We have a cat that sits on an end table next to an interior wall when it's dark outside and waits for cars to go by. When their headlights come through the side window the light runs across the wall and the cat chases them. Hours and hours. She's a "special" cat.

Got a Siberian Cat that plays all day with squirrels. Begs to go out in the morning, and then runs to the area in our ranch where the squirrels live. They chase him, and he chases them. I see them from a distance while working with my tractor, and then about 1pm you can find both cat and squirrels taking afternoon naps together. He always comes home like clockwork, right about 5pm asking for his dinner.

This isn't a pet (per se), but hoping someone finds this as funny as we did.
Most of our squirrels are away from house in the woods, but we do have a chipmunk we feed a mix of corn, seeds, peanuts.
It actually knocks on the storm door for food!
Yesterday I put food at end of driveway near it's underground home. I'm walking up driveway, it sees me and grabs an unshelled peanut and runs with it carrying it overhead, running on hind legs like a person...jumping down it's hole.

It's a show of dominance.
Our grandsons half brother was over. He's a little sh*t and poster child for birth control.
Everytime he would bend over to pick something up, our 5yo female shepherd would grab him and try riding him. The worst part was she would look over at you and give you the cool "whats up?" look.

Buddy Hackett, on the Johnny Carson show, told this story about his friend's vicious Pit bull. Seems he was invited to their home for dinner, and they were sitting around after dinner, just visiting, and catching up on their gossip, and the pit bull comes over and starts humping his leg. Buddy said "Hey, stop that!" and the dog looks up at him bares its teeth and gave him a slobbering, vicious growl. Buddy then says "OK, but hurry up!".
This one wasn't my pet and it wasn't strange or funny... it did P*** me off though. One of the disadvantages of living on a lonely backroad is that people think it's a good place to dump their unwanted animals, whether it's squirrels, woodchucks, or domestic animals.
On Sunday my neighbors were telling about a kitten they'd seen hanging aroung my chicken coop. I didn't think much of it at the time but...
Last night I got in late so put the turkeys in by flashlight, with the help of Ruger. First thing this AM I went down to let them out and check on the chickens...
That kitten was laying next to the henhouse, dead. I suspect that it starved to death.
Anybody who chooses to get an animal needs to understand that they owe it to that pet to care for it. Among other things they need to spay/neuter it unless they are a bonafide breeder and know what the **** they are doing.
They also need to know that it's a lifelong commitment. If situations change, at least grow a set and take care of it properly; find it a home, leave it with a shelter, or at the very least take it to a vet and have the animal put down.
I am not a cat lover yet I wish that I had put some food out for it, and perhaps a Havahart; then taken it someplace where the animal would have been cared for.
They say there's a special place in **** for people who will abandon an animal; I wish we could give them a taste of that in this life.unch:

I hear ya, Mate. One of my 'next door neighbours' is a State Forest and some critters do get dumped there. Roosters were popular for a while...
Anyway, that's how I came to be adopted by my cat. She showed up, as a kitten, at my backdoor on a cold dark Winter's night. I could just hear a tiny mewing and, as I approached the door I thought to myself, "If I open this door, I'm DOOMED."
Of course I had to open my door. And have the vet check her out. And have her spayed, her 'shots' & worming pill, 'chipped', etc...
