Oh, that's got to be simply dreadful.
My little doggie is scared of the rain, and she hides and cries... The cat couldn't care less if there was a gun battle outside. |
I live in a city, so the most 'wildlife' we get are stray dogs and cats everywhere. And rats, roaches, that sort of thing. [sweat] |
We have a few renegade chickens in our neighborhood, believe it or not, and I saw a peacock wandering around uptown once... just strutting around.
Squirrels, because there's trees... rats, too. Pretty much it, I think, aside from cats, dogs, pigeons, the usual. |
I think Sweet Pea just knows its a predator. For all I know, she can smell it.
My cats don't really freak out, neither did our dog. I worked with some of the animals in my hometown after the tornado that happened, and they were scared to death whenever there were high winds. Most of them are alright now, three years on, but I do know one little dog that has to take what's basically the doggy version of Xanax when there's severe weather. And there is this cat that lives at my dad's nursing home, and we're pretty sure he is a tornado displaced cat who's owner was killed, and he's skittish as all get out. |
My cat was rescued from an abandoned warehouse, and they were going to put her down and then I wound up with her when I met the person who rescued her.
She was classed as "feral, and hopeless". She was completely antisocial, feral, or whatever, and I mewed at her and she came to me and let me pet her, and they just gave her to me. Said she was obviously supposed to be mine. *is a cat whisperer* She sleeps on me. |
I kind of miss having a pet rat... |
If my cat was more tolerant, I'd have one, anytime.
But yeah, cat. |
Haha, that's what my parents keep saying to me every time I tell them I want a pet snake. That it'll eat my guinea pig. >__> |
I couldn't have a pet snake, even if it was non-venomous and only ate crickets or something, I'm so totally phobic about snakes.
They scare me so bad. |
But they're adorable. D:
I used to have a pet mouse, and then Sweet Pea decided she was going to be my only pet. So she killed Vera. Didn't eat her, just murdered her in cold blood. o_o |
[gonk] |
Sweet Pea is a wonderful mouser. And she never wasted them, she'd eat what was apparently the good parts anyway, but not with Vera. I swear, she wanted to make a point. [gonk]
|
Poor Vera. :c |
I love rats, but I love cats too, so I'm kinda screwed either way...
I'd need my cat to become a Buddhist or something... |
I guess at least one of them would have to be constantly under watch so the cat doesn't kill the rat. [sweat] My pet mouse and rat were always in their cages unless I'm holding them so they should be safe from a cat...but probably not a snake as I've heard how snakes are able to wriggle their way through small spaces... |
I just don't think I'm that good of a pet mommy that I'd be able to manage it all properly...
And if someone died and was eaten as a result, I'd feel like utter pooh. |
My poor mouse was in her cage. Sweet Pea opened the cage.
Some cats don't like bugaboos. None of ours would touch a roach with a ten foot pole. Locusts were a different story, but they never ate the roaches. |
Maybe the roaches smell or something. :c |
I dunno. They don't like something about them though.
|
Well I suppose that would explain why more people eat locusts than roaches...o Ao |
I couldn't even imagine. [gonk]
|
Me neither. [XD] |
The guy who eats live roaches was telling that roaches secrete some kind of a smell when it senses it's on danger, but 'once you get past the smell' it tastes good [rofl]
|
Ah, so it is a smell problem. [lol] |
So the smell IS from the roaches! I always thought it was bug spray, but it was the roaches! I could never figure out why it always smelled like bug spray. It was the roaches making that smell. My cat chases roaches, so they get a little uncomfortable. xD I WANT TO KNOW WHERE THE HECK THEY ARE COMING FROM |
