| The cat got me! Moses is my little guy. He loves to play with the cat outside. They run circles around each other and Freddie (cat) will pounce on Moses as he runs thru the yard. All in fun. Well the cat is inside now that it is cold and Mosey thinks that is great. He will run up to him and kinda dance around him and usually Freddie will play back. I guess Fred was in a bad mood last night. Moses pounced on him and Freddie must have scratched him cause he yelped and then came running to me. Of course, then Isabel had to come over and bark like crazy. I guess she was defending Moses. I picked him up and he just looked so devasted! Why would his playmate hurt him? I didn't see anything on him, no scratch, no bleeding. When I put him back on the floor, he would not go near the cat, he would just look at him across the room. He just looked so perplexed, it was funny. I'm curious to see if he tries to play with him tonite or if he will keep his distance. Fred has him by about 15 lbs! |

| Our cats have given the boy puncture wounds which get nasty. If puss is going to be in all winter you may want to get Soft Paws. They're caps that you glue onto their front paws. We use them becasue Duncan (our cat) is a furniture scratcher & these don't bother him one bit.

| My yorkie plays with the cats. Sometimes one gets a little rough with the other and they will scratch or bite just like a friend of the same species would to tell the other "that hurts" or "i don't want to play."
