Hopefully you can picture this....
Zingo (orange and white, 12 pound short hair, male) makes it quite a point of chasing Plague(black, 6 pound long hair female) around the house at least once a day. Every once in a while she taunts him with this look that says "You can't catch me" and then they are off to the races. But mostly he just does it for the heck of it...evidently this morning she decided she had enough. Zing was just inside the bedroom and Plague was about 2 feet away in the hall. My husband, who observed all this, said all of a sudden Plague hunkers down, does the butt wiggle to rev up...and shoots straight at the Zing monster. Bowls him over and them holds him down and baps him over and over with her paws(no claws showing though! Thank goodness...). This went on for about a minute until hubby finally recovered from the shock of seeing her do this enough to break in and distract her. She sauntered down to the living room with a very cocky air about her...Zingo hid under the bed. It took about 20 minutes before he ventured back out and I think we may have to take him to therapy...my poor little guy! I picked him up, he tucked his head into my shoulder and held on...I felt so bad for leaving him...and laughing at him...just proves you gotta watch out for the quiet ones, they can turn on you when you least expect it!
