This afternoon we saw blind Callie trying to work her way into the cat house, apparently by going under the door. Now, given her ample girth, this would be right up there as a feat with the Biblical "camel going through the eye of a needle." But she knew there were cats right behind the screen door, and she could hear and smell them because we had the interior door open … so those cats were oh-so-close.
Callie is fascinated with cats. Not in an aggressive way, but she has this obsession about them that I think is compounded in part because she can’t see them. I suspect that makes them more mysterious and intriguing. She’ll often sit next to the cats’ outdoor enclosure, barking and barking at the felines on the other side of the fence. We’ll finally have to call her off for both the cats’ sake and our own.
But this was the first time we’d seen Callie attempting to get through the door like this. After taking the photo above, I walked over to see who was behind the door … and it was Tibby, the youngster with the deformed legs. He knew she was on the other side, and I think he was teasing (taunting?) her by scratching and tapping on the door from the inside with his paws. When I opened the door, he gazed up at me with a "Who, me?" look on his face.
