Simply a Cat and Dog Moment

Snuggled up on the couch with Doug’s throw quilt over my lap, the sound of the TV is drowned out by the loud squeaking sound of Lucky’s favorite blue toy. SQUEAK-SQUEAK-SQUEEEEEEEEAK it goes, over and over again as Lucky pounces and bites at it, thoroughly enjoying himself.

 

Our cat, Whiskers Jay, sits upright on the coffee table close by, his expression clearly revealing his utter annoyance with the noise which makes me giggle just a little.

SQUEAK-SQUEAK-SQUEAK goes the dog’s toy; HISSSSSSSS goes the cat.

 

Lucky’s bliss is suddenly interrupted as the cat jumps off of the table and stands face-to-face with him.

 

The dog stands motionless, blue squeaky toy at his feet, and he looks confused. Surely he would utter “What?!?!” if he could speak English. The cat bears his teeth and lets out another loud HISSSSSSS and Lucky gets the message. “Oh…must be the blue toy…” he seems to acknowledge, and Whiskers turns and struts away.

For a brief moment Lucky doesn't move, until he makes eye contact with me and notices that I'm smiling. He smiles too and goes back to his business…

SQUEAK-SQUEAK-SQUEAK…
