ICYMI: I'm a spooooky ghoost...

A handicapped dog named "Pumpkin" is out to throw a scare into people.

Dog ghosts.

Imma scary witch!

Some dad out there likes Caddyshack.

Raven owner suggests that if you hear voices calling to you in the woods, it might just be ravens jerking your chain.

Taking the dogs out for a walk while in a matching costume.

Grooming a dog to look like a spooky skeleton.

Doggo playing with a pumpkin.

Dog dressed as a wind-up elephant toy. He falls over every minute to show that he's all wound down.

Doubters will claim this is not a real ghost.

Another adorable good boy who departed this veil of tears too soon.

Cats own Halloween.

Black cat made his Halloween costume last minute. It works, though.

Sometimes you want to go trick or treating with you (checks notes) cow.

If there were too many ghost dogs, I'm sorry. I searched for 30 minutes to find that video which is usually all over the internet of a dog in a pumpkin patch wearing a ghost costume. It's the best. And it is, for some reason, completely unfindable now.

Boo Awoo👻 She is the spookiest and cutest ghost you will ever see! 👀❤️ #goldenretriever #halloween pic.twitter.com/jSAMzfSIT5

27 Had to put my sweetest best boy kitty down on Monday, "thanks" to a botched surgery my vet recommended to keep him from getting urinary tract blacks again.

Butter turned 4on Sept. 23, and my late husband called him my "momma's boy puppy cat."

Butter was a ginger and believed he was a dog. He loved me and was devoted to me. Followed me all over the house, his little happy orange paws always trotting right next to me.

When I suddenly and inexplicably lost my husband last April, he dealt with me crying, yelling at God, and grieving horribly for the week after everything happened. He slept next to me every single night after.

And now his big brother, my husband's big boy Biscuit, is confused and looking everywhere for his best buddy and little brother.

39 The neighbors and friends had Trumpy fixed today. Finally got the cone on him.

I'm taking care of him. He knows how much I love him and I've taken care of him in the past. I had to let him out though. He's an outdoor cat and wanted out.

In the last 2 days, I have bought for him and his sister Snowflake a beautiful cat tree, a scratching post, food puzzle board, two flapping electronic fish, round circle ball thing with scratching pad, catnip toy on a string, spray catnip and something to put in kitty litter so the want to go inside.

One neighbor has a cat trap out and has driven 5 cats out of town. I can't blame him. That's a lot of cats and he's been patient for a year.

I can't wait until these become indoor cats.

Thanks for letting me vent...

And the pills for Mom aren't helping much. We thought diverticulitis. Pain goes away when she's laying down.

43 We've had thus far 37 visits of kids in batches of 3 and 4. Almost without exception they've been SO polite, all 6, 7 and 8 years old. You could tell that the thank yous weren't forced, but simply what you did when gifted. What a heart warming thing to witness. Proof, I guess, that there's a remarkable amount of young ones being raised properly which gave me hope for future generations.

72 Prepare to be shocked:

LEFT PLANNING ELECTION NIGHT/INAUGURAL VIOLENCE: Demonstration permits examined by former New Left radical trainer Richard Pollock show multiple far-Left and Pro-Palestinian groups moving ahead with plans to take to the streets of the nation’s capital to protest a Trump election victory and inaugural.

“The applicants claim about 15,000 protesters could descend on Washington, D.C. on election night and up to 200,000 anti-Trump protests could arrive leading up to and including Inauguration Day, when the next President is sworn in,” Pollock reports.

One of the organizers, a veteran of the 2017 inaugural disruptions, told a Leftist outlet that for the 2024 events “we want to undermine Trump’s presidency from the get-go. There has been a lot of talk of peaceful transition of power as being a core element in a democracy and we want to reject that entirely and really undermine the peaceful transition.”

83 Ivehad a lot of cats and dogs simultaneously all my life practically. When one passes it’s doubly sad since you feel the others’ sadness as well.

A few years ago we had 2 dogs and got a puppy. About 3-4 weeks later the oldest dog was diagnosed with cancer, and quite advanced. So we put him down. The puppy had become really close with the big guy and when he went bye bye, the puppy was crushed. All that happy puppy energy went away for a couple of days. It was the saddest thing, a puppy moping around.

Condolences Jane D’Oh

“The applicants claim about 15,000 protesters could descend on Washington, D.C. on election night and up to 200,000 anti-Trump protests could arrive leading up to and including Inauguration Day, when the next President is sworn in,” Pollock reports.

One of the organizers, a veteran of the 2017 inaugural disruptions, told a Leftist outlet that for the 2024 events “we want to undermine Trump’s presidency from the get-go. There has been a lot of talk of peaceful transition of power as being a core element in a democracy and we want to reject that entirely and really undermine the peaceful transition.”

It's such a crappy night but Snowflake was put for about 30 minutes and came right back in. Thankfully.

Trumpy is on the porch watchong everything. Cone for 10 to 14 days....ugghhhh.

And Snowflake gets neutered next week. I'm going to have a week with two cats in the house recovering from surgery with cones on.

Beer sales are going up in my area......more.

They are sweet.
And I guess I am now officially a dog and cat person.

94 Butter would sit up and beg, play fetch, whimper like a puppy when he was bored, and growl deeply when he heard a car coming up the driveway, and then accompany me to the door to see who the intruder was and if I was safe.

He was a little guy, and so sweet and fearless. What I allowed him to be put through I can never forgive myself for. Through everything, he looked at me with pure love and adoration. I should never have listened to the vet I have known for over 20 years.

I pray God allows these precious souls into Heaven, and that my darling husband was there to hug him.

My cats have never responded to cat nip spray. Yours might though. I buy loose catnip and you can put a little pile on a small throw rug or blanket/towel and let them go wild. It vacuums up pretty well. If you want to be neater a felt bag holds most of it in.

NO MORE!!

My son and DIL drove me to the vet to say goodbye to my Best Boy in feline form. The vet carried him into the room in a towel, still partially sedated, and Butter growled at him and then saw me and relaxed. I spent I don't know how long stroking his cheeks and telling him how much I loved him. My son said he looked almost as relaxed as if he were at home. And finally I gave permission to have him put to sleep. I made sure my face and touch were the last things on this earth he knew.

188 My cats have never responded to cat nip spray. Yours might though. I buy loose catnip and you can put a little pile on a small throw rug or blanket/towel and let them go wild. It vacuums up pretty well. If you want to be neater a felt bag holds most of it in.

213 Jane, I had to put down both of my cats in a two year period. The first one had a stroke and just couldn't recover. He was 14 at the time. Two years later I had to put down his brother when his kidneys shut down and he refused to eat anymore.

I prayed and prayed I wouldn't have to put either of them down and instead, God had me end both their lives. I was angry and incredibly heartbroken. They were my boys.

But after I realized we get chosen to play this role. We only get them for a short time on this earth and it's an honor to help them pass on to the other side in a loving, final moment. It ripped my heart in two, twice but I refused to let them go alone. So they saw my last. And that gives me comfort.

LEFT PLANNING ELECTION NIGHT/INAUGURAL VIOLENCE: Demonstration permits examined by former New Left radical trainer Richard Pollock show multiple far-Left and Pro-Palestinian groups moving ahead with plans to take to the streets of the nation’s capital to protest a Trump election victory and inaugural.

“The applicants claim about 15,000 protesters could descend on Washington, D.C. on election night and up to 200,000 anti-Trump protests could arrive leading up to and including Inauguration Day, when the next President is sworn in,” Pollock reports.

One of the organizers, a veteran of the 2017 inaugural disruptions, told a Leftist outlet that for the 2024 events “we want to undermine Trump’s presidency from the get-go. There has been a lot of talk of peaceful transition of power as being a core element in a democracy and we want to reject that entirely and really undermine the peaceful transition.”

Sooner or later this crap will need to be stopped by those who have had enough.

I couldn't bear to bury him in the kitty graveyard beside the house, where a wild animal attempted to dig up the last kitty we lost, who was 16. So I'm having Butter cremated. In the past, id let the other kitty sniff the body of his or her sibling so they'd know. It didn't always work out well.

When my husband died, it took his Best Boy kitty Biscuit a long time to accept that Dad wasn't coming home. But he had me and his playful companion Butter to help him deal. Now I'm all he has, and I'm sorry, but I cannot adopt another kitty. I insisted to my husband I didn't want any more after we put down the 16 year old girl. I'm going to have to do my best to focus on my husband's sweet boy.

281 When my husband died, it took his Best Boy kitty Biscuit a long time to accept that Dad wasn't coming home. But he had me and his playful companion Butter to help him deal. Now I'm all he has, and I'm sorry, but I cannot adopt another kitty. I insisted to my husband I didn't want any more after we put down the 16 year old girl. I'm going to have to do my best to focus on my husband's sweet boy.

That's something only you can decide. I will say this: my mom didn't think she wanted another cat after her last one died, but she was eventually prevailed upon to take another in, and I think she's very glad she did. The cat's a sweetheart, and it's helped her to avoid getting lonely.

284 I once had a ghost cat haunt my lap.
I had an old neutered tom, who ruled the house with an iron paw. Whenever I sat in my recliner, he would immediately claim my lap and sleep. He allowed the other cats to distribute themselves elsewhere across my body, but my lap belonged to him. After a few years, he passed, but the remaining cats would refuse to sleep on my lap. I think they still saw his ghost.
I'm currently catless, so for all I know, he is still there.

Heard from the spouse that with the extra kids this year (usually it's 30-40 - best before this year was 50), some home owners ran short of candy, so were finding anything good in the house. Of course, my youngest took it (my 2nd youngest told him no worries, so the guy could still have some of his own soda)...

299 Jane, I'm so sorry about your sweet fur baby.

I just found out that a friend's 21 year old cat is finally using up her last life, and will pass soon. They have been buds forever and she's heartbroken. This is the friend that when I was out visiting her, my own sweet cat passed. I was on a public bus at the time, and just broke down and cried. I could not have handled it without this friend; she put together a memorial service that eve to remember her, very sweet. Trying to figure out how to do right by her now our positions are reversed.

I saw on Etsy that people will make jewelry with etchings of your pet's picture on it. I might do that.

I'm moving them as fast as possible to indoor cats. A neighbor set out cat traps. I can't blame the guy. He was patient for over a year. He brought 5 out of town. We thought Snowflake was one yesterday but she showed up! I was so happy.

I bought tons of cat stuff, beautiful cat tree, scratching posts, feeding toys, tons of stuff. They are going outside but staying around our house.

Trumpy was fixed today. Snowflake will be neutered next week. Two cats with cones and I'll be taking care of them.

355 PDT said he would consider pardoning hunter, didn’t say he would. Good grief, it’s another troll on the dems by our future president. And to the other idiot who said that PDT didn’t pardon the J6ers, they were sentenced after he left office.

357 There is an feral orange tabby, we named Butterscotch, that we have been feeding for the past year or so. She's pregnant now, so we've sort of converted the bottom of one of those big wooden swing sets with a slide and tower into a house. We laid down cardboard, covered it with straw then a comfort and finally some fleece. I also covered the windows on the west and south with cardboard.

She seems to like it. It is still too exposed though, so we have a heated cat house on order that we will install on top of the existing padding.

360 Stateless,
I'd keep Trumpy in the house while he has the cone. He's not at his best to outrun a predator with it on and it hampers his peripheral vision.

Lucy was feral when we got her from the pound. She was in and out for a couple years, then we moved to an area where there's many more coyotes and raccoons. So, she became an indoor only kitty. She's fine. If I had my own house, I'd build her an enclosed catio.

She's adjusted fine to being indoors only.

Miserable and lonely and trying to hide it is a terrible way to go through life. It will never change if you blame everyone else for your situation.

Trump is well-known for having a spine of iron, so I suppose he’s free to spitball like this. (If any other Republican said it he’d be called a RINO squish.)

It’s irrelevant, though: Trump won’t be President. And by saying this he gave cover to Joe or Harris to pardon Hunter, which is what they’ll do.

You don’t need a conviction to pardon someone. Jimmy Carter, that rat bastard peanut farmer, pardoned all the draft dodgers. Trump knows this, he just didn’t care enough to help his biggest fans.

Thanks. I'll try but he's still an outdoor cat and would be in 12 hours at most.

I'm in Canada. The weather's turning shitty. And he stays on our front porch a lot of the time.

I'm just going to do the best I can.

Outdoor cats have a life expectancy of 2 to 5 years. Indoor about 15. So I'm doing everything I can to sell indoors.

Come on Canadian winter....

368 >>>You don’t need a conviction to pardon someone.

Oh, right, I forgot the most well-known Presidential pardon in history: when Ford pardoned Nixon. No conviction there. I guess Trump never heard about that one?

The point of the J6 psyop was to make an example of Trump’s most ardent supporters and anyone who cared to protest the steal. It largely worked.

'BAMA, what was the stumble out the gate? I can't even remember. The cat lady comment getting dredged up from the past? Or not pushing back against the "weird" attacks fast enough?

The couch stuff wasn't a stumble. The left literally made that up. The Trump team what they needed to do, simply ignore it.

But yeah he be a rock star. Loving the motley crew Trump has put together!

371 “We all saw this a mile away,” they write, so why didn’t Trump? Why didn’t he pardon all of his supporters who attended his rally?

But the fact is, we didn’t see this a mile away. We certainly didn’t see it less than two weeks away, which is what would have been necessary for a blanket pardon between January 6 and January 20. And it would have had to have been a big blanket. It’s not like there were signups for people attending his rally.

Presidents have pardoned named individuals for unspecified crimes (President Ford, pardoning Richard Nixon). Presidents have pardoned specific groups for specified crimes (President Carter, pardoning people who avoided the draft by moving to Canada).

But how do you pardon unspecified groups for unspecified crimes? This sounds like a very dangerous trap…

(Quoting myself; see nic.)

That’s just excuse-making. Issue the pardon, let the courts fight over it. Even if it gets shot down, at least you *tried*.

What would Obama have done for his people? Why do we expect less of our side?

“We have to play by the rules because we’re Republicans.” Naw.

>>>”Yes, it looks obvious now that the Democrats were planning on third-world dictator-style show trials. But it certainly didn’t occur to me that that’s where this was headed until well after January 20, and it didn’t seem to occur to anyone else, even the people saying stuff like this, that I can see.”

I said after the 2012 election that Soviet show trials were coming to America within a decade. People like you said I was overreacting and that the Constitution would protect us.

Get outta here with this “nobody could have known” business.

I don’t have a blog. I made used to comment here, at Instapundit and on 4chan from 2009-2015 or so.

In 2014 I fell down a rabbit hole about U.S. biolabs in Ukraine and Georgia (the country) and gain-of-function research on coronaviruses. During the “obola “ pandemic that year I read up a lot on pandemic planning. I told people the Constitution was going to be overturned by emergency medical directives during an bio-engineered pandemic.

Again, people with major normalcy bias said I was a conspiracy theorist. Oh well.

I keep a low profile online these days. I used to work in AI. Soon they’ll be able to associate most of what you’ve written-even anonymously-back to your real identity. That’s the whole goal of this “disinformation” push. It’s not merely censorship, it’s using machine learning to deanonymize past activities online.
