Re: The evil b**tards
It happens so if you ever have a spare penny remember rescue centres.Dancing bears,orang u tan babies left to die slowly when the loggers have killed their parents,donkeys used until they drop-it goes on.

And don`t start me on home grown cruelty and neglect to cats and dogs in the so called `civilsed` country

Rescue a cat(or dog) at least. Cleo never did learn to control her paws-claws stuck in my tum when she is happy and wiping them on clean sheets at some awful hour when she went for a pee on a rainy night.But she is another girl from the little waif we rescued-didn`t purr and was afraid of her shadow

Re: The evil b**tards
The dog I have I bought from someone who advertised him on 'preloved'!!!!
he was being tormented by 2 children under 3 and 2 cats were making his life a misery, so much so the only place he could sleep was in the bathroom to get some peace from his tormentors, his previous owner had put him on high performance working dogs food and he was as round as a keg, we had to put him on different food and and a diet, he has lots of issues that I was unaware of when I got him 
but I wouldn't let him go, I have stuck with him, 
it's been hard work but he is such a nice dog!! June x

Re: The evil b**tards
Perhaps I`m being a touch arrogant but rescue dogs learn quickly? I`m as soft as melted butter in reality and when folks go past my gate I sometimes stop to chat and always talk to the dog as well.Two now come up for a hug(I`m told by one lady I`m unusual as her dog hates males) and another is now in that stage where she wags her tail but isn`t quite sure-the dog that is not the walker !!

OG, dogs seem to be very good at sensing when you like them and responding accordingly; also when they sense you fear them, as I know full well.Now cats, when someone comes who doesn't like them, will usually come very close and stare unblinkingly at the person as if they are perfectly aware it's unwelcome!

Re: The evil b**tards
DM cats are very odd. I love them to bits but,unlike a dog,they can be stupid.Next door got one years ago but he grew up in a place with a frisky dog,and they still have one.
Thomas never did become a lap cat,I find him everyday somewhere in my garden.
Good morning Thomas I say-no need to run away nobody is going to hurt you.
At best he still retreats and if caught by suprise runs away.
Daft cat-he has missed out on a few tummy scritches over the years
