Cats are well known for their rather stand-offish approach to humans and the disdain that they sometimes appear to harbour for those who love them. However, one pet in Spain has apparently changed his attitude to life…and could possibly be possessed by the spirit of a dog from the afterlife!<\/p>\n

This is the bizarre claim made by Metro, after videos of the cat performing a number of tricks with his owner appeared online, leaving him looking a lot more canine than your average cat. <\/p>\n

Owner Barbara Connor, 55, said she had taught the cat more than 20 tricks over the last few years, which both she and Teddi loved to perform for their audience around the world via their YouTube channel. <\/p>\n

"I have a lot of fun thinking up creative ways for him to do things. If he thinks he’s a dog, that would be my fault," the Scottish expat, who lives in Malaga, told Metro. <\/p>\n

On the Teddi's Tricks YouTube channel, there are a number of different videos that show the cat doing a number of different tricks, including things like slaloming through poles and jumping through hoops. Who knows, if Crufts ever decides it wants to branch out a little, Teddi may well find himself taking to the floor for the famous assault course. <\/p>\n

And while most of his tricks are suitable for the dog show, he also does another array of tricks that are even cleverer than this. His amazing videos even show the cat ringing the doorbell at Barabara's house and changing the channel on the TV.\"ADNFCR-2867-ID-801780938-ADNFCR\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
