No pet post but I found a home for my stray kitty yesterday! (don't ask about the vet bills) She and her senior Mommy are very happy! (owner lost her kitty very recently and really needed a cat companion!)

Thread from the past. This was posted on NSXPrime and I thought it was funny so I'm sharing it:
"FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE PETS, THIS IS A TRUE STORY. FOR THOSE THAT DON'T, IT'S ALSO A TRUE STORY. The following was found posted very low on a refrigerator door.
Dear Dogs and Cats: The dishes on the floor with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Placing a paw print in the middle of my plate does not mean that is suddenly your food, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.
The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Racing me to the top of the stairs is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I fall faster than you can run.
I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It IS NOT necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other, stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out on the other end to maximize space that you are taking up, is nothing but sarcasm.
For the last time, there is no secret exit from the bathroom! If, by some miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under the edge in an attempt to open the door. I must exit through the same door I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years - canine/feline attendance is not required.
The proper order for kissing is: Kiss me first, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough.
Finally, in fairness, dear pets, I have posted the following message on the front door: TO ALL NON-PET OWNERS WHO VISIT AND COMPLAIN 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, they are animals. To me, they are adopted companions who are short, hairy, walk on all fours and don't speak clearly. Remember, dogs and cats are better than kids because they: (1) eat less, (2) don't ask for money all the time, (3) are easier to train, (4) normally come when called, (5) never ask to drive the car, (6) don't hang out with drug-using people; (7) don't smoke or drink, (8) don't want to wear your clothes, (9) don't have to buy the latest fashions, (10) don't need a gazillion dollars for college and (11) if they get pregnant, you can sell their children.

Cute...my dogs used to follow me everywhere, and lie in the bathroom while I was in there taking a bath or whatever. Not sure I posted this pic of my sweetest dog, Samantha. Adopted her from the animal shelter. She lived to 16. My Weimaraners were beautiful but somewhat neurotic.

Cute post, Patricia. Our kitty rules our house.
They have special kits which you can use to train the cat to use the toilet. Given that we only have one bathroom, we let ours continue with the litter box.
We've had a cat (two for a while) for over 25 years. +1 kept saying Cat #2 would be our last one. She was a bit high maintenance and special needs. We lost her last year and were at the shelter by the end of the week looking to adopt a kitty.
