Cats creep me out. You can never tell what they are thinking. With a dog, it's either "give me a treat", "pet me", or "let me outside". I don't even want to think about what runs through a cats mind.
The most recent cat I had was named W.B. (wheat bread). The dogs would chase it up the trees (HUGE pine trees), one day it ran up a tree and couldn't figure out how to get down. It stayed up there for almost a week. It was probably 40 ft from the ground. Finally I decided to try and help it out, so my friend got on the roof and held a ladder in the direction of the tree. The cat was freaked out by the ladder, probably because it didn't have any food or water for days.. I went into the house and grabbed a slice of bread and threw it towards the ladder. Somehow I managed to not only hit the ladder, but got it stuck in the top rung(sp?). The cat instantly jumped from the tree to the ladder and ate the bread. After that it would get scary when you gave it bread. It ran away a couple weeks later. So if you are ever in western wisconsin and eating wheat bread, watch your back.
