Are you at the mercy of your pets? They have a subliminal way of bossing you.

I know our cat Tia has my other half and my kids right where she wants them though she never tries it with me as she knows she is on to a loser with that one! lol We could have the living room window open and she will jump in then go sit at the front door crying to be let out and they do it! Best bit is she goes out and jumps straight back in through the window! If they are all out she just jumps in and out the window! xxxx

One of my cats knows exactly how to get me out of bed in the mornings to give him some breakfast. He LEAPS across my head and if I ignore him he LEAPS back across the other way, and continues until I finally drag my butt out of bed and into the kitchen. Another thing they do when they want breakfast and I'm still snoozing is jump up on the bed and have a cat spat right on top of me! Hehehe, I love my little buddies!

Animals are creatures of many talents. As a farmer for 50 years I've always had an affinity for Farm animals including the Cow-dog, and the Barn-Cats. My latest cow-dog was an Australian Sheep dog which I trained to detect American Foul Brood(a disease of Honey bees which has no cure) The dog soon learned to sniff out infected Colonies, but the bees stung his nose which had to be out out, even though I dressed him in bee-proof coveralls. So that success was a failure!Its been said that a Dog's nose is 1000 times better than a Human's nose. A friend was asked to babysit a dog for a neighbor who was in the hospital.Each day my friend walked the dog past the vacant house of his sick neighbor. When the neighbor came home from the hospital he called my friend to tell him that he needed a couple of days to recover before he could look after the dog, and not to let the dog know he was home. So again as usual and my friend took the dog for the accustomed walk but as they were going past the now inhabited House the dog became very excited and began to bark and pull on the leash. It was obvious the dog knew his owner was home. His nose had let the Cat out of the Bag!
