Daft things your pets do Dec 27, 2011
They all have their moments. My pup and cat are constantly racing about like a couple of nutters and just will not leave each other alone.

Wee pup gets himself into trouble every now and then, last night I was in the middle of ploughing through one of my favourite series, watching via my net streaming tv, when the whole thing suddenly stops and a little message pops up 'Boxee has lost internet connection' - er ok, not one I've come across before, so I reboot it and do the usual, nothing works. I then turn my attention to the router box and there is pup sitting merrily chewing the internet cable to pieces, of course he just looks at me with a 'What?' expression on his face.

Luckily I have a gazillion of these cables, so just change it and swap the cable for a chew bone for pup and all is good.

My dog licks his own private parts in public, I was going to say balls, but that's not very ladeeee like.

I think he does it just because he can.

One of my horses likes to come into the kitchen and eat the fruit from the fruit bowl. She makes an awful mess! The same horse also chewed the bumper of my BMW. I was not amused at that!

My Westie talks to me when I get home. He goes mad telling me what's happened all day, which will be not a lot.
He would sell his soul for a carrot. We have some stables and the big horses get big carrots. Alfie nicked a carrot off of a big race horse tonight and could barely carry it. He ate the whole thing. (the carrot, not the horse)

Bethsmum , Hmm my pup - although he's been done - likes to give himself a BJ in public - hugely embarassing at the best of times and as you say, I'm sure he does it purely because he can. My geriatric cat talks ALOT! I swear she says my name and 'hello', 'hiya', 'where aarrreeeee you?'.

As some of you know, I live on a canal in the Gold Coast, Australia now. One morning a fish showed up on my patio...a small one, but nonetheless, a fish. We have cats, so I thought it a bit odd as cats like to hunt, not scavenge, so I wasn't sure who brought the fish up.

A couple of days later, one of the cats was literally laying on the boat ramp, half submerged, tracking the fish that came close to shore. I've never seen a cat that was that stealthy, never mind take a dip in the sea!

So, did you fess up and proceed to prove it???? :mrgreen:

My cat over the past few weeks has taken to doing a wee on Mr BB's bathmat. Fortunately we have our own bathrooms. Mr BB would get up in the morning and find his bathmat all crunched up with a wee stain. I kept accusing Mr BB that it was because he kept missing the bowl because he usually gets up during the night to wee. He has been banned from using my bathroom so he has a few steps to go to get to his. Well yesterday I had the cat box soaking and was doing some odds and ends and went to close the door to Mr BB's bathroom and saw my cat sitting on top of the balled up bathmat. She took off as if her tail was on fire!!! Sure enough, she took a wee!! I went after her yelling at her "Bad!!! Bad!!!" She knows the word and kept scurrying to hide. I think I disturbed her in the middle of her getting ready to do a poo because when I went into the storage room where I keep her box she left something there for me to clean up!!! Even though I don't close my bathroom door all the way she has never ever done it in my bathroom, only Mr BB's.

So I apologized the Mr BB for accusing him of being way off the mark (as opposed to missing the mark in general) and explained that she probably does it in his bathroom because she loves him more. :D I don't know why it is that something men do naturally they can't seem to be neat about it doing it.

My cat is also quite the chatterbox. I ask her questions and I get answers!!! Sometimes she just doesn't know when to shut up. :D

Oh no, I can't do it. I can put my big toe in my mouth (it doesn't arouse me though), but thats it.

Animals can be quite personal :-). I wasn't there and I donot have visual confirmation, but a guy broke up with a crazy b!tch and told me his dog went to her bed and left a message, after which both left.

My ex-husband once wee'd in my make up drawer after a session. I had to bin all my eye shadows.

Oh my other cat sqats over the plug hole in the bath and takes a wee, I guess it's easier to vlean up than the litter tray. I think he's a bit too old to train to actually use the toilet.

The gift was given with all the best intentions, and has made our life difficult, the worse is now over.

Where the Parrot is concerned it would have been "The Parrot trying to eat the Dog" LOL

Wasn't my husband that pee'd in the drawer, it was BM's ex.

There's so many threads that after a couple of drinks I don't remember what we're talking about.:-)

You need to brush up on your cut and pastes SSL.

Yes Bora, that was my ex and no, he wasn't a pet. Pets are something you want to have around.

Bethsmum ,

My apologies BM. Someone needs to learn how to do a proper "quote" or realize that drinking in the wee hours of the morning is not a good thing. Knowing it was you, I'm sure it more had to do with an acrobatic session - you can make a man lose his mind. :wink:

BTW BM, I believe you can take 5 bottles of vino and 4 bottles of spirit through duty free (check before you purchase). Last time I picked up a bottle of gin - just for you. I will make sure there is plenty of lime and ice!!!! If you don't do G&T in the "winter" there is plenty of vino!! See you soon.

Yes sorry about that BM. I'm viewing this through an I-phone, copy & pasting on it tends to be a little hit & miss. Before I know it, I've hit submit, look back & curse:-)

My internet connection was down at a very critical time on DF a while back :shock:
I had given my iphone a bath earlier and moved to a Samsung. I could hardly manage to post never mind cut and paste!
Somone had posted some p<3n. It opened up on my phone and it took me a while to realise what I was looking at. Ladies bits aren't very pretty are they?

I'll stick with gin Bora :P I find I can string a sentence together, for longer, on gin.
See you soon x
