Kosmo is doing ok, just a bit jealous. I think in time he will be better. At least they aren't figting. New guy is a mini fawn Pei. We are considering the name Micro, since he is small and will remain smaller than a normal Pei.

She's actually an indoor cat but has developed a love for the outdoors. She sits by the door and meows (sounds like she's saying "Ouuutttt") until you let her out or give her something to distract her. She starts getting really insistent (her meow now sounds like "Nooowwww) until you let her out or distract her. Not much distracts her from outside. Back to dogs, when Amanda was 4 we got a dog named Liberty from the Humane Society. She couldn't remember the name Liberty, so we renamed him Bingo (yes after the song). He came no matter what you called him, even to "hey stupid!" Like someone else mentioned, I think it's in the tone of the voice and your immediate actions (holding a food dish, holding a leash, etc). Good luck with the new dog. How is Cosmo taking to him? Laura 2_cats (Oh yeah, the other cat just looks at you when you call him as if to say "Oh, sorry.were you talking to ME?"

Cats will not respond to anything except a shake of the bag the treats are stored in. Humans own dogs, cats own humans. --- On Tue, 5/12/09, tnands <sydstyr@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: From: tnands <sydstyr@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [GeoStL] Re: NGR - Dogs To: geocaching@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Tuesday, May 12, 2009, 9:53 PM LOL.. Our dog answers and responds to Indy, Dog, Move, and certain snap of the fingers. My inlaws had two dogs: Thunder and Lightning but both thought their name was "Thunder, Lightning" Nancy ----- Original Message ----- From: M.

Our dog's name is Gage, but the 13-year-old (a boy, can you tell?) calls him Buttface and he comes just as readily. They may both come because they expect dinner, a treat, a walk, some petting, etc......
