About Our Pets... 1. They live here. You don't. 2. If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. (That's why they call it "fur"niture.) 3. I like my pets a lot better than I like most people. 4. To you, it's an animal. To me, he/she is an adopted son/daughter who is short, hairy and walks on all fours. Although they doesn't speak clearly, they communicate extremely well, especially cats. 5. Dogs and cats are better than kids ... they eat less, don't ask for money all the time, are easier to train, usually come when called (this does not apply to cats), never drive your car, don't hang out with drug-using friends, don't smoke or drink, don't worry about having to buy the latest fashions, don't wear your clothes, and don't need a gazillion dollars for college. Also, if they get pregnant, you can sell the children!!! :-D
We've got cats and horses now, and also we've had dogs, rabbits and degus. Even the degus were nicer company than many people I know.
Yes; I'd much rather spend time with my parakeets than with either my sister or with some old friends.
They don't criticize you for spending too much money. They don't tease you for doing something foolish or stupid.
That is so true.My little Oreo is my buddy .He is so loyal and is my best friend.I tell him all my thoughts and he never tells them.He never tells anyone about the stupid things I do.
I know what you mean, Glenda... Missy is that kind of cat -- understands what I'm saying and can keep a secret! Austin... he's more for entertainment!
And furkids are heat sources on a cold winter night. As of last fall, I now have six cats. I told my stepfather this, and he said, "How the hell do you feed all those things?!" I wanted to say, "They're not things. They're furry children."
