just out of curiosity, it wouldn't be part Turkish Van would it?

If you have ever watched "The dog whisperer", you'll see Ceaser Millan, make that noise like "PSSTT!", that actually works with my cast also. It kind of startles them and they instantly stop doing what they were doing. But it has to be loud.
if you follow me, you avoid stepping in the crap that I just did...

I would imagine GSP + Cat = one GSP eaten by cat, and one cat dead by tetrodotoxin poisoning. Not sure if GSP's contain tetrodox, but I sure wouldn't want to eat one to find out.

The cat is a White Domestic Short-hair (as far as I know).
Water doesn't work on her and noises don't seem to faze her much either (other than dog barking)

What does work is a toy my son had as a child.... it looked like a spaceship but shoots round foam rings. If you can't hit her with them she will chase them and stops what she is not suppose to be doing.
