The Pet Thread

It wasn't that nice before I started working on it.  It had glass shelves in some tacky wood supports in the back which was a giant mirror.  Sorry if some people like mirrors, I always thought that look was awful.

Assuming they don't gnaw the inside to pieces, it could always go back to being a china cabinet pretty easily.

The kittens had their vaccine boosters today, and they are now very sleepy.  I'm hoping I'll get my first decent night's sleep since I adopted them tonight.

Will you be taking high-speed photography of them as well? :lmao:

Ask, and ye shall receive...



My favorite clip...

FYI, when getting parakeets, don't let your wife get them.  She was already out and the local pet store had them on sale.  I figured we would start with a couple...she came home with four.

So far it's been fine, they seem to like their cage and there's plenty of room for all of them, just funny going from 0-to-4.

Honey, lets have a baby.  Better yet, lets have quadruplets.

 

[leggo PE]

Pictures, please! Parakeets are cute!

 

[jeb6294]

So far, so good.  They seem to like the cage and they're getting better outside the cage (they're not tame at all when you bring them home).

My uncle had a parakeet that would sit on his shoulder and drink beer from a glass he was holding.  The bird developed such a big beer belly that it couldn't fly if it wanted to.

^That's awesome. Would it get drunk?

 

[leggo PE]

Aw, cool! As a kid, my brother and I had similar ones to the green and blue ones. Also, one grey one at one time, too.

did you get all the same sex?

 

[leggo PE]

Any bird babies in the future?

 

[Ble_PE]

That's kind of a personal question, don't you think?

 

[Dleg]

No, there was some birdie style thrown in there with the usual missionary.

we have an aging border collie, she is getting a little over neurotic every day - I think age makes the working breeds a little more crazy - if you go outside with her she either paces around frantically waiting for the "Frisbee throwing" to begin, or for me to turn on one of her two nemesis, (Lawn Mower or Garden Hose) She cant just "hang out"

So I learned they sell "doggie weed" snacks at the weed store, supposed to help with everything from symptoms listed above to joint pain? 

Anyone ever try it? (for their pet)?

honestly it was hard to tell.  My uncle used to get pretty drunk though.  Then, when we got older we'd get drunk with him.

Well, chicken killer is on his way back to the adoption agency.  Hopefully he'll get picked up at their next adoption day.

Yes, we've tried some of the pet CBD stuff for my in-law's overly neurotic collie and my BIL/SIL's dog. It really mellowed them out pretty well. My BIL and SIL tried it, but it didn't do anything to them. They aren't big pot heads (or edible users), so it wasn't that...I just think it isn't super strong. I think it would help your border collie to chill the f out. Just make sure to have some Scooby snacks at hand.

I didn’t lift any of their tail feathers, but the pet store told us all their birds are female...or maybe male...can’t remember which but they’re all the same. Apparently, it doesn’t matter if there’s a mix anyway because there isn’t supposed to be any birdie hanky panky if there isn’t a nesting box available which there is not.

One of my cats has taken a liking to lying on my PE study books.  The internet can never have too many pictures of cats!
