Is he a dog or is he a cat?

Bob the cat is actually more akin to a dog than a cat with all his habits & foibles.

He eats like a dog, he acts like a dog and he even begs like a dog.

Here he is waiting for a type of meaty snack which he currently likes. They are a long stick and he can eat one in 30 seconds. A 'normal' cat would probably eat one over the course of about 7 hours.

When he really wants something, he employs this begging technique, which many years was christened 'The Dancing Bear' for the ungainly and unnatural way he balances. He knows that this is his top drawer trick and guaranteed to get whatever you have in your hand.

Look at those eyes. He is in the zone and 100% concentrated on achieving his goal; namely getting his mitts on that snack
