Guard Cat

When I was making this page for Cole I started looking up things about Manx cats again because I always find it fun to see all how most of the traits really do fit Cole!

When I read about how they make a low growl sound when they feel threathened, and sometimes even chased off dogs, it made me laugh because that is exactly what Cole does!

Before I got Cole, we used to have a real problem with neighbor dogs "adopting' us, they would come to our house and never want to leave, and would only sometimes leave, probably when they got hungry because we never fed them, they just liked our house so much that every dog around wanted to stay here.

After having Cole for a few years, that problem ended and now almost no dog dares to come around, and if they do it's never more than once or twice. Cole and my sisters cat have a method of chasing them away.
My sister's cat Kita plays "bait" and when a dog comes up to him, suddenly Cole will pop out of nowhere and attack, and then Kita will suddenly stop acting the part of a cowering cat and attack too!

Even before Kita (he is only about 4 years old) she had our yard free of dogs, but now that he is here, and even though they don't get along, chasing out dogs and other cats is the one thing they like to do together.


Once when she was a tiny kitten she was kidnapped by a 2 dogs!
They put her down in the woods near our house and blocked her in, and they wouldn't let anyone come near her. She was mewing and mewing such a sad little mew, but we couldn't get to her at first!
We were scared she was hurt!
My sibs and I tried to lure the dogs away, and we eventually got one of them to move away, but the smaller female dog wouldn't leave her and barked viciously every time we would get near!
Finally we got her and she was completely unharmed, she was only full of slobber. For some reason that dog decided to make Cole her own baby, even though she had never had any babies of her own and was spayed. She didn't want to hurt her, she wanted to have her for her baby. She tried a few times after that to get her too!
Ever since then, Cole really hated dogs.
