    I had a cat... Second one ran away as well :(( I suspect they get bullied away by the 10+ neighborhood cats... Rest assured, the next cat won't be allowed outside for the first year or so and after that only with GPS...

    To misquote Oscar Wilde: "To lose one cat may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness." Perhaps you should consider a goldfish?

      Just a silly question: do you have a pet? If so, what is it? I know that Sander - @Sanderrossel - has a cat. I have a cat, but I'm broadminded and don't mind dogs. Just remember: a dog may be man's best friend, but a cat won't tell the police where you hide your drugs ...

          I have an orange tabby cat, and a Newfoundland-Collie mix doggo. Rescued the cat when he was just a few weeks old, from the side of the road. Dog was taken to the shelter when he was about 5, and I scooped him up shortly after. Both are good, chill companions. :)

              Don't know. Perhaps [give them this](https://i.pinimg.com/474x/1b/78/bd/1b78bd91851d7eafc776b637f80c6d49--quiet-books-book-pages.jpg) and let us know the outcome?

                          Pet rock, from the 70's. Doesn't eat much.

                          If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

                                      I grew up with both cats and dogs. (and an old fashioned small scale farmer as a neighbor) Now I have none, for logistical reasons. But I have two children, and I can assure you dogs are easier to train.

                                          I have two pugs a he and a she - both over 14 years old. ( although my sister always wonders why we call them 'fixed' when they are obviously broken)
