the joy of an empty cardboard box
Yeah; we had one who went bonkers over empty paper grocery bags. When we brought groceries home, we had to quickly lay an empty one on the floor for him. If we didn't, he'd jump in the full ones to see what was inside, spilling the contents all over the place.

We had a cat that would do that and would love to hear the sound it made. That is until my !@#$ kid sister put the bag against the wall. He learned quickly though. Only once did he ram his head into the wall. After that he started moving the bag and THEN running into it!

His thing seemed to be running into the bag, turning around, and then using it as a hiding place from which to pounce on people or our other cats. He kind of gave himself away, however, since he'd sit there and swish his tail back and forth, rattling the bag.

We get that now from my daughter's cat, a calico with a 'lazy' eye (apparently, this is not unusual for calicos). Occasionally she'll misjudge a doorway and run into the wall instead.

It's amazing how, even in a pet store, people look at you funny when you say that. :-> Does anyone else get presents for your dogs? Hopefully it's not just a South African thing. What else are dogs meant to do around the Christmas tree anyway? EDIT: I got them one a karlie aqua action ball.

Why not get the dog a pair of kittens for Christmas? They're always plentiful - no danger of ever running out of them - and quite delicious, according to several dogs I've known. "...a photo album is like Life, but flat and stuck to pages." - Shog9

I don't have any pet. Anyway: 1. They don't know it's Xmas (try to ask them). 2. They could be not Christian. 3. They don't tell you "Thank you so much!". ;P;):laugh: ___________________________________ Tozzi is right: Gaia is getting rid of us. My Blog [ITA] - eMule Server .NET

Yes, when I had a dog it used to get presents. Usually they were just normal things like chews, bones from the butcher (not that there are any left these days) toys and so on. He used to love tearing the paper off things so he really enjoyed that - although he always looked guilty doing that because we wasn't allowed to do that any other time of year.

The mayhem they create when they see you after a long time more than makes up for it. I can't help smiling when I'm a few feet away from reaching home, knowing the reception I'll get :) Regards Senthil _____________________________ My Blog | My Articles | WinMacro
What dog have you got? Any pics? Oh, yes! I remember the very first time I returned from Madras. It was sheer bedlam, 10 people and a dog trying to pull me in different directions.
The dog won. :-O
Cheers, Vikram.

Not one but two. A pomeranian cross and a Rajapalayam (don't know if there's an English name for it). Don't have a pic though. Regards Senthil _____________________________ My Blog | My Articles | WinMacro
