Never seen it fail! Goodnight Heath take care of Ms. Edith... Blessings
Night.
* Your non-dog friends won't eat food prepared in your kitchen.
-MY mother's saying is ''No meal is complete without dog hair.''
* You can't see out the passenger side of the windshield because there are dog nose prints all over the inside.
-Well I can't see out my back windows...
* Your dog sleeps with you.
-He sleeps beside my bed... Most of the time(lets not tell my mom about the others though ;)
* You'd rather stay home on Saturday night and cuddle your doggies than go to the movies with your sweetie.
-Where I go he goes.
* Your have 32 different names for your dogs. Most make no sense but they understand.
-Rex, Rexy, Rexypoo, Wolfy, Hobo...
* You send birthday, anniversary and Christmas cards from your dog.
-Of course...
* You like people who like your dogs. You despise people who don't.
- My dog seems to be the best judge of character I know... I won't question his judgement.
* You lecture people on responsible dog ownership every chance you get.
-Someone needs to.
* You carry dog biscuits in your pockets all the time.
-You never know when you may need them.
* You talk about your dogs like other people talk about their kids.
- I would say my dog is cuter.
* Your license plate or license plate frame mentions your dogs.
-Oh hell yeah. My Mustang's license plate says'' Rex, True Friend'' and has a pic of a husky.
You learn to crochet even though you hate it and make the doggies and kiddies little cute pet vest.
You get in the giant tub with him when its time for his bath.
You cry when he whimpers as he's getting his shots:D
You guys are wonderful!
You reall love your dog when you give him half your steak.
OK, let's see exactly how many of these apply to cat people ^_^
* You have a kiddie wading pool in the yard but no small children
somehow I don't think my kitty would appreciate a wading pool
* Lintwheels are on your shopping list every week.
most of my clothing is dark enough that a little fur won't matter. The rest, I keep out of fur range and put on right before I leave.
* Your freezer containes more dog bones than anything.
my freezer contains an ice cream tub and ice packs.
* You hang around the dog section of your local bookstore way too often.
the local bookstore went out of business a couple months ago
* Your non-dog friends won't eat food prepared in your kitchen.
so far I'm the only one who's eaten anything prepared in my kitchen. No one else has been over to visit
* You have baby gates permanently installed at strategic places around the house but no babies.
with the kittens on the way, I'd love to have a way to keep them out of certain rooms, but the set-up of my house would prevents it. Besides, baby gates only work with cats for a few weeks.
* You open your purse and that big bunch of baggies you use for pick-up pops out .
one of the perks of having a cat, is they use a litter box
* You skip breakfast so you can walk your dog in the morning before work.
no, but I've left later than I meant to because I was apologizing for not letting her go outside and explaining that she's an INDOOR cat now
* The trash basket is more or less permanently installed in the kitchen sink, to keep the dog out of it while you're at work.
edith is amazingly disinterested in the trash bag. I have to get a real trash can before the kittens are mobile, though
* You can't see out the passenger side of the windshield because there are dog nose prints all over the inside.
I don't even own a car, so it's a moot point regardless of what pet I have
* You don't go to happy hours with co-workers anymore because you need to go home and walk your dog.
never went to happy hour to begin with, but I worry if I'm not home by the time it gets dark. I don't want edith to be afraid of the dark, even though I know that's a silly worry for a cat
* You don't think it's the least bit strange to stand in the back yard chirping "Molly, Pee!" over and over at your dog who tends to play and forget what she's our there for.
once again, a perk of having a cat that uses a litter box
* You go to the pet supply store every Saturday because it's one of the very few places that lets you bring your dog inside, and the dog loves to go with you.
I don't think there's a pet supply store in town anywhere
* You get an extra long hose on your shower massage just so you can use it to wash the dog in the tub, without making the dog sit hip deep in water.
yeah, I LIKE my skin attached to my body. That means I do NOT try to shower the cat
* You and the dog come down with something flu like on the same day. The dog sees the vet while you settle for an over the counter remedy from the drug store.
if she gets sick enough to need a vet, I'll go without whatever I need to. I don't take medicine, anyway
* You not only have dog toys strewn about, but your guests also have to be careful not to trip on the dog jumps. (well we gotta exercise them in the winter somehow)
edith isn't interested in the balls I bought her, so they're in a drawer until the kittens can play with them. After that, I fully expect to be tripping on them
* Your weekend activities are planned around taking your dog for a hike.
no, but I don't think I'll be away from home for more than a few hours at a time until the kittens are weaned and I've found most of them homes. It's just not nice to leave an expectant mother or babies by themselves for longer than absolutely needed
* You refer to yourself as "mommy" and "daddy".
no, it's one thing I've never seen the point of. Besides, with a cat, you are not the head of the house, they are
* Your dog sleeps with you.
my cat sleeps near me. She doesn't like to lie in one place for long, and I move too much for her to get comfy
* You'd rather stay home on Saturday night and cuddle your doggies than go to the movies with your sweetie.
yes. And it doesn't even matter that I don't have a sweetie, or money for the movies
* You keep an extra water dish in your second-floor bedroom, in case your dog gets thirsty at night.
no, but there's only one floor to my apartment, anyway
* You avoid vacuuming the house as long as possible because the dogs are afraid of the brain-sucker.
well, once I get a vacuum, that'll be true
* When your dog is getting old and arthritic, and you go buy lumber and build it a small staircase so it can climb onto the bed by itself.
I will build whatever I can to make her life easier when she's old
* You shovel a zig-zag path in the back yard snow so your dog can reach all of his favorite places.
nope. If I decide to harness train her and take her next winter, she's going to have to deal with the snow if she wants to get somewhere that's not shoveled. And I'll have to walk right through it after her
* Your have 32 different names for your dogs. Most make no sense but they understand.
edith, miss edith, gorgeous, round one, mommy
* Your dog eats cat poop but you still let him/her kiss you (but not immediately after, of course)
thankfully, NOT a habit edith has decided to pick up
* You never completely finish a piece of steak or chicken so the dog gets some too.
edith gets dibs on all my dishes once I'm done with them
* Poop has become a source of conversation for you and your significant other.
no SO
* You are the only idiot walking in the pouring rain because your dog needs his walk.
please see the shower head comment. I LIKE my skin
* You send birthday, anniversary and Christmas cards from your dog.
havne't had the chance yet. Haven't decided if she'll be included, or not
* You like people who like your dogs. You despise people who don't.
if you don't like my kitty, you don't have to come visit me.
* You lecture people on responsible dog ownership every chance you get.
if they can't realize that having a pet is a lot like having a kid, then they have no right having either. You have to love them and take care of them and be there for them and not leave them by themselves for days on end or forget to feed them or give them away because they just wants cuddles and you're not willing to give them
* You keep eating even though you find a dog hair in your pasta.
yeah, it's still food and I'm still hungry. Besides, I know my cat, it's not like it's hair from a strange cat or something
* You carry dog biscuits in your pockets all the time.
no, but the kitty treats are in the cabinet with the human snacks
* You talk about your dogs like other people talk about their kids.
yeah, and? I find it only fair since I don't plan on having any human babies
* You have your dog pictures on your office desk. (but no one else's).
I don't have my own desk
* Your license plate or license plate frame mentions your dogs.
I don't even own a car, so it's a moot point regardless of what pet I have
* You match your furniture, carpet and clothes to your dog.
no, but it's all dark enough that a black fur doesn't show up
hmmm... so it's basically just the outside ones that don't apply to me. I don't think the vehicle ones count, since I don't own one
You go out at two in the morning to buy hairball snacks.
All the decorations on the Christmas tree are at the top.
You send your friends pictures of you and your husband,children grandchildren and the kitties in your Christmas Cards.
Your sister tells you all about your new baby. You tell her all about your new kittens.
The only time you close a door is when you're showering, so the kitties are never locked out of a room.
You plan meals around rather or not your cat will want the leftovers.
You can go days without seeing or speaking to another human being, but you ask your cat's opinion on everything from what to eat to what to wear that day, and tell them what you're doing every time you get up to go into another room.
pedicure? I can't afford a pedicure. I have to buy a cat brush, and a litter box with lower sides so the kittens will be able to use it, and cat toys for the kittens, and scratching posts, and food, and litter, and treats. Who has the time or money for a pedicure ^_^
once I find a cat brush, that doesn't cost a ridiculous amount of money, it's pretty much a guarantee I'll spend more time brushing kitty hair than my own hair ^_^
Hey, I just did something non-cat-related. Didn't have anything to do with the Internet, either.Quote:

Wait, that did NOT make the point I was going for...
I have a pedicure about once evry two months.When we adopted our kitties they were declawed after we had them a while. And they hate getting brushed. Oh by the way you know you love kitties when you allow them to scratch your leather couch and yoou know you can't buy another for a while.
hehe, my couches have wicker arms. I'm sure the kittens will LOVE them ^_^
I've never had a manicure or pedicure. Haven't had my hair cut by in a salon since I was about 12-13.
I'm doing spring cleaning outside... pulling weeds etc. I am leaving the weeds that I know (and I know:D) that my dogs like and need to eat.
My yard will never be weed free (big weeds) don't want them to have to stretch to much:)
I bought a lambskin rug to ease my older dogs pains. He is gone now, but they all use it.
I lie to my G-D child and tell her it is fake.:o
I actually lie a lot:D
Don't feel too bad. You have probably gone through the rabbit, bird, lizard ,hamster thing with your child, by saying they ran away or their with the other birds. My youngest was six and we had a funeral for a lizard. You do what you got to do with little ones.
Every morning when I get my vitamins out of a case... they hear the teeny tiny click, no matter how quiet I try to be and no matter where they are in the house, they come running because that means I am leaving and they get a cookie.:rolleyes:
I've trained them well:)
You know I don't know what we would do without our animals.
Our kids had pets and we have regular pet cemetery in our back yard.
I drew the line at snakes. Now I guess we've passed on the love of animals to our children.
They each have dogs or cats except for our youngest who is in her last year of College. She always bring the kitties a treat when she comes home.
Good night:):)
Growing up, the only pets we were allowed to have were birds and fish. I usually ended up 'adopting' neighborhood cats or dogs. It was a fairly common occurrence for a dog to follow me home. I always found it's home and was able to return it.
I got an aquarium when I was in high school. I kept fish until I went off to college. When I ended up living with friends, there were cats. At the height, I was living with 9 cats.
When I became homeless, I promised myself that I would try to find a place that would let me have pets. When I met edith, before she even told me her name, I decided that I would do everything I could to give her a home when I found one for myself.
I moved in the beginning of the month, and brought edith home before I even bought groceries. We've been happy in our new home ever since. I'm looking forward to her having the babies. I just wish I could keep them all.
I wish you could keep them too. I have a neighbors cat (he's an outdoor cat) who's been coming around every day. Our neighbor is in a retirement center. She loves that cat so I told her son Patrick we would watch out for Toby. He has a little nook right beside the wood bin. I don't think my kitties like him they stand right up making these growling sounds when I'm outside with him looking through the glass doors.
What does that have to do with anything?
I think he's just looking for a fight, or to get a rise out of us. My guess is that he has an issue with some of the dog people here (dog/pets experts and those with dog avies).
Okay Heath, when are the kitties due? I can't believe anyone would say that about people who love dogs. How many years of college do you have? You seem awfully smart.
I'm not sure, but they should come soon. I don't think she can get any rounder.
I've completed 4 years of college, but I still have a year's worth of classes before I can get my BFA in visual arts. Right now, I owe money before I can go back.
That's great! My youngest graduates in may from college. Communication and Music. She's going to grad school next fall and I guess then she'll decide what she's going to do. She is a really good girl. You'll do great! Isn't visual arts something photograpy? I know you can be a painter or an sculptor. That would be one great thing to be able to do. I have trouble with my hands on the computer keys.Later
Not surprised to see the Troll avy by your name.
So, why are you here, just want to rile people up?
I'd suggest trying to answer questions, ask questions, or at least stop insulting people if you want to stay. If you keep doing what you're doing, well, I'll say good bye now.
AMHD is a great site but you can't go around being a jerk if you want to be a part of it. We don't tolerate that. Okay?
I found, and posted, the kitty equivalent.

Next year I'll be going to college, for Human Services and a concentration in Addiction Counselling. And the only way I'm moving into an apartment is if they accept animals. I have Rex(Siberian Husky), Princess and Sox(cats), Shadow(Ferret), and my aquarium full of fish, frogs and eels.
I'm kind of worried about taking my cats, as right now they are indoor/outdoor, but if I were to move away they would have to be indoors all the time.They aren't even litter trained, if thy need to go out the cry at the door( their better house trained then my bros 4yrs old black lab ;) )
k, I got one, how about when you saw the legs of an old couch at your camp, because your dog is very arthritic, and had a hard time getting up on the normal couch and it's too hard for him to get from the down and up position from the floor. Or how about when you carpet the stairs so they can go down stairs, even though there is nothing they could possibly want down there unless they are planning on doing laundry??
Yes, that's a good one. Or when you are wearing those black pants that are like a lint trap, and they come up and decide at the last minute to wipe their eye boogers on your pant leg, and then lick the other leg? Well at least both legs match now!
When any clothes that fur DOESN'T stick to become your favorites, no matter how much you really don't like them. And you seriously consider buying several more (on in each color).
