll wake up to the bed shaking and the sound of "mmmMARK mmmMARK mmark...mmmm..."
It's always good for a laugh or two.
Time to weigh in on an important question....
My parrots say that dogs are idiots and cats are serial killers.
Know how to make your cat sound like a dog?
No?
well, you pour gasoline on him and light him and he’ll go “WOOF”
JUST A JOKE PEOPLE!!!!!
I had a cat that did as well. The first time she did it, I was stunned. I tried to throw a candy wrapper to the trashcan from a chair and missed. She ran after it and brought it back to me. I repeated, so did she. I would even throw small objects (usually crumpled paper) into things, like baskets, and she would jump into them to retrive it. As the months went on, she would catch them in mid throw--jump up and bat them down with her paw. She was very good at this game.
She also liked water. When we went to take her home, as a kitten, she was in the swimming pool with the kids and a dog. She never went into a pool again, but she used to put her head under the bathroom faucet when it was running. If she could have turned the handles, she would have, because she certainly tried.
She was a very bright cat, though very mouthy.
Cats don’t piss me off nearly as much as their owners. If their owners followed the law, and trained their cats to either be indoor cats that fear going outside, or obey the leash laws that apply to ALL animals.
Cats aren’t really that superior in their behavior. Cats and dogs are just like kids, if you let them run the house they will run the house, if you enforce the rules then you run the house. Cat people like to let them run the house, so they do. I don’t let the cats run the house, so they don’t.
Thanks for the ping.
While I’ve been watching my Dad’s house, while he’s in the hosiptal. He has a couple of stray cats living under his porch. Every other day, he’ll ask if I feed “his cats”!!!
BTW, I named them, one if Fluffy, the other is Morse, (he looks like Morse the cat.)
Who is Morse the cat?
I found it on the web, but our bloodhound has almost that exact same expression.
What a touching story, “my cats.” Thank you for it.
Hope your dad is doing great.
At my house we have a kitty welcome mat. People know better than to ever step on that mat.
Cats are very wise and sensitive creatures. They are wiser than dogs and most people.
Cats let you know when they require your attention, dogs don’t have a clue.
So there, never diss a kitty.
I bought one of my favorite kittys from a district court judge in Northern Indiana. Her hubby said she raises cats because she believed they are better and smarter than anyone that ever comes into her courtroom. Love it.
