They call him "Houston" because he has no zoning ordinance and owns three strip clubs.
Congrats, Brian.

Well he has clearly broken any chance of you sitting on the sofa. Looks like he is pretty happy and comfortable.brian wrote: ↑Thu May 30, 2019 9:43 pmYeah it’s a specimen isn’t it?

And his one problem is he didn’t go to Russia that night because he had extracurricular activities, and they froze to death.
Re: Man's Best Friend
Sorry Toby. Hopefully it's as slow moving as possible and he can't be bothered to care why you're being extra nice to him.

We signed a lease addendum (and coughed up another $200) this week for the shore house we're renting at the end of the summer to allow us to bring the mutt along. Should be different. MFer better be cool and not get us in trouble.

Re: Man's Best Friend
Got back from a week long trip yesterday... There's nothing like the joy of a dog reuniting with its pack. And in this case, my daughter is home from school and is the dog's favorite, so it was extreme joy.

Well, after her struggle with heart issues, today was the day. Give your pups an extra treat tonight, Clarice's orders.

Sorry to hear.
That day is fast approaching for my 16 year old Maine Coon, who now weighs less than 3 lbs and just lies in our bed most of the time. I'll give him some extra rubs per Clarice's orders.

Thanks guys. The kids are handling it as well as I could hope for. Knowing it was coming helped soften the blow, but it's still going to be a rough week with all the little reminders of her around the house.

Re: Man's Best Friend
Hinted at it above, but today's the day for my 16 year old cat. The summer after law school my wife and I had moved in together and I left one morning to study for the bar. As I walked to my car, I saw a white cat with a grey spot hiding under my tire. When I got closer, the white cat ran off and the grey spot stayed. He was no bigger than my fist and neither my wife nor I had ever had a cat, or had any desire to own a cat. We found him on a Sunday, so there wasn't a place that we could take him until the vet opened the next day. When we took him in, he was no more than a pound, had fleas, worms, and a few other maladies. We nursed him back to health and he's been with us for 16 years.
He's been such a sweet boy the entire time, abiding the fact that we got a puppy shortly after we got him, and generally being a loveable furball. The past few months have been rough as his decline has gotten steeper, he's been less willing, or able, to groom himself. His gums and mouth are red and bleeding often. As I type this, he's climbed on my stomach, with no idea. I know there's nothing else I can do for him, but this is gonna be a rough one.

Re: Man's Best Friend
Sorry Chedda. Sucks.
Our three cats are each 14 and our dog is 11. In a couple years, I'll probably be making sad posts here on the reg.

Thanks everybody. It's been a rough couple of days. The kids don't know yet (they left for the N.C. foothills on Saturday). Not looking forward to that conversation.

Re: Man's Best Friend
Thanks. I can tell you that seeing some shots of LJam's new kitten on FB have helped. My guy looked a bit similar, without the white, and was way better at chess.
