I'm pretty sure they're just dicks.
lol, I was going to write something along those lines too. I love having a cat around, but they are total jerk bags 90% of the time.

It really depends on the cat. One old roommate's cat was a total sweetheart. If you pet and scratched her she liked it so much she'd drool. If I was sitting at the 'server' PC we had running on a table behind the couch, she would often perch back legs on the couch back and front legs on my shoulders making biscuits and rubbing her head all over the back of mine. Sometimes after a jaunt outside she'd bring us presents too. Usually it was lizards that once she gave them to us, we could deposit them out of sight and they were fine. I miss that cat.

^gorgeous.

Pack of Wolves is cool. Gaggle of Geese is a little funny. A Pride of Lions shouts respect. But by far my favorite plural for animals is:

A Murder of Crows.

If you didn't already know this, ask your friends "what do you call a flock of crows?", and when you give them the answer I guarantee they'll give you the "oh man that's cool" look.

That is cool (and true!)...but personally, I prefer a manslaughter of sparrows and a vehicular-homicide of robins...there is also a jaywalking of guinea pigs, but that does not seem as cool for some reason.

A murder of crows is undoubtedly one of the best, but I'm pretty partial to a smack of jellyfish.

Touchdown !!!

With this...

Image

No more need for this...

Image
Image

No more foaming at the mouth. Both me and the cat I mean.
No more soft pills with saliva everywhere but in the kitty.
No more pissing on my lap. Oh yes, she went there...

Check this guy out to see how not to do it.

His mistakes. Towel not tight enough, and using a towel in the first place, which stresses kitty out. Using a pill shooter without grips like you see in the top picture. And most probably the same problem as below...

Had to tweak the pill shooter a little. There's two little cuts in the rubber tip, one on each side. So when you pull both sides apart you can put the pill in. It's like a little beak that holds the pill. Only thing is, the cuts are too deep, and when you push the plunger down, the little stick that pushes the pill out wedges the pill between the stick and the rubber. Not exactly what I had in mind. So I took some tape and put it around the rubber tip making the cuts on each side smaller. No more wedged pills. They come out just fine now...

Took me about five seconds per cat to give their pill with this thing... :D :D :D

This is Creampuff, a dog broke her leg on Saturday and she had surgery today to repair the bone (they put a rod inside her upper leg bone). It will take about 6 weeks to heal.

^ Poor thing. :( I hope all goes well during her recovery.

That kinda makes me feel horrible about laughing hysterically at this picture of my cat sitting on her paws. haha

Aw, poor kitty :( I hope she has a speedy recovery (and doesn't get into any more fights with dogs. It can't be fun to have a rod put into your leg.)
