What is the smartest, or funniest thing you have seen your pet do? Dolly likes to dance to get

her treats.

1. I had a cat who would back himself up to a wall and thump it with his tail when he was mad.

2. We had a dog the would go to the top of the snow pile with a gallon ice cream tub.

Put his front paws in and slide down the hill. Over and over.

It’s not cute but very sweet the way our dog now, lays dead things at my feet. No, not cute.
But such reverence to give me this gift. He doesn’t necessarily kill it but usually he did.

3. One of our now-departed cats taught himself to pull down...

…the lever on the Hinckley Springs water jug and get himself a drink whenever he wanted. It took him about three days to figure it out, and to transition from using his teeth to using a paw.

It was a joy to watch.

4. Our loved and missed cat sounded the alarm.

Husband liked to relax in the basement, where it was cool. Cat would go down to the litter box, meow a greeting to him and he would say, "Hey, girl." One day he didn't reply; he wanted to see what she would do. Out of the corner of his eye, he could see her watching him. She then ran upstairs. Got in my face, would not let me alone. Went back down the stairs, meowing all the day. She stood at the bottom, near the couch and looked up at me with worry in her eyes. (I swear, it was there.) Then the Husband explained what had happened. Once she realized he was okay, she went back to her blase cat attitude.

5. That was a very smart cat. Mine won't use her litter box if anyone is downstairs. We alsways says

she wants her privacy.

6. Yes, she was. We miss her. As for yours -- quirky creatures, aren't they?
