When he saw the cat, he bolted so quickly that he jerked the leash from my wife's hand, and from there it was ON! It was then that I learned that my cat was a southpaw. After a few encounters that resulted in bloody scratches on Charley's snout, however, there was a period of relative calm. Nowadays, however, Sophie (the Cat) will occasionally pounce from some hiding place and startle the dog. Just the other day I caught Sophie on top of the fridge attempting to knock a cookbook onto the dog's head.
