I think the younger learnt from and/or joined in with the older one. I think the older one had watched too much Tom and Jerry. | |

Oct 24, 2012 at 20:14 | comment | added | Dunk | I personally don't buy the premise that cats and dogs fighting is inherent or unique just because they are cats and dogs. In my experience, dogs tend to chase after any animal it doesn't recognize, not just cats. I think the reason people associate cats/dogs fighting is because by and large, they are the most popular pets and the most common interactions between animals that people see. Once cats and dogs get to know each other they can be quite affectionate towards the other. | |

Removed photo because I am an evil moderator who hates fun (and also believes that photographers shouldn't have their work used without permission or fair use.))
