But how many cats would let a dog push them around?
When my sister’s cat comes to visit, the cat sort of avoids Pokey, but there can be some paw swiping from the cat.
And every so often when we are walking Pokey sees a cat and thinks he’ll go over to say “hi”, and I say “I don’t think that’s a good idea”. Especially since one time we saw two cats on a porch (on long leashes) and he made a move and they came rushing down the stairs to hiss at him.
He wasn’t going to do anything, just visit.
I think he treats the groundhog living in the area the same way. One time we saw it in the backyard, and he hurried over, but not the pull like when he sees the rare dog he doesn’t like. The groundhog did run for cover. Another time the groundhig was just kind of curled up, not moving, and Pokey just stood there, just looking, almost mesmerized.
