Doppler Is Territorial

We never thought of her as territorial. Maybe we misjudged?

There are three places to sit here and Doppler has spots on each. I am keeping her from her full rotation.

I have spent much of the last week laying on a sofa in the family room. It is the only one large enough for me to totally sprawl out–exactly what I need. Meanwhile, over the past few days we’ve noticed Doppler pacing uneasily.

A while ago I got up for a bathroom break. Within 30 seconds Doppler was bedded down where my head had been. She is a calm puppy at the moment.

I have moved across the room. My feet are up on the sofa’s arm rest.

The things you do for love.

  1. my friend sent me a Mothers Day card from my cat. It said “Happy Mother’s Day” and then inside “Now get out of my chair”.

  2. Our Rattie Jack does the same thing! Within 3 seconds of my husband getting up…he’s in the seat. If he wants the seat,he will stand in front of him..bark – and when he barks, his little legs jump in the air – A few times I could have heard him say “Up, Up!”

    And yes…he gets up and moves to another seat as well! That’s when I think he owns us and we are the pet! 🙂

  3. You said, “The things we do for love” the love between animal and man is pure especially on the animal’s part,she wants to be close to you because she senses your not feeling well.I have been sick for almost 2 months and my cat is “glued” to me, much to my pleasure and comfort.

  4. Tell me about what we do for love — I am now going downstairs to babysit my daughter’s Himalayan cat (yes, I am a dog person!) — “Mollie” likes someone to keep her company and watch TV with as she gets lonely and literally CRIES… so we watch TV together for 3 hours a day til our daughter gets back. BTW, she likes her cat food warmed up for 8 seconds in the microwave as well and prefers to be fed at 9 am and 6 pm promptly… lol…

  5. If I’m sitting on the couch, my dog will bark at me to get horizontal so he can get on top of me to snuggle (fortunately, he’s only 10 lbs). Isn’t it nice to know your place in the “pecking order”???????
