cats and dogs

When I was little, I used to think that cats and dogs thought in English???

Until age eleven, I thought that all baby poodles were pink and fluffy, and that when they got older, they turned white and 'curly'.

I use to think whenever you turned you bak on your dog, they'd have conversations with eachother IN ENGLISH! I'd always peek in the room and see if they where

I used to always color cats either blue or orange. This is because my friend had an orange tabby and because Tom, from Tom and Jerry, looked downright BLUE in a lot of the cartoons!

When I was about 10 we were visiting my uncle in Kentucky (from Illinois) and I fell in love with his angora cat. He said I could have it and we could take it home with us, but my dad told me it was against the law to take an animal across the state lines and we would get arrested by the FBI if we took the cat. So we didn't and I thought that was true for several years.

When I was little my great-aunt had a storage shed out back turned into a home for tons of stray cats. To get us to wash our hands after we played with them, Aunt Ruby would tell us "If you swallow a cat hair, it'll turn into a worm in your stomach." I knew that dogs and cats sometimes got worms so this made perfect sense to me. I believed it well into high school.

When I was younger I always wanted to pick my cat up but she was always too fast and got away before I could grab her. I thought that if a stayed really still for a few minutes she would think I was a statue and I would be able grab her before she could get away. I remember doing this right up until I was about 10...oh dear.

I used to think that if you had a pet with an unusual name (mine was a cat called Aspro lol), it meant that you would see a mental vision of what your future baby would be like, with how children and animals always get special love and care.

When I was little I asked my dad one day why bulldogs faces were flat. He said it was because it was sitting in front of a window and saw a cat running outside. It tried to chase after it, but ran into the window, smashing it's face. And that was what I believed for the longest time.

I used to believe that all poodles were female.

I was only seven when we got our cat Tigger. So when he had the "snip" I thought that the vet had cut his willy off. I didn't know much about sex stuff then and I thought it was really cruel as how whould he have a wee.

I used to think that on Christmas eve night, animals could really talk. Of course, i know now my mom only told me this to keep me in in bed, as she said " if you get up and see your pet on Christmas eve, they'll never be able to talk again, and this will make them really sad, because they can't talk to other pets ever again."

I used to think that the 'cat walk' was something only cat's did. But only really special ones, like my cat, because he was so handsome and clever, and that at night he would parade up and down a runway(just like with actual cat walks) infront of all the other local cats as they looked on in awe.

I used to beleive that when people say "its raining cats and dogs," i really thought that pets would be falling out of the sky.

When i was little and saw "LOST DOG" posters on street lights or on notice boards around town, i thought that when it said FOUND DOG that the animals that were Lost had been Found and they had put that up to let everyone know the missing animal had been found!

I used to believe that there was a dead body buried in my back yard because our dog would always run to the same spot and back every day when we let her out. She ran in the same place every day so much that the grass started to make a little path. I seriously thought it was because she could smell a dead body.

I used to think Alsatian dogs were called 'Old Stations'.

I used to believe when dogs bark and cat meow they are talking to each other
