Ace of Spades Pet Thread, December 9
* * *
* * *
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.
Would you like a treat?
Let's relax a little with the animals and leave the world of politics and current events outside today.

Most Intelligent Dogs?
Fun read even though it is full of lies, and in spite of the ads, because the French Bulldog is not mentioned at all!

This is a goofy song about a goofy cat. (The song is goofy because it has no meter, only half the lines rhyme, etc.; it's just a little something a guy is humming to himself.) It makes two points: (1) she's very fat; (2) she's the love of the narrator's life.
Whom can I turn to
When my spirits are low?
My only mistress,
My calico!

I like the poetry. The music is no Bohemian Catsody, thank goodness. Love is evident in this offering of devotion.

Hi there,
if I did this right you should find attached photos of Sammy (born Samson) who is one year old this month (November) and a mix of black Labrador retriever and Cane Corso. We think/fear he has a little bit more to grow, but he is already 75+lbs . . . and we love him to death of course!
We adopted him from-a shelter at age 3 months. He loves meeting people and other pets especially more retrievers and he absolutely adores chasing balls and chewing bully sticks. The squirrels however are at great risk....
Thanks for what you do,
Vox Clamantis
He has a lot of personality! And he sounds big!

Well, normally we would include so many photos from one household, but the contrasts here are extraordinary:

Hey K.T.
Occasional commenter, but mostly lurk. I've had several Great Danes and cats over the years. The mostly white dane is Mule, and the blue one is Hogan. The cat is Joey. The pic with two cats includes Joey's mom, Lela.

Wow! There are some dramatic photos there. The dogs are dramatic on their own. And it's unusual to see such big dogs with such little cats! There is some kitty personality coming through, too!

If you start feeling nostalgic, here a link to last week's Pet Thread, the Ace of Spades Pet Thread, December 2 Some special PetMoron stories and photos there.
I closed the comments on this post so you wouldn't get banned for commenting on a week-old post, but don't try it anyway.
