New is old...Such a seamless transition.

How are all the Zoners' pets feeling about the zone.

Mine celebrated with a dance

Real men love cats.

 

*toke*

Cats are pussies.

...and so a "men" who don't know how to positively interact with a feline.

 

*toke*

It's not up to the man. The feline is in total control of the relationship. Cats have people as pets.

Zippy, I've had five cats over the years, not a fan.

Exactly BK, but if you do not know how to take advantage of that independence

and make a true friend you are psychologically flawed.

I would go further and say that person is a sociopath with very little compassion or patience.

Cats are the easiest animals to connect with.

 

*toke*

A kitten can learn how to shit on the toilet and flush it. It takes a human about 17 years to learn that skill. It just ain't right!

Dogs need to be walked 5 or more times a day. 

Cats have the good sense to sleep 22 out of 24 hours.

We Have Both.

cats are goddamn filthy creatures

Says the guy who allows his dog to lick his face after licking its anus.

That is disgusting.

Some old friends

cats lick their anuses

they rub their feet in their shit and piss, then walk all over the counters and tabletops people eat from

 

and fuck you zippy

See what I mean about the sociopath mentality of cat haters? 

 

*toke*

Dogs give you unconditional love. Cats come with strings attached.

Been checking out the pounds to rescue a new friend. 

 

Sorry zippy I need a dog not a person

Takes a person to need a person, otherwise you are just a shell.

 

*toke*

We are going to meet a possible new family member. A flat coated retriever 11 months old. if he takes a shine to me or lois in the meet and greet he will be coming home with us today!!

>>>> Cats are pussies.

 

Well played, BK

 

I have two large cats, but don't have any photos of them with me right now.

 

This will have to suffice:

Gonna try learning pix uploading w/some of my cat's pix's:

Dutch_late_Nov_crop.jpg

This is Dutch.  I rescued him from a feral colony back in Oct.  He's about 4 mo's old now.

Here he is annoying my older cat Chance.  Chance is tolerating him now:

Chance&Dutch_crop.jpg

This is Wallflower.  I adopted her from the same colony. She was barely weaned and had all kinds of health issues.  This pix is from back in Oct when I first got her.  Her eye was almost done for.  It is better now but she is very shy & does not like being handled/picked up due to the # of vet visits/ amount of medicines I've had to give her.  I'm trying to get her more social before she gets older & her fear is locked in.  She now @ least sleeps in my bedroom @ night.  I'm trying to get a good recent pic, she's in much better health now.  I've spent north of $1,000 on these guys since Oct but it's worth it.  Dutch is a total riot, he's attached to me & totally spoiled now.​Wallflower_new_crop.jpg

thumb_me_layla.jpg

Miss Layla is gone now. But, we're just trying to work out transport for our latest rescue, an 8 month old AmStaff named Cressida. Pics to come.

And apparently, I haven't quite figured out how to post pictures.

I would love to get a dog (or even 2) but since my future life plans are kind of up in the air (depending on when/where I get a 2nd job which will dictate whether I stay here or move) I don't want to put that stress on a new adoptee.

that's 3, sideshow.  one more and you qualify for crazy cat lady

me_layla_0.jpgOK, better.

Here is Dutch's first live mouse, which Chance brought in for him.

I once lived next door to a crazy cat lady. She had between 20-25 cats, she wasn't sure of the total, plus she had two dogs and a few birds. She was a college professor. 

here's the crew tolerating each other for Thanksgiving...zz20161124_161126[1]_0.jpg

>>>>>>> one more and you qualify for crazy cat lady

I've had up to 5 cats for several years twice.  Then for about a half a year I had a dog & 7 cats.  Seems to me the cats have better temperaments when they have buddies.

 

Untitled_0.jpgHe's a good pup!

bet your house smells great

Nice-looking batch of pets.

H:u:sky still looks the same.

I like that pic, BK smiley

The Q having a good old time with a cork he found.

Good luck today Catch, I hope it's a match!

My wife did her best to convert me from a dog person to a cat person.

Here's my first ever cat, Bat, from 1991.  Yes, he's levitating an empty White Castle box.

A Dogs life, hello Disco!

IMG_4775.JPG

new member to the catch clan......................yea sometime I will figure out how to post now.

^Congratulations, Catch!

 

May you all cherish each other and provide/receive much-needed comfort.

 

And (((Sammy))).  What a sincere dog, Kate.

One of the four cats opened the sliding screen door today and it was a pussy stampede, and then the dog followed. I had to play cat herder.

Congratulations on your new Canine companion, Catch & Lois. I suppose it looks like one of these pups:

There’s three cute little black kittens playing on my porch right now

I should figure out who’s they are or what, before it gets any colder.

Here’s Dusty again.

Thanks Disco Spencer looks the most like the second from the left. He is very skinny from being in Jail Lois and I will put some muscle on his bones.....IMG_0869.jpg.....

lookie lookie I posted a pic..............................to bad it is of my old dog which looks just like the new dog.................

love the new pic size. so much more detail comes thru

....and then there's Daphne, the heat vent slut. She's a little hungover from all this VivaLaZone excitement.

Husky has been 'shopping' at Home Despot and Lowe's a few times over the last couple of weeks. We've had a few rainy stretches; he likes Snow but the rain doesn't agree with H.I.M.

spy01.jpg

One thing I notice is that the Indian or Pakistani fellows in the giant hardware stores seem to have a strong dislike of Dogs. One of them jumped like six feet when he turned the corner and saw H:u:sky headed his way.

i so heart this thread!!

I've always been a kitty person, and as far as dogs, my sis had the very best Samoyed runt when i was growing up. he was so smart and cool; it spoiled me!

baby daddy family had horrible dogs, which turned me off until Alex. he had a gorgeous Rottie (Esther!) who died of cancer, Sadly.

Our Buddy is a big dummy who wants to be a lap dog, but he's very sweet and wants to be a good boy...

Lucy the barn cat was here before us...since we're in this farming community, there's a little population left of ferals who were trapped/ fixed/ returned.

Lucy is maybe 7 or 8 now, her dad is Larry (!) is still around the 'hood. as well as a couple of her cousins, as it were.  it's pretty cool.

our oldest kitty, Mitus, is 7 now, and such a little princess bitch.  my gato delicato lol.

Stormy we adopted from a farm nearby. Hannah and i were on the way home from a bday sleepover she was at 2 years ago, and the free kitten sign just spoke to me! turns out he's a Siberian, bred, prized, big $ cats with a squirrelly tail and grow up to 20#!! he's so rad and a total farm cat, who looks like a fancy cat lol. 

after our sweetest Toozy died earlier this year, i wanted a female to balance out the family. turns out the little girl we fell in love with had a bonded litter bro that also ended up coming home with us (:

i mean, his name at the shelter was Garcia, for fuck sake!!!

Animals RULE

My dog, Dusty is asleep in a living room chair, but having nightmares.

His whiskers are twitching, like's he talking.

Cats always be freaking out:

I forget if Lumber's pups are 'German Shorthair Pointers'.  They look like it.

Hüsky has a couple pals,  Chip & Otis who are GSP / Lab crosses.  Good pups,  very energetic.

Hey, stu...

Black and white is an aussie shepherd/border collie 

Tri color is a German shorthaired pointer/terrier
