    Our cat will sit and stare at something (door, spot on the floor) until one of us gets up and goes to look. Then she walks off with a little kitty-smirk on her face.
    Does your dog do the same, Koszta?

    How many times have I gone to see what a cat is looking at only to have the cat walk away leaving me more bewildered than before. Especially a food dish. put food in the dish and the cat walks away eating nothing. I wonder if dogs are catching on to their antics?

    My compost pile was even amazed how many bull snakes in it. My male Fat Freddy use to point to it all the time. Dh give command Ok. He would dig like crazy and catch them. And whirl them-about 4-5 feet long.

    Cats have such a nasty sense of humor.

    Does she just point them out, koszta kid or does she catch them? We get a couple of baby garter snakes in our basement every year. I think they follow a vent inside, and every year, Moosie comes parading thru the family room with one in his mouth.

    Lynn, Now Ginger Just points them out.Other ones would BRING to Hand. What Dh trains dogs to do. Another Viszla brought him to hand. Live Muskrat-and was all teeth and very big. All he could say very loudly. "Good Maggy (out). meaning to drop at his feet. And sit beside him. As muskrat ran a way glaring over it's shoulder :D
