Precious furry friends.

Good Morning all. No wind, no rain and no sunshine yet. Hopefully, that is to come later on. 6:35 am here but that will be 5:35 am where you put back the clockerers are.
My favourite sections in this group are where the pictures of your pets are. You do have such gorgeous furry friends. I used to have cats but since we now have lots of birds in the back garden we are keeping doggies in place of moggies. The first two we had were brothers called Bobby & Monty. They are no longer with us but I would like to tell you about them. Watch out for a thread called Bobby & Monty. In the meantime, Have A Nice Day.

Hi Peripheral, I love Cats as well, as you probably have already seen my photos of Coco, if not, have a look on my Profile.

I have never regarded animals as friends. We have had loads of dogs and cats in the past as they have their uses. Animals should know their place, ours were never permitted in our living areas.

Thank you.
Thank goodness for that!!

I found Peripherals bold comic sans font very hard to read - especially as on some of posts there weren't any paragraphs.

Ours aren't friends either they are family ! Life revolves around them, dogs first children second and the rest of us somewhere at the rear. Works for us.

I think it is WRONG to put dogs before children. The social services should take them off you if that really is the case.

Yer Julie, about the same here. Maddie the cat can have the use of any chair or sofa that she likes and is always the first to be fed in the mornings....Those big staring eyes just turn me into a gibbering wreck.....

You keep wanting to take my children off me T just think about that for a moment we adopted, social services saw our home as a safe place for our child. Nothing you say will change that.

We get up in the morning dogs are fed first, child helps feed them she understands their needs can only be fulfilled by humans and it's important we do what we can to treat them kindly. She has her breakfast after them and I have mine while she is in the shower. Works for us, social services liked we were teaching her to not be selfish and to care for others, including animals.

It is wrong to treat animals as humans as you appear to be doing. Anyway we are never going to see eye to eye on this topic.
