I'm a cat person and also have a weird hobby of genetic evolution and often wonder at some point in the future when animals become more intelligent what they would be like....playing chess in particular. I think cats would have a plan, exhibit patience until just the right moment and them ponce.... I know this is off-beat, but what is your animal and their style???

My dogs Miko and Niko would play gambits with the black pieces.

All bark and no bite...

Did not know there was such an attack. Any other openings or variations named after dogs?

My pet monkey would play the TRUMPowsky Attack (actually Trompowsky)
