A Little of This. A Little of That.

Border Collies. Cute, energetic, a Herding Breed. One is also trying to save endangered birds.

Ajax is a highly-trained border collie who helps locate New Zealand’s endangered kea. This elusive alpine parrot lives in some of the most remote regions of the country’s South Island. Together with Corey, his human sidekick, Ajax searches for kea nests to help monitor the population of the species. Director Michael Weatherall highlights the conservation duo and their efforts to save the world's only mountain parrot.

You're here. So obviously you are somewhat of an animal person. Dog person? Cat person? For example I can't imagine life without a dog. I've had dog(s) longer than I haven't had them.

But we all know someone who isn't an animal person. Why is that?


Our family supports The Blue. Do you?

Hello there,

Attached is a photo of Bender, a deer head chihuahua who previously appeared in the Pet Thread, but it's been a while. As you can see, Bender enjoys some "adult time" with his people after hours, once the little ones have gone off to bed. Bender is a true Pet Moron!

Cheers,
Mimi and Bender :-)

I believe I saw you two at the Olive Bar last night. Party animals!!!!! Cute photo.

The first one is Havelock Vetinari Hoyt when we found him. We already had (at the time) four cats, and we THOUGHT we were full up. Then we took the kids mini-golfing. Apparently this was a bad idea. We found this little kitten covered in grease (from the ginger smell he was living from the dumpster of the Vietnamese restaurant next door) with wounds on his face and a broken tail. People were beating him with clubs for chasing balls, because people suck. He was still playing and trying to be friendly. We called him over, brought him home, washed him four times, including with Dawn and finally just rubbed corn starch on his fur and brushed it out.

Second picture is him, ten years later, as the acknowledged Lord of the Hoyt household and my husband's boss. -Sarah

What a happy ending of a story for this cat. Looks like life has tough since leaving the "rough".

Ralph was another "found me" dog. I was able to place him with my aunt in east TN. She has fed him to this degree. This dog bed belonged to a visiting mini dachshund.. isn't he ridiculous? He is truly a hoot and gives his adopted folks at least one laugh a day. - Pam

Hey, all,

Wolfus Aurelius here. Earlier the Pet Thread said we didn't have to limit ourselves to current pets. So, two RIPs:

The blazing red tabby with white was Arizona, who my then-wife and I suspected might be part Maine Coon. Adopted from an SPCA in June of 1983, he was a tiny but fuzzy kitten with absolute confidence that the world revolved around him. He grew to be 14 not-fat pounds, longhaired, touchy around male strangers, fine with female ones, and lived to be 16.5 years old. (His ashes are up in Winter Park, CO. Clearly he thought he should have been a bobcat, but the cat factory screwed up.) At the Denver Dumb Friends League, I had a plaque mounted: "I handled quarters and rations, you handled the rest."

The other, who looks rather like an angel-food cake with eyes, was Linda's Angelique. In 2003 she trotted up to me in an empty lot as I was washing my car, and jumped right into the car with me. Clearly she was someone's pet and a purebred (a Siberian, we think). We advertised, but got no response, so she became Linda's. Eventually Angelique realized we liked her, so she revealed her real personality: She would sit in your lap, but if you shifted an inch, she growled -- and then didn't leave your lap. A beautiful beast who (fortunately) liked other cats and always hopped right into her carrier. She passed away in her sleep, almost 10 years to the day after she found me.


They are more than pets. They are members of the family!


*****

Thank you for the submissions Morons. Always a fine looking group. If you have something you wish to share, please submit to petmorons at gmail. Please include your nic, your pet's name and a little story behind the photo. We also take animal news tips, stories, videos, etc.

Have a great week!!!

When a friend had to euthanize his beagle (huge "benign" tumor in her tummy --she could hardly eat), he and his family took her to do what she loved: splashing in the Red River, frolicking in the park. Such a sweet, innocent animal . . . shame she had to go as soon as she did (she was only six years old).

9 What a sweet story about the kitty found at miniature golf.

We live a few miles out from town and people are bad about dumping their pets out here. That's how we got Tom. He had to have been someone's pet because when we got him he was already neutered.
He is such a good cat, I cannot imagine throwing him away.

20 I think my Lexi is more of a kitten, she goes with me everywhere including the bathroom & comes in the bathroom after I take a shower & I leave door 1/4 open when my roommate is not home. She goes everywhere with me. Once in a great while she will be in a deep sleep and won't realize I am not there, but she makes up for it.

She's a bit rough & has scratched me hard playing with my hands. I have to get her claws cut. I know she loves mei because she is everywhere I go.

22 There was a kitten for adoption in the paper this week, and I came really close to seeing about adopting her.

Four months old, shelter believes she's part Norwegian Forest Cat and part Russian Blue. Comes when called, loves people and being held, gets along with other cats, and even dogs.

Yet I hesitate to bring any kind of stress to our 16 y.o. kitteh's life.

Conversely, it's dangerous to think cats can eat dogfood for prolonged periods - no taurine.

29 ALH,
Obviously someone threw Lexi away because she knows to go to the littler box & has since the day we got on October 14.
The adoption agency lied about her, said they thought she may have been pregnant & I looked at 4-5 pages of Vet notes and she was pregnant. They should have left it out.

Well, that's true of all dogs, but beagles are in a chow-crazy league of their own and really put on the fat.

My brother had a cute little beagle.
Cute...and little. Then bro had to go to Kuwait for 6 months.
Came back and the dang pup looked like a basketball.

37 Beagles are good rabbit dogs, although a friend used his to run deer. If they are cooped up all the time and/ or don't have a big yard to run around in, they will get fat and lazy.

Oh, good.
Kicking him out of the WS for something so small is a bit much. But at this point I'm glad to see discipline enforced in sports.

Being Cuban and a fairly recent arrival, Gurriel probably hasn't grokked all the nuances of the American crime of 'racism.' So I'd cut him some slack.
Darvish was certainly very gracious and forgiving.

70 Another excellent pet thread! Thank you, Mis!! Got a bunch of hilarious pics but have not submitted any so will simply report. Zoey and Cecil are thrilled with their new home. Perhaps less so than prior to this week when it was in the 70s and they were enjoying the screen porch but they seem quite pleased. Rearranged the living room for the 4th time in 24 hours today and it's pretty darn close. Unpacked a metric shit-ton of art and that is making me very happy, although I will not put holes in the walls until I'm 100 percent sure about everything. And, dang, every single thing I brought with me from Hell Lay is absolutely filthy (me, a clean freak) and needs major cleaning. Gonna do some of that in front of the WS game.

Also, the pest population rose in his absence. Hannah does not pull her weight.

Conversely, there are no more gifts of squirrel, chipmunk, mouse, and mole carcasses in the laundry room (cat door there). Hannah accounts for about one mouse a month. We could use a good hunter here.

Gurriel was a big star on the Cuban national team for years. They are very anti-Japanese, the same way BoSox fans are very anti-Yankee. They will diss the Japanese with jibes that Americans would find unacceptable.

102 A couple weeks ago I mentioned a cat that took up residence on our porch and adopted us. Was soliciting name suggestions. The Horde as always had many great ideas and we ended up taking the one of letting the GS ( six years old) name her. She is officially "Miss Cute Face" but we are calling her "Cutie Pie". My other two cats are calling her "interloper".

Miss Cute Face has shown no interest at all in going back outside. Hasn't got within 15 feet of the front door and has been happy just enjoying 4 rooms and the basement. Been here three weeks and still doesn't know there's an upstairs. But she does know that my husband's chest is a nice place to sit.

I just saw this: Two NYPD narcotics division cops have been charged with rape of a 18 yr old girl they arrested for smoking pot.

They had made her strip for a search and had put her in handcuffs. The rape kit thing proved the cops DNA was on/in her.

They claim it was consensual. She says it was a let us bang you and we'll let you go thing.

"Hopefully Gurriel learns from the entire situation and, at the very least, he doesn't do anything like this again regardless of whether he is punished for it or not.

The quality of his apology, which is lukewarm at best and in which he fails to actually come to terms with what he did, isn't a great first step. But that just means he has some more growing to do from here on out."

117 We went to a pet Halloween gathering at a local nursery today. We just wanted to get Prince the rescue dog used to other dogs but he was in costume as a bumble bee. He had no problem with the outfit. After all, it meant he was getting attention, not something he lacks but always wants more.

Big success! He got to meet and greet and sniff over a dozen other dogs. And the others reciprocated with enthusiasm. There was Superman, a clown, one had a birthday today and was decorated with 'presents', balloons and streamers, and a pair of dark and light colored mutts dressed as yin and yang, and one dressed as a race horse with a little jockey on him. But the hit was a little tiny Yorkie, maybe 3 pounds, dressed as a mermaid. Her assistant/owner had her on a leash that looked like a fishing pole. They were all well behaved and adorable.

Prince has been sleeping off the adventure for most of the afternoon.

Four months old, shelter believes she's part Norwegian Forest Cat
and part Russian Blue. Comes when called, loves people and being held,
gets along with other cats, and even dogs.


Jane, I know I'm late, but she sounds wonderful. She can help you thru the future. Who knows, she may help 'protect' the feline matriarch from the vicious doggeh visitor!

FSU's season is toast but I can still enjoy Florida losing.

166 Breccia (my Malinois) just got back from cutting the grass. I cut and she is on over watch. Except our cats, no one or animal enters the yard without a challenge.

I see we have another fine set of pet Morons today.

167 Not about pets-but about deer-and it made me laugh:

That's too bad. God thinks well of you. :^) Remember, don't confuse life with God.

169 This is kind of silly, but it made me laugh too. Guy makes himself 'cone of shame" so that his cat isn't embarrassed.

172 Thanks for the beagle info! I thought something was seriously wrong with my wild child beagle mix, who eats anything that will fit in his mouth.

173 Duke Lowell:
A kitten escaped a Vietnamese restaurant? Huh.

LOL. I see you think like my older son, who wanted to call him Chat Main and who when visiting the golf course next sniffed the air and said, "I see Havelock's brothers and sisters smell exceptionally tasty tonight.

174 121 - Christopher: Come cold weather, I always think of the book The Door Into Summer. No matter how many inches of snow on the ground or how many degrees below freezing, cats and dogs all believe that the very next time they go out, the sun will be shining, the sky will be blue, the grass will be green, and the temperature will be just perfect for a pleasant snooze in the flower bed.

175 Just put down our beautiful rescue, Mixer, a few weeks back. Pecos, our longhaired Chihuahua who used Mixer as his role model (to our horror and dismay), still runs the acreage searching for him. We're contemplating another pup to provide some safety in numbers due to the many flying and walking predators in the area. Pecos is bite sized.
