Oh, I would do that, too (I have done it, actually) - except I these days I typically feed in the pasture (because I have no barn here). I considered that today, that maybe next time he just won't get to eat if he doesn't let me catch him. I'll bring Rosie in and feed her, then catch him and bring him in and feed him.

I do have to say that since these have been pretty much the only instances where he's been hard to catch, it amuses me greatly and doesn't bother me in the least.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

People with true credibility and integrity don't need to tell other people how great they are. They also don't need to belittle other people to feel superior.
