Several days ago I was browsing Youtube on my iPad when I came across the following squeaky toy sound effect, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9U86c2Zf5og. My guide dog, Trigger is a lover of squeaky toys and has often driven me half mad running up and down my flat excitedly squeaking one of his toys, his tail wagging furiously. Given Trigger’s love of things which go squeak in the night I was interested to see how he would react to the Youtube clip.
On clicking on Youtube, Trigger jumped out of his bed and looked around a puzzled expression (well as puzzled as any canine can look) on his face. He then proceeded to investigate my iPad with his nose but, eventually retired in disgust to his bed wondering why whatever was making that squeaking sound refused to be played with! Trigger is now wise to what is happening and hardly dains to lift his head when that new elusive squeaky toy starts it’s squeaking.

Sounds about right – all far too much effort for him. 🙂
He probably thinks “why is my silly owner playing squeaky toy sound effects. Hasn’t he got anything better to do with his time?!” Does your cat like squeaky toys? Kevin
Ha ha … no. She likes sleeping, sleeping… oh and sleeping! She is sixteen so getting on a bit in years now. The most we get out of her is the odd moment of chasing a bit of tin foil… 🙂
Oh what a life, spending most of one’s time sleeping. I am really rather envious of your cat although I may pass on chasing the tin foil …
Ha ha.. I am thinking of coming back as a cat – absolutely! 🙂
Great idea, then you can have nine lives, tease dogs from the top of trees knowing they can’t get at you and be fed by multiple households! Kevin
See.. and all I was thinking was that I would be warm, well fed and get to sleep all day! Ha ha.
Haha. A good experiment but evil, evil master!
You haven’t seen the delicious joint of meat, dripping with flavoursome juices which is currently suspended above Trigger’s bed, just out of his reach …! I hasten to add there is, in reality no joint of meat due to me having eaten it! Kevin
EEEEVVVVILLLLL!
