My Cat Thinks She Owns the Neighborhood

Every morning, my cat Luna patrols the apartment hallway like she’s the self-appointed mayor. She sits by the door, ears perked, waiting for the faintest jingle of keys. The second our neighbor’s dog, Max, pokes his nose out, Luna transforms from a loaf into a full-blown security guard. She’ll stare him down until he retreats, tail between his legs, as if she’s protecting us from a 12-pound menace. But here’s the twist: when Max isn’t looking, Luna will sneak over to his door and leave a single toy mouse as a peace offering. I guess even the tiniest neighbors have their own diplomacy tactics. It’s weirdly heartwarming watching these two pretend to hate each other while secretly exchanging gifts. Maybe we could all learn something from our pets’ passive-aggressive friendship. Anyone else’s pets have a secret life with the neighbors? #PetStories #CatVsDog #NeighborhoodDrama #Pets
