Do you have a dog that thinks it is a cat?

My female Blue Heeler/Australian Cattle Dog thought she was a cat. It didn't matter which kitty's bed it was, it was her favorite bed to lay in. Not sure why she didn't like her bigger dog bed... But this was always how it was. She also preffered the kitty toys: balls, rattlers, mice, even the mouse on a string. She even did her best to steal their food.

Does your dog like to think it is a cat?

My dog licks herself like a cat most of the time. In fact, I think she and my two kittys run a race to see who can lick themselves the most. It literally makes me crazy when she does. The cats you don't notice when they lick but the dog has this horrible slurping sound that is so irritating. I swear she has been around them too long.

Oh, that is such a cute picture of your dog cuddled up in that little cat bed. Thanks for sharing! Does she get up and leave, when one of your cats want to sleep there? Or does she just keep on sleeping? I can not imagine one of my cats standing for this behavior! lol They would be like, oh no, you need to get up right now! Well, we do not have a dog, yet, but I am seriously considering getting one!

By the way, what type of breed is your dog? She is very pretty!

This sounds a lot like my dog. We already had a cat that was a couple of years old when we got him as a puppy, so I feel like he learned a loot of behavioral characteristics from our cat!

The funniest is when our dog stretches just like a cat does, and also the way he plays is very cat-like too. You can dangle a string in front of him and he will chase it!

Sounds lovely! Is she love eating fish? It will be OK if you want to keep a cat, because they would never fell out !

Ribbon, your post was hilarious! It had me laughing just imagining your dog doing the slurping! When my dog was alive, she was super noisy like that, so your story really struck a chord with me.
