Weird Pet Tricks

[AmandaRuth]

Okay, anybody have a pet out there? Dog/cat/horsebird/lizard/other and or Monkey? Do they do anything really weird? Like ' See a Dog Fetch Beer ' trick? Well, I was just wondering, and I have a few of my own.

Okay, so once we had a German Shepard named Cookie *Moment of silence.*. We got her fixed so she never had puppies. But when one of our cats gave birth to a bunch of Kittens, Cookie like stole one of the Kittens (Named Han.) She carried him out to the middle of the yard by the neck like a Mother Cat and bathed him, played with him, and tried to nurse him. My mom and I thought that was the funniest thing ever, but in a good way. And thus Cookie earned the nickname, Mamadog.

3. We have the silliest dog on earth...

along with two cats, a cockitiel, and three ratties that have the run of a desk top and two (open) cages by the cat tree.
Our cats are so passive, when they are eating on the cat tree (due to the dog stealing their kibble) and their tails dangle within reach, the ratties will sneak up, insuring that there is some cage between the cat and the rat and grab a tail. All the cats do is hiss and turn their butts around out of rattie reach, then spend about an hour glaring at the laughing ratties.
The dog put her nose up to the desk top once, and one of the rats stretched out and grabbed her eyebrow. She's avoided it since.
She's also had a run-in with the cockatiel; she tried to sniff his tailfeathers once, he squawked, turned around, jumpped on her head and grabbed onto an ear. It was birdie rodeo around the kitchen until we could manage to get him off her. Ever since then, he dive-bombs her every chance he gets.
Yes, the ratties and the bird have definatly made their way to the top of the food chain here in our house.

7. our female cat will give our male cat a bath. Then he reciprocates, so

they're bathing together. Then she quits, and he's silly enough to keep bathing her.

He also likes to be dizzy (he loves to spin around in my office chair) and will sleep on my hair given the chance.

She has problems with grace occasionally, which lead to dignity issues, but is otherwise pretty normal. Other than he loves the cord from my partner's Desert Storm era Desert Parka to play with. She'll bring it to new people in the house like it's time to play.
