Sorry, but animals are NOT dumb, it is simply that WE do not understand them!!

AMEN, BROTHER!

(However... I think that saying was originally based on the other meaning of the word "dumb" -- as in unable to speak. But even that isn't entirely true... they just use a different language.

I hope I am posting in the right place here, and if someone wants to move my post to the right spot on this forum, please feel free to do so...

I wanted to know, sometimes when I'm fussing my Fudge and he's even coming up to me for love and cuddles, I'll be stroking away and his eyes are going "guey" and half-shut, why does he suddenly go and give me a nip?? Sometimes, it's much harder than that too - he'll dig his teeth right in and then run away as if he know's it "come keen"???

Is it a frustrated bite?? Does he suddenly not want me to fuss him?? Do I smell or something or have stroked the "wrong spot"?

Any comments would be interesting and helpful.
