Animal Whisperer?

Yesterday and today I had really weird experiences with animals. Here's what went down:

Yesterday I took Coco for a walk. This GIANT dog came up and was trying to get at her, so I picked her up.  The beast dog was very persistent and started jumping on top of me (it was my height when it stood up on it's hind legs) and trying to get to Coco. I couldn't get the dog to back off, so I headed home, still holding Coco and being mauled by the monster. I couldn't help but laugh thinking to myself how grateful I am I'm not scared of dogs because I would be passing out and how hilarious the sight would be for anyone who happened to be watching.

Today I got home from mutual and walked into my room to find a cat lying on my bed! Since we don't have a cat, and I HATE cats, you can imagine my shock. I'm pretty sure I screamed. Mom, the reasonable one, wasn't home so Dad and I came up with the brilliant idea of sending Coco in. This caused the cat to jump under my bed, Coco followed. The cat was literally hissing like you see in movies, and Coco was basically a basket case.  This obviously wasn't working, so I confined Coco while Dad swatted the cat out from under my bed with a broom. Then we decided to let Coco at it again (bad idea). If you have never witnessed a real live cat-dog fight, it's kind of hilarious. They chased each other around our basement barking and hissing. The devil cat ended up jumping onto our Foosball table, walking across the window sill, and leaping out the back door. Although I have some major battle wounds (scratch marks) it was hilarious. This might be horrible, but I kind of enjoyed it.
