Why?

I fgured somebody would get a kick out of that

cause you left a plastic bag out, duh!

My other cat would just sit and look at the bags, nto poke holes in them and pull the clothes out

On the plus side...


He'll do that for hours.....

My kitty does the same stuff to my girlfriend and I . She is so funny If you leave something out she gets into it. Bags,boxes,etc.
Her new thing is climing the wall. We have unfinished wood trim around the doors and stuff at the house.. She actually climbs up the walls and gets on to the rafters.(2x4's) and walks from one end of the house to the other. It's great fun to watch her run around up there!!!!

My cat control is pretty useless. His lazy, 120 pound ass couldn't catch a cat if his life depended on it.

LOL

Yeah when I walked into the apartment, I found the cat in a corner, next thing I knew he was running toward me on two rear legs with his front paws ready to fight, he latched onto my pants and crawed up them!

Woah

Because you forgot to put the cat in the plastic bag.

HEEEEEE

I actually like cats better than dogs, I dont have to go out to the back yard and pick up sh#t all the time, I dont have to follow them around on a leash and clean up after them when I go for a walk, they dont bark in the night and wake me up and they keep the rodent population down to nill. Cats are great!

I like dogs because they don't do this...........

I Can Has Cheezburger?

Mine helps me work on the car! Actually he's stolen from the neighbors!

Hey Seth, saw the cat climbing the walls and knew it had to be yours!! You weren't kidding.

This is my Lexus. She's vicious!

Hahah. We need to teach her to fetch tools. That would be great.

quick! I need a 13mm wrench!

meow!

Ooops no kitty. Here she is.

She's also into macromae!

I would imagine the two guys trying to get into my tool shed would have liked it

if I prefered cats too.

Cats are cool, if you don't mind that the first sign of fire or trouble and their gone

(Unless of course you are the cats only way out).

Besides I hear they taist like chicken, Just like smhoo's and lesbians

Cats are to Eric Shea as Eric Shea is to God.

Matthew 13:40-42

40"As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age.

41The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil.

42They will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

My dog and the stupid cat (daughters) are best friends. The 85 pound Chesapeake Bay Retriever cuddles up and sleeps with the cat....

Geez!

Old Testament, real wrath-of-God type stuff. Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies. Rivers and seas boiling. Forty years of darkness. Earthquakes, volcanoes... the dead rising from the grave. Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together - mass hysteria.

Do you really think I can make God sneeze?

Damn... I'm screwwwwwwwwed.

why? because:

- when you feed your dog, it thinks "This human is giving me free food every day. He must be a god!"

- when you feed your cat, it thinks "This human is giving me free food every day. I must be a god!"


that about sums it up.
cats are independent and don't take crap from nobody. my kind of pet.

One main reason that I like cats is their uncanny ability to detect BS.

That ability lets them immediately sense whether a person is good or bad, a liar or cheat, and whether that person is worth the cat's time. More than a few people I have known have failed the "cat test" and later events proved the cat 100% right.

As per that statement of
"Cats are cool, if you don't mind that the first sign of fire or trouble and their gone"

I beg to differ. One time I was in my front yard with my cat lounging around, and a large dog spotted me, ran into my yard growling and bearing his teeth at me in attack mode. That cat jumped up from somewhere, ran between me and the dog, and proceeded to puff up and howl. That gave me time to pick up the shovel, look the dog in the eyes and move at him with the distinct intent to sever parts of his anatomy with that shovel blade. The dog realized I was more serious and dangerous than he was, and backed off. The owner who was walking that vicious dog ran up and started yelling at me. I gave him one chance to get that mutt off my property, or he was getting him back in pieces. He was more than a little resentful to my suggestion his dog should be kept chained in his yard. But I pointed out the dog's attack behavior, and the cost of a lawsuit should that mutt ever decide to savage somebody- like me who could fight back, or even worse, a child who couldn't.

So if you are worth it, the cat will fight for you.

Well said. And it's not that I'm a "cat person" but an animal person and people making light of being cruel to animals pisses me off. Anyway, here are a couple of cat stories that were in the news recently ... although the second one is a little hard to believe.

My next cat will be something along these lines, we may even start breeding them as I really like the concept of a unique breed of large cat. For those of you who dont know, this is a Savanah which is bred from the african Servals and they get to be about 30 or 40 pounds when full grown.

Beautiful animal! What is their temperment? Hate to have a mean 30lb cat mad at me.

From what I understand, they pretty much have the same temperament as a normal domestic house cat, just a little bigger

I used to have an all black cat that was mixed with something and he grew to 27 pounds, it was hell if he jumped down in your lap from the top of the couch, knock the wind right out of you or make you feel like you were just kicked in the gonads. He was a very cool and calm cat but when it came to dogs, he kind of had an attitude if they got too close to him. I never declaw my cats either, I feel it is their natural defense and would not want to deprive them of being able to defend themselves.

Yup!

...and my less popular opinion, show me a person who doesn't like cats, I'll show you a person that doesn't like women. Similar creatures in many ways.

Scott,

Good luck with a big notso domestic cat. One of my highschool friends had an ocelot. It was about 40 lbs. I will never forget the day when we went over to his house after school and we walked in on the cat eating and dismembering the La-z-boy. Had that sucker over on it's back, the guts were everywhere and he just kept savaging the prey. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...........

On the other hand, my wifey had a very large boned 30 lb maine coon cat and he was the most friendly and affectionate cat. He would climb onto my lap and his front and rear legs would hang over about 6 inches on each side.

Our 8 year old handicaped"Squirt".She was a wild kitten that found her way into our yard;I tried for days to catch her.She is paralized from the middle back down,has been since we found her in the dogs kennel.She was so small the dog must have thought she was a field rat. Don`t feel bad for her she is not in any pain and totally spoiled.She loves her go-cart that I designed,it has model airplane wheels and rear steering.

Say hello to my little friend

Here is my little buddy. He showed up on my doorstep one day and never left. Catches mice, rats, birds, etc. He likes talking walks with a harness on too. Knocks when he wants in or out. Known to have at least three homes when I lived in San Jose.

He must have some Maine Coon in him because he finally starting to fill out at 15 pounds.

Funny, Squirt is my cat's name too! She just turned 18 earlier this month. I've had her since she was two weeks old.

I breed a litter of Golden Retrievers every year, usually in the spring, so I don't have to clean up the kitchen floor at 2:30 AM every night for about 6 weeks, as I do if it's a winter litter. Amber was due Thursday. But last Monday night, after I went to bed at 11:15, she came in to get me at 2; I thought she needed a bathroom break because of that great sack of puppies hanging there. But when I got down to the kitchen I heard the mewing (yeah, like a kitten for a few weeks), and went to look at her bed-pad. Four pups were already out. Apparently she wanted company/help--I had always been there for all the pups in previous years, and thought I would get the usual signs in the 24 hours before they were coming. But she had gotten the jump on me. An hour later #5 came, followed by the 6th in ten minutes. We had had her x-rayed, so knew that was all (we do that for safety sake, so that one that has died won't get left in there and create infection.) By morning she was acting almost as if nothing had happened--except for staying constantly by them to nurse. They're putting on weight fast, and will be those fluff-balls you see in advertisements in about 3 weeks. And, as contrasted with my two teenagers, these will be through school and out on their own in 2 1/2 weeks. And I get $500 each time one graduates to its new home. The year I bought my very clean 914 for $4100 she had 9 pups-- I told my friends that my dog bought me a nice Porsche. But the best of all is the weeks when they are fuzzy and affectionate (again, better than my teens) and full of fun. And yes, after the second litter, we kept one as a companion for Mom-dog-- they always like to have another to romp and wrestle with. We have a yearly "family" reunion (just last week this time), usually with over a dozen of her grown pups, and it's a hoot. Cats are OK, but I have a fierce allergy to them, so I get my best company from dogs of all ages.

I'll see your cat, and raise you one......

In memory of my recently departed little buddy, Ra. ( I thought about naming him Buck when I got him, he was named Rambo at the pound )
Anyway, had him for 1 and 1/2 years, estimated 2 years old when I got him. Came home, and he had passed during the day - no sickness or anything. *sob*. Oh well, I'm glad to have known him !!

Lee,
Having "lost" three feline animal companions ('96, '98, '05), I know the feeling of loss you've experienced
