Last night I was listening on the internet, to a Veterinarian call in / Talk
show. I found this rather interesting. They started talking about, and anyone
may not find this as interesting as I did, but anyway. They have through long
work, testing and study and breeding, come up with a new breed of cat. What
makes this cat different, is, it is a Cat. But it has the social tendencies of
a dog. Many people like dogs over cats, as they are pack animals and love to
be with people all the time and are much more social than cats are for the
most part. They said this new breed looks like a cat, but has the social
demeanor of a dog. I found that odd but interesting. I never grouped the two
together, nor do I think we have to. Each animal having it's own pros and
cons. Yet I have heard that many people do not like cats as they do tend to be
loners, and only want to be close when it suits them, where as a dog wants to
be around humans all the time. They claim the new breed is fascinating. I can
see how they can breed in certain traits, but how do You make a more social
cat through genetics is pretty odd, but interesting.
  
Have a good One!
