Animal Wednesday: Sumo Wrestler


Lately our cat Bliss has been wanting to cuddle up with our dog, Emma.
Not long ago Bliss went into attack mode when we first moved back to Rhode Island. Bliss wasn't well and she took it out on the dog. Emma won't soon forget that!
So when Bliss wants to cuddle, Emma gets up and slithers away.  
Not so yesterday. I was at the computer and heard a low moan come from Emma. My first reaction was 'she's having a seizure' because she has epilepsy. (We call it Emma-lepsy)
Anyway, I turned around to see Bliss pinning down Emma like a Sumo wrestler! Bliss is twice Emma's size and weight.
Bliss was determined to get that damn dog to cuddle!
Emma extricated herself after I snapped this picture:)

Happy Animal Wednesday!
Now go cuddle!

  5. Heeheehee! Lolo this is amazing that you got this shot!

    Wow, poor Emmakins - I love cats, but they can be so darn pushy sometimes, I bet this won't be the last time Bliss tries this!

    Have a great AW, glad the video made you smile!

  22. I too have a dog that was prone to fits until I started giving dolomite in tablet form.
    I did this daily for about 3 months and he hasn't had a fit since.
    He is almost 16yrs old and living a fit free life :)

    I love it that your cat is trying to cuddle your dog... cute and funny.

  24. Oh, what a terrific shot of both Emma and Bliss, although Emma looks like she's thinking...ok, Mom, take the photo and lemme outta here!...

    I wish I could have cats, since they are my favourite pet. Instead, I have two very large dogs who really don't like cats!

  25. At my daughter's house, the cat will stop to wash the dog's ears at every opportunity.
