@catsalad The look in the kitty's eyes says
'As soon as I'm done with this indignity, I'm beating up the dog again!'
@catsalad oppression is the mask of fear.
@catsalad I'm just impressed you got the cat to sit there long enough for the picture to be taken :-)
@catsalad well, this cat remind me a Tex Avery's Anim called « Bad luck Blackie » (1949). So funny, a real danger for dogs...

@catsalad I know this anime!
@catsalad Dog never saw it coming. Void cat probably crept up from downwind as well.
That's not to be ashamed of. That's to be proud of.
