Cats and Dogs...

It's kind of funny watching the difference between dogs and cats in play. Jilly is smart, but Kitty is a much smarter hunter. It'll be interesting to see if that changes, the way Elphie got smarter as she matured. Right now Jilly doesn't anticipate where a toy is going, she just goes after where it is. It's a big change from Kitty, who will watch the toy move for a few seconds, until she *knows* where it's going, then she pounces.

Of course, the cats can also do some crazy midair acrobatics as well, and Jilly mainly stays on the ground (we also don't ask her to jump at her young age, so keep the toys on the ground too). Last night we started working on getting Jilly to touch the bells we got for her to use as a signal that she needs to go outside. It was kind of surprising, because she really didn't seem to like touching the bell. But we'll keep working on it.
