QUOTE(Bofra @ Mar 6 2006, 03:49 AM) Yeah, yeah, you only wish you had a wolf instead of a dog as pet..  Actually, I rather let them roam free, I may have 1.5 acres but that isn't enough for a wolf, let alone its diet needs would not be met. In addition, I don't think the neighbors would like the idea... the howling, growling and prejudices would cause fear.... not like I would stop it because my paranoid neighbors were afraid =) But anyway, I also would like to mention a a mystery of a pet. In the fifth grade, I bought a lizard or what they called "baby dragons" because my family used to have a few but they died of age. I thought it would be nice, I brought it home and surprisingly my mom accepted it and we set our old lizard tank up (quite large) in my room. Weeks went by, I fed the cute little thing crickets like I always used to and gave it fresh water everyday. Anyway, on a weekend I went over my friends for a few hours, came back and the lid was up on the tank! But not only that, my dog was sitting in front of the tank staring at it. I believe my dog may have nudged the lid off and the poor lizard crawled out to its death of I left it open the the lizard was tracked down. I never found a little lizard body or anything, and both my mom and dad claim they would have never released it or anything.... I would call Scooby-Doo to solve this mystery but I'm afraid a dog ate the lizard... lol.. This post has been edited by Wurlon: Mar 7 2006, 03:41 AM

Dogs didn't evolve from wolves, they both evolved from a common ancestor.
Anyway, my old dog didn't have anything really crazy but he did make practice of obtaining his own food. Whether we fed him or not, it didn't matter, if ever he saw food it belonged to him. We would see bread packaging torn the shreds with not a slice to be found. I was at a friend's house (their dog would make practice of climbing on my dogs back, not humping him because he had no balls but poised to do so. My dog was sort of annoyed by it, but didn't understand what it was.) and walked right through the open door and snatch away their steak they had spent hours preparing. Naturally both myself and my dog made ourselves scarce.
There were also two beaches in my neighborhood (for a lake, this was in one of three places in California where it snows). One was a homeowners for neighborhood people like myself, and the other was the tourist beach that charged admission. The homeowner's beach had plenty of barbeques people could cook at, the tourist beach had employees running the barbeques on thr 4th of July. There was a river between the two beaches that if you had the balls you could swim across. So we were chilling at our beach, not eating food, left drooling over the delicious barbeque smells that were everywhere. My dog was with us, and occassionally he'd leave and come back, sit around for awhile, then leave and come back, sit around, then leave and come back. I heard from my friends who were hanging out at the tourist beach that he had been stealing people's food right off their plates, then running into the bushes while employees would chase him, swim across to our beach where they weren;t allowed, eat the food infront of all of them on the river's shore, then leave for a while, come back and do the same thing.

My cat (which I've given to my mother now) uses its paw to pick up food from the food bowl, then drops it onto the floor and eats it from there, or eats it directly from her paw if she can hold onto it for that long. Also she loved drinking water from the sink... My sister's cat jumps up to doorhandles and opens doors to rooms she is not allowed to be in. So now she always has to stay outside when my sister's family aren't home...

QUOTE(gamer10 @ Jun 21 2005, 09:05 PM) All I had were little frogs that I received when we finished a school project on them oh . . . 4 years ago . . . Until they ate each other, either that or they died and degraded overnight because all that were left was the skeletons. One lived of course, he died later of old age. I found this weird enough to post here. Though what exactly transpired remains a mystery to me. :eek: Man, now THAT'S wierd. Sounds like it was a freakish cannibal frog you got there or something. O_o ----------- Oh, and about funny pet stuff that my pet does; my cat loves to ride in a basket that I carry around in the house, she sits patiently in a basket or a box and waits for someone to pick it up. Well, ok, that's not wierd really, who wouldn't want to be carried around in a basket This post has been edited by Fethenwen: May 2 2006, 11:12 AM

Haha..yeah, they love to drag their food around the house. Many dogs do that, too. Usually it's the spot with the most expensive carpet. I think this is somehow linked to Murphy's law  QUOTE(Olav @ May 2 2006, 10:29 AM) Also she loved drinking water from the sink... Yeah. Most cats prefer running water. The idea is that water that is moving is usually fresh - like a river as opposed to some old murky puddle. QUOTE(Olav @ May 2 2006, 10:29 AM) My sister's cat jumps up to doorhandles and opens doors to rooms she is not allowed to be in. So now she always has to stay outside when my sister's family aren't home...  It's amazing what some cats can do. I once spent a vacation on a farm with my mom, with ponies and horses and rabbits etc, and all the vacation guests lived in this separate house. There was a common kitchen with one fridge everyone used. Including the farm's cat. He'd always go after the butter, the saussage, cheese and other goodies! We tried putting a frigging table in front of the fridge, to prevent him from getting it open. No such luck: next morning, the table was not in it's place anymore, and the food was eaten!  The guy who ran the place acknowledged that that was something we'd just have to live with. We all thought it was pretty funny and amazing.

QUOTE(minque @ May 3 2006, 09:19 AM) My furball....(norwegian forrest cat) jumps on my chest of drawers, during the night, in my bedroom, when I sleep, and start tossing things at me when he wants to get out..that is if I keep ignoring his persistent asking......  Hehe, awesome cat. Well I have 2 cats, one is a giant stupid furball who does too many funny things to list, the other is a cleaver little kittie, well actaully she is normal sized but small compared to my other cat; and she is a total attention hog, she always wants to be stroked but when you do she runs away and then waits for you to follow just because she likes showing her superiority. She will constantly ask to go in and out the window whenever somebody is around. She doesn't sit on anyone unless she knows she is disrupting something, if I pick up a book or xbox controller, she jumps right up, but if I don't have a book she never jumps up. If I am reading the paper she will sit on it. If I am on the computer she will walk on the keyboard untill I kick her out. Or if I am just lying around doing nothing she will come up to be stroked but once I do she will run away and make me follow like I mentioned above, but if I do manage to get her sitting in one place to be stroked then as soon as I stop stroking her she will try to attack my hand. She'd be annoying if she wasn't so cute. This post has been edited by Pisces: May 5 2006, 10:39 AM
