My pets have often been my buddies.
Hell, one of my boys would be sleeping facing me, head on the pillow when I woke up. I was devastated when I lost him a couple of years ago.
My pets are like family to me.
But my best friends are humans, Jess (who is to blame for certain pictures), and Cassie.
Both live in Sydney.
Dying to live, living to die.

My uncle had a pet rock, it dreamed of stardom. It moved to Sweden, joined a pop group.

My pet stories. The story.
Is that we adopted abandoned kittens who were pregnant in ye covid times. Now I have ten cats, and not a one ally in eating kittens.
They eat 50lbs of food.... a week..I grow all of our food, weekly.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Regardless of how much you love your pet - it does not love you.
It just knows a handy food dispenser when it sees one.
Quit feeding it - and it will start sizing you up as a meal.

My cats like being near me. Don't need contact, food, attention, just proximity. That'll do for me.

Good one. Carbon dating on it must have been a bitch.

The smartest dog I ever knew was a border collie called Trixie. One Christmas, she had the other six dogs set up a racket outside. As soon as we all trooped out to see what the trouble was, Trixie streaked in, snatched the goose off the table and rocketed off across the pasture with the others six dogs in tow.
Da’s only comment was, ‘Makes you proud to be a farmer.’

Rocks aren’t carbon dated.

Neither is ABBA. But this sophomoric plebe, me, is desperate for your tutelage. Sorry I don't rise to your intellect. I mean, being silly and having fun is a crime.
