Hey, Med ... Real men love cats.

We ... She's a little feral cat who honestly thinks she's a lion. There's that reasoning thing again. Honestly, this cat is so damned territorial its scary. No other animal is allowed anywhere near my place. I saw her take on a big Raccoon one early evening. The Raccoon hightailed it as fast as he could, with my cat in hot pursuit. Haven't seen that Raccoon since. ~lol~

I've always had cats. One of the things I admire most about them is their athleticism. Their bravery is to be admired too. They have lousy, crappy attitudes though. Unlike a dog, a cat would just let you die in an emergency ... then wonder later where the food went. There's that reasoning ability again. ~lol~

I have a sneaking suspicion both dog and cat would consider us food if push came to shove! I sometimes catch my dog eyeing me up in an uncomfortable way....

Most animals can be seen to reason, you not seeing this is a form of your own myopia, and your own delusion of grandeur.

~lol~ ... Yes, we humans certainly have our faults. But so far, my cat has yet to place one record on my turntable.

May ...

I just found this article that sheds a whole new light on the subject:

Lost parrot tells veterinarian his address

Wed May 21, 7:26 AM ET

When Yosuke the parrot flew out of his cage and got lost, he did exactly what he had been taught — recite his name and address to a stranger willing to help.

Police rescued the African grey parrot two weeks ago from a neighbor's roof in the city of Nagareyama, near Tokyo. After spending a night at the station, he was transferred to a nearby veterinary hospital while police searched for clues, local policeman Shinjiro Uemura said.

He kept mum with the cops, but began chatting after a few days with the vet.
"I'm Mr. Yosuke Nakamura," the bird told the veterinarian, according to Uemura. The parrot also provided his full home address, down to the street number, and even entertained the hospital staff by singing songs.

"We checked the address, and what do you know, a Nakamura family really lived there. So we told them we've found Yosuke," Uemura said.

The Nakamura family told police they had been teaching the bird its name and address for about two years.

But Yosuke apparently wasn't keen on opening up to police officials.

"I tried to be friendly and talked to him, but he completely ignored me," Uemura said.

Haha, maybe a 6th sense or something? Good story ViRedd, pretty cool stuff.

Have you ever watched that Life of Birds documentary? there is a bird (can't recall the name) that as part of its mating calls will imitate various noises it hears - one of the things it mimics is a chainsaw with subsequent tree falling noise - truly astonishing!

EDIT: just looked up the name - it is the Lyre Bird
Attenborough - Lyre Bird
