"You're a Cat"

We got to meet another one of our neighbor's yesterday who was out walking her dog.

I don't mind people who treat their animals as people (or children.) I used to do it with my cats. This dog's name was Daphne and the owner informed us that the dog, a white toy poodle, doesn't know she's a dog. "She thinks she's one of the kids," the woman says. "Don't tell her she's a dog because she really doesn't know."

The woman repeated this several times. When the woman stopped talking, Ashley pointe to the dog and said, very clearly and pronouncing each letter, "Cat."

So that's cleared up now.
