It turns out to be nemeses, I am sure one of those bright spelling bee kids would have told me. Any way I ask because currently the dog, Thomas Jefferson, is being tormented by his nemeses, the two squirrels that run around the rooftop of the house next door and on our window ledges.
I have no doubt that they know what they are doing, you can see it in their eyes (squirrels are not 24/7 for nuts like most people think). They like to sit as near to our windows as they can get and stare in as Tommy looks back and it drives him wild. I am not sure he would know what to do with a squirrel should he catch one but boy does he want the chance. He becomes quite mesmerized by their squirelly antics and it really gets him excited. One time Tommy actually leapt at an open window to get at one and had it not been for the screen on the window he would have got quite a surprise falling from a third story window.
Tommy actually got so excited he just left me a little present in his litter tray, that is right he is house trained (now if only we could train him to flush it). But know he is back to spying on his mortal enemies who I suspect are planning an attack on the apartment, an attack which I hope Tommy will protect us from. Squirrels may be bat shit crazy but Thomas Jefferson can mix it up when he needs to.
