Hey Freya. I need some cat advice. Our Sheena cat now insists she sleeps on my spot. Any any way to lure her back into to the old arrangement?

My own experience is either
A. You will need to find a new spot.
B. She will get bored in a week or so and you will have your old spot back.

Of course you can always go with the drastic solution.
Get a puppy and put him in that spot. Cat will never go these again but it will be the dog's forevermore.

Frankly, I think your cat will find a new spot soon. They are very fickle when it comes to things like that. I mean, they were once worshipped as Gods in Egypt. They don't want us to forget that.  8888sitting kitty

Ok. Here's one, just posted today on Cheezeburger. It's just a video link. The upshot is there's a lady in hospice who's dying and her last wish is to snuggle some kittens.

The kittens are adorable and the lady seems so happy snuggling with them. This would probably be my last wish too.

Why we Shoot Deer in the Wild

Why we shoot deer in the wild. (A letter from someone who wants to remain anonymous, who farms, writes well and actually tried this)

I had this idea that I could rope a deer, put it in a stall, feed it up on corn for a couple of weeks, then kill it and eat it. The first step in this adventure was getting a deer. I figured that, since they congregate at my cattle feeder and do not seem to have much fear of me when we are there (a bold one will sometimes come right up and sniff at the bags of feed while I am in the back of the truck not 4 feet away), it should not be difficult to rope one, get up to it and toss a bag over its head (to calm it down) then hog tie it and transport it home.

I filled the cattle feeder then hid down at the end with my rope. The cattle, having seen the roping thing before, stayed well back. They were not having any of it. After about 20 minutes, my deer showed up--3 of them. I picked out a likely looking one, stepped out from the end of the feeder, and threw my rope. The deer just stood there and stared at me. I wrapped the rope around my waist and twisted the end so I would have a good hold..

The deer still just stood and stared at me, but you could tell it was mildly concerned about the whole rope situation. I took a step towards it, it took a step away. I put a little tension on the rope .., and then received an education.. The first thing that I learned is that, while a deer may just stand there looking at you funny while you rope it, they are spurred to action when you start pulling on that rope.

That deer exploded. The second thing I learned is that pound for pound, a deer is a lot stronger than a cow or a colt. A cow or a colt in that weight range I could fight down with a rope and with some dignity. A deer-- no Chance. That thing ran and bucked and twisted and pulled. There was no controlling it and certainly no getting close to it. As it jerked me off my feet and started dragging me across the ground, it occurred to me that having a deer on a rope was not nearly as good an idea as I had originally imagined.. The only upside is that they do not have as much stamina as many other animals.

A brief 10 minutes later, it was tired and not nearly as quick to jerk me off my feet and drag me when I managed to get up. It took me a few minutes to realize this, since I was mostly blinded by the blood flowing out of the big gash in my head. At that point, I had lost my taste for corn-fed venison. I just wanted to get that devil creature off the end of that rope.

I figured if I just let it go with the rope hanging around its neck, it would likely die slow and painfully somewhere. At the time, there was no love at all between me and that deer. At that moment, I hated the thing, and I would venture a guess that the feeling was mutual.

Despite the gash in my head and the several large knots where I had cleverly arrested the deer's momentum by bracing my head against various large rocks as it dragged me across the ground, I could still think clearly enough to recognize that there was a small chance that I shared some tiny amount of responsibility for the situation we were in. I didn't want the deer to have to suffer a slow death, so I managed to get it lined back up in between my truck and the feeder - a little trap I had set before hand...kind of like a squeeze chute. I got it to back in there and I started moving up so I could get my rope back.

Did you know that deer bite?

They do! I never in a million years would have thought that a deer would bite somebody, so I was very surprised when ..... I reached up there to grab that rope and the deer grabbed hold of my wrist. Now, when a deer bites you, it is not like being bit by a horse where they just bite you and slide off to then let go. A deer bites you and shakes its head--almost like a pit bull. They bite HARD and it hurts.
The proper thing to do when a deer bites you is probably to freeze and draw back slowly. I tried screaming and shaking instead. My method was ineffective.

It seems like the deer was biting and shaking for several minutes, but it was likely only several seconds. I, being smarter than a deer (though you may be questioning that claim by now), tricked it. While I kept it busy tearing the tendons out of my right arm, I reached up with my left hand and pulled that rope loose.

That was when I got my final lesson in deer behavior for the day.

Deer will strike at you with their front feet. They rear right up on their back feet and strike right about head and shoulder level, and their hooves are surprisingly sharp... I learned a long time ago that, when an animal -like a horse --strikes at you with their hooves and you can't get away easily, the best thing to do is try to make a loud noise and make an aggressive move towards the animal. This will usually cause them to back down a bit so you can escape.

This was not a horse. This was a deer, so obviously, such trickery would not work. In the course of a millisecond, I devised a different strategy. I screamed like a woman and tried to turn and run. The reason I had always been told NOT to try to turn and run from a horse that paws at you is that there is a good chance that it will hit you in the back of the head. Deer may not be so different from horses after all, besides being twice as strong and 3 times as evil, because the second I turned to run, it hit me right in the back of the head and knocked me down.

Now, when a deer paws at you and knocks you down, it does not immediately leave. I suspect it does not recognize that the danger has passed.. What they do instead is paw your back and jump up and down on you while you are laying there crying like a little girl and covering your head.

I finally managed to crawl under the truck and the deer went away. So now I know why when people go deer hunting they bring a rifle with a scope......to sort of even the odds!!

All these events are true... An Educated Farmer

Here's a story I found a few years ago that made me laugh like that. Enjoy.

Neighborhood Hazard (Or: Why the Cops Won't Patrol Brice Street)

I never dreamed slowly cruising through a residential neighborhood could be so incredibly dangerous!

Studies have shown that motorcycling requires more decisions per second, and more sheer data processing than nearly any other common activity or sport. The reactions and accurate decision making abilities needed have been likened to the reactions of fighter pilots! The consequences of bad decisions or poor situational awareness are pretty much the same for both groups too.

Occasionally, as a rider I have caught myself starting to make bad or late decisions while riding. In flight training, my instructors called this being “behind the power curve”. It is a mark of experience that when this begins to happen, the rider recognizes the situation, and more importantly, does something about it. A short break, a meal, or even a gas stop can set things right again as it gives the brain a chance to catch up.

Good, accurate, and timely decisions are essential when riding a motorcycle…at least if you want to remain among the living. In short, the brain needs to keep up with the machine.

I had been banging around the roads of east Texas and as I headed back into Dallas, found myself in very heavy, high-speed traffic on the freeways. Normally, this is not a problem, I commute in these conditions daily, but suddenly I was nearly run down by a cage that decided it needed my lane more than I did. This is not normally a big deal either, as it happens around here often, but usually I can accurately predict which drivers are not paying attention and avoid them before we are even close. This one I missed seeing until it was nearly too late, and as I took evasive action I nearly broadsided another car that I was not even aware was there!

Two bad decisions and insufficient situational awareness…all within seconds. I was behind the power curve. Time to get off the freeway.

I hit the next exit, and as I was in an area I knew pretty well, headed through a few big residential neighborhoods as a new route home. As I turned onto the nearly empty streets I opened the visor on my full-face helmet to help get some air. I figured some slow riding through the quiet surface streets would give me time to relax, think, and regain that “edge” so frequently required when riding.

Little did I suspect…

As I passed an oncoming car, a brown furry missile shot out from under it and tumbled to a stop immediately in front of me. It was a squirrel, and must have been trying to run across the road when it encountered the car. I really was not going very fast, but there was no time to brake or avoid it—it was that close.

I hate to run over animals…and I really hate it on a motorcycle, but a squirrel should pose no danger to me. I barely had time to brace for the impact.

Animal lovers, never fear. Squirrels can take care of themselves!

Inches before impact, the squirrel flipped to his feet. He was standing on his hind legs and facing the oncoming Valkyrie with steadfast resolve in his little beady eyes. His mouth opened, and at the last possible second, he screamed and leapt! I am pretty sure the scream was squirrel for, “Banzai!” or maybe, “Die you gravy-sucking, heathen scum!” as the leap was spectacular and he flew over the windshield and impacted me squarely in the chest.

Instantly he set upon me. If I did not know better I would have sworn he brought twenty of his little buddies along for the attack. Snarling, hissing, and tearing at my clothes, he was a frenzy of activity. As I was dressed only in a light t-shirt, summer riding gloves, and jeans this was a bit of a cause for concern. This furry little tornado was doing some damage!

Picture a large man on a huge black and chrome cruiser, dressed in jeans, a t-shirt, and leather gloves puttering maybe 25mph down a quiet residential street…and in the fight of his life with a squirrel. And losing.

I grabbed for him with my left hand and managed to snag his tail. With all my strength I flung the evil rodent off the left of the bike, almost running into the right curb as I recoiled from the throw.

That should have done it. The matter should have ended right there. It really should have. The squirrel could have sailed into one of the pristinely kept yards and gone on about his business, and I could have headed home. No one would have been the wiser.

But this was no ordinary squirrel. This was not even an ordinary pissed-off squirrel.

This was an evil attack squirrel of death!

Somehow he caught my gloved finger with one of his little hands, and with the force of the throw swung around and with a resounding thump and an amazing impact he landed square on my back and resumed his rather anti-social and extremely distracting activities. He also managed to take my left glove with him!

The situation was not improved. Not improved at all. His attacks were continuing, and now I could not reach him.

I was startled to say the least. The combination of the force of the throw, only having one hand (the throttle hand) on the handlebars, and my jerking back unfortunately put a healthy twist through my right hand and into the throttle. A healthy twist on the throttle of a Valkyrie can only have one result. Torque. This is what the Valkyrie is made for, and she is very, very good at it.

The engine roared as the front wheel left the pavement. The squirrel screamed in anger. The Valkyrie screamed in ecstasy. I screamed in…well…I just plain screamed.

Now picture a large man on a huge black and chrome cruiser, dressed in jeans, a slightly squirrel torn t-shirt, and only one leather glove roaring at maybe 70mph and rapidly accelerating down a quiet residential street…on one wheel and with a demonic squirrel on his back. The man and the squirrel are both screaming bloody murder.

With the sudden acceleration I was forced to put my other hand back on the handlebars and try to get control of the bike. This was leaving the mutant squirrel to his own devices, but I really did not want to crash into somebody’s tree, house, or parked car. Also, I had not yet figured out how to release the throttle…my brain was just simply overloaded. I did manage to mash the back brake, but it had little affect against the massive power of the big cruiser.

About this time the squirrel decided that I was not paying sufficient attention to this very serious battle (maybe he is a Scottish attack squirrel of death), and he came around my neck and got IN my full-face helmet with me. As the faceplate closed partway and he began hissing in my face I am quite sure my screaming changed tone and intensity. It seemed to have little affect on the squirrel however.

The rpm’s on The Dragon maxed out (I was not concerned about shifting at the moment) and her front end started to drop.

Now picture the large man on the huge black and chrome cruiser, dressed in jeans, a very ragged torn t-shirt, and wearing one leather glove, roaring at probably 80mph, still on one wheel, with a large puffy squirrel’s tail sticking out his mostly closed full-face helmet. By now the screams are probably getting a little hoarse.

Finally I got the upper hand…I managed to grab his tail again, pulled him out of my helmet, and slung him to the left as hard as I could. This time it worked…sort-of. Spectacularly sort-of, so to speak.

Picture the scene. You are a cop. You and your partner have pulled off on a quiet residential street and parked with your windows down to do some paperwork.

Suddenly a large man on a huge black and chrome cruiser, dressed in jeans, a torn t-shirt flapping in the breeze, and wearing one leather glove, moving at probably 80mph on one wheel, and screaming bloody murder roars by and with all his strength throws a live squirrel grenade directly into your police car.

I heard screams. They weren't mine...

I managed to get the big motorcycle under directional control and dropped the front wheel to the ground. I then used maximum braking and skidded to a stop in a cloud of tire smoke at the stop sign at a busy cross street.

I would have returned to fess up (and to get my glove back). I really would have. Really. But for two things. First, the cops did not seem interested or the slightest bit concerned about me at the moment. One of them was on his back in the front yard of the house they had been parked in front of and was rapidly crabbing backwards away from the patrol car. The other was standing in the street and was training a riot shotgun on the police cruiser.

So the cops were not interested in me. They often insist to “let the professionals handle it” anyway. That was one thing. The other? Well, I swear I could see the squirrel, standing in the back window of the patrol car among shredded and flying pieces of foam and upholstery, and shaking his little fist at me. I think he was shooting me the finger…

That is one dangerous squirrel. And now he has a patrol car…

I took a deep breath, turned on my turn-signal, made an easy right turn, and sedately left the neighborhood.

As for my easy and slow drive home? Screw it. Faced with a choice of 80mph cars and inattentive drivers, or the evil, demonic, attack squirrel of death...I’ll take my chances with the freeway. Every time.

And I’ll buy myself a new pair of gloves.

CUAgain,
Daniel Meyer

Bunnies make really awesome pets.  The dwarf/mix varieties are a lot like cats if you really interact with them and let them out of their cages to run around.  My daughter has a little black dwarf/mix and she is really like a cat personality-wise - if she doesn't like what you're doing, you get two warnings - a little digging with the front paws, then a tug on the clothing with the teeth, and if that doesn't do it, you get a little nip first, and then a big ole bite.  Bunny teeth hurt!  She loves being held - bunnies are really, really cuddly - and she loves sitting on the top of the couch and lording it over the dog.

I came home from school in first or second grade and told my mom I learned this new word at school.

I never said it again until my twenties and by then I only say it when someone cuts me off when I drive, and I'm alone in the car. Or I stub my toe.

In fact, he did.  He was inspired by his cat, Macak, as a small child to study electricity.

This is why I'm all about dogs. I love the way they adore you. I surely don't deserve all that adoration, yet my dogs choose to heap it upon me. Who am I to deny them?

One of my chief life philosophies is that if you haven't been loved by a dog, you haven't been loved.

Ours is close to 100 lbs.. not overweight just a big dog. Gentle giant. We also have 2 English setters. Great dogs, love them like anything but the Golden i would have to say is the best all around dog and is probably the best    dog we have ever had...we Have had them all collies, mutts etc

We have had numerous house guest and at least 3-4 said they would love him and take them off out hands.. Nope not gonna happen.

The Setters are very high maintence. They need to run at least every other day for several hours to burn off energy or they get super hyper.

Hey @Freya, you know we got Winston from some people who didn't want him anymore. Well, he was being mistreated by her kids so she found him a better home. He is an older dog. Just turned nine. So look around. If you are interested in a Yorkie get on one of the Yorkie websites. I'll ask my wife about them if you are interested. They may be on Facebook. But she talks to people from all over the country about Winston. There is a Yorkie rescue place down in Utah she has been talking to. We may end up with another from there without having to pay some huge amount of money.

My apartment complex will not allow any dogs for its tenants other than seeing eye dogs. The manager really dislikes dogs. Says they poop and people don't use doggy bags.

He allows cats and fish, that's it. I can't afford to move elsewhere, rents around here are astronomical. I really don't like my apt, but if I move into a nicer one it would leave me with nothing per month for anything else,I'm on a fixed income.

I got a cute. It's not a picture, but it is about a cat. Two cats, in fact.

Our senior cat came into the kitchen from the garden while I was making a brew. Headbutting my legs, twining around, making a fuss. Got a nearly full bowl of food, so it wasn't that. He was talkative too, and he doesn't normally say much. Kept walking to the steps leading into the lounge, looking at me, then coming back and rubbing against my legs some more. He REALLY wanted me to go sit down.
So, I finish making my tea and am headed to my chair and I look out the open back door. There's a feral cat that's been hanging around sitting on the wall by the door, watching me. Said hi to him, always do, and carried on into the lounge, sat down, and my cat jumped on me and started cuddling. After a couple minutes, I could hear sounds from the kitchen - eating sounds. Soon as I looked towards the kitchen door, our Fleabag started headbutting my face - "pay attention to ME, Daddy. Ignore the kitchen."
After about five minutes, the sounds of eating stopped and I heard the cat leave (our back door is a stable door type, top part is open right now). Soon as the feral left, our cat got up, jumped off my lap and walked off.

The sly little bugger had kept me in the lounge so his friend could eat in peace.

The link to the fawn is gone. Sorry to miss it. I am enjoying watching twin fawns grow up. I first spotted a baby hidden in the tall grass along our driveway when it was hours old. That was in early June. The mother doe nursed in our front yard one day while wild turkeys were milling around. Now they are mostly with mom and I see them most days. We live in the country and the whitetail have big competition from axis deer and black buck antelope that have escaped from local game ranches and naturalized.

Border collies are the most intelligent breed. Most people are surprised to learn what the second most intelligent breed is ... except those of us who've own them. http://petrix.com/dogint/intelligence.html. Add to their intelligence the fact that they are hypoallergenic, are non-shedding, come in all sizes and colors, are good for everything from hunting to squirrel chasing to lap companion, and you can see why so many of us are willing to endure the misdirected ridicule of loving a poodle.

I know many people love poodles, but their personalities don't seem to click with me. But I know they're smart and that some people get along great with them.

Interesting. As someone who has experienced a gravitational pull toward dogs since I was old enough to get from point A to point B, I can't remember a dog I didn't click with. In the interest of full disclosure, I actually prefer the company of dogs to that of 99.5% of the people I've ever come into contact with. That is probably where the difference lies. No offense to humans. Some of my best friends have been human. But dogs... Ah, dogs. That unique combination of nobility, loyalty, transparency and silliness just speaks to me.

In light of all that, I could never have a dog that didn't follow my commands. My dogs aren't allowed to bark incessantly. Only when there's someone at the door or near the house is it allowed. They must be able to walk without a leash. Because of where I walk them, they don't have to heel, but they must come when called. Jumping up on visitors isn't allowed. They must wait for permission to take food, exit the house, step off the curb, jump in or out of the car, etc. "Sit," "stay" and "drop it" are commands they learn from the very beginning. I've actually had parents ask me to train their kids! Yes, I'm a disciplinarian, but it's served my dogs and me well.

Kind of an early take-off for the doxie-did she stick the landing? ^-^

Those corgis getting toweled off are so well-behaved. Most dog I've ever had at once is four. Now I have two and they are pretty compliant with getting paws wiped on the rare occasions it rains in my part of Texas.

Same here.

I don't know what it is, but upon reflection, I think that it might be how some poodle owners are...that they don't "raise their dogs right"...rather than the breed.  :laugh:

I hear what you're saying. I had a notion like that in my 20s when I visited an aunt who had a friend visiting with her poodles. The friend was "the stereotypical poodle owner." That can mean a lot of things but for me it meant shee-shee-pooh-pooh haircuts, painted nails (the dogs', not the lady's), and perfume. It was off-putting to me and caused me to think I didn't care for poodles. I don't remember how long before it dawned on me that it wasn't the poodles I found annoying. It was, as you said, the owner! It wasn't until years later after I rescued my first one that I understood that a poodle, when allowed to be a dog, has as much dogness as other breeds. I found myself wondering if that lady's dogs were allowed to do fun dog stuff and not just be her trophies. I sincerely hope so.

My little rescue (a miniature, about 11 lbs.) was meshuga for chasing squirrels. One day one decided to taunt her. Bad decision. He didn't know she could jump. Result: He had to scurry up the tree missing the tip of his tail.

Indulge this mama as she does a little bragging...

When people would ask me how my dogs were so well behaved, I used to tell them that I just yanked them up out of bed in the morning and smacked them around a few times. No one ever believes me. Wonder why?!  :silly:



BTW, I have wanted to tell you how much I've enjoyed the pics of your dogs and to tell you that I'm so sorry for your loss. From one dog lover to another, I truly feel your pain. (Hugs)

My buddy's Golden always gets an ice cube whenever anyone gets ice from the freezer...it's called the "Tanner Tax".

One problem with long or high-quality clips is that they can load slowly on TBR, because TBR requires GIF format, where each frame is loaded separately, not just the changes.  Sometimes I can post a link that will load faster, but you won't see the image without clicking. And I'm often shrinking the size of the pics, because large ones won't fit on some screens.

I'd appreciate some feedback.  Are the pics/vids I post the correct size, or should I make them bigger (or smaller)?

And do they load okay (i.e., fast enough)?

If your looking for a big dog with big love, I suggest Mastadors they are English Mastiff/ labrador Retriever mixes with the best of both. The Mastiff mellows out the Lab and they are basically couch potatoes, very low maintenance.  Of course I freely admit to being biased, I have had a lot of dogs but never one as empathetic as my Mastador.

Well there is a way, if you truly need and benefit from an Emotional Support Animal, my Rocky keeps me from exploding, have your doctor right you a letter stating that you need and benefit from an ESA and under the Disability Act you will have many more options including Apts. that don't normally accept pets. It's important to know the distinctions between ESA's and actually medical assistance animals where each are allowed and aren't, unfortunately there are too many people that just can't bare to be away from their babies and make it difficult for the disabled that have actual assistance animals.

Oh you are a dear, @GtHawk , I've tried that. Even had a cousin who's a lawyer do a little pro bono work for me when my cat died, about a therapy dog. No go. The problem is I'm on a fixed income, and even though my rent is a lot, if I move to a dog friendly apt, it will be at least three to four hundred more. I can't afford that. I'd have to literally move about thirty miles or more away, which personally I don't care, or into Pennsylvania but I am two miles from an elderly mom

Yup. Baby elephants are cute!

If your looking for a big dog with big love, I suggest Mastadors they are English Mastiff/ labrador Retriever mixes with the best of both. The Mastiff mellows out the Lab and they are basically couch potatoes, very low maintenance.  Of course I freely admit to being biased, I have had a lot of dogs but never one as empathetic as my Mastador.

Oh you are a dear, @GtHawk , I've tried that. Even had a cousin who's a lawyer do a little pro bono work for me when my cat died, about a therapy dog. No go. The problem is I'm on a fixed income, and even though my rent is a lot, if I move to a dog friendly apt, it will be at least three to four hundred more. I can't afford that. I'd have to literally move about thirty miles or more away, which personally I don't care, or into Pennsylvania but I am two miles from an elderly mom
I feel for you, I am in a similar situation but it is one of the pluses of living in California that there are many dog friendly rentals and establishments and we were able to find a rental in a decent area with no restrictions or monthly pet rents.

Back when I ran food there was a little kitten living on the lot that I spent months feeding and talking to to gain her trust, she looked like a Ragdoll. One day I was finally able to grab her, put her in the car and rush her home, two weeks later she gifted me with seven little imps that looked like the video, various colors of course. She was the most expensive kitty I ever had, but also devoted like a dog, even played fetch.

As cute comes with a cost sometimes: https://www.sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/  (some VERY nice pictures!!!)

Been there. They look after baby elephants who've lost their mothers (usually to poachers, not always) and the odd baby rhino. The babies are so sweet - until they stand on your foot or decide you make a good scratching post  :tongue2:

Watching them with their adopted parents - it's both funny and sweet.

More puppies

Oh my...I better stay away from this thread. I feel a huge case of puppy fever coming on, lol. The puppy breath is oozing thru my moniter.

This is the first time in my life I have been dogless. My last crew (6 big guys) all got old in the space of about 3 1/2 years and well...you know. The time leading up to that was so labor intensive I haven't jumped back in yet.  I would love  a pup, but usually get an older dog for all of the obvious reasons. Actually, I usually adopt whatever wanders on my property. So I guess when the good Lord decides what he wants me to have, I'll have it.

In the mean time, I have Crazy Cat to keep me company. She doesn't ask for much.

I hope you can get a kitty soon @Freya.

@berdie, I will after I recover from my next surgery January or February of next year. It wouldn't be fair to a kitty to be home alone for 4-6 weeks. It needs me.

I haven't had a kitty since December 31, 2013. I miss it. She's still with me, but not in a living way anymore.

They get a lot of lovin.  They came to us before they were weaned, and we fed them formula from syringes for several weeks.  They are quite sure we're really Mommy and Dadoo.  They're still a couple months from their "Snip and Chip."  Shots are all done.

A few years back a young hawk fell out of a tree it was trying to land in at the dog park I went to. I was able to scoop him up and and get outside the fence before the dogs got him, he hung around with me on my shoulder and arm for over half an hour before he decided to go, which happened to coincide with right when Fish and Game showed up with a carrier to take him. :bigsilly:

Heartwarming video shows group rescuing dog from flood waters in Texas

POSTED 10:46 PM, AUGUST 29, 2017, BY FOX59 WEB

LUMBERTON, Tx. – A video captured the moment a group worked together to rescue a dog from flood waters brought on by Hurricane Harvey.

[...]

Wise says a few teenagers attempted to cross a bridge with an ATV when they got stuck. When another boy went to push the ATV the rest of the way, the dog reportedly followed and was quickly swept away.

Wise says the collar of the dog, Bandit, got stuck on some low trees. This gave the group enough time to tie a strap around one of them and go recover the pup.

I know a man that cook armadillo
Tastes so sweet he calls it pie.

All I can say is "ick"

If it don't taste like chicken...it's not on my menu

I found a armdiillo carcus on my property not long ago. I will admit it was interesting Very prehistoric.

Heartwarming video shows group rescuing dog from flood waters in Texas

POSTED 10:46 PM, AUGUST 29, 2017, BY FOX59 WEB

LUMBERTON, Tx. – A video captured the moment a group worked together to rescue a dog from flood waters brought on by Hurricane Harvey.

[...]

Wise says a few teenagers attempted to cross a bridge with an ATV when they got stuck. When another boy went to push the ATV the rest of the way, the dog reportedly followed and was quickly swept away.

Wise says the collar of the dog, Bandit, got stuck on some low trees. This gave the group enough time to tie a strap around one of them and go recover the pup.

No dog left behind.  I am heartened when I see so many people carrying their animals out of harm's way on the news coverage.

Meh.  You think it's the delivery?  I'm thinking the follow-up was the problem.  Leprosy's a tough ground for cracking wise.
@Sanguine

I'll give it a try. What have I got to lose?


I gave a hand to the relief effort.

Maybe I should have you guys screen me. I don't want to strain myself.

Leprosy and all that water? Things could get soupy.

Sorry, y'all. I might have had high expectations of the purpose of this thread. I was using it as a place of refuge and escape from sad/bad/contentious discussions. If I overreacted, I'm sorry. I was needing a safe place to escape from all that. Forgive me as I'm operating 24/7 with tears at the ready for all that's happened over the past week. And I didn't even get much damage! So many of my fellow Texans (family, friends, strangers) did.

On the bright side, Dickinson is needing volunteers to help with the rescued animals. I have found my niche! Now I'm just waiting to hear from them to learn how I can help.

Which rules out PETA and Humane Society of the United States.  Two outfits that don't help very much.  Stay away from PETA, they don't believe in keeping pets and kill every one they can get their hands on (even if they have to steal one from your porch), and HSUS doesn't spend much of its money on shelters, it's a political action group that lobbies for a living.

I like our AZ Humane Society quite a bit, they have a no-kill shelter.

I agree with your assessment of PETA and HSUS. I used to give to them but no longer. I sent something to Best Friends to the link on the front page. They state that every bit of the donation will go to help Hurricane Harvey critters.

One thing I missed out on when I had dogs was the peanut-butter thing.  I never realized they loved it so much, so I never gave it to them.  :-(

I love the look on that little pooch's face. 

Yeah, I find a lot of things cute.  Not just puppies and kittens.  But I do love them!

Roo the one-year-old rescued Golden Retriever who never had any toys, or so much as anything to chew, grew up imprisoned, starved, and neglected. This is the first time she gets to choose her own toy at a pet shop. 

Quite a picky gal, but she knows what she wants when she sees it!

@Freya I couldn't find the dog/cat thread so I'm posting this here.

Thank you my little Jack Russell for 14 wonderful years of loyalty, playfulness, obnoxiousness, and for making the death of my father 14 years ago bearable. It broke my heart to have to take you to the vet this morning to have you put down, but watching you suffer uncontrollably in back pain, is not something I could continue to put you through.  I'm sorry I couldn't hold you as they put you to sleep, but I just couldn't bear to watch.  Please forgive me..... 

Thank you God for my dear friend.

I know the dog can't hear me....but I feel better....lol.  ^-^

Oh dear G-d

@mrpotatohead my heart goes out to you.

You little Jack Russell knew you were doing an act of kindness, a mitvah because he was in pain. He knew you loved him more than anything for his entire life and was his best friend.

All dogs go to heaven and he's at the rainbow bridge waiting for you to someday join him. This I believe.
Take care of yourself now, be kind to yourself.  It's miserable loosing a dog or a cat or a mom and dad. We are here for you and we care about you.

Well....I've started the process of looking online for dogs that don't shed.  My Jack Russell in her later years was shedding something unbelievable. 

I'm looking for a dog with these qualities.

1. Doesn't shed....or not much.
2. Is a healthy breed.
3.  Small enough to pick up if needed...20 lbs give or take.
4. Would be good to walk with at the park for exercise.
5.  That would be ok left alone during the day....and wouldn't destroy my house.  My Jack Russell tore the curtains down and blinds when I was out of town once.

Any recommendations?

I saw a Havanese in the airport a few years back that a man was bringing home for his son.  Didn't shed and was a beautiful dog.  Don't know how it would be for walking though.

Thank you all for your kindness.

I don't know much about dogs, I've always wanted one but apartments never allowed so I had cats. And fish, which aren't great pets. They made the kitties happy though

Anyway, my gut instinct is telling me to speak to your veterinarian. They know breeds and would be able to help you or offer advice.

Thank you all for your kindness.
@mrpotatohead Cocker Spaniel. My wife and I have rescued three so far and they are the most amazing dogs. The only downside is that they do grumble, and "backtalk" from time to time, and the one we have now "yells" at me if I don't get my shoes on fast enough to suit him when it is time for a walk.

@Freya I couldn't find the dog/cat thread so I'm posting this here.

Thank you my little Jack Russell for 14 wonderful years of loyalty, playfulness, obnoxiousness, and for making the death of my father 14 years ago bearable. It broke my heart to have to take you to the vet this morning to have you put down, but watching you suffer uncontrollably in back pain, is not something I could continue to put you through.  I'm sorry I couldn't hold you as they put you to sleep, but I just couldn't bear to watch.  Please forgive me..... 

Thank you God for my dear friend.

I know the dog can't hear me....but I feel better....lol.  ^-^

My heart is breaking for you. It's the worst day of a dog owner's life and one we all dread. I wish I had words of comfort, but the best I can do is to tell you that I understand the pain.
Title: Re: Thread of Cute
Post by: AllThatJazzZ on September 13, 2017, 01:35:25 am
Thank you for the kind replies.  I was truly blessed to have this little dog. 

Now to find another that doesn't SHED.   ^-^

Thank you all again......

I got one word for you ... poodle! I got my first poodle when I rescued one through an adoption agency back in the 80s. I, like you, was looking to get a dog that didn't shed, so I put the word out to various animal adoption organizations. Within a couple of days I got a call that a miniature poodle had been picked up from the mean streets of Galveston and that if I was interested, I should get down there because poodles are always in demand.

She was a mess when I first got her. She'd obviously been on the street quite a while. She was quite skinny. Her hair was matted to the skin and had to be shaved to almost bald. Of course her hair grew back, and OMG, she was gorgeous! It turned out to be a match made in heaven. She was about 11 lbs., athletic, a squirrel chaser extraordinaire (see trophy below), brilliant and gobs of fun. I had found my breed!

Since then I've become a self-appointed poodle ambassador, largely because they so frequently get unfairly dissed by so-called dog lovers. I've heard all the stereotypical arguments against them, and I have an answer for all of them.

Here are a few of their selling points:
1. They don't shed.
2. They're hypoallergenic for almost everyone who has allergies to dogs. There are a few exceptions.
3. They come in all sizes and colors.
4. They are the 2nd most intelligent breed, falling in behind border collies which are #1.
5. They don’t shed.
6. Standards are able to be trained as hunting dogs. Especially good in water.
7. They're quick learners when it comes to housebreaking (at least all mine were).
8. You do NOT have to make them wear those goofy poufy hairdos that you see in dog shows. No poodle owner I know does that, opting instead for the basic puppy cut.
9. They don't shed.
10. They’re not yappy unless you allow them to be. I’ve never allowed my dogs to bark incessantly – only when there’s a noise or someone at the door. If a dog is yappy (big or small), it’s more a statement about the owner than the dog.
11. Have I mentioned that they don't shed?

Well....I've started the process of looking online for dogs that don't shed.  My Jack Russell in her later years was shedding something unbelievable. 

I'm looking for a dog with these qualities.

1. Doesn't shed....or not much.
2. Is a healthy breed.
3.  Small enough to pick up if needed...20 lbs give or take.
4. Would be good to walk with at the park for exercise.
5.  That would be ok left alone during the day....and wouldn't destroy my house.  My Jack Russell tore the curtains down and blinds when I was out of town once.

Any recommendations?

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, again I'm saying poodles.

1. Poodles don't shed.
2.a. 12th most healthy breed https://www.certapet.com/media/30-healthiest-dog-breeds/
2.b. Or 3rd https://iheartdogs.com/the-10-healthiest-dog-breeds/
2.c. Or one of the breeds with the longest life span https://www.cesarsway.com/about-dogs/breeds/top-10-dog-breeds-that-live-the-longest 
3. A miniature poodle would probably be the best size for you.
4. I walk my dogs at "our park" (a small city park near me) five to seven times a week. Because of my own personal issues, I have never leashed trained my dogs. The only "leash" they've been tethered to is my verbal command. This situation doesn't work for everyone. Our park rarely has others there, so we usually have it all to ourselves. The dogs are free to read and respond to their pee-mail as they please, but if others come to the park, they are required to come to my side immediately upon my calling. They're not allowed to step off the curb without my permission, so they stop at every curb and wait for the signal. I've raised three generations of dogs with this method. It won't work for everyone because circumstances are different. I wouldn't take them to a busy park. Too many distractions and opportunities for other dogs to hurt them. My little park is such a jewel for us, I can't see myself ever moving away from it.
5. Frankly, I don't recommend any dog be left alone for long periods of time. I did it for years before I came to understand that dogs, as very social pack animals, need companionship. That's why I eventually opted for two dogs. Once you retire or if you have someone who works at home, then it's okay to have just one dog. If I could go back in time, I'd never have required my other dogs to be at home alone while I was at work. I didn't have the knowledge back then that I have now. That said, my poodles didn't tear up stuff when I left them alone – once they got through puppyhood, that is. During puppyhood, all bets are off!

Ohhhhh, I used to have puppies!  There is no better aroma for me than "puppy breath!"

Unfortunately, you have to be there to feed them twice daily.  If you put down food, they will eat everything that is in front of them.

Cats, on the other hand -- if you have a lot of them -- will feed themselves.  They really don't care if you leave them alone for a few days.  In fact, I do believe our eight cats and two kittens want​ us to get the heck out of here do they can do their dastardly deeds.

Dogs and cats are totally different.  I do love them both.  Still thinking about getting another Great Dane for the kitties.  They are gentle Giants and lap dogs to boot!

I had a pet white rat.  He was very, very bright.  His name was French Fry. 

Then my sister had a pet rat that had a cage outside.  Her rat built and built and built in that cage.  She found out why.  He had invited all of his friends!  She had a little rat village!  Too funny!

When We See Something Cute, Why Do We Want to Squeeze It?
The aggressive urge some people get when they see an adorable animal or baby may be connected to our emotional health.
By Liz Langley, National Geographic
PUBLISHED OCTOBER 10, 2015

At the home of cat breeder Lynn Figueroa of Junglespots, bobcat kittens get acclimated to humans and other animals before their sale. This one is six weeks old. PHOTOGRAPH BY VINCENT J. MUSI, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC CREATIVE

The first step is admitting you have a problem. A very cute problem.

“Why, when something is adorable, do we get the urge to squeeze it and squish it?” National Geographic's own Emily Tye asked Saturday’s Weird Animal Question of the Week (http://news.nationalgeographic.com/weird-wild-qotw/). “Seems dangerous, evolutionarily speaking!”

Rest assured, Emily: you’re not alone (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8EFVDq0crs).

In a 2015 study in Psychological Science (https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__pss.sagepub.com_content_26_3_259&d=AwMFaQ&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=K6mKb1GfiiCtmQYUE22zrrqd6lspUffsn2updOqUmuw&m=y3mQtddBvxPm6OmnC7E8H9SV4s6viFmlIJeuWDg0qzc&s=ZIlqGWphiA9m4W5fBp_Hu6nofzKxWJ4boYaDqGkcBr8&e=), Yale University psychologist Oriana Aragon (https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__sites.google.com_site_orianaaragon_home_cv&d=AwMFaQ&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=K6mKb1GfiiCtmQYUE22zrrqd6lspUffsn2updOqUmuw&m=y3mQtddBvxPm6OmnC7E8H9SV4s6viFmlIJeuWDg0qzc&s=WmBt2-_-yBQ0qpbrJqKZ1snYbfoGpjnaYcrMicLfMVc&e=) and team found that people who have extremely positive reactions to images of cute babies also “displayed stronger aggressive expressions,” such as wanting to pinch the babies' cheeks.

Probably because he doesn't have any...although my friend's long furred cat loves to nuzzle my head and sniff my hair.  In his case, I think he wonders how we humans can go around with hardly any fur.  And they can't understand that we clean our fur with soap and water instead of using our tongues.

Also the most frequently trafficked mammal.  :-(  Many people want to use their scales in folk medicine.

More on pangolins...


Pangolins eat ants too!
by TempUserAccount   4 hr

Ant eaters are rad and all but are they as awesome as pangolins? Maybe, maybe not. So here's an informational post about the only scaled mammal.

(https://i.imgur.com/XIkkuxN.jpg)
While there are 8 subspecies, these are 'ground pangolins' which are found in my home country of South Africa. They are wholly myrmecophagous (they only eat ants and termites) though they're pretty picky about which kinds of ants and termites they eat, preferring certain species over others.

(https://i.imgur.com/iRyXL8Z.jpg)
They vary from 3.5-7.3lb / 1.6-3.3kg so not terribly big animals. Their scales are made out of keratin (basically your hair and fingernails) and make up about 20% of their body weight. When threatened, they curl up into a ball, puff and hiss, and lash out with their tails. They also are also capable of emitting a noxious acid from anal glands similar to skunks.

(https://i.imgur.com/Zeomnqf.jpg)
They're nocturnal and can dig their own burrows but prefer to live in those abandoned by warthogs or aardvarks. They're solitary animals and only interact for reproducing. We don't really know a whole lot more about them as they've proven difficult to study in the wild.

(https://i.imgur.com/Z176VSt.jpg)
Their tongue is technically longer than their entire body due to being connected internally near their pelvis. They have no external ears so have poor hearing as well as poor vision however they have a strong sense of smell.

(https://i.imgur.com/AaFrAut.jpg)
Now the bad part. It is estimated that 100,000 are captured each year from across Africa and Asia, with most shipped to China and Vietnam where their meat is prized as a delicacy and their scales are supposed to cure everything from acne to cancer. It is estimated that pangolin scales make up 20% of the black-market trade in protected animals. It is unknown how many are left in the wild.  As a result all eight species feature on the International Union of the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Rest List of animals threatened with extinction.

I've personally never seen one as they're very rare in South Africa, with only 73 sightings in the last 20 years.

"A little background. This is my aunt's friend who works as a school secretary. This girl visits her to say hello every day. She is in a foster family who have been trying to adopt her for a few years, but ran into increasing legal problems. They got the news that the adoption miraculously went through and decided that secretary should deliver this news. :) posted with permission from them."

jackiealex  Some Mondays are better than others.
I share this with permission from the parent of this student.
This is pure testament that in a world full of turmoil and strife, there is still light and joy to be found in little everyday moments.
A dear family I know has been fighting for as long as I can remember to adopt 3 of their foster children that attend our school. It's been hard to watch them fight this emotional battle. My love has grown for this family and I have learned so much from them as they have tried to remain positive despite many set backs. Today my phone rang at my desk and it was my friend Jen telling me things FINALLY had come to an end and the courts were going to let them ADOPT the children!! She asked me if I would be sure to tell her sweet girl when she came to my desk for her daily visit. She knew she would want to know right away because she had been so worried. I don't think even I could understand myself what that moment would feel like. Our security cameras caught the moment perfectly. I cry as I type this. In 12 years at this job, this is by far my best moment ever!! To tell a little girl that she gets her family forever takes the cake. I can't even describe that hug...and thank heavens her mom doesn't mind that I kissed her a million times, and a million more after the film cuts off. A moment needed after waking up to another morning of devastating news on t.v....but a sweet reminder today that life can be and still is beautiful in spite of it all. ♥️#americanheritageofsouthjordan

I'm a country boy, so we always had indoor/outdoor cats.  Now that I'm no longer in the country and my buddies have indoor cats, it was something new for me when I care for them.  Litter boxes?!?   :wtf!:   

But I have a friend who's lost several cats in the burbs, so I can see why people keep them in.

Yes, sorry, 991. It is just so cute! Just got back from the vet. Hank, my border terrier, hurt his paw. Nothing major, thank goodness. He is afraid of the office kitten who looks like part Siamese, but she has a striped tail. She jets around the office, waiting room and in and out of the treatment room. Pouncing and just silly. Very cute.

Baby animals are the best! I saw two cottontails together in my yard this week.Then I found cottontail babies yesterday! They are fully furred with eyes open. The last nest I found did not fare well. Either the hot sun or the fire ants got the babies shortly after birth. I live in a rural area and there is plenty of habitat and I wish they would nest elsewhere. I have to patrol before I let my dogs out.

The 2nd picture is cute but this really isn't a cute story, I lost the one I originally read the other day.... but... bears by the number, black bears mostly, are living in dumps, landfills in Canada.

This is the picture that was in an article I thought at the BBC:

(https://3.img-dpreview.com/files/p/E~TS590x0~articles/3134039193/Bear_Depressing.jpeg)
https://www.dpreview.com/articles/3134039193/photo-of-the-week-a-geartbreaking-photo-of-a-bear-in-a-landfill

Quote
When I finished making the photograph, the bear turned slowly and walked down into the smoking pit, disappearing from my sight. He never came back up during the rest of my time there.

It took me a very long time to process this photograph after, and I’m still not sure how I feel about it. All I know is that it’s the only photograph I’ve ever made that has made me tear up on multiple occasions. And I’m sure still has more to teach me.

The photographer was visiting the area, saw the bears in the dump and went back a 2nd time with his camera.

Post by: Suppressed on October 13, 2017, 07:45:21 pm
New York State made Long Lake, NY (in the Adirondacks), cover its dump over and chase the bears away.  They've recently been shooting bears as "a nuisance," even though the townspeople liked having them around, and tourists would actually go to the dump to see them.

Our dog used to do something similar with lettuce.  She HATED lettuce, but would beg for it.  I think she thought it made us happy to give her stuff.  She'd act all grateful and happy for it...then surreptitiously spit it out in the corner and then come back and beg for more.   :laugh:

I recall being concerned about the future mindset of my niece, when her mother told her that "Daddy's at work" when he was in Iraq.  She'd go to the window every day to look for him returning. 

I thought, "When she gets older, she's gonna have a very scary view of what 'work' means!"

Bat That Crash-Landed On Balcony Fed Fruit After Rescue
This bat was brought back to health with some fruit after crash-landing on a balcony in Sydney, Australia.This is what uploader Meg told Storyful about Addie the grey-headed flying fox: “Addie is a juvenile Grey-Headed Flying-Fox who managed to crash-land on a balcony in a serviced apartment block and was unable to get off. She was found hanging off an air conditioner grill. Bats can’t fly out from restricted spaces unless they can get enough height to clear obstacles. She was released about a fortnight later, through our release aviary.” Credit: megabattie via Storyful

102 y/o Dancer Sees Herself on Film for the First Time
Tenfresh 16,464,418 views
Published on Apr 20, 2015

Alice Barker was a chorus line dancer during the Harlem Renaissance of the the 1930s and 40s. She danced at clubs such as The Apollo, Cotton Club, The Zanzibar Club, and on Broadway—with legends including Frank Sinatra, Gene Kelly, and Bill "Bojangles" Robinson. Although she danced in numerous movies, commercials and TV shows, she had never seen any of them, and all of her photographs and memorabilia had been lost over the years.

After years of searching we found three "Soundies" Alice appeared in and were finally able to show them to her — she had never seen herself in motion in her life!

Alice passed away peacefully on Wednesday, April 6th, 2016. She spent the last day of her life in good spirits, enjoying listening to music and having her mail read to her. Thank you to all the thousands of fans who sent in cards, flowers, and art. You truly gave her deep joy and meaning in the last years of her life!

You can learn more about Alice at the little website we've set up for her: http://www.alicebarkernotbaker.com/

All of Alice's films from this video are collected here: https://youtu.be/rpg5D0AAA2w

For more info about the dancers of the Harlem Renaissance, we recommend the lovely documentary "Been Rich All My Life" —several of the women in the film danced with Alice back in the day!

A little more about the who's who here: "We" are friends of Alice who searched for the films and made this video. I'm David Shuff, a volunteer who visits the home with my therapy dog Katie, and have known Alice for 8 years. The woman in the video is Gail Campbell, a recreation therapist (and an amazing one at that!). She never gave up on finding Alice's films, and uncovered the first piece of the puzzle that lead to us finding them — which was Alicia Thompson; a historian of black female performers who had been looking for Alice for years (her site is http://forclassicmovieloversonly.trip... and her YouTube channel is "MusicandDancing4Ever"). She told us that Alice was in films called 'soundies'.

Using that clue I found jazz historian Mark Cantor of http://jazz-on-film.com and he was able to send us three of Alice's soundies from his collection. Shortly afterwards Alicia got us a few more films.

This video was filmed on cellphones (and almost as an afterthought!) by my friends Darin Tatum and Tom Hunt.

I started the process of looking for another dog today.  I can't believe how much it costs to buy a dog.  I looked at a Havanese.....$2000.   Even for another Jack Russell....close to $1000 or more. 

Guess I'll continue to look at the adoption websites.  It's amazing when you look at the local animal shelter and the majority of the animals are pitbulls. 

Geez....I'm not buying a car!...lol.
Title: Re: Thread of Cute

@mrpotatohead

Purebreds are always costly, especially the offspring of grand champions.  You might get a purebred for less if it is classified as "pet quality" rather than "show quality."  "Pet quality" means the dog has some flaw (usually in color or physical appearance) that disqualifies the dog from being exhibited at AKC or other hoity-toity pet shows.  Nothing really wrong with the dog from a health or temperament standpoint and he or she might make a good companion.

I believe pit bulls get an undeserved bad reputation, but if you are going to adopt from a shelter that has only pit bulls, maybe you can ask if any of the dogs might be a pit bull mix.  An aquaintance just adoped a mix.   The head and face look like a pit bull, but the shelter says he is also part German Shepherd and maybe one or two terrier breeds thrown in.  The dog is sweet, gentle and loving.

I don't think it's amazing, I think it's sad that the majority of the animals are of the pitbull variety, because of indiscriminate breeding and incompetent owners almost all of those pitbulls will be euthanized. It's a terrible thing, but without knowing the history of those pitbulls it is a huge risk to adopt even though Pits can be among the most loving and loyal dogs. Everyone of my animals has been adopted and up until the last dog I never knew exactly what they were other than mutts. I know there is a great attraction to purebreds  but I have been very satisfied with all of the mutts I have saved.

Post by: Cyber Liberty on October 22, 2017, 09:57:43 pm
I like rescues quite a bit, but I'd steer clear of the pits if you don't know exactly where they came from.  Many are in the rescues because they didn't fit in with people, and the owners didn't want to have the guilt of putting them down so they went to the rescues.  Today's pits are like the German Shepherds of my youth:  Everybody back then wanted Rin Tin Tin.

Have you considered an older dog?  Many are very, very grateful to get a home, and many came from homes that had loving families who had to send their dogs to rescue for reasons out of their control.

Singing to comfort Bentley in the hospital
by EARTH Sanctuary  Published on Mar 28, 2015

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAqyPrKgiJM

Bentley is my rescued 9-month-old pot-bellied pig. On Feb 23 a seizure left him in a state of shock and he was diagnosed with bacterial meningitis,  potentially fatal.  He was given only a ten percent chance to live and yet  he survived against all odds, though the meningitis left him blind. He is still in the hospital recuperating from his most recent surgery, and once his wounds heal, we will be able to finally bring him home. Every day, Bentley teaches me to be strong and never to give up. Through all of this, he has been nothing but happy, working so hard to regain the neurological function he lost due to the brain swelling. His fight to survive and to conquer every obstacle in his path is awe-inspiring. He is so very loved, and I'm so incredibly grateful he chose me as his Mum.

To a tiny little blind pig, the hospital noises can be very scary, so on my trips to see him every day, I sing to him to comfort him and reassure him that he is loved and that everything is going to be ok. Like all pigs, Bentley is incredibly intelligent and affectionate, and responds to love just like any human child would. I miss him so much when I have to leave him there every day and I can't wait until he can finally come home.

UPDATE: Despite the insurmountable odds stacked against him, Bentley survived the meningitis and regained his eyesight. He came home from the hospital and is now a happy, healthy, perfectly normal piglet after making a complete recovery. He is loved and cherished more than anything, and we're so very grateful for all of the millions of thoughts, prayers, donations toward his medical care, and well-wishes from around the world. Who knew that a tiny little pig would touch so many hearts?

One of ours was killed as a kitten by my aging dog.  She had gone into the dog's dish, and the dog nipped at her. Even though the dog's mouth was soft, and it was just a nip, she was just a tiny kitten and didn't survive.

The other got torn apart in a fight, guts hanging out, etc...but survived after lots of care.  She grew up to be the most regal cat...so above it all...polite and could walk across a board game without disturbing a piece.

Then we got Peanut... a wonderful dumb lummox who plowed right through everything.  Later, he became known as "Dozer" for two reasons.  He loved to doze...and he took to pushing things around with his big fat head.

One of my neighbor's horse was down yesterday morning. My dog, Hank, was upset and wanted to go to her. He woofed softly. The other horse came over to try to get her up. I called my neighbor and the poor chestnut mare was suffering from tannin poisoning from acorns. She was able to get the mare up and confined to the barn. I am praying for her recovery.

We've had a bumper crop of acorns this year and I see lots of whitetail congregating under the live oaks. I guess deer can tolerate them.

This morning, Hank was looking for the mare and wanted to go to the place she'd been lying down. Hank is the dearest dog with such a big heart.

White tails love 'em!  Gives a bit of a different taste to the meat if they've been eating lots of them.  I liked the ones that preferred the apple orchard.

Update on Jazzy, the chestnut mare. She is going to be okay. She is being penned right now so she can't get at the acorns. Her feet are still tender from the tannin and my friend is working with her farrier. Hank still looks for her every morning.

That one reminds me of our dog... her previous owner apparently taught her not to get up on furniture, including the bed. Our bed is low enough however, that she can get her entire body onto the bed, except for her hind feet. She leaves those on the floor, so that technically (in her mind) she's not "up on the bed".  :laugh:

A young sheepdog lent new meaning to the phrase “bringing the sheep home” after he led a flock straight into a farmer’s home.

Rosalyn Edwards was working in her kitchen on Wednesday 25 October, when she suddenly started to hear strange noises.

When she turned around she was stunned to discover her Border collie puppy, Rocky, had proudly led nine sheep into her house.

The seven-month-old sheepdog-in-training had taken advantage of an open gate to usher the sheep through into the Edwards’ home in Devon via the back door.

The neighbor of one of my friends had a border collie.  When I'd go over to friend's house, the collie would try to "herd" me to his house.  The owner would apologize, but I thought it was hilarious.  I miss that dog.

My cat doesn't react quite that way, but...yesterday I attended a pet show where I acquired numerous dog and cat aromas.  When I got home, my cat sniffed me, gave me a look of indignation, and walked away.  Didn't see him for the rest of the night.  In the morning, I guess he forgave me and now he's sitting on the sofa next to me as I type.  A shower to wash off the offending scents probably helped.

Really good ones today- don't know which one I liked most.

My little rescue Harriet, whom I've had only four months, started screaming Tuesday morning. Went to the vet and learned her left knee cap is going in and out. Have Previcox but could not get her to take it or even eat or drink. I was sick to my stomach to see her in such pain. She finally slept a little, hiding in her crate. I left her alone because she wanted that. This morning she got up on her own, still screaming. I finally got her to eat and she now has first dose of Previcox onboard. It is not fast acting so I also gave her a little Tramadol. She is resting quietly now. I am so worried but relieved she is not in as much pain.

Pardon my ignorance, but is there something like wrapping the knee that would give it stability to strengthen, or is this something that's chronic and you just treat the pain and inflammation?

Doc didn't mention anything about that. I will ask but I think the treatment is medication for pain and inflammation. She is little so I pick her up to put her on the couch. She jumps down on her own sometimes which probably aggravated the condition she had been tolerating. I will never leave her on a piece of furniture again.

I agree with Suppressed.  It sounds like a cast or brace or wrapping to immobilize the joint would lessen the pain.

My Prissy had to have her knee put back in place and tendons cut to hold it there.  A Vet Orthopedic Specialist did it - cost $1,200.  Her knee is fine now.  If you wait too long to fix it, it will not fix well, too much damage will have been done to the "case" the knee is in.

@Victoria33 @Ghost Bear

How old was Prissy when she had the surgery? My little girl appears to be at least eight years old and the doc thinks she's been living with this for a long time and may not be a candidate. I adopted her four months ago-she's had an awful life, was probably a puppy mill mama who was tossed out on the street, got sick and lost all her hair. We was on death row in San Antonio when she was rescued by the woman I adopted her from.

She's been sleeping, but woke an hour ago, got up without screaming and ran to the door to go outside. She used both back legs to scratch so I am hoping she can be managed with meds. I will consider surgery if she doesn't recover.

Thanks to everyone on the thread for your kindness.

@Ghost Bear

Prissy was six this past July 30.  The doc said if I let it go for a year or more, arthritis would set in, and she would be crippled even after the surgery with the amount of damage and arthritis in there.  The first vet said let it go until it wouldn't go back in, then he would fix it.  He was not an orthopedic surgeon so that from him was bad advice.

A story that happened today.  I took Prissy to her groomer, a lady in her late forties or so.  She is my friend.  Her left arm had a cast on it and I asked her what happened.  She fell on a dance floor and disjointed her wrist and broke both arm bones - the ulna and radius.  She was in pain.  The cost of the surgery is $10,000 and she doesn't have insurance.  Her son sold some of his 401k to pay for it and that takes time.  That happened two weeks ago so it hasn't been fixed - she is living with broken bones in her arm.  The surgery is next week for steel pins and screws, etc..  Her income is cut down since she can't do big dogs now with only one arm able to function.  She has little money.

I put a $100 bill in my jacket to give to her when I picked up Prissy.  I didn't think to tell Bob I was doing that.  When I was getting out of the car to go in there, Bob handed me a $100 bill to give to her.  I told him I was doing that, too.

So, I go in and the groomer is sitting with the secretary.  I pulled out my $100 bill and said I was giving that to her for what she needed, don't give it to a doctor or son or anyone, it was for her.  She started crying and walked around the deck to come to me.  Then, I took out the other $100 bill and said Bob wanted her to have that.  She put her arms around me and cried heavily.

Then, she walked outside - it has been raining all day - into the rain to go talk to Bob. He told her not to catch cold adding to her problem and go back inside.

We both felt we had to help this dear woman who loves our Prissy.  She will call us after the surgery to tell us how she is. Her name is Karen - if you pray, keep her in your prayers.  Thanks.

Then, she walked outside - it has been raining all day - into the rain to go talk to Bob. He told her not to catch cold adding to her problem and go back inside.

We both felt we had to help this dear woman who loves our Prissy.  She will call us after the surgery to tell us how she is. Her name is Karen - if you pray, keep her in your prayers.  Thanks.

Bless you both, that was a very nice thing to do.

Prissy was six this past July 30.  The doc said if I let it go for a year or more, arthritis would set in, and she would be crippled even after the surgery with the amount of damage and arthritis in there.  The first vet said let it go until it wouldn't go back in, then he would fix it.  He was not an orthopedic surgeon so that from him was bad advice.

A story that happened today.  I took Prissy to her groomer, a lady in her late forties or so.  She is my friend.  Her left arm had a cast on it and I asked her what happened.  She fell on a dance floor and disjointed her wrist and broke both arm bones - the ulna and radius.  She was in pain.  The cost of the surgery is $10,000 and she doesn't have insurance.  Her son sold some of his 401k to pay for it and that takes time.  That happened two weeks ago so it hasn't been fixed - she is living with broken bones in her arm.  The surgery is next week for steel pins and screws, etc..  Her income is cut down since she can't do big dogs now with only one arm able to function.  She has little money.

I put a $100 bill in my jacket to give to her when I picked up Prissy.  I didn't think to tell Bob I was doing that.  When I was getting out of the car to go in there, Bob handed me a $100 bill to give to her.  I told him I was doing that, too.

Really good ones today- don't know which one I liked most.

My little rescue Harriet, whom I've had only four months, started screaming Tuesday morning. Went to the vet and learned her left knee cap is going in and out. Have Previcox but could not get her to take it or even eat or drink. I was sick to my stomach to see her in such pain. She finally slept a little, hiding in her crate. I left her alone because she wanted that. This morning she got up on her own, still screaming. I finally got her to eat and she now has first dose of Previcox onboard. It is not fast acting so I also gave her a little Tramadol. She is resting quietly now. I am so worried but relieved she is not in as much pain.

@austingirl, that's horrible.  I can hardly stand reading about it.  I'm so sorry for your baby.

I couldn't stand the idea of her having no money and I had some I won and she had a useless arm with broken bones and was living with the pain.  When Prissy was sick with her leg, Karen offered to come to the house to bathe her and comb her out - for free.  I would have paid her, of course, if we had to do that, but she offered that from her good heart.

If everyone acted through love with other people, this world would be different.  That is part of what my next book is about - act through love.  This world is doomed if love for others is gone.

When I was a kid, I never understood anonymous donations.  Like a typical kid, I wanted credit when I did something good!  But as an adult, I do those things all the time and the "credit" isn't the important part anymore.

My mother pays it forward often, and the other day, someone actually did the same for her -- it really made her day.   She was getting the $5.99 lunch special at a Chinese restaurant with my dad.  My dad is blind and has other medical issues, so he needs lots of help with getting the food into a bowl where he can scoop it up, etc. 

My mom noticed that the only other patron in the restaurant was looking at them a lot, and when she went to pay at the end of the meal, it turns out the other lady had paid, saying she wanted to do something nice for my mom for all of the work it takes to help my dad.

Just hearing that someone noticed and appreciated her efforts made her day even more than the cost of the meal, I think (though that part was appreciated, too)!

I told about our groomer, Karen, who broke both her left arm bones and dislocated her wrist in a fall.  She had to wait for two weeks until her son could borrow money for the surgery.  Bob and I gave her some money just for her for what she needed.  One thing she got was a new housecoat - she said her dog chewed up the other one.

The surgery was yesterday.  The surgeon said he had never seen an arm that bad from a fall and didn't know why her wrist wasn't broken, just pulled out of place.  Because it was so bad, it took FOUR hours to reconstruct her arm.  There is a metal plate and EIGHT SCREWS IN HER BONES.

He did a nerve block to numb the arm.  He gave her hydrocodone pills and said she had to take them, that when the nerve block went away, she was going to be in bad pain and told her she could not go to work for a week.

Karen is stubborn, in her 50s, doesn't like to take pills, but she promised the doc and me she would do what the doc said and take them.  When I talked to her, the nerve block was still working.

She doesn't know how long it will take to be able to use the arm but goes back to the doc on Dec. 1.  So, right now she is stuck in the house but at least she has a new housecoat to wear.  Keep Karen in your prayers; she is a lover of animals and treats Prissy like her own.  She is her own employer so she won't make any money until she can go back to work at the Vet's office.

Yikes, @Victoria33!  That wrist sounds like it stings!  Mrs. Liberty had to have that done a few years back (A trans-Fibular fracture) and she said it smarted more than the shoulder replacement she had done a couple months later.

Thanks God for folks like you, Vic.  We recently had a chance to "pay it forward" to a friend who's family got wiped out by Maria in FL.  You just can't sit back and do nothing when you see good people in real distress.

While maintaining strong caution about painkillers, she should be made aware that an extensive body of research shows that pain inhibits healing.  When doctors prescribe painkillers, it's not just for comfort.

This is true.  Advice I got from my Orthopod and Physical Therapists when I got my hips replaced.  Pain will keep the body from healing itself.  A patient is not doing oneself any favors by refusing the meds.

Life with the new Jack Russell puppy...........   geez......

Got the 12 week old female over a week ago.  This dog is twice as hyper as my last one.  When I got her the breeder said she was litter box trained.  To my amazement, she pees and poops in a litter box in her crate.  Of course when the litter box is out of the crate, she may hike a leg on the side of the litter box tub....but at least she's close...lol.  Probably averaging about 75% accuracy...lol.

The first night she howled and cried, so being the soft hearted person I am...I grabbed some pillows and slept beside her crate....which seemed to do the trick. 

This has to be the most loving dog I've been around as she wants to be held and petted constantly.  My previous Jack was VERY independent and would kind of tolerate you on her terms...lol.

To burn off energy, this new Jack will run laps in the living room.  I need to start taking her to walk at the park to lower the energy level.  That ought to be an adventure.

So far so good with the new dog....sure wouldn't want to leave her alone in my house though....not sure what would be left when I returned. 

I drop the dog off at my 87 yr. old mom's house in the afternoon for her to babysit.  This has been great for my mom, to have companionship.  The dog tends to get a 2 hr rubdown. 

So far this has been a good decision.....

How's Harriet doing?

@Suppressed

Harriet is doing well. Thanks for asking. She insists on going for her walk. I drive her and Hank down the long gravel hilly driveway and walk her on pavement. The medication sure seems to be working.

Thank you for that long scrolling post of all the babies.

I have two baby squirrels in a tree outside my window. I'd never seen one before. These were born very late in the season and are still tiny. They are furred but their tails are not bushy yet. They were taking tiny hesitant steps up and down the tree trunk. Fun to watch. I bought them some raw peanuts in the shell.

Life with the new Jack Russell puppy...........   geez......

Got the 12 week old female over a week ago.  This dog is twice as hyper as my last one.  When I got her the breeder said she was litter box trained.  To my amazement, she pees and poops in a litter box in her crate.  Of course when the litter box is out of the crate, she may hike a leg on the side of the litter box tub....but at least she's close...lol.  Probably averaging about 75% accuracy...lol.

The first night she howled and cried, so being the soft hearted person I am...I grabbed some pillows and slept beside her crate....which seemed to do the trick. 

This has to be the most loving dog I've been around as she wants to be held and petted constantly.  My previous Jack was VERY independent and would kind of tolerate you on her terms...lol.

To burn off energy, this new Jack will run laps in the living room.  I need to start taking her to walk at the park to lower the energy level.  That ought to be an adventure.

Love the drunk squirrel.

My neighbor's horses are allowed out in the pasture again. Hank was so pleased to see them today. He goes right up to the fence to see them. Harriet is intimidated. She growled the first time she saw them this summer. Now I hold her when we visit them so she feels safe. She just stares quietly.

Did you PM them?  I've found the most effective way to reach them is to click the "Report to Mods" button at the bottom of every post.  They told me it's like shining the "Batman" spotlight.  This might be one of the details that still need to be fixed from the crash.

Karen, the groomer, who broke her arm, dislocated her wrist, and has a metal plate and six screws in her arm two bones, is still not able to work; her arm is still healing.  She went to the doc yesterday and he took out stitches, and it was my YORKIE, PRISSY, who saved the day!

Karen wanted permission to groom little dogs like Prissy, so she explained how Prissy was during a groom, a nice little dog who didn't fight her.

The doc said she could groom dogs like Prissy if she wore plastic covering her left arm so no germs got to her arm, but no other type dogs, yet.  The first little dog she will groom is Prissy this coming Wednesday.  I'll add more money to her bill when I pay.

Karen said it would have been better to break her leg than her arm, at least she could groom with a broken leg.  All of you reading this, be thankful both your arms work.

Thank you and others who have posted good wishes to Karen.  verga, Freya, she was dancing when she fell and did that much damage to her arm that it took four hours of surgery to put it back together.  Since some time has past, I think I will ask her what kind of dance was she doing to break her arm so badly.  It surely wasn't a Waltz.

The world sucks.  I have infected sinuses, my eyes are weak, had that six days, and I have computer work I want to do, but staying in bed feels better, then, got up yesterday and I have laryngitis, can't talk.  I need to just be sick until I get well.  How do you turn off the world, and just be sick?

Men in congress dropping like flies, quitting, due to sex stuff.  Every thread on this website is bad news, one way or another. I saw a little girl on an ad and she was in a car and had a snow ball and shook it and everything changed, snow came down, people outside started dancing, how pretty and swell that was.  I need a snow ball like that right now to make me well.  Crap, sickness is the pits.  And, I just blew my nose, and blood came out my right nostril.  Crap.

@mountaineer

For me, it was roller skating.

My college friend was going to set me up on a date with a gorgeous friend of hers from high school (who attended another college).  They'd met by working together at the roller-skating rink, and I couldn't skate.  So the plan was for Brenda to take me back to her hometown and teach me to skate on the weekends, and then I could meet Alicia over Thanksgiving.

Well, Alicia decided to go home for a weekend early, and go skating.  She walked in right as I was being Bambi on ice.    8888huh

On the positive side, she then took over the lesson, skating behind me and wrapping her arms around me and holding me up.  MMMmmm... she seemed to enjoy it, and I know I did!

On the negative side, I was too shy at the time and mortified that she'd "caught" me in the lesson; I lost my nerve to pursue anything.   22222frying pan

Yeah, I kicked myself a lot down the road.

Cat curled up in neighborhood Nativity scene delights internet



A New York City neighborhood cat got into the holiday spirit.

The feline was squatting in Jesus' manger in a Nativity scene last Sunday, and photographer Brooke Goldman noticed it while walking her boyfriend to a subway station in the borough of Queens.

"I saw him there, and I just had to take a photo," said Goldman, who has been shooting photos professionally for six years. "It was, like, the funniest moment."

Goldman, 23, added that she was happy to catch the moment with the cat because she feared she had scared him.

Hold on to your horses, snowy owls are being seen in the US and perhaps as far south as Oklahoma.  I was by a lake one winter night, I could see it was an owl; now I think considering its shape and size, it may have been a snowy owl. I read of a rescue of a snowy owl recently, so I went to look this up.

Project SNOWstorm aims to track snowy owls in Wisconsin this winter

Big and beautiful, snowy owls are the definition of a charismatic wildlife species.

The birds are the heaviest owl (from 3 to 6 pounds) in North America and have 5-foot wingspans. In addition, they possess bright white plumage, often accented with dark barring, and large yellow eyes.

https://www.jsonline.com/story/sports/outdoors/2017/12/16/project-snowstorm-aims-track-snowy-owls-wisconsin-winter/949516001/ (https://www.jsonline.com/story/sports/outdoors/2017/12/16/project-snowstorm-aims-track-snowy-owls-wisconsin-winter/949516001/)

I would ride the mountain bike a lot of places, deer run but owls and eagles often do not fly away from one until one is really close, 6 feet I'd say.

The owl in the above picture apparently has some sort of device on him. I'm sure, a lot of people would think it'd be a great job, having some sort of wildlife job, ranger, etc.

My brother and SIL have 5 cats, 3 of whom are kittens acquired a few months ago.  I was on the phone with my brother the other day, and the whole time I could hear him yelling at one or the other of the kittens.  Brother and wife were putting up Christmas decorations and the kittens were getting under foot and into everything.  Finally,  my brother said "I gotta go get the vacuum." One of the kittens had knocked something over, making a mess, and my brother had to sweep it up. 

Really need to lock the kitties in a room until the decorating is done. And even after decorating is done, you have to keep an eye on them 24/7.

30 years ago our neighbors convinced my wife that we needed two kittens that were the product of an incesetuous usion between a mother and son. The first year they were fine. The second year was a nightmare. We should have had a hint when they managed to pull the antique lamp and tatted tablecloth off the round end table breaking it into about a hundred pieces. No tree for the next 6 years.

I don't know if I'd blame that in the incest.  Some cats have the "Kitten" gene permanently turned on.  I had one take two years to calm down, I have two 7-month-olds chasing each other around the house right now.  Every morning at this time.

@Cyber Liberty These cats were severely drain bamaged. Those were two tiny examples of the "stuff" they got into. The black one would just randomly Hiss and snarl at people for no reason, and on more than one occasion the orange on would just run into walls.

I was thinking they were praying.  My cat sometimes "kneels" over the armrest on the sofa and looks like he's praying. 

Ok, somebody haul me away.  I've lost my mind.

Has anyone used a shock collar on dog? 

My JRT doesn't seem to like my built in oven and seems to want to attack it...lol.  When I open the door to it, she goes ballistic. I bought one of those shock collars that goes off if the animal comes within 3-12' of what you choose.  It puts out a tone with a very very mild static shock.  I was surprised how well it works.  I only had to put it on her for maybe 5 minutes and then she had no desire to go in the kitchen.  My mom is 87 and I can't risk her falling over the dog in the kitchen...that would be horrible.

I'm thinking about using it again at the front door...to keep her from trying to get out.  If she bolted...I'd never catch her.

@mrpotatohead

I know that some dogs react to an invisible fence by rushing it to get through the zap fast.  Be careful that doesn't happen for the front door.

Also, does your dog have long fur?  That can interfere with the connection.   Also, be sure the contacts don't wear down.  My friend's lab had worn down the contacts on his collar and it was no longer effective.

Best of luck -- I hope it works well!

What is he again, @BassWrangler?

Australian Labradoodle, which is basically an attempt to create a stable breed rather than just randomly breeding a poodle and a lab. They are known for their allergy friendly coat and a high percentage that can pass the service dog training.

I selected this breed because my sis has labradoodles, which I adore, and I wanted a dog that hadn’t been inbred so much that it has genetic issues. Will probably get a second dog that is a rescue/mutt. But since I have literally been waiting my entire life to have a dog, I thought we would go this route for our first.

the best and worst things about puppies is thy got from zero to 60 in 3 seconds flat. They will spend the next 10 minutes at 60, and then go back down to zero in 3 seconds flat. Twenty years ago we got a pup to keep the older dog company. He kept giving us the "Why did you do this to me,what did I do wrong" look. Six months later they were inseparable, and I almost felt sorry for anyone that tried to bother her.

This is a perfect description. It is cold and wet here right now, and when I take him outside to go to the bathroom, this seems to trigger that transition from zero to sixty. So at 3am, I take him out of the crate and go stand in the cold drizzle, and then we come back in and he wants to play.

LOL, my wife says it is like having a baby. I said “I don’t remember standing outside in the rain at 3am with our babies. It is more like being a volunteer firefighter.”

Yes, you have to know your limitations.  I had 2 adult cats at one point and even they were too much. 

Now my brother and his wife have 5 cats, including 3 kittens they acquired last year.  They've always had multiple cats, but for the last several years, all their cats were adults.  They hadn't had kittens for quite some time, so they aren't accustomed to 3 terrors running around the house and getting into everything. 

One night  a few days before Christmas, I was talking to my brother on the phone.  The whole time he kept interrupting to yell at one or more of the kittens.  Brother and wife were putting up decorations, and you know kittens can't resist playing with the ornaments and what have you.  Finally, my brother said, "I've got to go now.  Tia (the female kitten) just knocked something over and I have to get the vacuum cleaner to sweep it up."  Just can't take your eyes off them for even a second.  Like children, they can be a handful.

Can you believe this is my first? My parents briefly had a yellow lab when I was a kid, but my dad did basically everything wrong w.r.t. training it, and got the expected results, and then they gave it away. Even as a little kid it seemed like a blink of an eye before he was gone, so I am guessing we just had it for a month or so. Wanted one ever since then, but various life events intervened, so just getting one now. My wife has had dogs before, though.

We put him in a small t-shirt (vet’s suggestion). Was supposed to just be at night, but we’ve been leaving it on during the day. Between that and watching him closely, it seems to be working. The shirt says “For Love of Balls”, which I find highly ironic given one of his incisions is from a neuter.

You are both such deers. @Sanguine  @Ghost Bear

There was a herd of those critters out and about in my farm boy days--around 300--in that bunch.

If I use the word pronghorn around my wife she thinks it is an invite.

You're a bit of a deer yourself.  An odd one, but a deer nonetheless.

Yup, pronghorns.

And, interestingly, their closest living relative is actually the giraffe, not deer.  They aren't true antelopes.

In the Texas Hill Country we have herds of Axis deer and Blackbuck Antelope who have escaped from the hunting ranches. I've heard that Texas has a bigger population of these critters than India, their native habitat.

The herd comes through every once in a while, sometimes right past the front porch but usually down on a ledge. I think they are visiting the water guzzler we have for the critters. Saw the herd this afternoon along with a big flock of about 30 wild turkeys.

Technically, though the nutria is called the "beaver rat," it's in a family different from rats.  Both are rodents, though (Order Rodentia).

I hate nutria, too.  They're an invasive species.

Post by: Slip18 on February 06, 2018, 01:44:28 pm

 By: Auslan Cramb, Scottish Correspondent
6 February 2018 • 11:08am

Armed police were sent to an Aberdeenshire farm after a farmer checking his livestock thought he spotted a tiger in his cow shed.

Bruce Grubb, 24, called the police, fearing the predator would attack his pregnant cows, but became suspicious when it failed to move during a 45-minute stand-off.

After driving towards it in his truck he realised he was looking at a large cuddly toy.

I don't know about such things...were the adoptions at too young an age?

I don't think so.  Same litter mates.  One person adopted one, then backed out.  The other person wanted both of them, but could not get one because of the other person.

So when the other person backed out, the person who initially wanted both, got the second one.

We have experience with litter mates.  We have two, three and two.  It would be difficult to separate them.  I found the last two in my garedening shed when they were about two to three days old.  Momma kitty did not like that.

So on her third litter, I let her be a momma. Too cute.  Good momma, but the Floofy Jelly Beans chased her out of the yard.  I guess that is not uncommon.

I really know nothing about cat psychology.  Dogs try to please you; cats don't give a hoot.  We just happen to have ten very healthy and active kitties.

That's not real Chinese. :)

There's a Chinese restaurant across the street from me, it looks like a dive inside but it's really good and inexpensive and no msg. It's take out only, with two tables. But for 6.99 you get a meal plus rice, egg roll, and fortune cookie. (Chicken, pork, tofu, or beef. Shrimp is more expensive)

My brother was at one time a production manager for Hunter Sprinklers, he would go to China once or twice a year to visit the facilities that made the parts. He would talk about how Peking Duck was always part of the business dinners, he said they would bring out a beautiful roast duck for approval then take it back to the kitchen, moments later they returned with bowls of chopped up duck. Yeah sure it was magnificent roast duck they showed, that was probably the display duck shown to every customer that ordered Peking Duck, what they actually got :shrug:  (http://i39.tinypic.com/2hf2z49.jpg)

ITHACA, N.Y. -- Several couples renewed their vows at a McDonald's in Ithaca Tuesday.

Couples would go through the drive-thru and let them know they wanted to renew their vows. They then drove to the next window where newly-ordained DJ Chris Allinger made it possible.

Cats are cats, from the majestic tiger to the house cat. 

By the way, while in Florida, a friend and I visited the Lowry Park Zoo in Tampa.  One of the best zoos in the US, IMHO. 

Also, if you are into the big cats, tour the Big Cat Rescue, also in Tampa.  As the name says, these big cats are rescues, usually from dopes who acquire them as pets and then can't or won't take care of them.

Thank you for the info on Big Cat Rescue.  Now I'm red faced.  Didn't know.  Well, at least I didn't give them a donation.  I was tempted to.

When I was there, the Rescue was encouraging people to contact Florida legislators to support a bill ending breeding and sale of exotic animals.  Since I'm not a Florida resident, I didn't become involved. 

For the record, the animals I saw at BCR ;looked healthy and well cared for.  So I don't know.  Interesting story about the founder's husband disappearing under mysterious circumstances.  I love a mystery.

No need to be red-faced... I was pushing them for a long time before hearing people complaining.  They are good with their appearance.

zefrank has a whole series of "True Facts" videos on animals.   I love them.

I warn you, though, before watching the duck one, if you don't know a lot about them!

Now I'm a fan, too. So droll!

Woman finds her corgi comforting grieving stranger in the airport

Palm was still surprised, and deeply moved, by something Cora did when the two were recently flying from their home in Idaho to Alaska to visit Palm's mother.

On a layover at the Seattle airport, Cora approached a man who was sitting by himself near their gate.

"Before I could even call her she was already at his feet being loved on. I asked him if she was bothering him," Palm said. "And with a somber face and watery eyes he said, 'No, no. I lost my dog last night.'"

Quote
Studying the effects of weightlessness on a living mammal at 25,000′; ca. 1958

From The Times Magazine, a “Portrait of the Ideal Space Man,” if not the ideal space cat, from February 1958. As experts were contemplating the medical specifics of what weightlessness in space would do to a living, breathing human being, an unlucky kitten was volunteered as a stand-in, floating from the hand of Capt. Druey P. Parks inside an F-94C jet at 25,000 feet. The article, by Donald G. Cooley, characterized the cat’s reaction as “bewilderment.”

You know, you would think that someone in the design group might have done a failure analysis and figured that out, or even pointed out how easy it would be for the driver, while fumbling around to adjust the vent or tune the radio, to accidentally hit one of those buttons and cause all kinds of havoc.  :shrug:

Here's a very moving story, the cold killed this homeless man in Chicago who took care of a number of alley cats, now, the neighbors are helping out.
Quote

A homeless man died, leaving behind a pack of alley cats. His neighbors came to the rescue.

The Washington Post Allison Klein 21 hrs ago

Antonio Garcia

For maybe a decade, Antonio Garcia lived in an alley in a gentrified Chicago neighborhood. He made a shelter from wood scraps and mattresses, and he had as his companions dozens of feral cats, which he considered family.

He befriended a few people in the upscale community, Fulton River District, some of whom took to stopping by with food for him and the cats. Nearby restaurant owners liked that Garcia kept away any riffraff, and they liked that the cats scared off rats.

Garcia, 65, died of hypothermia in January after a particularly cold spell. A few of his neighborhood friends tearfully cleaned up his alley, but there was the problem of the cats — dozens of them, hungry and skittish now that their protector was gone.

Loyal dog refuses to leave hospital where owner died four months ago

The Independent
Lucy Pasha-Robinson

A pet dog whose owner was fatally stabbed has made a home for himself in front of the hospital where the man died.

The animal, who has no name, has been waiting in front of the Santa Casa de Novo Horizonte hospital in Brazil for four months, according to local media reports.

The dog first arrived at the unit after chasing after the ambulance that was transporting his owner, a 59-year-old homeless man, to hospital in October.

The man, who had been involved in a street fight, died from his injuries but two months on, the dog continued to wait for him in front of the hospital, Brazil's O Globo newspaper reported.

I just love French bulldogs.  Last year at my doctor's office, a woman came in with her pup.  This little guy went up to me all excited and happy, as if I was his long-lost owner.  His real owner expressed surprise as, according to her, French bulldogs are only close to just one owner.  I don't know if that's true, but it wasn't with this bulldog.  Just too cute.

Glad to hear you say that. As much as I adore my dog(s)*, there are times when I want to be unpestered. Then I start to feel guilty. Dogs generally tend to require more hands-on than cats, and I understood that when I signed up to be a dog mama. Nevertheless, I do need a little block of time here and there to meet my human needs.

What a cutie!

Thank you for commenting on my avatar. To my everlasting sadness, all three of them are now angels. Bobbi, on the left, died last June at the age of 14 from liver cancer; she declined in only a month. Rocky died at the age of 16 nineteen months ago. He was blind but got around well and was alpha to the end. His brave heart finally succumbed to congestive heart failure. Lillian Gish, on the right, died in October of 2008, probably PE. She was about 14 and waited for me to come home that day and I dashed to the vet. Nothing to be done. All three were rescues.

I have Hank, a one-eyed Border terrier and Harriet, a little terrier right now. I can't live without dogs even if they break you heart.

@AllThatJazzZ
Sorry for your loss. When I lost Rocky, I didn't get another dog because I thought Bobbi would live a lot longer. She died less than a year later, leaving Hank alone. He wouldn't eat and was so anxious if I left the house. I adopted Harriet a few days later because he needed someone. She was horribly abused and found abandoned in San Antonio, with no fur, having been used as a breeder. God bless her rescuer who took her out of the pound. It took six months before she truly trusted me. She has bad knees, few teeth, bald spots on her legs, but I am going to give her the best life.

It so hurts to lose a fur baby.  That's how it is, though.  Unless you have a Parrot or a Galapagos Turtle for a pet you will outlive them.

Meanwhile, we really need a break from the brood.  "Kitty, may I take a shower now?"  "Sure you can!  I'll just crap or vomit on the rug over here and don't worry, it will be here for you when you get back!  Watch your step..."

You will notice on the image of the "Ratscals" that the draperies are down, nothing on the mantle nor bookcase.  If you do have a couple of active teenage kitties, you will understand.  If not, it is because they pulled the drapes off by climbing up them; things on the mantle and top of the bookcase were being tossed to the floor.

They were just having fun as did the three Cow cats before them.  Five kitties in three years...

Okie-dokie for decorating anything.

But we love all ten of our critters...

So sorry about your loss!  It is so tough losing a pet.

We have had both dogs and cats.  Dogs do "bad" things, then hide because they know they have done bad things.

Now, cats, on the other hand, do "bad" things, and they can't wait to show you what they have done.

Just a small difference.  Minor details, I guess.

Getting yet another litter from the same momma and poppa in a week or so.  Want a few?

Gotta sneak them from momma at under a week old, otherwise they get feral.

I have recently made a maternity section in her favorite gardening shed where she has delivered three litters already.  Two of her babies are Chewy and Hobbes.   But I can't catch her.  Poppa keeps all males out of the backyard.  He is very territorial.

So, I guess, they are pedigreed cats.  I would call them "Liberty Cats."  @Cyber Liberty

When Chewy and Hobbes were only a day or two old, I had to feed them baby kitty milk through a syringe. I had to keep a lot of wet washcloths close by to clean them.  Little piglets.  That little bathtub would have been a heck of a lot easier.  That milk was sticky.  Got it in my hair, yuck!

That might be why they like to sleep on my hair.  Spot, a Cow cat, likes to suck on my hair. I had to give her milk through a syringe, too.  Go figure.

I have lots of images of them, too. About a thousand images.  Every new thing they did was photographed.

Crazy critters are kitties.  Crazy.  Three are sitting on or near me right now.

I laugh at people that wash their dogs in a sink................. not really, there are times I envy them because they have it so easy.
I need a little bit larger container to fit my puppy in.

I wash my dog in the shower. Our shower has one of those detachable nozzles, so it's really easy. I just open the shower door and he walks right in. Put on some doggie shampoo, rinse him off, open the door and he dives headfirst into the towel I laid out for him while I finish my own shower. Hardest part is finishing the drying while he is trying to eat the towel.

The drying off with the towel is my dogs favorite part, if he had his way I would keep rubbing him even after he was dry.

No kidding I think our dogs love going out in the rain just for the post walk rub down. My wife puts the towels next to the heater vent when I take them out and buy the time we get back they are nice and warm. The dogs run tot he vent to be first in line for the rub down.

That baby deer reminds me to start looking in the tall grass for babies. Last year, I saw several along my long driveway. Mama conceals them in the shade and goes out to feed.
People are posting photos of babies already on our local FB page. No mowing allowed right now.

Canine paralysis is a daily affliction at our house. How a twelve pound dog can feel that a 50# sack of potatoes is amazing.

My canine paralysis is due more to the fact that I'm unwilling to move as opposed to unable to. It's always been the policy around here that if the dog falls asleep on you, everyone else has to wait on you (get you water, bring your glasses, etc.). The rule is that we don't disturb the dog unless we absolutely have to. If I could speak dog, I'd explain to them how good they have it!

Yes.  Their brains became so large and their bodies atrophied, so they needed the metal casing to support the brain.  We've seen inside the Dalek casings on occasion, and there's a horribly mutated creature within (though appearance has differed at times).

Thank you.  A time to remember unimaginable sacrifices made to keep us and others free.  They gave me that gift, andm for that, I am happy.

I looked at it again and you may be right about the dog being blind. He appears not to be looking at the cat. Maybe the cat was apologizing for messing with him.

Dogs steal mail carrier's lunch, then their apology note goes viral



For decades, students across the country have offered up the classic excuse, "Dog ate my homework." But now, a letter carrier in Smithfield, Virginia is saying, "Dogs ate my lunch." And the story that unfolded has amused thousands of people on social media.

In June, Carol Jordan, who owns a five-acre farm in Isle of Wight, Virginia, stopped at her mailbox and discovered a handwritten note there from the woman who delivers her family's mail.

"Our immediate thought was, 'What did the boys do now?'" she told CBS News.

"The boys" in question are Bear and Bull, Jordan's 6-year-old black Labrador/mastiffs, which she and her husband rescued from a high kill shelter in North Carolina as puppies. Bear and Bull are brothers from the same litter, though Jordan notes that Bull -- the smaller one with the white spot on his chest -- is the ringleader when it comes to getting into trouble.

In this instance, however, it turns out the boys actually weren't in trouble. On the contrary, the neighborhood's friendly letter carrier actually left the family a note out of concern for the dogs' well-being.

...

The whole cute story can be found here:

Bear and Bull are brothers from the same litter, though Jordan notes that Bull -- the smaller one with the white spot on his chest -- is the ringleader when it comes to getting into trouble.

In this instance, however, it turns out the boys actually weren't in trouble. On the contrary, the neighborhood's friendly letter carrier actually left the family a note out of concern for the dogs' well-being.

They are a wonderful mix, of course since there is no real standard any Mastiff bred with any Labrador results in a Mastador. I adopted mine, he was one of seven that were the result of inadequate fencing and lust. One neighbors English Mastiff went into heat and the other neighbors American Field Lab answered the call. My dog is an old man now, he just turned ten and has been a pretty consistent 150# for the last four or five years. Mastadors are gentle, easy going, faithfull, and couch potatoes. They look like over sized Labrador Retrievers.

Oh that picture of him on the swing with me? He did that on his own, he just lined up beside the swing and lay down, it was one of his favorite places.

Thank you, he's been my best friend for ten years, I got him after I lost a dog and felt, I don't know like something was missing. I did a search of the local rescues and saw him and was just drawn to him, after a visit to the local shelter was a wash we just made it to the rescues event where he would be. They had all the dogs at the event loose in a fenced area and we went in and sat down, here where it gets a bit weird, one of the pups(pup is a joke he was 55 pounds at 5 months) came up to me and rested his head on my arm looking at me, he was the same dog I was drawn to on their website, had the same scratch on his nose. Oddly, we decided to adopt him even though the fee was a burden at the time. Sometimes you just have to go with Fate. If I believed in reincarnation I would swear he was a kitten I rescued from a parking lot where I worked, she was devoted to me and was very dog like, would play fetch as long as I would throw the toy and always wanted to sit with me, she lived for eighteen years.

Thank you for setting me straight. 

I have no experience with Mastadors, but I did meet a mastiff once.  Friend  and I were walking through a dog friendly park near her home.  We two old ladies had stopped to rest and were sitting on a bench when we were approached by a mastiff and his owner.  My friend saw the dog first at a bit of a distance and since her eyes are as bad as mine, she thought it was a bear.  I said I doubt it -- never saw a bear walking through a park on a leash with a human.  LOL

Anyway, dog and owner came close and the dog wanted to come over to see us.  So the owner let him.  The owner advised us that despite the mastiff's intimidating size, he was actually a gentle giant.  The dog came over to me and put his head on my lap (the head felt like a ton of bricks).  He just wanted some pets and a few ear scratches, so I obliged.  Really sweet dog.

@Applewood
I can see how you would think that was directed at you, but it wasn't, I was attempting humor (where I usually fall flat) as if I was speaking  to the dogs owner who identified them as Labrador/Mastiffs. Shortly after I got mine I jokingly referred to him as a Mastador when people asked what he was. I was really surprised when I did a web search and discovered that they are an identified mix and have a website as Mastadors.

It's all in the training, I got the pulling all out of my dogs system when he was very young, I had a bad back then and after two surgeries it's worse. The biggest problem I have with him now is not the pulling, it's the sudden stops when without notice he turns into a 150# anchor to smell something.

We had two lab mixes we had to rehome. The new owners called us to let us know that one of them keeps bringing home "offerings". These have included rabbits, squirrels, mice, etc... including one goose. She said she could not decide if Jake was bringing offerings of sacrifice tot he benevolent house gods, or just felt sorry for them and was bringing them food.

Harriet is in the hospital tonight, getting IV fluids. I've had her only a year. She's always had an odd health issue- every five days her tummy would gurgle and she's refuse to eat in the morning. It happened almost like clockwork, but she always bounced and felt better and ate in the evening. This weekend she vomited and didn't bounce.

I took her in yesterday for bloodwork and she got three injections, ABX, antinauseal, and pain med. She had a quiet night. This morning she took some water and I gave her three tiny pieces of Purina OM dry food. She threw it up so I took her in and I'm missing her like crazy. Very hard to accept she won't be here tonight. She is scheduled for a sonogram in the morning.

Hank seems to be missing her, too.

The sonogram was CLEAR. Wonderful news. The bad news is we have no diagnosis. Harriet is staying another day and they will start water and feeding under controlled conditions. Of course I wanted to bring her home, but this is the best for her. I took Hank for moral support. I was even  mature enough to leave without seeing her because she'd be so upset when I left again. She should be home tomorrow.

@Applewood
Not at this time. I'm starting to think it was the Bravecto three month flea pill she got last week that caused the vomiting because there isn't another explanation. She didn't vomit during her earlier episodes of "bad tummy." Her diet will be very strict and I am hoping for the best.

She kept food and water down at the vet today and I'll bring her home tomorrow.

Not at this time. I'm starting to think it was the Bravecto three month flea pill she got last week that caused the vomiting because there isn't another explanation. She didn't vomit during her earlier episodes of "bad tummy." Her diet will be very strict and I am hoping for the best.

She kept food and water down at the vet today and I'll bring her home tomorrow.

Thanks, everyone for your support.

I bet getting home will lift her spirits and recovery.  I hope so!

By the time you read this, I hope Harriet will be home and feeling much better.  I'm sure Hank will be happy to see her. 

I will continue my prayers for Harriet's recovery.  Do keep us posted on her condition.

@Sanguine @Suppressed @Applewood

Harriet is home with a pretty pink bandage on her IV site. She was subdued when I went to get her out of the cage. She didn't rush out as I thought she would. Maybe she couldn't believe her eyes. Hank walked right the cage and nuzzled her. Once she realized we were at the house, her tail started wagging and she knew she was home. Right now she is resting quietly next to me on the couch.

The vet thinks it's quite possible that it was Bravecto. She is on a special diet for three days and I'll be careful adding back foods as instructed. Her periodic tummy gurgles and this episode may be unrelated. I hate not knowing the cause but I'm so relieved and happy to have her home.

So glad Harriet is home.  I looked up Bravecto and it does list nausea/vomiting as a side effect, but then again, so do most other meds -- for humans too as well as pets.    Sure hope  a switch in meds, plus diet and such will help.

@austingirl

How is Harriet?
@Applewood

She is much better. I'm adding one food at a time to her diet to see if her tummy grinding is caused by a food allergy. Today she had tiny pieces of white meat turkey along with her regular dry food - Purina Overweight Management - and canned Enteric diet. She appreciated that! No treats allowed yet. I give her a couple of pieces of dry food when I give Hank a Greenie. She was confused about the lack of treats at first, but has accepted it. I'm more upset about the lack of treats than she is.

No vomiting since she came home Thursday. I am hopeful.

Thank you for asking.

She has recovered from the vomiting, but today she started drinking a lot of water and had two accidents in the house which never happens. The ultrasound showed "puffy" adrenals, which could indicate Cushing's but I blew right past that because I was worried she had cancer. She is happy and affectionate. I'm closely observing her. My decision will be all about her quality of life.

Congratulations to all upcoming retirees from this retiree. 

My paternal grandfather once said that retirement was the best thing to happen to a working man.  I would add "and woman," but he was right.  He was actually the first in his family to retire on a pension. Previous generations in his family worked till they died. 

Just be sure to have some things with which to occupy yourself -- volunteering, travel, hobbies, puttering around the house, something.
 My maternal grandfather did nothing all day but sit and watch tv.  In a few years, body and mind turned into mush and he was gone in 7 years.  Don't be like him.

https://twitter.com/backt0nature/status/1092828119470403585

I read up on some deer that lived long ago, the thing was actually huge but this in the video, is huge in itself as well.

The thing about moose is they don't care. They go where they want and do what they want. Best advice is to not mess with them.

My brother crossed paths with a cow with a calf moose while out elk hunting. He had to flee for his life, down through the pines, with the cow hot on his heels. Scared the heck out of him.

We had a neighbor who told us this story. He and a friend were headed up through the high desert here in Idaho, also going elk hunting. They came to a moose track, in fresh snow, headed up the road. Another pickup came up behind them in a big hurry. When they got to a spot wide enough this other pickup went roaring around them. A couple of miles further here sat that pickup. He and his friend got out to see what was going on. This other pickup had caught up to the moose making the track, a big bull. They said they started honking their horn, flashing their lights, trying to get the moose off the road. They said the moose turned around and using its front legs, it stomped the hood of their pickup down. Put a hole in the radiator and left a perfect imprint of the air cleaner in the hood, leaving them dead in the water. They said the moose left off the attack, turned around, and went ambling back up the road.

Don't mess with moose. They will kill you. Without looking it up I would bet more people are injured by moose than by bears.

We had a neighbor who told us this story. He and a friend were headed up through the high desert here in Idaho, also going elk hunting. They came to a moose track, in fresh snow, headed up the road. Another pickup came up behind them in a big hurry. When they got to a spot wide enough this other pickup went roaring around them. A couple of miles further here sat that pickup. He and his friend got out to see what was going on. This other pickup had caught up to the moose making the track, a big bull. They said they started honking their horn, flashing their lights, trying to get the moose off the road. They said the moose turned around and using its front legs, it stomped the hood of their pickup down. Put a hole in the radiator and left a perfect imprint of the air cleaner in the hood, leaving them dead in the water. They said the moose left off the attack, turned around, and went ambling back up the road.

Don't mess with moose. They will kill you. Without looking it up I would bet more people are injured by moose than by bears.

Good story.

Thought of that too. With this thing skulking through the brush, it would be hard to place it as being a cat in day or night. I'm sure it is well fed.

Title: The 'Toy Orphanage' Of Ukraine
Post by: TomSea on May 06, 2019, 06:17:08 pm
This is a pretty touching photo essay at least, to me.  Toys get lost, go into the toy orphanage.

Quote
The 'Toy Orphanage' Of Ukraine
A residential yard in Lviv is gaining fame as a haven for lost and abandoned toys.

(https://gdb.rferl.org/429290AA-C396-4415-BF3E-38CC95DD99B9_w1023_s.jpg)
This is the "Yard Of Forgotten Toys" in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv.

(https://gdb.rferl.org/2237CACD-114C-4C86-8F6F-A2119750E287_w1023_s.jpg)
The inner-city courtyard reportedly began to fill up with soft toys years ago when a resident of the building alongside found a lost teddy bear and propped it against a wall in the hope its owner would return.

(https://gdb.rferl.org/12A7D7D1-3080-455F-911A-6B24FECD8332_w1023_s.jpg)
The owner never did claim the toy. But according to Pavel Morozovski, who runs a small museum alongside the courtyard, young locals then began dropping off toys they had outgrown instead of throwing them away.

So many dogs and cats with afflictions are rejected for adoption, and it's a shame because most of them, unlike us, don't dwell on their illnesses, disabilities or old age.  They make the best of what they have and if you take them into your home, you will be rewarded with a loving companion -- a reward worth more than gold.    Great that this fellow took in a dog just like him.  I believe he is and will continue to be amply blessed.

We adopted Raimo about 2 years ago. He had been found by the side of a road after being hit by a car. When he came into the foster agency we work with he was found to be blind, epileptic and he had a heart murmur and some kidney issues. The "smart thing" would have been to put him down. Instead a woman named Diane gave him a good home. She went out of town to visit her children and we ended up doing respite care. I fell in love with him and we adopted him. He is one of the happiest dogs you will ever meet and he eitehr doesn't know he is blind or he just doesn't care. He is loving and doe snot let his problems slow him down. Our lives would be a lot poorer without him.

My first cat slipped off a window sill and fell into her litterbox.  Waste all over, so I had to bathe her.  She squirmed and cried the whole time, but didn't bite me.  But when we were done and she was towel dried, she stared licking herself all over.  Before long, her "extra bath" made her fur stand up.  She looked like she had a punk hairdo.  Wish I had a photo, but I didn't have a camera or smartphone back then.  I guess I laughed at her, which must have made a bad situation  worse because my normally very sociable cat ignored me for the rest of the day.  Spent most of the time in her favorite hiding place and wouldn't come out unless I left the room.

@Applewood

I accidentally acquired the weirdest,and maybe the meanest female cat in the world when living in one of two houses on a horse ranch outside of Denver. The people that lived in the other house moved out one day,and a couple of days later I happened to look over and see a tortoise shell calico cat sitting in a window. House was locked,so I broke a window to let her out. She followed me home and moved in.  I said to myself,"Ok,no big deal. She only weighs maybe 5 or 6 lbs so she can't eat that much.

A few weeks later I was home one afternoon and heard her scratching at the door and cying to get in,so I opened the door,and she walked in followed by a full-grown female Doberman,who walked over to a sofa chair,and laid down to take a nap. No tags,no collar. I have no idea how her and the cat got together,but they were best buds by the time they walked through the door. The cat seemed to hate other cats,and was fearless. The Dobie seemed to think anything smaller than her was a puppy,and in some cases a ugly puppy. None the less,she was ready to defend that cat to the death,as I found out later after moving back to the city,and having the neighbors German Shepherd chase her into the yard,and had her trapped in a basement window. Not as bad as you might think,because the basement windows in that neighborhood had bars on them.

It was hot weather and I had  a window open,so I immediately jumped up and ran for the door when I heard the battle cries, Ran down the hall and out the door,and then had to make a 90 degree turn to get to that basement window. The Dobie was hot on my heels,and took the corner running so fast she fell over.

It was immediately obvious to me the cat didn't need any help because all the screaming with pain was coming from the dog. His head was jammed between the bars,and evidentially she was dug in with 3 sets of claws,and slicing and dicing with the other one.

The dobie either didn't know or didn't care,and she hit that Shepherd so hard and fast she flipped over his back and tore a chunk of fur and meat out to take with her when she flipped.

It seems that "jar" and pain may have made him jump "right",because suddenly he was free from the window,on his feet,and hauling ass for home with the cat and the dobie chasing him. I called the dobie back,but the cat,being a cat,didn't give a damn and chased him to the point where he ran into the crawl space under "his" house.

She may have been mean,but she was also VERY smart tactically. She knew better than to get under the house with him,so she strutted back home with her tail up in the air,jerking and sending "That's right,I'm bad!" signals.

The next time I know of them tying up,she suckered him into chasing her under my 4 wheel drive pu. Where he got jammed. That was when she came off the driveshaft and started slicing him up again. He finally managed to back out and haul ass for home. Never saw or heard of him attacking her again after that,despite the fact that my cat was going into his yard and eat the cat food the neighbors put out for their cat. She walks back to my yard,once again high-stepping with her tail up in the air, flirting about.

I know of one other time they tied up,and it was a totally unprovoked attack on the dog. I was out in the back driveway one warm spring day,working on my 35 Chevy pu,when the cat came wandering up the driveway to see what I was doing/supervise. She jumped up on the front fender and then the hood,and sat down and started to groom herself while supervising. Suddenly she stopped in mid-lick,and I turned to see what she was looking at.

The neighbor had a 60's something Dodge car under a car cover parked right next to the fence in his yard. Being a warm spring day,the dog had gone out into the yard,and was laying on the ground in front of it,taking a nap.

I looked back at the cat and she had a look in her eyes like a scientist putting a complex problem together,and it turned out she was estimating angles and distances. The instant I could see it "click" in her eyes,she jumped from the truck cowl to the fence,to the top of the Dodge,to the hood of the Dodge,and when she came off the hood of the Dodge,she had 3 paws out with claws exposed,and her right front paw back and cocked. She landed on that sleeping dogs head and commenced slicking and dicing him. Rode him all the way to the crawl space under his house,and jumped off just before he missed the opening and crashed into the cement block skirting.

Strutted back to the yard with her "victory flag" flying again, and she did this about 2 weeks before having kittens.

The Shepherd always seemed to hang close to the  house after that one.

The drunken woman that lived in the rear apartment flagged me down one day and told me "I complained to management about  you having that cat in the apartment when you first moved in,but now I am glad you have her. Used to be cats in the yard fighting all the time,and they kept waking me up. I haven't seen another cat in the yard since you and the cat moved in. I think they are all afraid of her."

The only time I saw her whipped was by a squirrel. Used to be a big tree at the edge of the yard,with a couple of squirrels living in it. One of them liked to tease her by jumping out of the tree and running around in circles in the leaves to get her to chase him. When she did,she would end up stranded out on a branch too light to hold her.

I came home from school one night in a snowstorm,and when I rode my bike (engine off and gliding to not wake anyone) into the back yard,two of the neighbors were up waiting for me to tell me my cat wa up about 30 feet off the ground,and stranded out on a limb. The guy that lived next door had opened a window near the tree to see if he could reach her,but she was too far out,and with the sleet and snow with the dropping air temps,it wasn't going to get any better,so I asked him to get out his water hose and blast her out of the tree while me and another neighbor held a big beach towel to catch her.

Brought her in the house and dumped her in the bathtub with slightly warm water to get her circulation going again,and then toweled her off.

She never chased that squirrel again AFAIK. I have been out in the yard with her and heard the squirrel try to sucker her into it again by jumping out of the tree and ruffling dead leafs,and I could see her START to turn,and then lock her head forward and pretend she couldn't hear anything. She was SERIOUSLY pissed,though. I could see it in her eyes and in her body stiffening and her claws coming out. She had learned her lesson about chasing squirrels up trees.

Had to move home to take care of my father a year or so later,and he was terrified of her. I think she scared him more than the doberman did. He hated cats,but for some reason she liked him,and she liked laying in his lap. It was hilarious to watch him stiffen as he made her circle to get the right position to lay down and take a nap. By the time he died she had him cooking fish for her.

She lived for maybe another 10 years,and I still miss her.

IRL, the kitty would have shredded the woman's arm. wink777

I know a little something about that. I wasn't bathing a cat. I was holding it as my little dog was coming into the house from the patio. Cat reached down and caught my dog's ear. As I tried to pull the cat up to create distance between her and my dog, my little dog came up of the ground because the cat had caught her ear with a claw. My dog was yelping like crazy and I was desperately trying to get her loose from the cat's grip. Complete chaos ensued. I don't remember exactly how I got the cat to let go of my dog, but I managed to do it. In the process, I got the worst end of the whole ordeal.

The patio looked like a crime scene. The cat punctured an artery and I bled like crazy. I started feeling faint, so I called my BFF who came right over to render first aid. I bled into a trash can so she could measure it. It came to 1 pint. Thank God, my little 6-lb. dog wasn't hurt badly, but I did incur vet costs + a doctor visit and tetanus shot for me.

Thanks for sharing that great story.  In my experience it seems the toughest cats are almost always female.  I don't know why that is -- maybe it has something to do with a mother's instinct to protect her kittens.  I have one friend who years ago shared a rented house with another friend.  My friend had 2 cats, one male, one female, and the roommate had a female dog.  In that house, the female cat was boss.  The male cat and the dog were terrified of her.

As to your father's relationship with the cat:   Cats often seem to sense when people don't like them or are afraid of them and they sometimes will cozy up to them.  My mother didn't like cats, but when she came to my house, my sociable first cat would always sit by her or try to sit on her lap and purr.  And all the cats I had knew when I didn't feel well.  They would always park on top of me or beside me when I was lying down.  My first cat would sit on me and knead my tummy. That kneading was a great remedy for a variety of ailments.

I accidentally acquired the weirdest,and maybe the meanest female cat in the world when living in one of two houses on a horse ranch outside of Denver. The people that lived in the other house moved out one day,and a couple of days later I happened to look over and see a tortoise shell calico cat sitting in a window. House was locked,so I broke a window to let her out. She followed me home and moved in.  I said to myself,"Ok,no big deal. She only weighs maybe 5 or 6 lbs so she can't eat that much.

She lived for maybe another 10 years,and I still miss her.

I knew a couple of women who ran some sort of sewing shop several blocks from where I lived in Denver. Don't remember how I came to be in their shop one day,but there was a cat laying up on the counter,looking pretty pleased with herself,so I petted her and asked about her. They told me they didn't own her,but allowing her to come and go in the shop,sleep there at night,and to feed and care for her were conditions written into their lease. Seems the cat moved into the building as a kitten when the building owner had a shop there,and when she closed the shop and took the cat home,the cat ran away from home and went back to the building and moved in with the people renting it then. They had seen the cat when they went there to look at the building,and recognized it when it came in the door and called her. Ever since them,the cat went with the lease.

Anyhow,the two women told me that shortly after they rented the building for their shop,some guy came in and threatened them with a knife and tried to rob them. Which seemed to piss the cat off,because the last time they saw him he was running out the door with the cat on his head trying to scratch his eyes out.  They have no idea what happened to him,but the cat came back "home"  a couple of minutes later,curled up on the counter,and took a nap.

It is MY opinion that cats are a LOT smarter than most people think,but they are just uninterested in most of what they see going on,so they ignore it.

BTW,my father's last words as he lay dying was "Boy,you take good care of that damn cat!". He would have never admitted he liked her if he hadn't known he was dying. He would get mad as hell if I came home and caught him cooking something for her and insist he didn't like her. AFAIR,he never once called her by her name (Homicide). He always called her "that damn cat!"

And,of course,she didn't give a damn if he liked her or not. She liked him,and that was all she cared about.

Cats ARE smarter than people -- well, most people I know or have known anyway.  Cats know what's important to them -- a warm home, plenty of good food, clean water, clean litter and some play.  They don't care what we look like.  They don't care if we like them.  You have to understand that we don't own cats; cats own us.  We are their servants and as long as we do our job of giving them what they need, they are fine.  The rest of the things we think are important -- they really don't care.

By the way, I love that name -- Homicide.  Given how tough she was, it was a very appropriate name.

I'm a dog person as well but I had a feral take up residence and have a litter. I made sure they were fed, kept the dogs away and eventually trapped all of them to go get fixed. They hung around. The MaMa cat (Mink) lived here for 10 years. Outside, in this area, that is quite an accomplishment. She was the one that really made me respect feline intelligence. One day, after 10 years outside, she decided she wanted to come in and check things out. She did that for about a week, always wanting to go back outside. But one day she stayed and I couldn't boot her out. She  lived for about 3 years after that...always very polite. Used the litter box, never tore things up never was a pita.

It's hard to find anything that has more fun than baby goats. SOB's are more coordinated an hour after birth that most us are at any time in our lives,and they LOVE to run,jump,and climb things.

I have no idea where all that enthusiasm goes to when they grow out of being kids,but adult goats seem to have all the comprehension of earth worms,and can barely work up enough enthusiasm to get out of the rain. If it ain't about eating,they ain't interested.

Black cat takes the field during Monday Night Football

Halloween may be over, but that didn't stop a black cat from making its presence known on Monday night. In the middle of a Monday Night Football game between the New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys, a black cat darted onto the field as stunned fans and commentators looked on.

The cat wandered the field before sprinting through the Giants' end zone, and eventually disappeared under a seat section. Some fans believe the cat brought bad luck — the Giants had been leading the Cowboys prior to the disruption, but ended up losing 37-18.

If it a feral adult cat it's probably beyond being domesticated. It's mostly the kittens of ferals that can be socialized and domesticated. The best that can be done for an adult feral is to spay/neuter and then release it where it can continue keeping down the rodent population.

A friend volunteers with Gatos de la Noche, https://www.gatosdelanoche.com/ (https://www.gatosdelanoche.com/) , and they do what I described above.

@PeterS

Not true. I have a formally feral female cat laying next to me on a stool. She was one of the feral cats I feed behind a store,and I fed her from the time she was a kitten,to the time she was maybe 2 or 3 years old before bringing her home.

I was feeding the cats one day when she came up to me and started rubbing her head against my ankles and purring. I had never even touched her before,but I just picked her up,put her in my truck,and took her home with me. It wasn't long before I figured out what her plan was. She was pregnant,and there were problems with the pregnancy. I took her to the vet and she had 9 kittens with the help of surgery,but all buy 1 died. I brought that one home and tried to bottle feed him until his mother was well and could nurse,but he only lasted 3 days. She is still in my house 3 years later,and damned if she isn't half again as big as she was now that she can eat her fill and sleep without having to run away from other animals.

I also have 4 other cats I got from behind those dumpsters. The big tom was a yellow stripped kitten someone dropped off with his sister just before a big snow storm maybe 3 years ago. His sister froze to death one night,and he was sick and going blind. Luckily for him,there was a little tom there at the time that seemed to "adopt and babysit" sick kittens,and that's how I figured out the yellow tom kitten was sick and going blind. He couldn't get far away from where he was fed because he was weak and couldn't see very good,so the other little tom stayed with him and hugged him to keep him warm. I just picked him up one day and took him to the vet. We managed to save one eye,but the other had to be taken out. The most recent is a little crazy female that was really too young to be weaned when she was dropped off,and just about starved by the time I caught her. She is as nice as she can be one day,and the next day walk around with her back humped and spitting at anything that moves.

Somebody dropped off some kittens there a week ago. The guy that feeds them in the morning caught one,but there is a really fuzzy black one I spotted a few days ago that ran away and hasn't been seen since,and a couple of days ago I spotted a tiny little fluff ball Maine Coon looking kitten. She is so tiny she hops instead of running.  She actually started to come right up to me tonight when I fed them,but there was a new adult black shorthair female there that hisses and scared her away. This was a housecat somebody dropped off. I know this because when she saw me coming with the food bag,she ran right up to me to get fed,and she was so hungry she got under the bag when I was pouring the food out and tried to eat is as it was falling.  Any adult cat that will walk right up to a stranger in the open is a house cat. Plus her fur was bright and shiny. When she hissed,the kitten shrieked,spun around,and hopped away,and that got all of them running.

I suspect I will be catching that adult female in the next few days and talking her to the SPCA. Going to try to catch the kittens and take them there,too.

I won't use a trap. I will probably use a capture cage on the adult cat,though.

I'll just have to pick up any kitten that gets close enough,and put it in a cardboard box because they aren't heavy enough to trigger the capture cage trap door.

Straphanger takes mini horse on Bay Area train ride


A mini horse that serves as a Bay Area resident’s service animal was allowed on a commuter train in San Francisco Tuesday, the transit agency said.

The horse’s owner provided paperwork to a transit worker on the BART train and the horse was cleared for entry, the train system said on Twitter.

“After consultation (station agents usually don’t see horses), the horse was allowed in,” BART said in the message.

@PeterS

Not true. I have a formally feral female cat laying next to me on a stool. She was one of the feral cats I feed behind a store,and I fed her from the time she was a kitten,to the time she was maybe 2 or 3 years old before bringing her home.

I was feeding the cats one day when she came up to me and started rubbing her head against my ankles and purring. I had never even touched her before,but I just picked her up,put her in my truck,and took her home with me. It wasn't long before I figured out what her plan was. She was pregnant,and there were problems with the pregnancy. I took her to the vet and she had 9 kittens with the help of surgery,but all buy 1 died. I brought that one home and tried to bottle feed him until his mother was well and could nurse,but he only lasted 3 days. She is still in my house 3 years later,and damned if she isn't half again as big as she was now that she can eat her fill and sleep without having to run away from other animals.

I also have 4 other cats I got from behind those dumpsters. The big tom was a yellow stripped kitten someone dropped off with his sister just before a big snow storm maybe 3 years ago. His sister froze to death one night,and he was sick and going blind. Luckily for him,there was a little tom there at the time that seemed to "adopt and babysit" sick kittens,and that's how I figured out the yellow tom kitten was sick and going blind. He couldn't get far away from where he was fed because he was weak and couldn't see very good,so the other little tom stayed with him and hugged him to keep him warm. I just picked him up one day and took him to the vet. We managed to save one eye,but the other had to be taken out. The most recent is a little crazy female that was really too young to be weaned when she was dropped off,and just about starved by the time I caught her. She is as nice as she can be one day,and the next day walk around with her back humped and spitting at anything that moves.

Somebody dropped off some kittens there a week ago. The guy that feeds them in the morning caught one,but there is a really fuzzy black one I spotted a few days ago that ran away and hasn't been seen since,and a couple of days ago I spotted a tiny little fluff ball Maine Coon looking kitten. She is so tiny she hops instead of running.  She actually started to come right up to me tonight when I fed them,but there was a new adult black shorthair female there that hisses and scared her away. This was a housecat somebody dropped off. I know this because when she saw me coming with the food bag,she ran right up to me to get fed,and she was so hungry she got under the bag when I was pouring the food out and tried to eat is as it was falling.  Any adult cat that will walk right up to a stranger in the open is a house cat. Plus her fur was bright and shiny. When she hissed,the kitten shrieked,spun around,and hopped away,and that got all of them running.

I suspect I will be catching that adult female in the next few days and talking her to the SPCA. Going to try to catch the kittens and take them there,too.

Great story about the mini-horse.  Is that the same as a pony?
Title: Re: Thread of Cute
Post by: Applewood on November 06, 2019, 10:04:10 pm
If it a feral adult cat it's probably beyond being domesticated. It's mostly the kittens of ferals that can be socialized and domesticated. The best that can be done for an adult feral is to spay/neuter and then release it where it can continue keeping down the rodent population.

A friend volunteers with Gatos de la Noche, https://www.gatosdelanoche.com/ (https://www.gatosdelanoche.com/) , and they do what I described above.


Over the years, I have taken in two adult ferals and both were great pets.  I think it might have something to do with how and where they were raised.  I believe both of my cats were house pets at some point in their lives, but their owners abandoned them or somehow they ended up homeless  Now a cat which grew up in a feral colony -- that might be different.

Well, instead of being lazy and asking others, I decided to do research into ponies vs. miniature horses and here is what I found:

There are differences in size, appearance, usage and lifespan.

Monday night black cat still on the loose at MetLife Stadium

The elusive black cat from "Monday Night Football" is still on the run.

MetLife Stadium officials said Thursday the search for the fleet feline that briefly delayed the nationally televised game between the New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys on Monday night has been unsuccessful.

The search started on Tuesday morning with multiple humane traps being stationed in the stadium. After that came up empty, stadium officials asked PuppykittyNYCity — a trap, neuter, release and no-kill shelter — for help.

Commuters delighted by group of golden retrievers waiting in line on train platform

Commuters were given paws for thought when they spotted a dozen golden retrievers lining up on their own — to wait for a train.

The adorable dogs, dubbed "good boys and girls" by witnesses, were spotted patiently waiting on the platform.

More than 30 thousand social media users shared a picture of the golden dogs waiting at Barnes Station, in southwest London, and posted hilarious puns about why they could be waiting. One called the scene a meeting of “Very Important Puppies,” while another branded it the “Andrex puppy reunion.” (Andrex, a brand of British toilet tissue, often features an "Andrex puppy" in its marketing campaigns.)

It's a relatively common business tactic: Find an untapped demographic and cater to that market directly. For instance, target flexitarians with Impossible Whoppers. Or target the sober with non-alcoholic drinks. Or target squirrels with burritos…. Wait, one of these things doesn't sound as lucrative as the others.

Thanks, y'all. He was so traumatized when I first got him after being surrendered by the only family he'd ever known since he was a puppy. All of a sudden at 12 years old he found himself in a little cage with barking dogs all around. I can't imagine how a dog's mind processes that. He hadn't even been neutered. I tried to get medical records on him, but the previous owner just said they took him to the vet in 2017 for flea protection. Whaaaaat?

Anyway, he's landed in a pot of jam since we became a family. He didn't eat at first and was simply shut down emotionally. I'm happy to tell y'all he's made a full recovery. He's a happy little dog, and I'm a happy little mama! He's energetic and loving and, although he was everything I didn't want in a poodle (male, older, blind in one eye, dark coat), I wouldn't change a thing!

Thank you for sharing your little guy's story.  Most people when they adopt a pet look for puppies or kittens and overlook the senior citizens.  My second cat was an old girl.  A stray left to fend for herself when her people cut her loose.  She too was fearful of people and it looks like she suffered some abuse.  When she showed up at my house, she was starving and flea ridden.  Took her in, a friend of mine gave her a flea bath and then she went to the vet.  The vet guessed her to be around 10 or more, but other than the fleas, she was in remarkably good health for a stray.  Took her some time to trust me and she didn't like my other cat, but eventually, she adjusted.  She had six good years with me before she passed and I believe she was grateful for every one of those years.  When she was happy, she let out a purr you could hear in the next county.

May your baby give you many more years of happiness.

We are dealing with a JRT foster right now. He was severely abused. First 2-3 days i had to "corner" him to get the leash to take him for a "drag" It took him almost a week to walk into the den or the  bedroom, he kept hiding in the living room. Now he runs up to us to get petted when we walk in the door. He loves going for walks now and loose leash walks very well. He still acts like he expects to get hit when I put the leash on him, but is getting better. He will run the steps to the bed, but won't come on the bed yet. Small steps every day.

I totally agree with you re: senior dogs/cats @Applewood . They are overlooked. All but one of my dogs (and there have been many) were "dump" dogs. Living where I do people seem this is the place to discard their unwanted pets. I had lots of cats as a kid but the two I've had as an adult were stray/rescue. I won't even go into the birds I bought from the dime store that weren't being taken care of...and the horses. Yes..I am a sucker.

The thing I've always wished was that the "oldsters" and the discarded pets were provided with stories that told their lives. I always wonder what their lives were before they came to me.
