Jehosaphat the mongrel cat Jumped off the roof today. Some would say he fell but I could tell He did himself away. His eyes weren't bright like they were the night We played checkers on the train. God Bless his soul he was a tootsie roll,, But he's a dead cat just the same!!
according to the poem posted earlier the cat "played checkers on the train".
i don't believe it. if cats are so smart why can't they be taught to attack and kill people...like dogs.
Clever idea, chuck...not enough dogs to handle the job?
If felines kill like canines will
Much nicer life would be,
The backyards filled
With people killed;
Of course, not you nor me.
So you're the one
Who's will be done
Animalistically.
Oh, by the way,
My Cougar's at bay,
Temporarily.
Should it be that your pup
Might even show up
An issue might then ensue:
I don't eat dog
But my kit's such a hog;
There's a chance it'll be chuckdoggy stew.
there was a young cat from the sticks
with fistulous balls and two pricks
when it went for a shit
that spectacular kit
made the populace thoroughly sick
If I wanted a cat that could do tricks, I'd buy a dog.....(sooo, just a joke, cuz I would have a Black Labradour right now if I had the space and time....and he would be named after the one I had as a child...get ready to laugh, and laugh, and laugh,...............and laugh,.....at 5 years old I named him Candy......after black licorice......really dumb, I know).
Rizamoon and her dog went to bed,
Read a book, ate some honey and bread.
They then drank some whiskey
And whenRiza got frisky,
She gave the mutt excellent head.
Canuck had a pedigree hound
Which he got from the Calgary pound,
When the critter got older
The bastard! - he sold her
To Walmart, then went underground.
I once had a dog named Red.
Thought he would be good in bed.
All he did though..........
Was snore and shit and shed
so decided it was a man I should bed.
When faced with the same
though I be shamed
I returned to the dog instead.
If your girlfriend is giving you grief,
This act it will give some relief,
Stick your ass on her tits
And give it the squits,
With purpose and strong self belief.
well.......that's a little harsh, doncha think? Randal is a regular poster, and and above average contributor. He got the limerick-like stuff rolling here, and maybe the following posters might not have contributed at his quality level, but I find it fairly amusing anyway.
As to stupid references to animal sex...well...I mean, you REALLY got to be bored to post stuff like that. Get a life, I suggest...like, even, watch TV instead of Glumbert once in a while.
OK, just to get away from cats, who else owns a dog and what (out of the ordinary) cool thing can the k9 do? I cant beleive the amount of cat videos on glumbert, this is getting to be to much.
y'know why, miter? because dogs do intelligent stuff everyday.....everyone expects smart stuff from them and they take little note when it happens. Cats, on the other hand, are to stupendously stupid, so irretrievably disinterested, so blindly instinctive...well, when they do anything at all a bit apart from cold, brainless, and inane activity, they are seen as spectacular.
Of course, tomorrow there will be hostile postings from the cat crowd. I need to say I have both here at home, and have for some years. My comments arise from close observation of both the animals (and their owners). Sorry....dogs rule, cats are behind snails on the trainable scale. But on the cuteness scale, well......furry beat slime everytime.
I agree with you guys. Dogs train pretty easily, show their devotion freely, and want to please. Plus they're really smart. For myself, always been more of a dog person than a cat person. But I also think, when we do see a cat the actually listens to a command, any command, it's pretty remarkable. I've never seen it happen before! Cats in general do not thrill me, but I thought this particular one was pretty exceptional. He looks like a real sweetheart, and pretty smart, for a cat.
mitercut, none of the dogs I've ever had did anything too out of the ordinary, just your basic doggy stuff. But my brother had a dog, years ago, that would "drop dead" when he pointed his finger at her and shouted "BANG". It was a riot.
chaz, that's an angle I didn't consider, and you're right. I have and have had, many cats and dogs and can relate. My personal "pet peeve" is cats don't belong indoors....or any animal that relieves itself indoors, in a box, flinging litter all over, getting all that grossness on it's paws, then walks all over the counters, beds, couch, chairs, dinning room table etc. Chews up the plants and pukes it up all over the place, then doesn't eat it back up!
freetobe..sounds like a cool dog, I had a dog when I was a kid that knew cus words, he would growl and bare his teeth when you cussed at it..thinking it was the "tone" of voice we would swear at it nice and sweet "oh what a nice little stupid shithead dog" he still growled and showed us his teeth...my current German shepherd is an amazing tracker, the nose on that dog is unreal! We just give him a "sniff" of something and command, SEARCH... no matter where it is he finds it! This would not be remarkable for a dog though, just amazing to watch!
He danced for those at minstrel shows and county fairs throughout the south He spoke through tears of 15 years how his dog and him traveled about The dog up and died, he up and died And after 20 years he still grieves
miter...my Bichon has an incredible nose...in-freaking-credible. He tends to get frenetic when played with, as in dashing to and fro, chasing whatever one might toss in his direction...and when we tire from the game, and want to calm him down, we "hide" the toy (could be a ball, or a "chewy", or anything that can be tossed)... and that little guy will wander around, locate the area we've hidden it, and go into a routine that includes standing on his hind legs and "begging", laying down and staring at the hiding place, or loudly sniffing and shifting his gaze between me and the hiding place. We finally figured out that the toy had to be put in the refrigerator, since he'd find it just about everywhere else.
On the other hand, if we don't put the cat food in the same place every day, I think our cuddly, long haired black kitty might actually starve to death.
As for indoor/outdoor cats....I vote for indoor (we've got one of those self cleaning litter boxes that makes life a bit easier). Where I live, we have coyotes...cats are like "Big Macs" to them. Plus, having had outdoor types before, I recall bunches of unpleasant experiences (birds, moles, mice...presented as gifts to us at the back door, screeching mating events, and two "rescue" missions to return this stupid species to earth after having climbed (#1) a tree, and (*#2) a telephone pole (that last one left ugly scratches on my chest) and so on.
FTB.... yeah, I've seen that "drop dead" thing too...can't remember exactly which of my past friends did it, but it was really a hoot. Can't recall much else he did, but that WAS a show-stopper.
chaz - had to smile about your Bichon, he must have tons of personality. And your black kitty, who would starve unless the food was in the same spot! Too funny. Do you think it's possible your "past friend" was my brother? LOL!
You have a kitty, and a dog. I always think it's amazing when a cat and a dog get along together, and become friends. Do they like each other, and accept each other?
From past experience, I guess I would have to agree with the indoor cat, although miter has a good point about sanitation, with walking all over the house after using the box. But, the outside cat has it's problems too. I had a cat, one time, and it was crazy for going outside. Spent most of his time outside, summer and winter. But, he was constantly getting into fights with other neighborhood cats, and it would cause infections. I had him at the vet every other week. An ordeal, to say the least. Lancing the wounds, giving him antibiotics one after the other. And even, a few times, bringing wounded baby rabbits and mice into the house. They weren't even dead, he was just playing with them. And one memorable occasion when I had to call the fire department, who used their ladder truck to get him down out of a tree he had been in for two days. Crying the whole time and bothering the neighbors. I think if I ever did have another cat, I would keep him/her inside. But since I don't really want a litter box to deal with, I'll probably just admire other people's cats for the time being!
FTB...I've had the both together for years (not the current cat and dog, but their predecessors as well)...and it has always been the same. The dog taunts, and wants to play, and the cat abides (or runs out of patience and hisses and sort of claws at the pup...but Bichons are very quick and rarely will get scratched). It's fun. The pup is too loveable, and the kit is, well, like a warm rag that likes being draped over your arm. Not too bad, after all.
