Holy shiite!
My Lab did that as a pup ONCE. I cant see him doing it again.
Yeah, it sucks for my cat...but he does all right and has lived to be a ripe old age. I’m kind of cringing over moving him over to our new house, though. He’s been in this one for almost 11 and a half years.
We took in a female stray a couple of years ago and we were waiting for her kittens to get a little older before we had them fixed. She went into heat, and since Kelvin was the only male cat in the house other than her son, she kept following him around all day, making that special “I’m in heat” mew and lying down on her side in front of him. He was pretty confused for a few days there! So was she, I guess.
