Ace of Spades Pet Thread, August 20

Good afternoon and welcome to the almost world famous Ace of Spades Pet Thread. Thanks for stopping by. Kick back and enjoy the world of animals.

Let's enjoy the world of animals and leave the world of politics outside today.

Would you like a cookie?

Dog Cookies

Hi;

I found this easy recipe for my dogs.

It's a pictorial.

That is Finn who would like another.

Looks like people could take a bite, too!

After we lost our Flat-Coated Retriever Fenway several weeks ago, we went and adopted a kitten from a rescue so our resident cat would have a playmate. Meet Smudge. We believe she has some (a lot?) of Maine Coon in her. The second photo is our first cat Dini (left) showing Smudge (right) the ins-and-outs of begging before the refrigerator gods. Smudge is about 4 months old now and is keeping house OCiS, including Dini, on our toes. She is a rabble rouser and not afraid to tangle with Dini.

The other night she was playing with some type of ping pong ball on the hard wood stairs. I still haven't figured out how she would get it back to the top of the stairs, but she would bat it down and chase it as it bounced off each step. Then back to the top, rinse and repeat.

Our Country is Screwed

Looks like she brightens the household!

Hey, K.T.! This is my cockatiel Tyson, so named because he is a total jerk and I have been threatening to make him into a chicken dinner since I got him as a baby 20+ years ago. We got him from a friend of my dad's who raised cockatiels. He has unusual coloring with no yellow or orange typically found in cockatiels.

He's a funny guy, if he doesn't get covered up by about 8:00 pm (bedtime) he starts whistling super loud until someone does it. Then he chitters to himself for a bit and goes to sleep. He also loves to hear sirens, crickets, and other birds on the TV, so we leave it on for him during the day while we're at work.

Thank you for all you do!

I'm a dispatcher for a freight broker/consolidator in Indianaplois. One of our drivers picked up a load late in the day and dropped it in one of our doors overnight. When the dock guy opened the door to unload this cat jumped out of the trailer and hid in the warehouse for two weeks. We hsve no idea how he got into the trailer. Evaded all attempts to catch him. Then one morning he just walked up to the boss like, "OK, you can feed me now." About 15 months old, no chip, very independent. He works in the warehouse at night and the office by day.
