Going to the Dogs 3

Lucy was drowning and turning blue, so Randy Gurchin recalled his Air Force training on mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.

It didn’t matter that Lucy is a 10-month-old English bulldog, because he and Lucy are “best buddies.”

And Phillybits found this:

A house cat attacked its owner, sending her to the hospital by ambulance with more than 20 bite wounds.

The cat, a black and white domestic male, went on the rampage Wednesday when a neighbor showed up at the door with a different cat, mistakenly thinking it belonged to the woman.

    I’ve had cats all my life. The one sure thing about them, you can attach all the following human characteristics to them: Bi-Polar, Multiple Personalities, Anti-Social. They all fit. That article surprises me not at all. Out of the animal population that consists of 2 German Shepherds, 4 parakeets, & 2 50+ gallon aquariums, that reside in our household, the cat is the least likely to behave normally. For her, that’s normal.

    We have three dogs and a cat. The cat is the only one who’s normal.

    She is a most unusual cat. She’s actually affectionate. And a good mouser.

    It’s our dogs who are wierd.

    Malcolm isn’t a good mouser, she’s never had to hunt for food, so she’s never had to learn how, I suppose. She’s affectionate, when SHE wants to be petted. She’s also prone to go into a snit when she sees the girls & birds going outside, & she can’t. She’s 11 & 1/2 years old, weighs 5 pounds, & way smaller than the other cats that roam the neighborhood. I won’t have her getting hurt in a fight, she’s just too small. She was the runt of the litter, & taken from her mother at 3-4 weeks. I took her only because the woman was going to “get rid of her” anyway she had to. Plus, she black, & we all know how black cats are treated. So she’s the queen of the roost here.
