My home consist of 2 Boxers & 4 cats,they don't know if they are cats or dogs,but they do know they are a family or should I say pack.Cletus is a 1yr old Boxer, youngest of my pack,& Izzy Cat is my oldest male cat,he's 9yrs.Last night Cletus & I were outside, & a Shepard dog comes walking down the st. by our house,Cletus runs down to meet him,Izzy Cat was on the porch watching, Cletus scared the dog & he started bristling at Cletus the 60lb baby,& Izzy Cat jumped off the porch ran down to protect his baby. Izzy Cat & Cletus escorted the Shepard right on down the st. both turned together & walked back to their yard.This was so funny,I had to share.All my babies really love each other like siblings. Cletus had his cat protecting his back!LOL, Hanley
