Yesterday while were chatting about how to put together our new website, Zoory.com, Lucky, Gloria, Spook, Chance and Gretal all added their input. Though Lucky really wasn't interested I guess, turning away and heading upstairs for a nap, Chance scratched behind his ear in deep thought, Spook asked for more information and Gloria brought a vole for our consideration. Gretal barked out orders and we ended our conference with a motion that we should include more food interest. They basically round out our family of fur babies the first four being cats, and Gretal the dog. I just recently read a cool article by Peter Chianca regarding "what your pet is possibly thinking?" He refers to an ABC News dot com article where researchers are testing what animals feel. Do they think and can we communicate with them? Do they enjoy a good laugh like the rest of us - (or are they just laughing at us?) I have seen utter humiliation on the face of a dog, sadness, fear and anger and joy. I think dogs already show themselves really well. But if you look into that vacuous space behind a cats eyes you see - OK...nothing. Though they are obviously secretly plotting as to when to get fed and exactly what to be fed (we find this out by 'taste testing'), how to get you to volunteer to scratch behind that ear, how to convince you to move over so the best spot on the sofa goes to him or her and how open the door sixteen times a day. I'm not fooled, my shirt says staff and I accept my title.
