Dogs Are Still Better Than Cats

Either

Hey look at what a distinguished specimen I am

OR

I am not gonna walk another damn step .....its cold and I want this thing off of me.

^^^^^

LOLOLOL

It was cold. And Margaret hates it when my wife puts a sweater or some kind of jacket on her.

I think Margaret is like "I'm a dog, I have this thing called fur/hair, which keeps me warm, so therefore I do NOT need a human to put an extra layer on me!!".

🦮🦮

I'm nominating Maggie for "What's Up" mascot.

Suntanning season is just around the corner. My Margaret found some warmth from the sun in the backyard this afternoon. 50 degrees here in DE today.

Margaret, in the backyard, playing by herself. And showing off her goods. 🙃🙃

It’s occurred to me that my dogs spend a significant amount of their waking hours desperately trying to figure out how to get me to throw the ball again.

My Maggie is the worst Retriever in the world. Throw a ball, she goes and gets it, and then she proceeds to lay down with it and NOT bring it back to me. 🤣

Our Aussie does the same thing but it's because she wants to play keep away, which I'm not doing. She also, when she brings does bring it back, drops it halfway across the room where I can't reach it. Sucks for her. Our Kerry Blue however brings it back to me again, and again, and again. Almost all evening every evening. I usually keep it going but do get distracted. With as intensely as they stare at me when I am distracted, if they had laser eyes I'd have been vaporized long ago.

Speaking of dogs are better than cats, there are 2 male cats that have been hanging around our house and marking outside for the last few months. What makes it even worse is that our cats like them and don't run them off. Anyway, daughter came running inside, beside herself, a little while ago and said that one of them just walked up in serious distress, so my wife and I went out to see. Something had destroyed that poor things face,

much of it hanging off, one eye missing and the socket full of freaking maggots

. It looked exactly like the dead cat from Pet Sematary. It made it to our deck and just laid down, crying. Was obviously just looking for something, anything, to help. Wife just took it to the after-hours vet where they'll likely euthanized. WTF? Why does that crap always seem to happen to us?

Sorry man. It went to a place it knew it would be safe and at least it will pass safe, and comfortably, rather than a tortured end.

Im guessing on this.... have you had " the talk " with this young man? I believe you should question his intentions.

Maggie, looking at me, but also looking at herself and her cookie/bone jars. 😊🥰

That's a case of..... " C'mon Hooman..... Imma telling yoose what I wants and what yoose needs to doose. Snaps to it. "

Our cat Pumpkin died Saturday. He had cancer and had been wasting away so we knew it was coming. Never expressed pain or discomfort so we just kept him comfortable here until the end. Everyone who visited loved him because he was the nicest cat you’d ever meet and he followed everyone everywhere outside. Drove me crazy because every time I backed my car up the driveway he’d get right behind the car and walk me all the way to my parking spot. Now I’m sad he’s not here to drive me crazy anymore. Funny how that works. And one thing I learned a long time ago, knowing that it’s coming doesn’t make it any easier when it finally happens.
