I was just reminded that Coda knows how to manipulate me fairly well. She wanted food. To get me off the couch (I was checking email - I've been out ALL DAY. I am NOT LAZY. Today, anyways.) she walked over to the back door and looked at me. This is her signal to me that she wants to go and sunbathe on the patio. I got up, walked over, opened the door, and watched her walk away the look at me like I'm a dumbass. So I closed the door. She did this again. I finally determined she was crying wolf, and then realized it was her afternoon feeding time. So I fed her. And then proceeded to get up and go the same motions when she really did want out.
Here's the kicker. She normally just pesters me to get up, then walks over to her bowl and I realize, 'Oh yeah! It's food time!' What was up with today???
