Tuesday: OK, then let him observe therapy sessions of people who are trying to deal with the loss of a four legged family member.................................he can clean the do do later
Jim Dandy: I can understand why you would want to clone a beloved pet.....but cloning is such dodgy ground...I disagree with anything which meddles with nature in that way
Lambyless: She's only 7,let's see in 10 years or so how far it has come.She'll probably outlive me anyway,and I'm going to be stuffed and placed in my comfy livingroom chair.
Subjekt: Re: I googled to find a Lassie,Vick connection
Jim Dandy: OMG! That was TOOOOO funny!!! I have often thought (but would NEVER do lamby,lol) what Damien would be like cloned...would he be Damien,or not be Damien...just to weird of a concept there for me,lol...
I watched Vick at half-time during the game give his..I am so sorry speach..not only did he not apoligize to the animals lovers...but what about his own family?? I heard not one time that he was sorry for discracing them as well.....all tho his Mum thinks he has suffered enough..Let me in a room with him for 10 minutes...he will know excatly what those dogs felt..AGH! makes my blood pressure go up just thinking about that man! I had to get up and leave the room because I couldn't stand the sound of his voice anymore.I hope he suffers.

anastasia: Yes,it would mess with my head too.The "essence" of my prior buddy would be gone anyway,so what's the point.Molly was a ferile cat prior to us adopting her,I spent many hours working with her to attain the trust level we have reached.Pet and people relationships are similar when we consider that the special nature of each of those relationships are based on day to day experiences,there are no shortcuts in reaching that place.I will say,that ever since I had to carry my boy Zeuss off the road after a tragic accident I did search for another black cat who resembled him,so Molly is a bit of a clone,but in a natural way.

Tuesday: RIN TIN TIN never got over his bitterness of becoming second fiddle to Lassie.To this day the fan clubs hold seperate picnics far apart from eachother,old wounds die hard
Tuesday: As much as I hate to kill things, sometimes you have no choice. I had a small mouse-in-the-house problem that turned into an all-out "mouse encampment" a few years ago (we live in the woods). I tried the "humane" traps (they LOVE peanut butter, btw) but eventually had to take em out one-by-one (they say rabbits multiply - ha-ha). I found a battery-operated trap that you put food in and when the mouse entered it, they were zapped in seconds. Cruel, I know, but they went quickly, no screeching, no lingering, no long-term suffering. The problem with poisoning something is that it doesn't die right away & suffers (same with those awful glue things). This trap was really, really quick, they died instantly. I apologize to all mouse-loving people reading this, I love em too, but when it got to a point where they were pooping in my clothes in my drawers, enough was enough...
srnity: We had a mouse come in 2 years ago and I named him Gus-Gus,lol....well,my husband humored me and let me try live traps....I was woke early one morning to Gus-Gus running into the trap..I don't mean he WENT into the trap..I mean he hit the darn thing,lol....I was cheering him on...come on Gus-Gus..get in the trap!!! Well....Gus-Gus went over the trap...he was getting onto my nightstand and getting to close for comfort for me..I know they are cute but they also carry diesaese and didn't want him in the houe any longer then he had to be.Wouldn't use poiseon cuz he could run off and die in a wall or summin...ewwww,lol...Hubby said we had to use glue traps...GAWD I HATE THOSE THINGS!! they are horrible...we got rid of Gus-Gus tho...I guess death in any form is ugly
anastasia: well, my mouse story was RATS. Now, I like rats.... but I don't trust the wild ones because of diseases. They are a bit of a problem in the area where I live.
We had a couple get into our house, and we figured they'd just get back out again. <buzzer> Wrong answer Jack! In a couple of months we have over 30 rats running though the house. Up in the attic, running up and down inside the walls. I didn't want to kill them, so I plugged up the holes they were chewing with steel wool, All that did was make them FURIOUS and they would actually eat through the steel wool. We tried the live traps, glue traps & Dcon poison. None of that worked. They'd walk right through the glue traps, and DCon was just a tasty snack, literally. They had green poop from it. lol.
Not only were they in our clothes, and destroying the house, they were also in our stock for sale we kept there. I lost several thousand $$ worth of clothing. They also damaged the wiring in the walls.
After 6 months, we gave up and bought some poison called Havoc. They were dead within 2 to 3 days. Uh, we did have to kinda move out for a week though, since they died inside the walls. 30 dead rats were a bit smelly.
Now the next winter, we had 1 more get in, but he was behaved, and would stay in one corner. In the spring, he disappeared so I think he actually left. I think i finally found the break in the foundation where they were getting in, and now we don't get visitors anymore.
Eriisa: OMG!! I think I would have moved!! Actually...I was watching a show about infestations on rats and mice....bugs,stuff like that and they had cameras set up in this one couples house in New York City...guess it was a condo or something actually...anywho,they had literally HUNDREDS of rats running through the attic and walls...they DID have to move...not sure what they did to solve the problem tho,I can't remember,lol....The rats in NY aren't affraid of humans anymore and they say that they have to keep changing the poisons for them and roaches because every so many months the new babies are immune to the poisons....thats a scary though,huh??
Hi I,m a mouse and I have a human problem. Its like this, this human lives in my house and for some reason or other acts like it owns the place. It keeps planting silly traps with moldy bread and cheese in front of my door and I keep nearly running into it. What is the aim of that? Does anyone know? Surely it could put it somewhere else if it really needs to do that. Also if this human does not leave my property soon I am gonna have to charge it rent. Can anyone help? Thanks!
Humans are a big problem to us mice. There are just far too many of them in my opinion. However I do have friends who say that I should live and let live.
