I enjoyed these very much...
 

Thanks Brian.

The one with the dog with no front legs was totally inspiring.

I think that owner was very loving and positive for this dog. I wonder if
she has thought to take the dog to nursing homes, etc? or daycares for children with special needs? He would be wonderful there!

Thanks for posting the u-tube. For those who like animals----Animal Planet has new videos of pets and animals doing funny stuff...I saw some very entertaining new cat ones on the holiday. Planet's Funniest Animals is the show.

Let your four legged friends whatch!
 

I leave Animal Planet or a "cat sitting video" on for my cat when I go to doc aptts - he was a rescue and suffers bad abandonment issues - (after a year we're finally making progress) - but this I can tell he's watched way too many episodes of "Meerkat Manor" (on Aniaml Planet) he's watching the birds outside today standing only on his hind legs - balancing! (just like a Meerkat!) Maybe I can teach him to do sunmersalts like the cat in the video or some of the other tricks:cool:

Your very welcome Daniella, i am glad they brought a smile.

MrsD, its truly marvelous what that dog owner & the dog itself has acheived, unbelievable.

Kneb, i can see your cat will never leave home :D

Brian,
I just saw the cat videos and they are real hoot - was laughing so hard that Vicki (my wife) heard me all the way upstairs. I got her to watch too so she could see what real cats do as opposed to her 13 yr old furry lump that lays about and sleeps ~20hrs a day, play time for him is usually 1-5:00AM.
In any case these were really great - I'll save them for future days.

Decades ago....
 

There was a book published called 'The Silent Meiaow' or the like... That cat I had at the time...well, I have to say that HE must have read that book while I was at work! He starting doing things spontaneously that he'd simply ignored before I got the BOOK!

Example I would sew...cat would be looking out the window...until I got the book -THEN he would sit on the backside of the machine to 'hold the material' down...Then he'd decide to 'play' with the machine arm as I was trying to sew...adventures continued...No doubt he read that book..

Imagine what trouble cats could get into if they learned how to get into YouTube? That is one scary prospect! - j

I am glad you enjoyed them Alkymst, we have a 18 year old cat with the same exercise routine as yours, just sleeps all day long :) she's only is awake for breakfast, lunch and tea :D

Dahlek, i think they are a lot smarter than we give them credit for and they KNOW exactly how to get our attention to them, they have trained us well :D

Sleeipng
 

I dont know how many of you watch Jay Leno (do you get to see him down under?) - but he's always talking about his cat that sleeps 23 1/2 hours a day - and also that the deer in his yard watch animal planet on his big screen t.v.

This is my creature with the issues -does he look at all concerned about anything? No, he knows I'll do it!

We do get a lot of your shows but i haven't seen a Jay Leno show myself, is he the guy that has a show like David Letterman, i sorta recall the name but if its the guy i am thinking of, i think i remember seeing him interviewing the late Steve Erwin at one time, sad stuff all of that.
Your puss looks like a very well loved and very contented feline, without a worry in the world :) ours lays like that too, but with her front paws sitting on her chest, makes you laugh.:D .

Good thing
 

that it looks as if he's on a bed!

He could be one serious TRIP CAT obstacle on the floor! - j

This one we have is a very serious trip cat, she doesn't walk beside you much but runs in between your legs, it was great fun when i was on crutches :rolleyes:
