| Do your yorkies ever... lick their paw and use it to clean their fur on their face like a cat? Lexi does this all the time, and I don't think I've ever seen another dog doing this. We don't have a cat, and she's never been around one so she isn't modeling behavior she's seen. I thought this was just a cat behavior, but it sure is cute!

YT 1000 Club Member | Romeo rubs both his eyes with his paws (much like a cat). He even "scratches" his face/eyes on the rugs. At times we tell him he's our "pretty kitty".

| My Bella does the same thing also. I swear this breed is part cat...LOL At Christmas when I put the tree up, she would get up on the arm of the loveseat and take her paw and pat at the balls on the tree. I have often seen cats do this but never a dog...too funny. Once she even got up on the chair at the dining room table and hopped up onto the table. I have never had a dog do that. It is nice to know mine is not the only one that acts like a cat |
