Here’s a neat story about a man getting trapped in his car when it plunged in a ravine and his dog going half a mile to find help, leading a neighbor to the crash. Plus, the man only got the dog from an animal shelter two weeks prior.
See, that’s just what dogs do. I can imagine what would happen if I got in a crash and had to send my cat Sydney to get help. She’d make a little monkey squeak and then disappear. When I’d look around to see if she went to find help, I’d feel a claw swipe me in the back of the head.
Whoever tried to domesticate cats was wasting his time.
UPDATE: Anyone watch House last night and hear his solution for the woman with cat allergies? I love that show.
Since when would a cat ride in the same car as a human, unless said cat was in a carrier?
Last time I took Sydney in a car, she kept monkey squeaking until I let her out of the carrier. She then lay down on my shoulders for the drive.
Yes, the one way to be sure a cat is going to not want to leave your side is to take it on a car ride.
That is also the best way to make sure a cat pees on you by the way…
You cat would be like Rin Tin Tin compared to my Goldfish, Frank.
House never went back to the cat allergy lady.
I don’t know why House needed a river when the bathtub will do!! I hate cats! Sorry Laurence!
Steve,
But, with the bathtub, there is an extra disposal step.
Somebody run that dog against Ted Kennedy for senator of Massachusetts.
Burlap! Burlap! Burlap!
And don’t forget the brick…
The post by knight_308 is the absolute best!! Teddy might make a great foil for jokes, but the dog is much more selfless…Heck, that dog could beat a LOT of people in a LOT of elections, POTUS for one. Especially if the Demorats muster around hillary shudder. The dog could maybe save the WHOLE COUNTRY!! Vote Canine!
aA
get one of these cats…neither pet nor owner get better but at least you get even.
Uh, is that the right tone of comment for the kind of people who read this blog?
The one thing every cat owner needs to know: Your cat would eat you in a heartbeat if it were big enough….
Note: There is a reason there was never a Rin Tin Kitty, Or feline Lassy for that matter. Being pack animals Dogs naturally act to preserve members of the pack, making them natural Hero material. Felines are mainly lone hunters, so are likely to be found nibbling of your ear should they be unable to escape a car wreck to find more lively, and probably tasty, prey;)
I have to agree, Honorable Ronin Frank J. House is the best drama on TV. It is what ER could never be but was making an effort at getting close enough to touch it with a 50 foot pole. Then they got all political and whiny and off topic and the acting is bad but at least George Clooney Tunes is gone and I’m rambling now.

House Rocks. It is tense, well paced, faces issues without preaching, and has two great items: Hugh Laurie who rocks and Jennifer Morrison who is decent eye candy.
I TiVoed the episode, so I don’t know the answer to the question yet. So all this was for nothing except to say House Rocks and more importantly:
Frank J. is a most Honorable Ronin.
