The Saga of Scout the Dog and Velcro the Cat

On Friday night, as I attempted to watch TV,  Scout and Velcro turned out to be more entertaining.

Scout was just shaking to play with Velcro (my perception) and Velcro was enjoying walking as close as
possible to Scout to spread out on the chaise as though daring him to touch her.

I managed to get up and get the camera while this charade was ongoing.  Both were so intent on what the
other was doing, or not doing, that they did not pay any attention to what I was doing.

 Velcro jumped up there in the prime place to lay on the chaise and to lounge in the sunshine..........

 Once Velcro was settled, Scout began his slow move to get as close to the back of Velcro without her puffing up like a fur ball and hissing as possible.

 There he sat, patiently............

 And more patiently.  Getting ever closer.........

 Then he decided to adopt the "I don't care and I'm not looking at you" attitude.

 Velcro appeared not to know he was there.  However, I KNOW she did!

 Scout could be the best bird dog on the planet because he held this pose for over five minutes.
I was quietly chuckling to myself.  Isn't he a beautiful dog?

Then he finally stood up and looked directly at Velcro.  I know she knew he was there as her
ears were moving each time he moved.  The saga was over.

Scout went home to his real home on Saturday.  Velcro, who had become used to in the past week walking on the furniture or counters rather then on the floor was ever vigilant.  I saw her checking out every place all day Saturday and even yestrday.  Nope, the interloper was gone............No one waiting for her to come in or go out the door.  No one waiting to get her milk, or vice versa.

Life has settled back to a dull meow.  I, on the other hand, have been removing white dog fur from the carpets for two days.  It was all worth it..............I so enjoyed taking the time to watch how the two of them managed to live in peace, sorta, and harmony.
