Tiggy has found a new use for cats

She has started playing "the staring game" with Rowdy. It's a game that pits the superior sheepie brain against the inferior (in Tiggy's opinion) brain of a siamese cat.

Tiggy attempts mind control by staring at the cat and trying to make him run so that she can chase him, while he stares back and attempts to deflect the subconscious command. It can go on for quite a while if I don't stop it.

Ecco has tried this on her chihuahua. It often works, since Penny is usually anxious to get back to her warm sleepy spot. But once she takes a step toward it, Ecco pounces down, bowing and wagging her butt. Of course, Penny has to snap at Ecco and tear out a little hair when this happens. But, even despite the hair sacrifice, it's a good game.

Lucky for Penny, Ecco now has a kitty to entertain Ecco for the better part of the day, so the staring game only happens when she can't find kitty to chase.

As the kitty grows older and wiser and stops running as much you might see an escalation in the staring game. :D
