A friend told me a story tonight about his in-laws. They own two small hairy type of dogs (I can't pronounce let alone spell the breed) that they have trained to walk to the bathroom door and bark when they have to poop. The in-laws pick up the dogs, hold them over the toilet and then wipe their ass after they are finished.

Do you have a interesting habit with your pet? (Non sexual of course)
 
I use the dalmation as an ottoman, a blanket, a pillow, and a conversation partner.
 
I thought my cat to do tricks..

*Looks at my cat passed out on the floor* Lay down kitty! Lay down...
Good kitty! Yes, she's such a good baby.

Okay, now kitty, play dead..
 
My little callico cat will stand up on her back paws for kitty treats. Sometimes when she's snoozing, if I talk to her real quiet-like, she'll meow in her sleep.
 
JP the cat will indicate to me when it is time for breakfast and which position I should adopt for sleeping to ensure his maximum comfort.

He also lets me know when I should move the laptop or keyboard aside so that he may sit in my lap.

He is also generous, leaving some the best parts of birds for us on the doormat. Once, he even left the tail part of a rat; I think it was supposed to be a treat. I hope so.
 
My men know my every mood by now, and have learned it is better to give in and grovel, beg and plead.
Oh, not that kind of pet.

My bird knows how to get me to get out from under my warm blanket on the couch where I have just settled with book, wine and chocolate and come across the house to fetch him. For some reason he forgets he has two wings and can fly. Guess he thinks I need the exercise. It took me a long time to train him to do that.
 
My cat rules this place. She will sit on the keyboard when she feels that I have been on the computer too long. She is better than an alarm for getting me up in the morning to feed her. She is a great lapwarmer on cold days & knows when I need some extra attention after a bad day at work. Training a pet to use the toilet is more work than I care to do, a litter box does just fine for my kitty.
 
I taught my dumb ass Blue Healer how to close the door. Problem is now he jets into the house and slams it in my face, then sits looking at it expecting me to give him a treat. Come to think of it he always gets one. Maybe he ain't so damned dumb after all!
Comshaw
 
Merelan.....you could train my bird.............Just kiding...:D
 
I study with my cat. I lecture from my notes and he just lays there on my feet and listens to me.


Don't laugh - it works!
