About a month after my wife and I adopted Choctaw, we learned a very interesting “thing” about her.  Whenever my wife or I would go to the bathroom and close the door, two paws would immediately be under the door.  It didn’t matter if you were in there 30 seconds or 30 minutes, Choctaw’s paws were constantly under the door.

One day, I took a photograph of Choctaw when my wife had gone into the bathroom.  I know her coloring blends in with the tile on the floor, but this is what you would see if you were standing on the opposite side of the door.  You can click on the photograph to the left to get a better look.  It was the funniest thing I had ever seen.  We could not get away from this because it happened every time we went to the bathroom.  We started sticking our hands under the door which made Choctaw want to play.  At some point, she would just lay down and look under the door to see what was going on in there.  I must say, this made bathroom time a little interesting.

When I took Choctaw for her first visit to the vet, she did the same thing in the vet’s office that she did at the bathroom at home. We were waiting on the vet to come into the room and Choctaw was putting her paws under the door while she was laying on the floor.  She must of had a birds eye view of the waiting room outside because I could hear people laughing. I don’t know if she was looking for my wife or what she was doing but it was so funny.  At some point in all this madness, someone walked by and put their hands under the door which made Choctaw loose her mind.  Unfortunately, I had already stopped the video so I didn’t get that part recorded.

Needless to say, nothing was the same after we adopted Choctaw.  She has a unique personality that fits right in with our family. She and Titan have such an admiration for each other that’s so hard to explain to someone unless you’ve experience it.

Next up, Choctaw is adjusting to her new home and her new man!!
