My relationship with my daughter's cat has greatly improved; if I had better tech skills I'd post you some truly humiliating stuff.

Posted

We've always had cats and dogs, which has made for interesting pet politics.

When we rescued Puffin, she was desperate for someone to play with. The other dogs firmly rejected her, so she turned to the cats.

Trying to play with Azathoth didn't work out so well:





A couple of years later we rescued Simon, an orange stray cat, and our other cats absolutely hated him with the hate of a thousand suns.

Lacking accepting peers, Puffin and Simon got together and became best buddies. We see them playing together all the time. My wife calls them "the gingers", since they both have quite a bit of red/orange in them.



Puffin and Azathoth found a mutually agreeable arrangement eventually, too -- Azathoth is too thick and stiff these days to clean her own butt, so Puffin does it for her. The look of contentment on both their faces afterwards borders on the obscene.

:D

 

The things animals find pleasurable is truly bizarre. My Jack Russell puppy was sick, so, not wanting to leave anything to waste, she tried eating it again straight afterwards. I mean if it makes you sick once, why try it again, right? :D

Puffin: stop licking that pussy!

 

(My neighbour has a Kings Charles cross that I walk, that insists on licking her black and white young cat......... so that is where that comment comes from).

India: Thieves arrested for using monkeys in robberies

Two men have been arrested for using monkeys to terrorize and rob people in New Delhi. The animal accomplices have been sent to a rescue center.

Two men have been arrested in India’s capital city of New Delhi for using monkeys to threaten and rob unsuspecting victims, police said on Saturday.

Last month, a victim reached out to authorities after three men with monkeys surrounded him as he was traveling in south Delhi. He was robbed of 6,000 rupees ($80, €67), according to local media outlets. 

"When the victim was sitting in an autorickshaw, the men also entered (the vehicle) and asked one monkey to sit on the front seat and another at the back," a local police official told the AFP news agency. "They took the money the lawyer had in his wallet and fled with the monkeys."

As it was a "strange case involving monkeys, a dedicated team was constituted to catch the culprits." Two perpetrators were arrested with their animal accomplices at a bus stop on Thursday. The third thief, Ajay, has not been apprehended. 

The monkeys have been sent to an animal rescue center.

"A case has been registered under Indian Penal Code Sections 392 for robbery at Malviya Nagar police station. Relevant provisions of the Wildlife Protection Act have been added against the accused in the case," said Delhi’s Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Atul Kumar Thakur.

Several urban areas in India have been struggling to deal with the menace posed by monkeys, which often enter homes in search of food and attack unsuspecting victims. However, under a 1972 law, it is illegal to capture the animals.

Probably gonna get my Man Card revoked for posting this, but there’s a really cool free app called Merlin that’s basically a Shazam for birds and is really addictive. Step into your yard, press record, and it returns a list of bird species currently in your yard based on the noises they’re making.
