More animal shenanigans this morning. I fed the dog his breakfast and while he was eating, went out to depoop the backyard so that I could run the sprinkler there. The mostly white cat had been perched on the fence when I let him out to pee before breakfast, and now came over to be petted, and followed me around, eventually to the strip alongside the garage; then the dog, having finished eating, poked his head around the corner. The cat instantly took off through the gap in the garden gate, and the dog shot past me in hot pursuit, and smacked right into the gate.
