Being Geeks, it's likely our only friends are pets! Got a photo of yours? I have.

This is my cat undergoing one of his favorate poses. Look you can count each and every one of his toes!

His name is... err... well actually he doesn't have one, possibily it's "food" he always runs to be when I call that word, but it's not actually his name. He was a stray who just turned up 2 years ago, and never left. At the time he was a kitten small enough to curl up in my hand. Never did find out where he escaped from. I think he might have been born out in the wild, there's a number of wild cats around here.

I truly hope that was a joke...

Anyway, my dog:

Yes it was a joke, except in my case.

I like the dog and parrot. Glad you don't live next to me, there's something for my cat to try and eat, and something to try and eat my cat. :-p

Last photo I promise. But this is the after shot when he realises I've got a camera.

Is it just me or does that tabby cat look really, really pissed off?

Just joking, both look fine healthy animals, how did you get them to pose next to each other like that?

A few months ago he grew too big for his aquarium so I went and released him into a public pond where he could be with others of his kind.
Name: Rex.

Indeed. If I can make my cats gain control of Nintendo shares, posing them is quite simple.

We used to have a dog, a beautiful dog called Jessie, She died in 2002 or 2003? Can't remember. She was a real good family dog! And she understood Italian!

Tried it, but cats are too independant to be enslaved I'm afraid, should have gone for monkeys, but yeah you learn from your own idioticness

I doubt you win, or ever will.

Being a cat lover doesn't mean having a billion cats living with you who don't really give a crap. Both my cats are close to me. Anyone can live on a farm/rural area and have 20+ cats (I know, because I did) and let them wander all over the place.

I have a Labrador and a Bearded Dragon. The Lab is a whole load of fun, but the Bearded Dragon is not really tame yet so he hisses and tries to bite when I go to pick him up.

Not a picture of my Bearded Dradgon, but they all pretty much look the same.

They do a give a crap, its a hell of a job caring for them, but they're more caring then any other cats I've seen other people own, we care for them fully from practically from birth which makes them really friendly and affectionate, we get compliments of kittens we give away, the reason we have so many is because they are just awesome cats, Plus the farm area is great for them, as they don't just sit around the house all day like lemons, I'm sure your cats are awesome too, but just because I have so many, doesn't mean they are neglected. And dude I'm not the cat lady from the Simpsons .

Indeed. Just because I live in a large city and can't afford to spam my house with dozens of cats doesn't mean I don't like them as much as you.

I know, I was only joking about that bit, not as if I'm a stuck up pig who thinks I'm better than everyone, I'm a stuck up pig who KNOWS he's better than everyone But yeah I wouldn't live in the city with so many cats, heck not even in town, looking at the bad drivers there are in town.

chilly dog, im going to teach you something about bearded dragons, i had heaps as a kid running around my house.
this works on a lot of lizards, but not blue tongues for some reason.

roll him on his back and rub his tummy gently, you will put him into a trance and he will just lie there motionless. its freaky but cool! the more you do this less he will find you a threat.

do you feed him live food?


btw our family cat is always cranky, it was an orphan on a building site.
its 18 years old in this post, looking great for her age. perhaps its the name my brother gave it to her.


spud!
