She Wolf Loc: Currently Georgia

Our cat named by my grand daughter, Mr Kitty, came out of the forest. He calmly walked through my house inspecting each room, decided to rest on my sofa. He meowed to go out and later meowed to come back in. That was 10 years ago. He apparently decided if we were properly trained he could live with us.

It did not take him long to train the people in the house. The dog took a little longer and the iguana is a slow learner.

Hmmm..Archie obtained a d o g for you. You have to... (show quote)

I did not obtain her a dog. She obtained US a dog!! After 2 weeks of whining I just finally gave in.
As for all the rest:
We live in the country, and have a fenced yard. So no dog walking around here. They just go outside.
The fish bowl needs cleaning once a week. A 15 minute operation if you don't mess around.
As for feeding:
Fish, drop a few flakes in, put the lid back on. 15 second operation.
Horse, a can of grain, and a flake of alfalfa, fill the water tank. Maybe 10 minutes.
The dogs....I will just say that she could build me at least 3 Dagwood sammiches in the time it takes to 'feed' them!!

They are all good, spoilt rotten boys and girl(s)!!
Not sure about Norbert. How do you tell the g****r of a goldfish??
And.....what can you train a cat to do besides eat, drink, and crap in a sandbox??

Our cats respond to voice commands. They, truly and actually, growl if anything enters our yard. They sit quietly in our laps purring in happiness.

MrsB deserves another warm loving pet, besides the fair won stuffed animal.

One of the two cats we used to have came when we called him, went in his pen when we told him to and loved having a bath and being brushed. The other one acted like a cat.

She wants another horse!!
I keep telling her to settle down because our peanut butter/jelly bill is too high as it is!!
Yes!!!! She makes PBJS for Buster!! :roll: :roll: She claims he prefers grape jelly. How would she know? :?:
1 rescue at a time... We have to get this skinny dog fed back up before we can move on!!
BTW, Buster DOES prefer WHEAT bread!! :twisted: :mrgreen:
I know this because that is all we buy!! :lol: :lol: :XD: :hunf:

I'm a dog person myself, but I seem to see a lot of cat people on OPP, so thought this picture might be a good reminder as colder weather sets in.

And I found another creature about which we must reman aware!

Looking at the picture, I can only speculate that the cow resting on the Beemer is a city cow. We teach em a little different here in the country! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Are you kidding? In my book, anyone who can successfully give a cat a bath is to be RESPECTED!! :thumbup: :thumbup:

It really is not that difficult. Ours are vaccuumed twice a week. They actually enjoy it.

Z E R O good thoughts for putting a feline in a pen.

Maybe we should try it with you. Put MrsB on. She and I can talk about it. :idea: :twisted: :mrgreen: :thumbup:
