Boyfriend & Simon
Simon is an ex-counsellor & befriender I had, provided by my workplace. I
was bullied by a manager when my performance fell when my mother was found dead, but apparently it's OK to do that as long as they were seen to do the correct thing by providing a counsellor after bullying me into clinical depression. Anyway, I'm fine now, thanks to Simon and he visits me occasionally. Simon is the only person that Boyfie does not flee from. So yesterday, when the doorbell sounded Boyfie did not move from his chair where he was snoozing. Normally if anyone knocks on the door or rings the bell he is off to the back door to escape. I knew it was Simon, but I can't see how he did. We talked for ages with Boyfie asleep but twitching his ears. Just before Simon went home Boyfie got up, went over to Simon and invited an ear scritch which he got. The only person in the world who he ever allowed to touch him except myself. Tweed |

Actually, it's their hearing that conveys that information - everybody walks
in slightly different pace and movement. I can tell you, from personal experience, that they can also recognize vehicle. Archer will be laying in bed for me and, when he hears Ben pulling up to the house he becomes alert and watches the door for Ben to come through. He only does it when it's Ben - other vehicles pulling up to the house doesn't interest him more than a flicker of an ear. -- Hugs, CatNipped See all our masters at: http://www.PossiblePlaces.com/CatNipped See the RPCA FAQ site, by Mark Edwards, at: http://www.professional-geek.com/rpcablog/ "Christina Websell" wrote in message ...

I know you hate meowchat so, to quote what my cats would say "Cats just know
these things;" Like how they can know the mailman is coming when they are still out in the street. They just know. "Christina Websell" wrote in message ...

Ours can tell the difference between dh's GTO and the neighbor's RX-7, when they are at the street and our house is 250 yards from the road. The only reason I know this is because they always lift their heads even from a sound sleep when he turns into the driveway (Hobbes, Sam and Lacey would(will) go to the kitchen where Rusty will enter the house). Halfway down the driveway he hits the garage door opener which tells me he's home. I can hear the RX-7 when it arrives at their house and the cats won't twitch an ear. Julie |
