I have an outdoor cat, a 19 year old tabby named Killer. He has been the king of the jungle on my street since the late eighties when he took out Crystal the siamese. He is starting to look a bit saggy and skinny in his old age like Hulk Hogan or Arnold. But his street cred is unfuckwithable and he will probably be allowed to retire in peace without fear of a visit from Luca Brasi.

either let a shitload of mice loose in yr place or buy a dog.

Buy another cat, if it is the opposite sex make sure it is fixed. They will tend to get plenty of exercise chasing each other around the apartment. I good for entertainment value, too

I'm against this idea just on principle. I respect people's rights to own pets and I'll probably own one myself someday, but I don't think it's okay to let your animals run wild and unattended.

I don't want someone elses cat, dog, or hamster in my garbage, peeing on my porch, or bothering my animals when they're in their own yard, etc.

Agreed. Our two cats are hilarious to watch. They're both very entertaining.

Speaking of chubby pets, the vet informed me my chihuahua is 'obese' and needs to lose a half a pound.

She doesn't get to lick plates anymore.

A HALF a pound? Poor Sophie.

I say she just go for losing an entire pound. She might get more boys that way.

Let the cat loose. If it ends up pining for the fjords, you can always visit a taxidermist and then Muffins will be yr friend for life.

That's tough love, dude.

speaking of cats, i was delivering mail today and i saw this white cat curled up behind a tree in the shade. it was really skinny and it's ears were partly ripped off and i thought it was dead at first but it woke up. so i thought it was this other white cat that was missing part of an ear so i drove to that person's house but that cat was there, so then on the way back to the first cat i stopped at walgreen's and got a can of cat food and gave it to the cat when i got back. i think it said 'thanks, man' when it meowed at me.

i should get a medal.
