My 2 fur brothers are sooo different! In so many ways my boys are so different from each other... but here's something I noticed a lot over the years. Fletch will look me directly in the eyes, stare into my eyes, his eyes are so alive and expressive. I can see worry, pain, love, excitement, fear all in his eyes clear as day, as if he was a person.
Dexter, his eyes are almost empty. He will not make eye contact with me ever, even if I try to force him he'll turn his head any ways he can to avoid eye contact. He has NO expressions, I can't tell anything about how hes feeling from his eyes.
I always told DH that I think Dexter just uses me for a lap, that he does not love me like Fletcher so clearly does lol.... Im kidding of course, but isn't it really odd that their eyes and the way they connect or avoid contact is sooo different? Ive had them both for over 7 years now, they are from the same liter and I got them both at the same time, they have always been treated the same also.
