Many people nowadays keep purebred cats because they love their round, chubby appearance. For example, there's a type of short-legged cat whose legs are so short they might look jarring on a human, but on a cat, they're incredibly cute. However, their short legs also cause them some "troubles," like this pet owner's cat, which wanted to attack the family dog but couldn't reach it because of its short legs.
The pet owner owns an orange and white short-legged cat. Most people are familiar with short-legged cats and know what they look like. Short-legged cats are like Corgis among dogs—they have a low profile and look very cute. This particular cat is deeply loved by its owner; after all, it's just too adorable, and any cat lover would want to pamper it.
Because the owner only has one cat, it usually acts like a tyrant at home, doing everything, jumping and running around. Although its legs are short, it can manage most daily tasks. However, sometimes short legs can be a disadvantage. When fighting with dogs, which rely entirely on their claws, its short legs can't reach them.
That day, the pet owner's friend brought their dog to visit. The dog was very enthusiastic and immediately tried to greet the cat. But as everyone knows, to the cat, the dog wasn't greeting them, but rather a blatant provocation. Moreover, the dog was quite large and intimidating.
So, when the dog tried to befriend the cat, the cat wouldn't have it. The cat became fierce, even baring its teeth to threaten the dog to stay away. But it didn't work; the dog remained enthusiastic. Left with no other option, the cat resorted to its claws, trying to scare it with force. But little did it know, this time the cat made a huge fool of itself.
The cat confidently extended its claws, intending to give the dog a couple of swipes, but to its surprise, it didn't even touch a single hair on the dog's head. Embarrassed, the usually thick-skinned cat felt ashamed. So, it stopped attacking the dog, slowly retreated, found a spot, and buried its head in its owner's lap, refusing to come out.
It has to be said, the scene was quite awkward. However, the cat and dog's owners found it amusing and didn't seem to mind, frequently putting the two little guys together and taking all sorts of pictures. The cat, on the other hand, always looked resistant, seemingly genuinely disliking the dog.
Many netizens joked after seeing the photos, saying, "You only realize how short your legs are when you need them." Do you like this short-legged cat?
