There's your problem, right there.

HEY! I resemble that remark! :P

You might say that; I could not possibly comment :)

Yes :( That's been my problem too. Now I'm retired many rescue centres think I'm too old to take a dog.

Fortunately daughter acquired a dog by default[1], and now I get to see that regularly. Fascinating creature, sharp as a tack. She reckons it is a grandparent relationship.

[1]
Girl in shared flat got dog.
Six(!) weeks later girl left flat and left dog. (And they say men have commitment problems!)
Other denizen looked after dog as best he could.
A month later daughter arrived in flat with her hamster, and helped with the dog.
Denizen went to San Diego to get married, and fortunately left dog behind.
Happy relationship ensued, to both their advantage.

--- Quote ---"Post a picture of a cat" is off topic but at least pleasant and not confrontational, "xyz sucks and these people are idiots!" is neither on topic nor pleasant.

Possibly for dogs, but not for dog lovers  >:D , and agreed.

Well what about for people like me who love dogs and cats? :)  :popcorn:  :scared:

Response 1: I don't dislike cats[1] but don't see how people can like them for more than their mousing abilities (and my daughter's dog puts most cats to shame in that respect!)

Response 2: can't be expected to write explicit caveats for all the wierdos out there :)


[1] except when they are purring on my lap and also sinking their claws into my thighs, or vomiting birds up next to me on the sofa.

Mine spend most of their time curled up on my lap or next to me on the sofa or bed. They provide companionship and affection, and I don't have to wonder what they really think or if they have ulterior motives. I think cats brains are wired much like the autistic mind, I feel like I relate to cats more so than I do with many humans. My observation has been that most people who don't like cats have never taken the time to get to know one. Cats are generally speaking introverts and don't warm up to new people right away, it takes a while before they will trust and open up to someone. Some cats are just jerks though, just like people they are individuals, no two cats are quite alike.

Seriously?!?

In the semirural north Florida town where my grandma lived out her final years (like so many retirees from the east coast and Midwest), her veterinarian had a rather charming arrangement: rehoming the pets of deceased elderly folks with other elderly folks. I mean, it sucks that it’s necessary, but sometimes it happens, and that way, widowed pets got to live out their days in a loving home instead of a shelter. Worked out great, too, for when an elderly person knew they wouldn’t outlive a puppy or kitten.
