Amazing cat has dog-like tendencies!

Back in the day, I was the proud poppa of an incredible cat named Tac. Tac (cat spelled backwards) was no ordinary cat. He enjoyed being petted, chased cows for fun, and fetched tennis balls!


PHOTO ABOVE: Tac fetching a tennis ball. Notice Tac and the shadow he casts. My judgment is that Tac was a full foot and a half in mid-air as he pounces upon the ball.

Tac would not only fetch the balls over and over again, but he'd chase them down as I'd throw them out onto a field 20, 30, 40 yards out!
