Cats and Dogs

Here are a couple of interesting links from news of the weird about man's best friend, and cats. :-)

Pit bulls rescue woman from attacking chow. [AP] Wait, isn't it supposed to be the other way around?

Black lab saves golden lab that falls down a cliff. [AP] It's like an episode of Lassie, only with an all dog cast!

And the one I'm still not quite sure about, Wisconsin residents are contemplating reclassifying stray cats into the same category as squirrels, skunks, and gophers. [AP] This will make it legal to shoot them on sight (is there a hunting season for them, or is it year round?) Apparently Minnesota has had a similar law for many years. And it's not like it will make it legal to hunt them in the cities, only in the back country. Still, how many hunters can tell if a cat has a collar on (and therefore isn't legal for shooting) from any distance? Tough issue.
