Yup, I swear Kizzy is part dog.

He SNIFFS and plays fetch.

I bought some toys tonight, one was a fluffy feathery thingie on a string on a pole.

We were playing with it for an hour or so LOL. Whenever I would fling the toy on the bed, in his bed, or on top of his scratch post, he would go over and grab it firmly in his mouth and plunk it down in front of me. I couldn't believe it LOL.

I got tired before he did, and I put the toy away and sat back down on the floor. He proceeded to sniff me, under my legs, behind my back, my hands (literally sniffing like a dog) and anywhere that the toy had been. He was trying to find the toy.

I wish I had had my camera up there.

Does anyone elses kitties sniff or play fetch like that?
It made me laugh.

Nope...unfortunately he is only allowed in 2 rooms untill his ringworm culture comes back. Once that's back and he's free and clear, he will have the whole house to roam.

Before I got him, I did do research on the breed and saw that they could have the same attributes that dogs have. I just didn't fully believe it. Till tonight that is
Least I know what I have to look forward to.

Ha ha - how old is Kizzy? My Ragdoll Smudge does the follow me all over the house thing. He doesn't like to be cuddled a lot, but he's ALWAYS right behind me wherever I go.

Jack insists on playing fetch every evening. He'll bring anything he can find to fetch with--he has a couple foam rubber balls he prefers but he tends to lose them in the basement. One night be brought a pen, he'll bring tissues from the trash, wadded up paper, milk jug rings, straws.

He'd play for hours if we'd keep throwing.

He's just your average DLH stray off the street--knew both parents and neither is maine coon, although looks maine coon which I've read tend to be dog like as well.

They say that the Shiba Inu is a rather catlike dog.

Wouldn't it be fun to have a Shiba and a Ragdoll at the same time?
