Today Buster was out meandering in the yard. He had no idea that he had a visitor. Sitting on top of the fence spying down at him. For about 3 minutes, Buster kept smelling over in the corner of the fence. He smelled this cat. He just couldn't find him. He kept sniffing all around the fence for minutes... THEN... the cat as he stood with his hair standing straight up.. balancing two paws on one post, two on the other starring down at Buster... The cat flinches and their eyes meet.
Buster starts to growl, with a few barks. He said, "Come into this space and you won't leave the same way you came in." They stand dueling eye to eye like to cowboys in a showdown. I was kind of scared for the cat. They stood still for seconds that seemed like hours. Then Buster flinches and the cat tip toes speedily across the entire fence line as fast as lightning on his way to anywhere but here.
Buster protected his space. He is our cowboy.
