Have to ask yourself, why the "Dog's Rule" thread is in the basement, while Cat's and Pinball have "Front Page" status Do I detect canine discrimination, hhmmmm

Sorry to hear of your loss, lots of people just don't understand how much our pets become a part of our families and our everyday lives.

+1 will go a long way.

I agree guys this thread is for pinsiders to show their pets in.

Lexie sure is a beautiful cat. Sorry to learn of your loss, it's very hard on you when you have a pet that long.

How'd you like to come to the game room and find this laying on the glass lol?

Never seen a cat that large!

No it's actually some ones pet. I got that picture off of an article about 6 months ago but, it was also on the news about that time. I'm not 100% sure of this as it's been awhile but I think it is a specific breed of cat that grows unusually large.

Sure look good laying on your Big Game, instant topper!

You know I've never been a "cat" guy but I follow this thread and beginning to think maybe I haven't given them a fair chance especially seeing from comments here about how much they appear to contribute to the lives they touch. Seriously going to have an earnest conversation with the wife tonight about getting a kitten or perhaps a grown cat from the shelter in town. I say kitten due to having two small dogs and I thought maybe they could or would bond better that way. Trying to avoid any pre-prejudice an older cat may have towards dogs, don't want fighting going on between them.

Have any of you had a good experience with this and was it young kitten, or older cat?

That's the type of interaction I hope to have between my pets, thanks for sharing. I know my dogs are loving animals that show very little to no animosity towards other dogs but, they've never seen cats except outside our backyard fence and I just don't want either hurt. Our dogs are rescues as well and man there are just so many that need a good home, shame people just don't seem to realize animals have so much to offer towards the betterment of our lives, far beyond "the pet for the kids to play" with scenario I here so often.

That is a fabulous name love it!! lol Makes you laugh to think about.

Not a cat but little Toby was in a brutal environment when we rescued him and it took him over a year to warm up to us but he's now a faithful and loving little buddy. Hard to fathom how people can be so cruel to these animals. We need new laws that have Real Consequences for their actions rather than a slap on the wrist and 100 dollar fine. Penalties starting at a year of incarceration would be a good start and non-negotiable sentencing would have to be a must!!!!We first saw Toby on Tv after the SPCA rescued him from his old owners because of people calling about his treatment. He is with us now and will never need a new home or want for love or a safe place to live. If we get a cat or kitten it will be one that needs a good home and people who love them.

See that line on his neck that looks like a collar, it's not that is where they had chain around his neck that became to small as he grew and actually left scares when the vet remove it that will never go away. His owners were fined $75.00 dollars for cruelty towards him. Should have been locked up and chained to post for their duration the bastards!

Shiva the destroyer Hindu god! She is very beautiful, love the gold in her face. Looks to be quite at home!

Set them down and have them watch the Hatfields and McCoys and they'll remember they don't like each again.

Some time back I said we were considering a cat. Well did get one and she is now 1yrs old.
