Ace of Spades Pet Thread [Mis. Hum.]

become-the-squirrel.jpg


Can you believe another week has passed? Well, it has. It is time for The Ace of Spades Pet Thread. The home of all things pet related. Grab a T-R-E-A-T and enjoy.

Please check the politics at the door.

A Little of This. A Little of That.


Poor doggeh, at the wrong place at the wrong time.


Playmates.


Some things to do with your dogs before summer ends.

Identical twin dogs.


Legos, what can't they do?


Ok, how many of you sleep with your pet(s)? I plead guilty but I draw the line at 3.

MEET THE PETMORONS

Pat, a lurker, submitted this photo of Lady & Abby. They are Kerry Blue Terriers. I thought they look like Slash from GNR without the top hat. Cute dogs. Thanks for sharing.


zz Karate mom.jpg

'Ette Karate mom shared this photo of Calvin & Cecilia with us. Calvin hunts rodents when out and about. Cecilia likes to tangles with skunks. That's not a good thing.

This photo came in from the Cincinnati area. There was no nic. So I won't reveal the name of the person. However, you can say hello to Harry & Perry. Patriotric and book smart cats.


zz Gidget.jpg

Say hello to Gidget. She's a mix-breed owned by CrotchetyOldJarHead. I have a feeling that's not who is holding Gidget.


zz buckiv.jpg

A fine looking German Shepherd Dog by the name of Cooper. His master Buck IV claims he's an intelligent dog.


zz sherry mcevil .jpg

Studies have shown poodles to be a smart breed of dog. Sherry McEvil's poodle Etta Mae has a boatload of toys and knows them each by their name. Say hello to Etta and her toy, Louie Lizard.


zz danager girl .jpg

DangerGirl's Siamese Cat Meatball is lucky to have lived to 5 years after sitting on this batch of biscuits. Ah forgive and forget?

zzmara jade.jpg

Our final PetMoron is Mara Jade. She belongs to husband & wife lurkers Tim & Amanda. Mara likes the magical rainbow stick. Thank you for lurking and sharing your pet with us. C'mon out of the shadows. We don't bite-much.

I'm not even sure that word is safe to spell around here.
Doggeh knows the word too well. If I even spell it out loud, he goes batshit berzerker.
I wouldn't doubt that the little stinker can read it, too.

And, hello all.

I'm not much of a cat fancier, but that's a fine looking pair of bookends, anonymous patriotic Moron.

12 Great looking group again this week!

WeaselCat v1 is something of a puker. The other morning she had thrown up a little in the bedroom next to a pair of shoes I wear to work. I cleaned it up and went about my day. When I got home from work and was changing clothes I realized my sock was stuck to the inside of my right shoe and I had been standing in cat puke all day.

Eeewwwwwww.

16 Beautiful puppehs and kittehs.

My brother's late golden retriever learned what walk meant and went ballistic when he heard it so they started spelling the word. By after a while he figured out what W-A-L-K meant too. They had to say "stroll" or amble" or "hike" etc..

18 The Horde has excellent taste in its animal companions, that I can say.

Also, I love the Lego kitty story! I love any story where humans are helping animals that way, it shows a combination of regard for life and ingenuity that really reflects people at their best. Though I draw the line the day someone makes a winged exoskeleton for a paralyzed rattlesnake...

My brother's corgi is like that. Worse actually, I've seen occasions when he was dogsitting when it was clear that the corgi was putting the other canines up to hijinks. A right instigator, he is.

=====

Dad grabbed me one afternoon and said 'look'; Mom was laughing like a loon and so I looked out into the garden. Shepherd very carefully and delicately snipped off a tomato with her front teeth (the leaves and stems are itchy), casually dropped it into the middle of the yard, played on the sides of the yard a while, and then very dramatically discovered the fallen fruit. Now I really do not recall a single dog I have never known who likes or wants tomatoes, but the playacting was worth the price of a few prize tomatoes.

35 Cecilia likes to tangles with skunks. That's not a good thing.

We have an old lazy dog who has the thickest fur. Housemate's dog, and she only give her a haircut every two years. This is a dog who lies down in the snow and doesn't notice.

Now, I like the smell of skunk. If one goes off a mile away it's a light musky scent and it reminds you that nature is out there. I don't find it unpleasant.

Well Kahlua (that's the fat furry dog) got hit point blank with skunk juice.

Pure skunk juice is not a musky scent of nature. It's friggin chemical warfare. Twelve rounds of shampoo and tomato juice and my eyes were still burning and the dog had to stay on the porch for a week.

I have an internet friend whose pit bull dog LOVES tomatoes, and also peaches and not only will steal both from the plant or tree but taught their other dogs how to get into the garden and pick tomatoes. I only have to worry about horses eating garden over the fence if I even grew one anymore.

48 I really think dogs (and cats) only eat stuff like tomatoes and apples because we like them so much. My Rottie always ate the kids' apple cores. Old methLab ate carrot sticks. On their own, I don't think they would very often and I have found a lot of spat-out pickles around the house even though they were begging for the burger. It was and is funny the big dramatic productions they make out of eating our own treats -- even if they don't like them very much.

49 Legos, what can't they do?

There's a website I go to with lots of metric and French-minded. They go nuts if you call them Legos. "They are called Lego" You also have to include a haughty little *sniff*, I think, to underline your contempt.

you guys reminded me of one of our long ago sheep, i named baby girl. my mom had a habit of taking in random sheep that her friends didn't want. at first i was, "sheep!?!" but they're easy keepers and kept the star thistle down which was good.

baby girl was really tiny and i loved her. she'd eat anything i fed her. watermelon rinds, tomatoes, bananas.

65 One of my cats spends all night curled up in the crook of my arm, every night. Another visits me and my wife for a while before settling in at my wife's feet. The third, the Siamese, picks and chooses his spots, last night he slept on top of the cat at my wife's feet, then spent the morning hours behind my head, licking my hair. The dog comes into the bedroom, circles the bed a couple times to make sure we're all settled and then curls up in the hall right outside the door.

79 I *cannot* take an afternoon nap without the critters insisting on taking part. The weird thing is that the cat always crawls under the light cotton blanket, half-curls up with front paws and head on my chest. He does this at no other time. Ever.

The dog curls up by left shoulder, and that's that. I'm hemmed in. I'm beginning to wonder if it is planned. Mrs. Hammer swears that she has caught them off in a corner of the house plotting together.

Damned tough call. The usual advice is adopt an older animal from a shelter. Is that good advice? I don't know.

That's a tough one, knowing your current cat is getting older. However, barring some catastrophic accident how is your general health because it is not unusual for people to live well into their 80's and 90's. If it is pretty good now I would encourage you to get another cat as there are so many that need homes and love.

Tough question. Kittys tend to get attached to homes. And they may not be very flexible past youth. But I keep thinking of a comment on one thread where the writer formed a friendship with a neighbor cat, who stayed part-time with her.

98 For years I refused to let the pets sleep in our bed. Then the wife brought home a tiny yorkie-Chihuahua she found at an abandoned nursery. Ugly dog that grew on you.

The first night in the house the wife snuck the dog into bed. I awoke about 2 am with the little guy snuggling into my chest. Working long hours on top of a long commute, I didn't have the energy to put him back in his bed.

Long story short he ended up sleeping in the bed thereafter. He probably saved our marriage and was the bravest dog I've know. I could spend the rest of the day talking about Tralfaz.

Breccia sleeps on the bed during the day. We toss a old sheet on top of the quilt so she doesn't shed on it.

99 Oldgeezer, what I hear often from rescue folks is that it is hard for them to place older cats or dogs. You might have to worry about outliving a kitten but at worst you'd give an older cat a good stretch of a proper home vs just shelter for the rest of its days.

So unless you and missus geezer are feeling like you want to be done with pets I think it would be a good deed to adopt again.

oldgeezer, there is a wonderful children's book series called Mr. Putter and Tabby, by Cynthia Rylant. It is about an older gentleman who gets lonely, so he goes to the pound to adopt a pet. He winds up adopting an old tabby cat who is so happy to be in a home. They have marvelous but gentle adventures together.

I am deathly allergic to cats, but that book series (which my son LOVED, so we had them all) always made me think that an older cat would be a nice pet for an older pet owner.

So of course I realize that has nothing to do with real life, but it made me think of when my son was a little boy, which is always nice to remember.

112 Here's something that just popped up:
Are dogs really colorblind?

Tucker & I are sitting in the shade out in the front yard, enjoying what's left of the day. He knows my Mom's old Hyundai Santa Fe (gold in color) and will go nuts when he sees it turning the corner 750 ft away.

Just now, a silver Santa Fe came down the street - he perked up, but didn't move. Just watched it, gave me a puzzled look, then watched it drive by.
I think he could tell the difference in color. Maybe a different sound? (Exhaust?)

Addendum to my 1987 paper. I have belatedly discovered that turtles do not, in fact, love didgeridoo music. It's just that, being turtles, they are very slow at manifesting the homicidal fury to which they are driven by didgeridoo music. Very, very slow, indeed. I would venture to explain how I learned this, but...aaaack! thud.

I let my Dane sleep on my bed for naps but not overnight. She fell asleep for the night early one night while I was up late, and I was too tired to move her. Worst night's sleep ever! She is a total bed hog. Even worse, she kept stretching and kicking me all night. Dane's are leaners so every time I would move a little to leave some space btwn is. she would fill in the gap so she could lean against me. She took up 3/4's of the bed while I was pushed all the way at the very edge. I'm never doing that again.

130 Lovely, bittersweet pet thread.
My Romeo kitty is gone.
He passed away Thursday, here at home, in my arms. Was so very hard, but I know it was best thing. He kept declining a little each day but by Wednesday night He was in such pain, he'd stopped purring and could only moan & whimper. He was so ready to go that Dr. didn't even need to administer the kill shot, he passed shortly after only the sedative.
It was the greatest gift of love I could give him.
Now trying to teach my neurologically challenged Rosie kitty to sit with me on the couch, keeping the cancer at bay. Because I need a feline guardian, you know. But nobody will be as vigilant as Romeo. I feel so vulnerable. With a huge, gaping hole in my heart.
So, I'm a mess. Big time. Gonna go away for a while.
Hug your babies. Please remember us in your prayers.

Heh.
Actually, I've never seen a skunk here on my little acre.
But the little hunter did get another possum a few nights ago. Damn thing had to be 15 lbs. I heard squeals, ran out back with a flash, and saw him shaking that thing like a ragdoll.

This makes number 4 or 5 I think. + one grackle that he caught out of the air.
That has earned him his title of Awesomest Dog In The World.

*side note: he is now about 99% trained on that new trick.
