That little low-rider girl hated to be laughed at.<br /><br />Cats, of course, hate to be laughed at. Too proud, I guess. Of the many cats we've had, only one loves to play the clown and actually enjoys being laughed at: <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-O-wVQUJ7HSg/UF7hd26Kv0I/AAAAAAAAEzI/zEFZA9tqK-k/s1600/Amber_Happy_Edited.jpg" rel="nofollow"> our sweet tortie Amber</a>.

They're...I love dogs (as I've said before). They're such clowns and they don't care if you laugh at them. Some will even clown more for the attention.<br /><br />I've always owned a dog, sometimes two or three at the same time, once a coydog (dog/coyote mix) . Some highly intelligent and a few as dumb as a rock. But even the dumb ones could read my emotions and try to comfort me when I was sad. <br /><br />Dogs are not programed machines and each has its own personality. The way they act and behave is determined much more by your interaction than by genetic predisposition.
