Vita, her German Shepherd, was born and raised to be a search and rescue dog. And in all ways but one proved to be a perfect candidate. Vita was booted from the program when she revealed her untreatable obsession; Cats. The sight of a cat causes her to go into a state of agitated fixation, unable to do anything but stare fixedly at the cat, in a ready to go - butt - in - the - air position. The beautiful black cat Cosmos's sideshow banner boasts "the hugest paws in captivity". To avoid being stalked by Vita, Cosmos has taken up residency in her mother's home.
