    The only pet that actually watches tv is Martha, but she only likes watching Bob Ross paint. She will sit there the entire time infatuated with it, never taking her eyes off it. Then again, she likes to sit and watch me paint, so I guess she just appreciates the arts!

    Adelaide likes to occasionally help us out playing video games by sitting and batting at the screen. If the game is too graphic or loud she wants nothing to do with it, though, so simple games like Wii tennis are her favorite.

    Mine only like to cuddle next to us when we watch something-- most of the time it's the news since there doesn't seem to be anything worth watching anymore. Gone are the good movies of yesteryear. We have one program about horses and that's all I watch-- although I did follow the Royal baby's arrival.

    When Moby was a kitten she'd bat at the hockey puck when there was a hockey game on. Diamond seems to like football and NASCAR.

    Snow will lay with me while I watch TV, but she never watches it. She will only perk up if there is a sudden loud noise, but other then that she doesn't take much notice into the television.

    The only one I know that actually pays attention to the TV is Zoee. If there is an animal on it she will growl. If it doesn't go away or it makes sound she barks at it.
    Sometimes even cartoons or a person in a costume has gotten a growl or a bark. Silly girl!

    Paizly likes to lay on me while I watch TV. I don't know if she's watching it or not, but she just likes to be with me.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I had a funny encounter last night, a clerk at a local store and I were talking. She was dog sitting all weekend for a friend, and after she got there, her friend called and said, "By the way, my crazy ex-boyfriend may try to break in while you are there." So she was already nervous, but figured the dog would alert her. She was watching TV to calm herself down, but then realized that the dog was not reacting to an intruder, but to the puppies on the "Too Cute" show on Animal Planet she was watching to try to distract herself. Needless to say, she didn't get much sleep all weekend! But the dog was happy!
