   I don't know how deep they took it into the dog tendencies. 8) I will say this   
   on a serious note as this struck a memory for me. When I was in High school,   
   and I may have already told this here a while back. We had a Siamese cat.   
   There was a bunch of us guys over to the house and this one guy was teasing my   
   cat. I kept telling him to knock it off, but he kept grabbing the cat by the   
   face and would not let the cat move. I finally had to threaten him ( I hate   
   when people tease animals ) and he finally let go. Bee ( which was short for   
   Barnaby ) ran into the hall and to a bedroom. 2 minutes later Bee came flying   
   out of the bedroom and jumped up in the air and swiped his claws right across   
   Tomasettis' eye. Cutting him from above the eyebrow to the tearduct. He then   
   ran back in the bedroom and stayed. It actually was a viscious attack. I have   
   never seen a cat do that. I mean they may fight at the time, but to actually   
   hold a grudge and come back minutes later out of the clear blue and get his   
   licks in, was kinda bizarre. I'll be honest thinking as I high school kid, I   
   thought Tomasetti deserved it and the whole bunch of us there had fun in   
   school the next week as Tomasetti's eye turned black and blue and he looked   
   like he had been in a bad fight. Everybody was walking around laughing and   
   saying Roberts' Cat kicked Tomasetti's A$$ Heheheheh, he was so embarassed, he   
   never picked on Bee again. So Cats can attack and the results aren't pretty

   My Mom Used to throw straws for one of her cats and they would play that game   
   quite a bit. Some do Fetch.. It is cute to watch.   
      
    > taking showers .. he never attacked people though    
      
   Wow, never saw a cat that liked water at all, cept for maybe to drink a little   
   dribble from the kitchen sink. In fact whenever I got a cat near water "I"   
   almost got my A$$ kicked ;)   
      
   Attack is not good and lets hope they don't pee on Your leg either. :) A   
   friend of mines son came back for a visit from the service, he had his captain   
   with him. As the guy was introducing the captain to his Father the family dog   
   went up and peed on her leg.. Heheheheh, Not good!   
      
        
   Have a good One!
