Sassie was laying under the rocker. She doesn't do anything unless it is her idea and I got to wonder how it would have went if Lassie was a cat or if Rin Tin Tin was?
Our cats were raised as a dogs and behaved pretty much as tho they were dogs. Would even come when called and knew what "no" meant. Our son was a diabetic and his cat would awaken him at night if his blood sugar was low. Made living along as an adult possible for him. I think if he fell down a well, the cat would jump down with him instead of getting help.
