Not even if they use their special sauce? Good luck training them on the stashing and\or cooking, always heard that rats were very intelligent and trainable pets. Though if I ever get a pet from the rodent world, it will be a skunk. For now I'll stick with dogs and the critters in my tank.

They were learning great, until we put them with our older rat whose brothers had died. He taught them great people skills, but ruined them on nest-building and using the litter dish. We haven't been able to fix them out of the bad habits they picked up from their rat role model.

Good luck if you ever get a skunk. I had no idea they could be pets.

Yeah they can be good pets. They can be de-sprayed (and its not considered a cruel procedure). I'd want one but they're illegal here.

We name all our rats that way (almost). Before we've had Enlil (Sumerian), Amun (Egyptian), Nyxie (after Nyx in Greek). Then there was Nemo, who we couldn't figure out a god to name him after. I have a feeling my wife's main desire to get girl rats next time is so she can use more female names.

We got ridiculously lucky with him. A military family friend adopted him a year ago but they could no longer keep him so we accepted him into our home. He's 1yr old, fully housebroken, kennel trained, doesn't chew on anything he shouldn't and the worst thing he does is chase the cats (but not attack them). He's great with the kids, loves to cuddle, tons of playful energy and walks without pulling/choking.

I feel like we hit the puppy lotto.

Aug 8, 2013#64

Shakey

Heres my bud, Roofus. I realized I don't have a good current picture of him, so I snapped one.

About a year and a half ago I thought I had lost him. I had been bringing him to the vet every couple months for at least a year. He would get lethargic and not do anything. He'd get mixed up and start walking in circles. Lots of strange stuff. The vet kept telling me it was most likely Anaplasmosis, a tick disease. It kept coming back though.

I brought him to a new vet who ran every test he could think of. He said he didn't think it could be Anaplasmosis, but every test he did came back great. He said he was one of the healthiest 7 year old labs he had seen. That just left the possibility of a brain tumor. Getting it diagnosed would cost a couple thousand, and even then they wouldn't be able to treat it. I was told to just enjoy what time I had left and when I felt he was in too much pain to bring him in and put him down.

A couple months pass and he's not eating anymore. I can hardly get him out the door to go to the bathroom. When I do he growls at me. He had never in his life growled at any one. A lot of the time he just pees in his bed and keeps laying there. I just wasn't ready to let go. Finally he starts puking, lays down outside, and won't move at all. I figured that was it. A new vet opened up closer to me, so I call him to make an appointment to put him down on Monday. He says he wanted to try one thing, but I didn't hold out much hope.

I bring him in and he wants to give him a shot to see if it's Addisons disease. It's when your adrenal glands don't work right. Within a couple days it was like a switched flipped with him. He was so hungry he actually chewed up the plastic container my parents used to store dog food. I was ready to have my dog put to sleep, and suddenly he was back. He's still not 100%, but he's doing ok. He's on a pretty high dose of his medicine, and I think he may need more. So I'm a bit worried as to how long this can last. Normal dogs his side should be on .8 mg of fludrocortisone. Right now he's at 1.8.

We'll see where it goes. I've had him a year and a half longer than I had expected. I'm just happy for the time we have right now.

Here's a couple more pictures from when he was younger.

We get him August 24th. His name was joint decision between my girlfriend and I but I suggested it, mostly because it would be less common for when were are out with him. I think I heard it most recently while reading an in-game note in the last of us and just took to it.

Morphine

A week before my father died I found this 2 month old cat on the street. For the last months I took care of my father through the nights. One morning I went to the store feeling truly like a zombie, just thinking "don't cry." over and over. When I came out of the store she jumped at me from the bushes on the sidewalk and she kind of snapped me out of it. I thought she was cute and moved on. She followed me for 4 or 5 blocks to my father's house. I couldn't let her in so I just thought it was funny she had followed me for so long since cats don't normally do that. I stayed with my dad for another couple of hours until one of my brothers came along, when I came out of the house she was sitting on top of a tree as if she was waiting for me. She came down and still followed me to the bus stop through a park. I didn't think it another moment and just took her with me

She's all big, fluffy and crazy now, her name is Comet and she's the cuddliest cat I've ever met

Suddenly this little cat comes running over to me. She was a calico, mostly grey and orange. She followed me home at my heels like a puppy! I had to keep her. My parents wouldn't let me bring her in their house, so she stayed outside. Every morning she was waiting for me by the door. I named her CC which was short for Crazy Cat.

My grandma wouldn't let me have her in either!! I put a box and plates with food and water out for her and she was always waiting for me

I moved quickly so now we're at my own apartment and she's a total lazy house cat n_n

My new dog Ada. She's a 3 month old Boxer Lab mix I picked up before Christmas at the SPCA. All these are from the rare moments where she's holding still long enough to take a picture.

I like this one, you can see it on the TV, but she's watching the 2014 World Juniors.

Watches quietly. The weirdest things I've caught her barking at was her make shift food bowl at my parents place (it was a cool whip container that kept moving when she was trying to eat out of it), and her own reflection in a sliding glass door.

She's a hoot. Far more tiring than I thought, but so much fun.

They sure are! Wish I had more time to play with mine. He barks at everything! Direct result of someone's idea to combine two of the barkiest breeds on the planet, German Shepherd and Norwegian Elkhound. Movement on TV, movement in the neighborhood, movement in the state, we know about all of it! But he is lots of fun! How large do you expect yours to get? Barking at her reflection had to be hysterical!

Not sure I ever posted a full picture of mine so here is Caribou on a dock in the Outer Banks and battling it out with a crab (feisty crab but it eventually lost when he decided to just step on the poor little guy).

estimates given to me were 60-70lbs, but when I took her to the vet at 10 weeks she was 15lbs already which I'm told is a lot for her age. I'm figuring 70+ now. She's not fat or particularly big, just lean and well packed I guess.

Our older Pug has a true double coat, coarse outer layer and softer silkier under layer, he gets very hot once the temps move into the 80s. The younger Pug, in the bottom picture, is the bundle of energy. I worry more about their paws with this stuff, rather than having them bundled up.

I have to spend some much time on Li'l Z lately, I don't think our other "kid" gets the spotlight nearly enough anymore. And he should; he's been a very good dog for the past 10+ years.

Question for all you cat owners. Oscar seems very needy. If I close a door and he can't get in he will sit and meow constantly, and at night he seems to meow almost every hour looking for attention. It's making for some really long nights. My guess is it's due to the new house and leaving the old owners. I'm hoping it'll get better over time, any suggestions on how to speed it along?

Pet question. I'm allergic to cats. I don't mind, but it's reason enough for my girlfriend not to want to get a cat (though I suspect she just likes dogs better

). I'm slightly less allergic to dogs, so she wants one of those.
Unfortunately, we still live in a small apartment (67m² - about 720 ft²? Part of it would by necessity be off limits to any pet, though).
Thing is, I still work random hours - 12h-shifts, nights, weekends,... She's unemployed (and bored and lonely...Gee I wonder why she brings up the whole I-want-a-dog-thing again

), so right now there's be someone with them most of the time. If and when she gets a new job, though, any pet we get may have to be able to go 12 hours without people. There's a small terrace, so they can get out, but no yard or garden or anything where a dog might run or crap - so being able to hold it in for 12 hours is pretty important too. I'd gladly go on walks before and after shift if I have to (slightly less glad at 5am in wintertime, but fairly few dogs enjoy an hour-long walk in those conditions anyway

). Also, if I were to get a dog/cat, I'd want one I can actually pet, and/or cuddle/play with. If I wanted a pet to look at and admire from a distance, I'd get an aquarium. Or just turn on any random streaming video of kittens.
She enjoys looking at Animal Planet or looking through magazines and saying things like "oh look, a French Bulldog! Perfect for a small apartment, they can be alone, they like cuddling, they're smallish! let's get one" or "Oh hey, ragdolls cats are so awesome! They act half like a dog, and they can be left alone for a long time, no hard allergic reactions!". And, you know, I've met plenty of purebred cats to know that, yes, in general, I'm less allergic to them. Dogs, ditto. But if I were to get a dog/cat, I'd hate to get an expensive bred bloodline thingie when there are way too many poor kitties and dogs in pounds/asylums/homes/etc.
I've tried to bring up other, possibly more viable pets (rats, ferrets) but she's not all that interested. Not sure what to do.
Ideally:
-> Can be alone for longer periods
-> Can ride in a car for an hour or so
-> Likes to pet/cuddle/play
-> Can either use a box or hold it in for 12h
-> Not too allergenic
-> Can live in a smallish apartment, if taken out regularly for exercise
-> I'd rather spend €800 on pet equipment or donations than on buying a purebred anything.

Do you think we could give a dog or cat a decent home, or, as it unfortunately seems to me, would it just end up with a pet that either misbehaves or is plain unhappy because of the living conditions?

Aug 12, 2014#174

Hailey Knight

@ZenMonkey the frogs seem perplexed. Cute though.

@Bubble181
I don't think your living conditions are ideal for a dog. A cat could be okay, but that busts your allergy thing. A hamster meets many of those requirements, but won't cuddle or play. Rats/ferrets can't be left alone for long periods.

There's really no animal that meets all of those requirements. Pets that give you a rewarding experience take a lot of time and attention, pets that can do their own thing tend not to care or know you exist.

For my stuff,

Yes, the male looks after the eggs and takes them to the water source when they've hatched. As far as being parental the females just lay the eggs. Dart frogs are smarter than you'd think but still not exceptionally, so I doubt the females connect "little spheres that came out of me" and "tiny fishy thing." Now the females hunker down and watch them like television or fishbowls though.

Two of our three cats; the one on the right is Kronos (nicknamed Big McLargeHuge) and the little girl on the left is Theia (Tiny McLittleSmall).

This is Striker B. Underfoot, aka Stinky Mink, aka The Wifferous Weasel. He's a 3-year old champagne male who sleeps in a fur-lined hat (no, not doomweasel fur) and lords it over all the upstairs doomweasels. Because he's such a dominant male, he produces a lot of musk, which he spreads all over him like a mustelidae Hai Karate. It's not an offensive odour but you certainly know when he's close by.

He is also my main sock-stealer, so if your socks go missing, it's because of him. Be afraid.

Shortly after we moved here (beginning of June), we adopted a cat from the closest SPCA.

I present: Alia.

Then, a few months later (late September), Eriol decided that Alia was lonely and needed a friend. So we adopted another kitty from the local rescue.

I present: Pandora.

They are both technically 'long-haired', and my clothing is never the right colour any more, no matter what I wear and how many lint roller sheets I go through.

And no, Alia is not deaf, despite the blue eye and white fur.

And really, I've never actually sat in that chair at all, since I got the cat. A second chair in here is now kind of... unused

So I put a blanket down on the seat cushion, and I think I've taken pictures of the cat on the blanket in the chair here before. That's basically his chair. But naturally he found the least comfortable way to sit in his chair.

I have a cute little kitty to give away. We were at my grandpa's funeral this weekend and he showed up in his barn. No other kitties or mama. We think someone dropped him off.

There's no way we could leave him, so we have him and will probably be bringing him to the shelter soon. It is a no-kill shelter. He's a tiny little ball of fur, cute as hell, so I have no doubt he'll find a home very quickly.

Plenty of games you can play one-handed.

I did not mean that in a dirty way; there are genuinely plenty of games I like I can play either with only a hand on the keyboard, or only by mouse.

One of the things we promised ourselves we'd do once we had a house with a yard is get a dog. So, today we went over to Roseburg, to one of the rescue centers, and picked up this handsome boy. This is Luca. He's a little over 1 year old, and a Border Collie mix (with unknown parentage). The rescue center got him as a stray, but he knows "sit," is super affectionate and snuggly, and doesn't like getting in cars, but knows what to do once he's there. He's a good boy.

Doomweasels are created from Jello and rubber bands. They have to be left to set for 24-48 hours, depending on size.

They are then given mind-altering drugs to increase their energy and stamina.

A vigorous training regime is set up for them, including tunneling,

sapping,

and overland reconnaissance.

After a hard day of training, doomweasels will settle down for a nutritious snack made from their enemies...

then a well-earned rest.
