My cats and dogs have a habit of hanging out in the hallway outside my apartment. The other end of the hallway is pretty dark. One day I saw both cats head towards the end of the hallway. After a while I saw Sumo come back and enter the fire exit which is located next to my unit. About 10 minutes later I saw him leave the fire exit and stand in the hallway.
I called out his name and he looked at me. "Can you go to the end of the hallway and pick up Bimbim?" I told him. He looks at me then he looked at the fire exit. So I answered him " No, I think Bimbim is at the end of the hallway - I can't really see her because she's black but just go get her." Once again he looks at the fire exit, so I told him "Just go to the other side and get her". So he starts walking in his slow lazy manner. When he gets to the middle of the hallway he starts meowing, I told him " I didn't tell you to call her, I told you to go pick her up." He continues meowing and lo and behold - Bimbim comes out of the fire exit. Shamefully I had to apologize to Sumo for doubting him and scolding him. Nice to know that he knows where Bimbim is even if I don't.

AuthorJoy has had 17-20 dogs, four cats, at least a dozen rabbits, three to four chickens and one turkey in her lifetime. She was close to her brother's bear cat and the snake, who she rescued from the attic. While in Canada she decided to get a cat and ended up with two. Since she lived alone she had to find ways and means to develop a harmonious peaceful relationship with her cats by "training" them. Eventually she decided to get formal training and invited dogs to join her family. Archives
