Ripley wants to play - Andy not so much! ;)

[Pam]

I didn't know where to post this so will put it also in Cat General. I took this a little while ago. 99% of the time Andy reacts like this to Ripley but watch out for the 1% when he doesn't want to be bothered - airplane ears and hissing! LOL! :) Wish I could have gotten a little of that this morning.

If Ripley would just play like a cat, I am sure Andy would be happy! Sooo cute! Does Bella ever try to play with Andy? Or does she know better?:)

[Pam]

Does Bella ever try to play with Andy?

No, not ever. Bella considers that type of play to be "beneath her." :rolleyes: :p

Ripley is a very brave dog!!! So cute!!! Andy is a big kitty!!!!

[pomtzu]

Feeling frisky on a cool (almost Fall) morning??? :D

Poor Ripley - he's making every "play signal" a doggie knows, and that "wierd white dog" doesn't get it!

[Randi]

Oh, poor Ripley just can't get Andy to play no matter how hard he tries - what a cute video! :D

[lizbud]

Awww Ripley, Cats just don't get it do they? :D

[Husky_mom]

LOL... poor Ripley... he must wonder why white "doggies" don´t wanna play with him...

that vid is soooo adorable ....... hey Rip, I have a couple here who would loooove to play with you... come on over! ;)

[FurkidsMom]

That is hilarious!!! I love it when Ripley reaches out to touch Andy's paw.

[K9karen]

Oh my sweet, adorable little buddy..I'LL play with you all you want! :love:

What a great video. :) Andy is one big guy! And he is so patient with Ripley. He just gave the minimal swats when he could have really unleashed on Ripley. In a way, it still seemed like they were having fun. Ripley was for sure! lol

Andy actually looks bigger in the photo than he is (maybe because he is white?) nevertheless he has put on some weight in the last 5-6 months. Since Trevor died, I switched Andy's food to Evo. I looked for a grain-free food since Trevor was diabetic, and I don't want that to ever happen to Andy, I figured *no carbs* was a safe way to go. I may try and find a "light" version of Evo, if it exists.

Thanks for your comments everyone. They do really get along quite well. Bella doesn't get involved. She thinks they are "silly." :p:D

OMGosh, that is so cute. Ripley is such a good boy. Just a little tap and an invitation to play. Come run with me, Andy. :)

[ramanth]

Ripley sure knows how to push Andy's buttons! :eek: :D

[Rachel]

Oh, Pam, that is the sweetest video. Ripley is just so adorable and such a gentle soul. I had to laugh as he was using his *inside voice*. Andy was cute too. You could tell that he wasn't completely indifferent to the interaction because he could have gotten up and left the area or gone to a place which wasn't accessible to Ripster.

[Alysser]

Aw, well they were playing, but not nicely. :D Andy's meow is so cute!

[4 Dog Mother]

What a cute video! Even though Andy doesn't really show it, I think he was enjoying the play as much as Ripley or he would have gotten up and walked away. I think Ripley was looking for a little more action though. Silly Ripley!
