Hah! You may not know much about cats, but I can assure you there is only one reason that Rana decided to curl up on the dog bed... to show Trink that she could! It's still amusing to me to see this tiny 6-pound cat control where a 62-pound dog goes simply by lying in the right spot, slowly flicking her tail, and just
looking at the dog with that steady stare!
And I have decided to take Trink to an agility class, to see if that will help build up her confidence some. Fingers crossed, and prepared to be the slowest team in the class, but we'll see how it goes. Currently when she goes tearing around the backyard and leaps across the corner of the flowerbed, it's just pure poetry. It'll be interesting to see how she does with actual jumps.
