Our cat has an open window policy - she's indoor but can go out on the one roof so she's not ground level. However, clever cat found out a way to get down, and also back up again, with friends. Every once in awhile we come home to multiple cats hanging out in the house and the poor dog going berserk. She brings home friends. She's fixed, so it's just a catnip party at this point, lol No mistaken identity other than I have no idea where these extra cats belong.

I would notice in .5 seconds if an animal wasn't mine. This blows my mind.

We had a black lab that was an escape artist. A neighbor walked him back to our house one morning and was joined by an identical black lab also wearing a red collar. He had no idea which dog was ours. All ended well, fortunately. The new neighbors came to claim their twin dog from our yard.

And thats why, dear people, we microchip our pets...

This isn't just any guy's twitter feed - he's the partner of the potential prime minister of NZ.

Mom grew up with German shepherds. One day in her early teens she saw the female wandering the street (residential area) and followed her to a neighbor's house. Luckily she told the owners she was entering to fetch Ramona, as in reality it was theirs feral male. The owner told my mom to be still, got to her side and led her outside, both trembling, as the dog only respected her husband...

this is funny! but am i the only one who doesn't think these two look all that much alike?

So, Clark Gayford is the partner of NZ's Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern lol. Funny guy.

Years ago, I had several pet cats. Had a black female named Spooky. Was putting food out, all cats there to eat. Another black cat wants in to eat, so let it in. The one that came in was Spooks. One already eating was the stranger. Realized the stranger had been there for a few days. She stayed and was aptly named Phantom, Phannie for short. She was with us 3 weeks when she had kittens. Spooks had a name change to Grannycat. Granny was truly MY first cat, all mine. I had her for 18 years.

I also scraped a dead cat off the road and buried it thinking it was mine. Then my cat strolled up up and freaked me out!

We have a pair of rescue cats that we fostered from newborns, then adopted. One is black/rust, and his brother is pure white with just a touch of dirty grey on his face. Our neighbors across the street also have a white cat, and several times I've yelled at Luke to get home, only to learn it was the other cat. I always knew if someone claimed Luke, that we could identify him by his one green and one blue eye, and smudged face. A few days ago, I was talking to my neighbor, and she commented that she loved that her cat has one green and one blue eye. I was flabbergasted. Her cat was from the litter their mama cat had; mine was abandoned by the railroad track. What is the likelihood of two white cats both having dual colored eyes living right across the street from each other. At least the neighbor's cat doesn't have a dirty face.

Lady Sandy Beech has the best story. (glad she kept the new dog)

A friend trapped a pesky skunk that had been terrorizing the neighborhood in a live trap. They went to release it on the Indian reservation and the neighbors cat ran out of the trap.

Am I the only one freaked out by his 79 unread texts and his dangerously low battery life in the pic? Seriously, 79 unread texts!!
