(6,088 posts)He's over the bridge now, but when I found him, he had a broken leg, was emaciated, and had no hair. He had both the best and worst temperaments of both breeds. I nursed him back to health, thinking I would try to find a home for him, but failed at fostering...
He was a food snatcher from the start - would grab a loaf of bread from the counter, a stick of butter, or whatever was left out, and head out the doggy door in a flash.
Over time, he settled down. He loved tortillas, which I often eat for breakfast, so I always gave him a bite. One day, I was cooking breakfast, and out of tortillas. He was waiting so politely and patiently for his tortilla. I told him, "sorry, tortillas all gone".
In a dejected manner, he went out the doggy door. Moments later, he came back in with a muddy old pack of moldy tortillas that he had snatched and buried sometime before. I knew that he was my forever dog at that moment.

(24,902 posts)She would get on the nightstand under the window and paw at it until she made enough noise that i would wake up and open it to let her out. When she wanted back in later, she would jump up to the window and make enough racket that I would open it again to let her in. Eventually, I had to put a little table outside under the window for her to stand on to get to the window easier. She was a character! I miss her.

(10,782 posts)my mom's Siamese was a goofball. If you left a skillet on the stove, he'd jump up there and curl up in it.
Also, if you left a door open, he'd jump all the way up to the top of it and sit up there like a leopard in a tree on the savanna.

(11,681 posts)If she can see the bottom of her food bowl, she knocks it to the floor.
I can't put her bowl on the floor because my bunny gets into it and that's just gross.

Just the right size, evidently.
