Greyhounds And Cats ;-)

[pastafreak]

Who said greyhounds always chase cats?

[Tilly2]

Me!

[PankySmooch]

They don't unless the cat was running then it would rip it to shreds

[pastafreak]

Plenty of greyhounds live and play with cats.

[Tilly2]

That's what I meant about keeping it away from cats.

[Tilly2]

When Tilly, our Staffie goes, we are thinking of having a retired greyhound. There is a greyhound racing track not far away from us and they often advertise their retired Greyhounds. They seem such gentle and amenable dogs.

[PankySmooch]

They make excellent pets Tilly, they like long walks and even longer naps

My Sally is a lurcher...supossedly a whippet x. But everyone assumes she's a small greyhound so there may be some grey in there. She's the sweetest tempered dog...shy with people. Likes a few mad moments when out...then just trots along...looking elegant. I'd have another if I could...but I'd also need another sofa.

they don't all but they are sighthounds and if they have raced, then that tendency (chase small furry things and kill them) will have been stimulated and encouraged.

My niece has two greyhounds and is a member of the retired greyhound adoption society for the north east of Scotland. She says they make great pets.

I've got a photo somewhere in the archives of Spider, our greyhound curled round four very young kittens, he was babysitting while their mother was having a meal ....he never chased any of them but then he was brought up with them.

The one cat seems to be missing a tail !.

[seekeerz]

Could be a Manx tony

[tonyav]

Thats what I thought, seekeerz. But that cat doesn't even have a small stubby one.

[seekeerz]

Looking at the clip again, both cats seem to be almost tail less - lovely interaction between cat and dog ;))

[tonyav]

Your right, seekeerz. I've just had another look and the little one seems to be tailless to.

[pastafreak]

In the comments,someone says the cats are Japanese Bobtails...they only have a stump.

[wolf63]

It actually looked as if it had a black nappy on.

That poor dog looks long suffering :-)

[Old_Geezer]

It's probably already had it's dinner.

[woofgang]

I don't think that dog looks happy. I also think he looks old and frail.
