      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 ...

      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.

                                  Dogs have owners, cats have staff. We have a Bichon Frise (think poodle with shorter legs). She thinks and acts like a male dog, a very stubborn and stand-offish male dog - but my wife still loves her. We call her "a mostly good dog".

                                      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 ...

                                      We have a Blonde Cocker Spaniel named Bogey...best dog we've ever owned with one exception...not so great with small kids. (he snapped at my 16 m/o grandson last weekend...can't handle being beat on) :)

                                        My son named them when he was 5. They were the new cats, after my other two died (at 13 years): Pyanfar and Scheherazade.

                                          I left with a pair of parrots and four kids. Had more but died out slowly... Plan to bring in a dog. Also feed some 3-4 cats living under our house, but those not really belong to no-one...
