Self-indulgent pet thread

[existentialist]

I posted this on the house rabbit thread, but it's a really good pic of Tigger, so I thought I'd post it here, too...

(he is the one on the left, with the ears)

seriously, stop it! how about a rat-only pet photo thread?

That wasn't a rat

You stop it, people can post what they bloody want.

this is a rat

This is a hamster

This is a gerbil

Hope that clears things up for you OU. Also I have had cats, dogs, fish as well as hammies as pets. They are all pets. It is not up to you what people keep as pets (we had a snake once) same as it is not up to you what pets people post on the pet thread. Boris will be making a come back on the thread when I get some decent pics of him.

Simple solution, you know there will be rodents on the thread (I have not heard you moan about the cavies on the thread but they are still rodents) if you do not want to see them don't click on the thread.

I agree. There are tons of animals I wouldn't have as pets (cats, for one - I'm allergic to them, and I don't much care for their murderous ways either), but that shouldn't be a reason why people can't post pics of them on this thread.

 

[Puddy_Tat]

indeed.

no to speciesism

 

[Firky]

They just fucking get on with it, don't they?

If I put a walking sock on my dog's head it just wags its tail and sits down

and people can object to it all they want.

Course they can. But I don't think a thread in which everyone's carping about the presence on the thread of animals they don't happen to like is going to end up being a very pleasant thread, nor will it make the carpers particularly popular or welcome. Do you?

i guess so. someone needs to design a rat blocker, so i can view this thread without feeling ill

Or just learn to embrace your inner rat

for Orang Utan: this is neither a rat nor a hamster, but a very strange cat with an unholy love of cigarette filters. i was trying to get her shouting at them and rolling around with them, but instead got a bit of a 'fetch' thing going on, and a big purry snog of my phone at the end.

 

[Steel Icarus]

This is Luna. She's 8 weeks old and has lived with us since Friday

 

[tufty79]

she has just found the jar with them in and knocked/smashed it on the floor

Cats are disgusting animals too, they bury their shit in my garden, well no, maybe it's cat owners that let their cats wander and don't clean up after them

Dogs are disgusting, they lick their arseholes, they have a *thing* for eating human shit, they sometimes eat poo outside, bring it inside in their stomachs then throw it up at your feet.

Horses well, they poo in the road dagnammit

ETC.........

So fucking what.

ETA:

 

[lizzieloo]

Bed invasion, cat style.

ooo dat?

 

[tufty79]

ooo dat?

innit

 

[fredfelt]

That's Luke! He's a bit of an attention seeker. Here he is again this morning - his disproving expression clearly reveals that he's expecting the flash.

 

[lizzieloo]

Yes, Luke is lovely, but I meant Luke's hooman

 

[trabuquera]

??? fred, you might not approve of luke invading the bed (and perhaps molesting its rather lovely occupant ) but it seems a bit harsh to have buried him in the cellar crawlspace as punishment...

Strike day today and loads of people asked if Albert was going to be on the picket again today. Obviously, we couldn't disappoint his fans even if they were all crossing the fucking picket line.

 

[Dovydaitis]

at Albert
at the picket breakers

 

[Firky]

Am I being paranoid or does this look dodgy, like someone farming Gumtree for dogs to use for fighting / puppy farms?

Look away lizzieloo

.

[frogwoman]

yeah that does look bit dodgy.

 

[Firky]

Yeh, I am going to report it to the RSPCA tomorrow I reckon.

 

[colacubes]

Hard life for an old fella

 

[Mumbles274]

What are you doing??




Thanks!!!!





To be carpeted and wrapped with rope over weekend
