Strange Cat Behavior
Another cat tale in the news today. An English cat called Sgt.Podge, well he lives in England but is in fact a Norwegian Forest Cat, has his owner, Liz Bullard, well trained. Every evening at the same time he goes for a one and a half mile walk. In the morning, same time same place, Liz picks him up in her car.
Ms Bullard said: “If it’s raining he may be in the bush but he comes running if I clap my hands.” When she opens the car door he hops in for the ride home. “As long as you know where they are you don’t mind as a cat owner,” Ms Bullard said. “I know where to collect him - as long as he’s not wandering the streets.”
Why on earth has this 12 year old cat started this strange behavior? It all began a year ago when got lost and was found in this area. The elderly lady who found him fed him on sardines and it seems that Sgt.Podge is hoping for more treats.
