But who's gonna pay the shipping cost? You shipped it to zero... you're expecting him to pay to ship it to Pipp? That's not very fair...

Lifes not fair

Lifes not fair

That's for sure but the thing is I don't want to be treated fairly but rather desire compassion and mercy.

 

[Lynx]

Lifes not fair

I don't want life to be fair. I want it to be consistently unfair in my favor.

Let's hear about yours

I have 11 quail that lay eggs, and yes, we (my four kids and I) eat the eggs. We have a rat terrier dog, two cats, an amazon parrot, a cockatiel and two netherland dwarf rabbits.

 

[calibob]

My ex and I had 2 cockatiels once. We came home from shopping and discovered our cat in a hanging plant on the opposite side of the room staring at them, the question was 'How'd she get up there?' Lol, never figured it out.

I got a dog when I got a decent flat after I became single. She was a golden retriever. Utterly charming. She was like a Houdini, always getting out from her kennel. She even chewed off her leash.

I had to give her away when I got Plato the servicedog. He was so skinny and nervous looking, he was difficult to love. But his gentle nature, always happy and eager won me over big time.

When I heard I had to get another servicedog due to age, I was really depressed. I had to give him away. But one after another backed off until the point I was to get Memo. I decided to try to have them both, and it was just changing my life. It was such a dynamic to see the two of them in action.

Memo is the serious one. It took weeks before he wiggled his tail after he moved here. The wiggling has increased by the week and he is the most affectionate dog you could imagine.

I had to get a bigger bed to have space for them both. Luckily my boyfriend also loves dogs. When we get married we do face a problem, though. Will there be space for the four of us?

 

[MusicPhased]

Yay! I LOVE THIS TOPIC! I got so many pets. I got a bearded dragon named Xera, she is about 4 years old, I got an arowana named Chloé she is about 1.5 years old haha. Then I got a turtle I named sheldor, Got also 8 Tarantula, a scorpion and lots of more fishes haha

Meet Sophie.



For the record, I prefer to be a cat lady instead of having romantic partnerships.

 

[Lynx]

Sophie looks slightly apprehensive. Not frightened, just mildly wary of that strange plastic box you are holding up and pointing at her.

Animals don't seem to like having their photos taken. Other cats that I've been around are the same way. Dogs wiggle around a lot too, as if they don't know what's going on. This is a bit difficult for me because I love taking photos of animals, despite how hard it is. The idea of animal photography highly appeals to me, even though it's not likely I will take up that profession. It does sound like fun.

My dogs love to pose. Mostly because there might be a treat afterwards. I am not good at taking photos. The view from my porch seem to be the only thing I manage to capture except for the dogs.

This is really cool. Hey, if you want to share nice pics, I suppose you can, if you feel like it. Animals are extremely photogenic. I love photos of animals. Such beautiful creatures! My mother and my stepfather love wolves. Stepfather loves huskies. So beautiful!! I think felines are gorgeous creatures. They're all so visually stunning in their own ways. Very few things are as visually beautiful to me than a portrait of an animal, or a well-taken photo of an animal.

We were not really allowed pets when I was young because one of my sisters was deathly allergic to fur and feathers. I recently discovered this did not necessarily include dogs, though we certainly never had one of them, regardless. We did have a cat for a short time before my sister's allergies were discovered, but with so many children in the house (I have ten siblings) the cat preferred the neighbors' house for some strange reason (LOL)

We of course tried all manner of ways of working around the no-pets rule. I was the first to get a rabbit, and it lived outside, as did the chickens we had for a while (chickens as pets? Haha, go figure, we were desperate). I also had a mouse or two, and we had fish (mine died, too, Gabe I cried when I discovered it stuck between the aerator and the tank wall) and one of my brothers had an iguana in a terrarium. The joke about it was that since it hardly moved, it was probably dead for days before anyone realized it, which reminds me of a turtle one of my sisters had, and the tragic end it came to while we were on summer holidays.

I cannot fail to mention in any thread about pets that we had raccoons as pets when I was young, raccoons which I looked after, grooming and feeding them and taking them for walks over the course of four years until the day I came home from school and they were mysteriously gone. Same thing happened to one of my mice. In my house, you knew better than to ask questions about such things. Didn't always stop us, but we knew the answers as surely as we knew that nobody in the know was going to tell us any pertinent details.

We ony kept two of the four.

^^ This one's name was Ferocious; we trusted each other

I have had a number of cats over the years. My current housemate is Luna:

My daughter lives in a house with four humans, three cats, and two dogs. Her dogs are precious creatures

That's so cool that you had raccoons! They're very intense creatures. If they can be made into pets, it must be a talent or something. I don't know, really. Super cool. It makes me think of people who are able to get cats and dogs to get along. It makes me so happy when there are cats and dogs in a household that are friends and have zero issues.

That purple is very pretty. The cat and the dogs are all adorable. The costumes!! Love the photos!

Not many in my family cared for the raccoons, probably because they could not really get close to them once they were no longer baby animals, though they were unique as pets, for sure, and I was pretty much their sole care giver from the time I was nine until I was thirteen

My daughter's cats and dogs get along better with each other than the cats do with the other cats The same could maybe be said of the dogs, for the older one still wants to be number one, while the younger one challenged her position from day one, and eventually won However, they are both very well behaved dogs, loving, eager to please, and obedient especially to my daughter, who has trained them well. She works as a vet assistant, and takes very good care of all her animals. The one dog is a Cava-Poo mix, and the younger one is a tri-red miniature Aussie Shepherd, which is a herding dog. They are both very smart My daughter takes them far afield for adventurous walks, and has shot some really fabulous pix of them She dresses them up a couple of times a year

Your kittie is cute! Mine is a rescue; I got her four years ago

Sophie fell out from under the wheel of my mother's car. We were on our way to the store when my mother saw her bouncing along the road. She pulled over and told me to stay in the car, but I jumped out and ran up to where my mother was standing. I was fast enough to catch the kitten running on her two front paws. One of her back legs was sprained, but after a few months of living with us ─ I kept her in my room ─ it healed up rather quickly. She's my fur-baby now. Can't imagine not having her in my life. She's a kitten of a stray mother cat that I feed. She has other siblings and a gray male cat that looks after two baby black kittens. Not sure where those two kittens are right now. The mother cat and the gray boy cat have been around, though. My mother speculated that a large bird possibly ate the remaining two black kittens. Not sure. Don't want to think about it.

...And then there is this one kitten that looks just like the mother cat...but I haven't seen her at all for many months, unlike the two black baby kittens.

One trick is to hold up a toy or something they like that will get their attention.
