We have new neighbours and today we introduced our pets.  We have a 4 year old Golden Retriever, they have 2 dogs and 2 cats.  My dog is the friendliest creature on Earth, which totally sucks if someone ever broke in to our home, but that's another story.  Anyway, today she went over to the first cat and said "hello" (yes, she says hello) and the cat hissed and slapped her in the face.  Time for the second cat, and we had a repeat with the slap.  Cats are just bullies aren't they?
