Oh, I wish this video were longer! It brings back fond memories of Robbie as a kitten, lugging my wife’s slippers around the living room. A slipper was slightly bigger than she was, at the time.
I imagine a cat has big plans for these slippers… and we’d be shocked if we knew what they were.
Robbie helped me make the bed today. She hasn’t quite outgrown that. Over the years, I’ve learned how to work around her and the end result is not that awful. Unlike other cats we’ve known, she’d rather not be under the covers.
It seems clear, from scads of video, that dogs and cats understand that human babies are–well, babies–and act accordingly. The same huge Doberman that would send me shinnying up a tree has the baby in stitches.
I don’t know where they got the baby orangutan.
Thanks to the magic of time-lapse video, you can watch this kitten’s whole nap in just a little over a minute. And you can try to guess, from her various motions and gestures, what she’s dreaming about. (Looks like basketball to me.)
What we have here, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, is a clear case of entrapment. These innocent dogs have been set up! Their owners, for the sake of mere minutes of YouTube notoriety, have led them down the pizza path! And it is simply not just… not just at all.
It’s a little long, but I guarantee you won’t see something like this every day. Unless, of course, you watch this video every day.
Can both bunnies fit in the basket with everybody else? Free tickets to anyone who can guess how many ducklings are involved.
My cats always grew out of this, wouldn’t do it anymore. Maybe if we’d paid them, it would’ve been different. And of course, when a cat first discovers he can make a puffy tail, he’s gonna do it all day. And bouncing around on tiptoe is fun, too.
Dogs don’t like it when you move their bones; that’s why they try to hide them. In your bed. In the cat’s bed. Under the sofa cushions. In a shoe. Imagine what they could do, if only they had hands. Bones in the drawer with your undies.
I don’t know what our national pastime is anymore, but I’m pretty sure cats’ is stealing dogs’ beds. And the dogs have to put up with it.
But it’s not all frustrated dogs. Some of them let the cat have what-for; and some of them reach a cuddly compromise.
Here’s a problem you’ll never have with your pet turtle–getting wiped out, knocked over, blitzed… You’d think it was a football game. And you can’t tell me dogs aren’t doing it on purpose! Look at the guilty expressions on their faces…
