    I guess she might drink anything but I left it empty because she gets excited and would have knocked it over.

    How old is she? She looks almost like a puppy. Young looking. Surprised she didn't knock the hat off.

    Oh no, she's 10 years old. She is very smart though and can do a lot of tricks. She was waiting for a treat.

    Aww so sweet. I think training a dog is fun. I taught my old dog some tricks too. They're so willing. Unlike cats...

    I'm not sure! That sounds great! I can call him to come to me, that's about it. I haven't actually tried training him to do anything.

    Well it can be done. I trained one of my other cats when I was younger to fetch too.

    My cat trained me, to refill his bowl the second it's empty.

    First he comes up and stares balefully at me. If I ignore him, he begins to chew on my computer cord. If that doesn't work, he unsheaths a single claw, the equivalent of his index finger, and pokes me in the leg. I've never discovered the next rung on his ladder of torture, because by that point, I cave. So his dish is never empty more than two minutes at a time.

    Which is why he now weighs twenty-one pounds, which is six pounds more than the vet says he should weigh, and I'm trying to switch him over to "healthy weight" fat fucker diet kibble.

    hahaha, my other cat also tells me by certain meows that his bowl is low, if he can see the bottom in even one spot, then it just won't do.

    You trained him to overeat. Now you'll have to untrain him.

    I taught one of mine, Sneakers, to Go Fetch, but then she wanted to do it all the time, and I untrained her. But I do train all my cats to answer to their name, stay away from the door, stay off certain areas, stay out of the Christmas tree, and sit on my lap while I clip their claws. Oh, there's also a category of objects called "Not Yours!"

    I have a cat that loves to eat so much he's willing to draw my blood over it. He's a good boy otherwise, who uses his scratching post instead of the furniture, stays off the counters, and generally behaves himself. But when it comes to food, I had a choice of giving him what he wants, living with a constant row of scabs up and down my leg, having him declawed (which is like amputating the first knuckle of each toe on his front paws,) or putting him outside, which would be worse for his life expectancy than letting him stuff himself.

    If you think I'm abusing him, you're welcome to rescue him from me. I'm sure you'll have him slender in no time. If you don't bleed to death, first.
