Trevor, never show any guilt, even if it is fake. I think that you were a good kitty in teaching those D-O-G-S a good lesson! If the dogs were dumb enough to leave thier basket out, it's only right that you show your annoyance that it was in your way!!

"Don't try and anylize your cat's guilt feelings. He doesn't have any."
