funny pet stuff... Options

[Dantrag]

Just want to ask people about crazy stuff their pet(s) do(es).

My dog will sit in his pen and bark, so I let him out. Then he will walk right back into the pen and start barking again...This is a daily thing.

And then my snake tries to eat mice sideways...spending hours trying to eat it. And ends up leaving it on the ground.

Share your stupid/funny pet stories!

(wow i'm bored, starting this thread...)

I guess this would be the most appropriate place to put this. I have an after-hours office job and tonight I saw one of the cruelest animal things I think I've ever seen.
There is this Advertising office and I had to go in there. They pride themselves on having very avante guard decorations & really they do. But, I was walking around, looking for a paperpunch and all of a sudden I saw movement on the wall by the lightswitch.
When I looked there, there was a totally empty halfround/flat-to-the-wall fishtank stuck up on the wall and one little purplish blue fish in it. He was following my every movement around the room. I mean, the whole tank was nothing but whiteness except for him ... he just looked so lonely. When I'd put my finger up to the glass, he'd go to where it was outside the tank. I just felt really bad for him. Such a bleak existence for a fashion statement.

So, I left a note up on the wall and said "This fish needs some vegetation, or another fish or pebbles or something. He looks too lonely." So, I don't care if they don't like that I wrote that or not - I think that poor little fish will die of loneliness or just the shock of all that bleak nothing in his environment. Nature is not that way for fish.
