your cat looks mad in this picture lol. I have a cat I adopted from the SPCA 2 years ago as a kitten and a 8 month old poodle terrier puppy. I would post a picture but have no clue on how to post them on here so they are in my profile

This was my beautiful kitty Jade. She went missing about a month after I took this pic... I believe a coyote ate her. :(

I know how you feel, Pipp. I had a beloved dachshund mix that got trampled by a cow. :,( I was there too. Sad times.

I'm sorry Pipp, she was a very pretty little cat. Years ago I had a cat go missing and I blame the coyotes too :(

I had my cat, the one who climbed to my shoulder, but that is not to say: It´s enough!

I won´t say CC is enough, although I have liked some people here (I won´t say who).

I won´t say: "Jesus loves me", because it is not a direct (or personal) relationship I need, because I know Him by written letters (the Bible) and that is not a real "relationship", an interactive one I can boast or be proud of.

I know I "love" my mother, but not the way I could cuddle her (or she me) and I know she loves me (she was crying, worried and shedding tears because she thought I was about to die these passed days) the way she can (same as I can).

Loneliness depends on me, depends on others; but basically depends on my faults, my lack, my shortage and many things I LACK (I made more wrong decisions I am aware of).

I´m not childless! But I vasectomized to avoid them again.

I divorced, because I made a wrong decision marrying the wrong person (and I was the wrong person of her choice, too).

All of us need someone.

I want and love my children, but I am not the one they need (although I enjoy Alexangerla love, a "daughter who adopted me as her dad) but she needs her real biological dad (her mother told her "he is dead").

I am not alone because I love those who are alive, and also love those who are dead (but I don´t cling to this feeling: They are not here, and I cannot be there, where somebody could be missing me up).

Alone, but no alone.

Loving and loved, but in the company of those I miss when being missed or dismissed...

I'm embarrassed to say this... Hi, my name's Lauren and I'm addicted to cats. In fact I've rescued 7 of them over the last 8 years. I'm all done adopting cats for a long while but I think this may be a serious obstacle/turn-off for most of the male population lol. Ah well! :D
You are aware of the risks...

I always have kept my pets outside of the bedroom.

The Three Billy Goats Gruff - Norwegian Folk Tale

-> Three Billy Goats Gruff

Once upon a time there were three billy goats, who were to go up to the hillside to make themselves fat, and the name of all three was "Gruff."

On the way up was a bridge over a cascading stream they had to cross; and
under the bridge lived a great ugly troll , with eyes as big as saucers, and a nose as long as a poker.
...
great! now i have the yodelling goat song from the sound of music in my head!

I feel so badly for those of you who've lost pets to coyotes :(

I can hear coyotes howling all the time around here in the distance. I worry often about my dog. He's not tiny and could put up a fight against one or two, but a whole pack... I hate thinking about it. :( I felt better when my husky was alive, but she's been gone for over a year now. Maybe I should get another husky or german shepherd...hmm.

I would put a fence up, but my property is fairly large.

Actually coyote's are by far more lone wolves than wolves are. They don't typically hunt in packs (occasionally pairs) and usually don't go after larger domestic dogs. Unfortunately in many suburban areas they have become so accustomed to humans that their natural fear of humans has diminished.

I actually like to watch them, just creeps me out to hear them howling at night when I know my dog is outside (he has a doggy door and goes out to potty during the night). My dog is not much smaller than they are, so I THINK he would be okay, but I still worry. :( My dog has helped me through so much. It's really tough to think about something happening to him. :(

I think there are plenty of rabbits around here to feed the coyotes....but...I still think about it
