For Hitchcock Fans

Fans of Alfred Hitchcock movies and cat lovers may appreciate this very short video of a "cat elevator":



True Hitchcock fans will have made the connection to the scenes in Rear Window when the dog is lowered down to the courtyard, where it ultimately meets its demise - but not due to the elevator basket!

This always seemed amazing that a dog could be trained to overcome their fear of heights in an unstable basket. But a cat?!!! That's beyond amazing. Maybe that's just what you do as a pet owner in a crowded urban environment.

Hmmm, maybe that herding cats video was real after all...

The Best Watchdog


It looks like the old joke has finally been proven true. We have one of those watchdogs that burglars fear the most - the kind they'll trip over in the dark! WebMd now verifies how effective they are!

In reality, she's a very sweet dog (ignore the reflective eyes in the photo) and an excellent watchdog...but clearly all bark!
