Title: A gift from someone who knows me!
Post by: sunjester on 01 August 2019, 08:37:24 AM
This was my birthday present last month from an old friend who obvious knows me quite well.

It's multi purpose, I can turn it over and use it as a drinks tray or a cheese board as well!  ;D

When would you ever turn it over for cheese? The top message remains in play ...

I want two (one in feline - the new kittens have a few things to learn).

What ?.......How to sharpen their claws on items that are precious to you ?........Horizontally pee in electrical sockets, so you get a damn good belt when you see said socket is 'smoking', and go to switch it off  as quickly as possible ?

Better still, do the horizontal pee in nice bits of 'hi-fi' equipment....and completely wreck them.

I think cats are great, truly.......as long as they belong to someone else. ;)

Had far too many, to ever want any more. :P

Many times I'd have dried up and been scattered in the wind if kitties hadn't kept me alive emotionally. I can tolerate their little ways.

Love the gift and I say somebody likes you very much! I'm pretty sure the only one I ever get is the monthly one my Electric Company sends me!!!!

As for cats, I am not too fond of them, because they are predators. Bunnies are not....well, unless you're a banana, a baseboard, a door jamb, an exposed electrical cord, my dress shoes, the back of our sofa and several chairs, and finally, just about every rug in the house!!!! But you've got to love them because they are just being bunnies.  They gnaw stuff to keep their front teeth worn down because they never stop growing.

Dad, I don't know who made that mess....maybe it was that other bunny!!!!

Sweetheart, I found out why the keyboard doesn't work!

How can anyone be upset after seeing this!  I sure can't!

Cute !!  :)

Maybe the 'bun' was trying to connect itself to the PC, so it could act as an organic replacement for the mouse. :D

Many years ago we used to foster buns for the RSPCA, before our local re-homing centre was built, and on one occasion we had 16 rabbits in the garden. We had been asked to look after 2 does who both turned out to be pregnant. We learned how to tell the sex of a baby rabbit really quickly that month, so we could separate them asap.

We ended up keeping an albino angora that had come in as a neglect case (he looked like a tiny lamb after he had been shaved). Originally we were only going to have him until someone with experience of caring for angora came along, but that never happened. We were told he was safe to keep on the lawn as angoras did not dig very much. That went well until I nearly broke my ankle when I fell down a sink hole in the middle of the lawn, obviously we had got the Evil Genius angora and he was building his secret base under our feet! :d

Absolutely NOT, Ian..... ;) ;D ;D ;D

From Graham's post......

My sink hole's in the kitchen, under the taps.  ;) ;D ;D ;D

The wild, native bunnies are very prone to doing little 'scrapes ' in the fields from time to time......sometimes to the point of starting a burrow.

Those
just HAVE to be filled in with stones/rocks....so the gee-gees don't end up breaking  a leg.

Hmmmmm.......Now I've plonked that down, it makes me realise that I've not seen anything remotely like the normal number of 'bunnies' in the fields this year.
Don't believe there's been an excess of foxes to keep them down.......Yet another sign how the balance of nature is sadly moving very drastically at the mo'.  :(

I could drone on and on....(That'd be a change !  ;))....About how the wild bird population has changed to the nth degree in the last 10 years, as well. :(

I blame Michael Fish.
