View Full Version : Do you have a pet?
OpteronGuy 01-21-08, 01:53 PM Just as the title reads, do you? If so post pics or GTFO.
My dog. (chrish.100megs42.com/pictures/Sid_1024_5.jpg) She's a Dobe/something. Most say Lab so I tend to go with that.

That poor poor dog.... :D
I guess no one else around here has a pet?
I have a dog and a cat living with me.
Till Eulenspiegel 01-21-08, 09:06 PM Nope. No pets, unless you count my Koi and they aren't really pets.
I grew up with animals, always a dog or two, or three and cats, cats, cats. I had dogs, cats, iguana, ferrets, ducks, chickens, turkeys, parakeets, canaries, pigeons, a goose, rabbits and a goat,
When my kids were growing up we had pets.
Now that my wife and I are retired we no longer have pets. When our last dog died we decided to not get another one. we travel a lot and it wouldn't be fair to have a pet.
As the saying goes, "True freedom is when the last kid moves out and the dog dies."
Asguard 01-21-08, 09:09 PM I love animals
Have
2 dogs
3 cats
a budgie
and god knows how many fish:)

Can't argue with that one bit.

I knew a guy that had a pig, which was odd, but a goose??? wtF? :bugeye:
RubiksMaster 01-21-08, 09:49 PM I have a Pitbull / Rottweiler mix and a Malamute / Golden Retriever mix. I used to have a different pitbull, but it died, and I've gone through 5 cats.
Those pitbulls though, they're the sweetest dogs ever.

a farm.
Asguard 01-21-08, 10:28 PM my grandparents had a farm (my grandmother still has it but dont know what she will do with it now she doesnt have pop) my cousins (who lived next door where as we lived in the city) refused to eat lamb because "it came from nan and pops padocks". The idiocy of that was that we city slickers were quite happy to eat lamb vertually fresh from the padock. Some of the best lamb i have ever had actually
I grew up with pets: 3 turtles, 2 hedgehogs, 1 small nano-small dog (fits in a pocket), 3 cats, 1 bunny, 1 hamster, 1 mole, 2 lizards

well lucky you. I also partially grew up on a farm with chickens, wild rabbits (lots of them stealing the cabbage), farm mice, small rabbits ... and guess what "fresh chicken" ;) all the time
Asguard 01-21-08, 10:33 PM my parents do keep chickens but mainly for eggs not meat, that is partually because in the city its very hard to keep a rooster because they make to much noise
OpteronGuy 01-21-08, 10:40 PM my parents do keep chickens but mainly for eggs not meat, that is partually because in the city its very hard to keep a rooster because they make to much noise
That reminds me of Kramer in Seinfeld...
Although I have to ask, if your parents live in the city, where do they keep the chickens?? I mean, that has to be a real pain in the ass keeping chickens in the city..
Asguard 01-21-08, 10:47 PM actually its not really. Firstly by the city i was refering to the suberbs, they have a normal quarter acre block (sorry as i said one half of my family is country so i have picked up some of there speach). Secondly dad built them a cage thats about 5m x 5m x 3m (i think) that ataches to the vegi garden so they can let the choocks straight into the garden in the off season. Also they let them out to wander around the back yard normally and the 2 dogs protect them and have no problem with them. They feed them household scraps so and get eggs and good fertiliser out of them. They also turn over the soil in the veg garden and fertize it so they get even better veg

We were farmers, mainly poultry. We had a couple thousand chickens, Plymouth Rocks, Rhode Island Reds and Black Jersey Giants, plus Muscovy Ducks. We also raised a few turkeys, pigeons (squab) and rabbits for personal consumption. The goat and goose were pets.
Most of the dogs and cats were to keep down vermin.

We had plain white ducks, my uncle had Muscovy's. They were a lot more agressive and bigger. They were like geese in ducks clothing. Did you have an Guinea hens? We did. noisy noisy

Ah, ok, that explains it. I kind of thought that it was more like the suburbs but wasn't sure.

No. It took two seconds. To go find, edit, scan, resize, and redo a bunch of pics is not worth my time. Get over it. :)
oh boy...two second is so much...oh I just can't take it. I mean its just overwhelming.

does "Buddy" behave like a buddy? or does "Buddy" bite?
Nah he's never bitten anyone. He barks when people knock on the door, but once we let someone in he goes and takes a nap or something. He really loves cameras, any time he sees one he'll pose until he hears the click, then gets all excited that he did such a good job :p

Enmos your cat needs to go on a diet. It is obviously up to many fats in its system as well as high cholesterol, please give it more greens as well.

1. She was not fat at all, and she was on a special diet because of her kidney problems.
2. She's dead :(

that explains it. If I had seen the cat in an earlier stage, I would have made a diagnosis and a cure, you would follow my instructions...and the cat would be alive and well. The main point to remember here is that we all die someday, so it's ok. We are reborn oncemore later, as cats or humans or other creatures of this world.

There was no way she was going to live much longer though, besides she was 18,5 years old already.
In future...we can make clones of our pets. And than program them to their instincts and memories...so that our children will live with their pets forever to never face the pain of suffering from the death of their beloved ones.

It wouldn't be the same..
It wouldn't be the same..
we can store the memory of our pets just before they die and reprogram into the cloned pets grown from the stem cells and than when time comes the company will monitor if the pet dies and will immedeatly replace it with the clone without anyone knowing...Courtesy of the company. Furthermore the practice will be insured for ages.
If however pet owners realize that their pets have died and our now clone no#34 or something like that (33 have died...and this is number 34 clone) than the pet owners themselves can be reprogrammed to delete unnecessary information of knowledge of their pet death to a more favorable memory of a pet that lives forever.
The World Pet Database will store the DNA information of all pets as well as samples of their stem cells in case anything happens. The same will be applied of humans. If humans become pets of some sort of alien species from outerspace...than those alien species can always replace their human pets with new cloned ones...and further on...and etc.

It still wouldn't be the same. It will just be another cat, with another personality but with the same memories.. no good.

lucifers angel 01-22-08, 03:12 PM i have 2 cats (norweigien forest cats) called loki and archie and today i was offered a new one, anouther norweigien forest cat and i have to admit i am thinking about it, i want to call him, Nanook
No cat or dog then ?
used to have a dog....but one day my grandma was going heading away from a house with a huuuuuge smile on her face when I was coming back from school...so I ask my grandma...what's up?...and she is like, guess what I gave away your doggy to some church "sister" and now she is heading for Moscow...so no more poop on the floor...
My heart sank, my face was morbid for the rest of the week...or month.
yup she was tired of the small poop the dog left, so she gave it away. :bawl:
----
cats....almost same story...the poor cat was told to go pee to toilet only and nowhere else...One day we (me and my grandma) come from church and find the cat going back and forth near the bathroom door, so we open the door and the cat rushes in to pee, but accidently ( I am not making this up) hits the sink with such a force that it cracks and breaks apart, and than the cat pees...but before the cat finishes to pee, my grandma is in rage because the sink broke so she takes the cat and throws it outside the apartment into the hallway...the poor kitty runs away. To be never heard of. And whenever I ask neighbors or kids on the block...they are like "oh yeah that cat that got run over twice by a car?" ...or "wait...thats the cat that was burned in a gurbige sink by a bunch of kids?, right?"...or even better...."yeah bunch of kids got the cat and put it into a compartment and sealed it with cemented bricks for forever".... I mean it was it for me. O well.

What about cows, pigs etc ?
Spud Emperor 01-23-08, 07:19 AM I dont get it...how come crustaceans are ok to be savaged and eaten meanwhile mammals are not to be touched?!!!
The crustaceans and molluscs I eat get humanely euthenased ( chilled in the fridge 'til they go into suspended animation then die).
I also kill fish, they get the Japanese method of ike jima, very swift.
The cat and my family get fresh seafood, one of the lowest footprint ( ecological footprint, you know, cost of production, fuel,fertilisers, pesticides etc.) foodsources there is.
Jozen-Bo 01-23-08, 07:49 AM At the moment no. I have had many. I had a cat named 'Ninga' that beat of a rotweiler! Now he is staying with my brother-in-law, Another one that comes to mind is the mighty cat 'Fuzzy', she learned to stop killing birds after I had a 'talk' with her. She was the wisest cat I have ever known. She passed on. I had a dream she was reborn as a Tiger.
The mammals I eat get humanely euthenased ( chilled in the fridge 'til they go into suspended animation then die).
I also kill cats and dogs, they get the Japanese method of ike jima, very swift.
The crustacean crab and my family get fresh mammals, one of the lowest footprint ( ecological footprint, you know, cost of production, fuel,fertilisers, pesticides etc.) foodsources there is.
Spud Emperor 01-23-08, 08:20 AM Glad we're on the same wavelength Draq.
p.s, think you'll find they are not crabs but southern rock lobsters, Jasus verreauxii.

Yeah, Muscovy Ducks can be pretty feisty. They also have serrations on their bill and an egg tooth that can make a nip something to remember.
We kept a few Guinea Hens as watchdogs. They and the goose made lots of noise whenever a stranger was in the vicinity.

Yeah Sandy, he's adorable, only just 12 months old and has personality to burn, loves a chat, drinks wine with me, great with the kids, very funny, very relaxed, very social, loves the beach.
He's a Tonkinese ( Siamese/Burmese derivative).
The breed came highly recommended.
He's the second favourite animal I've ever had and I've had a few.

Nikelodeon 01-25-08, 08:35 AM In future...we can make clones of our pets. And than program them to their instincts and memories...so that our children will live with their pets forever to never face the pain of suffering from the death of their beloved ones.
How horrible.

That's fantastic Cosmic,
Now I have to tell you about my ole mate Mutley, he was a fucking classic.
Funniest dog that ever lived and I'll give examples if pressed but for the moment, I'll relate his legendary abilities of scoring the chick (bitch).
A neighbour's prize Shepherd was in heat and the anal fuck owner had her in a Houdiniesque enclosure, safe from the neighbourhood riff-raff * enter the Mutt*. Mutley corners me with some evangelistic style communication which ends with me giving him a pass out for the evening, a hip flask of beam and licence to thrill, he tiptoes off into the night, gold tooth glistening in the full moonlight, and proceeds to work said bitch out of her straightjacket, canine chastity belt and purebred virginity!... cutting a long story short, I get bailed up a short seven weeks later by the breeder who wants to know why his $1,000 bucks a head litter looks more like dingo crosses than wolflike moneybags. My comeback was a nonplussed" evolution is a wonderful thing' or some such drivel. Mutley gave me a sly grin and continued shining his black balls to rival a marine's boot.

It ate anything that came its way! ;)
cosmictraveler 01-25-08, 09:53 AM ...and...:eek:
Well, it wasn't liked by my neighbors so they asked me to rid them of it.
It ate anything that came its way! ;)
I can understand why you had to get rid of it then..
Couldn't you just keep it indoors ?
shorty_37 01-25-08, 09:56 AM You had a pet that was eating other ppls cats and dogs??????? come on...
cosmictraveler 01-25-08, 09:56 AM I can understand why you had to get rid of it then..

A 6 foot long lizard in a 2 bedroom house just doesn't work! I have the little lizards now and they drive me crazy coming inside with me whenever they get the chance. :eek:

Hmm forgive for saying this but you shouldn't have gotten it in the first place then..
I know you are a nice person but if I was the owner of a cat it ate, you'd be in serious trouble..

No kidding.......I think that is the most irresponsible thing I have heard.:bugeye:
Did you not feel guilty or anything?
Spud Emperor 01-25-08, 10:37 AM It ain't survival of the cutest you know.

Let me tell you this.. it wouldn't be survival for Cosmic..
Orleander 01-25-08, 10:40 AM It ain't survival of the cutest you know.
I agree. Its no different than a cat getting out and eating birds or chipmunks that came into its enclosed surroundings. Its not like the lizard was roaming the neaighborhood.

It is different, that lizard was eating pets..
You can't just let your pet eat someone else's pet. People bond with pets.. it hurts when they die.
And I don't like cats eating birds either.. when I see a cat stalking a bird I chase them off..
Orleander 01-25-08, 10:45 AM It was irresponsible of those pet owners to let their pets roam the neighborhood. It wasn't irresponsible of cosmic to let his lizard into his own yard.
It ain't survival of the cutest you know.
This has got nothing to do with nature or evolution, this is about pets.
If you are consistent in this line of reasoning you should be Amish.. lol
shorty_37 01-25-08, 10:45 AM If you KNOW that a pet of yours (whatever dog, lizard, snake) is harming or EATING other neighbours pets, I think a normal person would put an end to that. How can you let that continue knowing that ppl are losing loved pets, due to your irresponsibilty.

Cats on a leash huh ? :rolleyes:

so cosmic is abnormal?? WTHell?? :bugeye:
If you let your pet roam they could get stolen, run over by a car, eaten by a wild animal, etc.
Its THEIR responsibility to protect that oh so loved pet.
Orleander 01-25-08, 10:48 AM Cats on a leash huh ? :rolleyes:
Leash it or keep it in the house.
shorty_37 01-25-08, 10:49 AM What kind of person KNOWINGLY watches their pet eat other peoples, and just lets it continue. No I don't find that normal.
I would like to think most ppl would not find it funny, and joke about it.
so cosmic is abnormal?? WTHell?? :bugeye:

Is was talking about cats..
Anyway.. maybe our situations are different.
My cat could safely roam the neighborhood without getting run over. There are no wild animals here.
People steal pets ? Wtf !?
Leash it or keep it in the house.
A CAT !?
Look, one time is an accident. The second time is irresponsibility..
And I think Cosmic was responsible in getting rid of it, I don't think Cosmic is abnormal.
Orleander 01-25-08, 10:54 AM yeah, we have 3 house cats. We don't let them out.
And where we used to live, a neighbor let his cat out on a leash. He even had a little house. He'd go out there during the day and he'd bring him in at night. Owls were a problem.
And people steal cats and dogs. You can sell them to a lab.
shorty_37 01-25-08, 10:55 AM I once had a "pet" monitor lizard but it kept eating everyones cats and dogs so they made my get rid of it. Their pets came into my yard and were eaten so I'm the one who must remove my pet, what's this country coming to anyway? :shrug: :D
THEY MADE HIM GET RID OF IT...........
Why wouldn't you get rid of it on your own, when you found out it was killing or eating other ppls pets. I mean did he watch his lizard eating them? get a kick out of it? I mean how many pets would you let him eat, if they didn't tell you to get rid of it?

I imagine the police would have something to say about it if he hadn't though..
shorty_37 01-25-08, 10:57 AM :( That's pretty fucked up, poor cats...
I had 2 cats in my life, both of them were able to roam free. I don't beleive in keeping cats stuck in a house their entire life.

Orleander,
do you agree with people that shoot cats when they come into their garden ?
Orleander 01-25-08, 11:01 AM Orleander,

I wonder if a pet owner reported it? If I was that pet owner I would be pretty pissed off!

My monitor lizard did and had a very delicious dinner!:D
Orleander 01-25-08, 11:04 AM Yes or no please..
I'm talking about pets.
How would a person know? Wait til it attacked their kid?
Another question: what if a little kid made it into your garden and was attacked by that lizard ?
cosmictraveler 01-25-08, 11:05 AM Orleander,
do you agree with people that shoot cats when they come into their garden ?
No, they should be used as nourishment source for higher animals on the food chain! ;)

By a cat ? lol

cosmictraveler 01-25-08, 11:06 AM Another question: what if a little kid made it into your garden and was attacked by that lizard ?
Well, no one let their kids out that much when they saw Darwin. :p
shorty_37 01-25-08, 11:07 AM So if a cute cat walked on your property, you should shoot it? because it might attack your kid.....
LMAO
Well, no one let their kids out that much when they saw Darwin. :p
What if they didn't know yet.. ? It's a serious question..
Orleander 01-25-08, 11:09 AM My monitor lizard did and had a very delicious dinner!:D
good. My college roommate had scars on her legs from when a feral cat attacked her when she was 4.
Apparently rabies shots are horrible to go through.
I don't understand why people think cats that are all cute and cuddly at home are the same way when they are roaming the neighborhood.
We had a robin nest in our lilac hedge. Came out one day and all that was left were feathers. If a cat is out and about and its eating other creatures, I don't understand how someoen can complain when it gets eaten.
cosmictraveler 01-25-08, 11:10 AM What if they didn't know yet.. ? It's a serious question..
Daewin was a serious lizard also, he knew when to chew em or when to spew em! :D
Orleander 01-25-08, 11:10 AM By a cat ? lol

you seriously think all cat owners put a collar on their cats? :bugeye:

Cats are not eating other creatures.. maybe a bird or a frog on occasion. They get fed at home..

Darwin could tell the good, the bad and the ugly ones and ate them as he saw them.:eek:

Now THAT is their responsibility.
Orleander,
Yes or No ? (the shooting thing, don't play stupid)
cosmictraveler 01-25-08, 11:13 AM Now THAT is their responsibility.
Darwin enjoyed cats with little bells around their necks but the bells got caught in his throat at times! ;)
shorty_37 01-25-08, 11:13 AM Darwin could tell the good, the bad and the ugly ones and ate them as he saw them.:eek:
So how many pets would you say your lizard ate? I imagine you watched him do this? Did you know some of them were your neighbours pets?
Or is this whole story just BS?

You should have seen my cat when she was young. She used to love killing things, she would kill rabbits that were bigger than her, and she would sit out on the yard and mutilate them. Literally, she would skin them, and spread the organs everywhere. Vicious little fucker. :D:D I remember one time she left an intact rabbit's skin out there with the white fat still attached. She's gone mellow with age though, she rarely does things like that anymore.

Did you watch your cat stalking and killing the rabbits ?

The point is that it was eating other people's pets.

I've lost many cats to accidents, since we live on a main street in a big city. And since we have a large yard and live on the ground floor the cats have the freedom to roam at will.
No one around us has monitor lizards, but one of my cats was killed by a dog, another was run over while sleeping under a car and a third lost an eye in a fight with an unknown creature.
shorty_37 01-25-08, 11:39 AM If they are roaming free? Sure.
Would you let your pet continuously eat other ppls pets, and watch him doing without feeling anything?
Being a pet owner yourself.....you think it would just be fine and dandy if you neighbour let his pet eat your cats one by one?

Those are all accidents.
What if there was one dog in particular that kills cat after cat.. while the owner knows about it ?

What do you propose they should do? Kill the dog?
We could also keep our cats caged up.
I will stop posting in this thread for my own good..
Maybe that a hint.
nevermind
visceral_instinct 01-25-08, 11:47 AM @ Enmos, that cat is so cute!! What's his/her name?
And yes, they were wild ones. No, I didn't actually watch her do it, she used to go wandering across fields/woodlands to find them. I just saw her dragging them in through my back gate. Sometimes they were still alive and she brought them home to strangle, usually though they were dead. The local dogs were afraid of her.
shorty_37 01-25-08, 11:49 AM Oh I would love to see how you guys would really react if this REALLY did happen.
You know that your neighbour sits by and watches his lizard eat ppls dogs and cats.
You sit by and think.....oh well.... Then one day your precious cat or tiny dog that you always keep in the house or in your yard gets out. You have had this pet for yrs and your kids go out looking for it. You later find out that your neighbour watched his lizard eat your cat for lunch. You just tell your kids that poor fluffy is gone no big deal.....and carry on......Come on ppl your reactions are almost as funny as this BS story.

How big are monitor lizards, and how fast can they run?
Just as the title reads, do you?
I currently have 4 tarantulas, a theraphosa leblondi (Goliath Bird Eater), a brachypelma baumgarteni (Mexican Orange Beauty), a pternochilus sp. (Usumbara Baboon) and a Eucratoscelus pachypus (Stout-Leg Baboon). I also have 1 pogona vitticeps (Bearded Dragon) and 1 python regius (Ball Python)...
I'm be too stupid to under tand.
lawks a mercy, I'm surprised I got dressed this mornin
Did I say you were stupid ? :bugeye:
Orleander 01-25-08, 12:06 PM you have a baboon?! Picture picture!!!!!
How big are monitor lizards, and how fast can they run?
Apparently big enough to eat cats and small dogs..
I believe Cosmic said it was 6 feet big..
you have a baboon?! Picture picture!!!!!
They are baboon tarantulas. See Usumbara Baboon (http://images.google.com/images?&q=usambara+baboon&btnG=Search+Images) and Stout-Leg Baboon (http://images.google.com/images?&q=stout+leg+baboon&btnG=Search+Images)
How big are monitor lizards, and how fast can they run?
Depending on the species (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monitor_lizard) they can range from a foot or so up to 10 feet, Varanus komodoensis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Komodo_Dragon). Some can run at a pretty fast rate as well.
do you think cosmic just watched it happen? I think if any of us saw it happening we would try and save the animal it was eating. :shrug:
Yup, I used to "rescue" my cats from wild cats all the time. The guy who lost his eye was a handsome brown tiger kitty and with some care, his wound sealed up very clean. He got used to his changed perspective and went back to being the neighborhood Lothario; though he milked it for all he was worth.
Another time, a cat was injured in a dog fight, he wasn't our cat, but I cajoled him in and cleaned him up, his lower right paw was bitten through and was amputated, but he too recovered and got over his handicap. Took a long time for his wound to heal completely though and he always seemed surprised when he could not scratch behind his ear with it. (He adopted us some, coming to visit once in a few days for a very long time).
I did not try to rescue birds and such from my cats though, I preferred for them to have some ability to look out for themselves, apart from the food they got at home.
cosmictraveler 01-25-08, 12:50 PM do you think cosmic just watched it happen? I think if any of us saw it happening we would try and save the animal it was eating. :shrug:

Till Eulenspiegel 01-25-08, 06:25 PM These two guys really, really love pets, especially dogs.
(AP) - Two former golf club employees are charged with theft and cruelty to animals in the death of a pet dog the owners say was cooked and eaten. An Oahu grand jury indicted Saturnino Palting, 58, and Nelson Domingo, 43, both of Kalihi.
They were accused of stealing a dog owned by Frank Manuma who lost his 8-month-old German shepherd-Labrador mix named Caddy.
Manuma had taken Caddy to the Moanalua Golf Club with him on Dec. 16 and left the dog tied up at an equipment shack when he disappeared. Manuma said police told him the two men slaughtered and ate the pet belonging to him and his wife, Debbie Weil-Manuma.
The charges are both felonies punishable by up to five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
