Not necessarily favorite but foxes are definitely up there. Look how purty.

hyena. just because it looks cool and is a total asshole.

I got to pet and feed a giraffe once. It was weird because their tongue wraps around your arm and pulls the lettuce out from your hand. Simply put it was rough, slimey, and sticky (no other way to put it). Their necks feel very strong and muscular and their fur is rather coarse.

Give it a little bit of honey and introduce extreme flowers.

Just put the honey near it or they die.

>>2343810
But i read they shouldnt be given honey.

>>2343813
That's because people feed it to them, I said leave some nearby.

My mom had two cats who had continuous nasal discharge for their entire lives. She has the same issue where the cats are tested for infection but nothing comes up.

It might not be an infection but allergens or a virus.

Have your cat tested for allergens, and viruses like feline herpes.

I know it's web md but yeah, there's some examples.

And I'd recommend trying another vet if your vet didn't think that it might be from a virus instead of an infection.

Apparently he started sneezing just before I adopted him. I feel like the best course of action would be to just stop giving him anti biotics and let his body do the work

>>2343660
just swap it for a non-faulty unit

>You guys got any purebred dogs?
Yes. You can find them in any of the many dog threads, already on the catalog.

How do I determine if the puppy is going to grow into a big dog?

>>2343683
look at the proportionate size of the feet as the little madcunt grows

>>2343388

hey OP

what sort of cat do you think this is


ya feel me?

I think you can get it done at the vet for fairly cheap

>>2343313
this kills the tarantula :^)

>>2343313
Why would you?

>>2343280
If you are not already vegan then yea, you should watch it. If you are then nah, you probably understand how bad it is already.

>>2343280
fuck cows

>>2343280
I watched it. Leftist propaganda cherrypicking the worst pictures available.

It's ok to watch, though, but don't believe everyone is shit toward animals.

oh yes, i still remember those fucking arboreal octopodes

>>2343266
Only thing I remember off the top of my head were the silver spiders that farmed up a bunch of hamsters.

>>2343256
>I'm genuinely curious if these could actually show up in the far future or if they're just the product of fever dreams?
Nobody can or will know. That's why it's called Speculative Biology.

Though I do remember an article about the flish not being the right shape and what it would take for it to be functional.

>>2343189
Its somewhat normal, especially in cats adpoted before they are 3 months old like yours. She thinks you are her mom.

>they are the biggest cat breed, the great danes of the cat world

So I adopted a cat that is going to weigh 35 to 40 pounds. She does the ear suck thing too still.

yeah most cats that get separated from their mums that age will do this forever.

seems like they don't react well to anything else

My vote goes to cropped ears. Makes a dog look serious and alert like a Doberman, to down right terrifying such as a battle dressed pit.

>>2343156
yes

Can't believe I forgot to type that.

>So it turns out dinosaurs have a completely different classification
It's an hypothesis, and not a very good one.

the authors have to say Herrerasaurus ISN'T a theropod to get their hypothesis to work.

ignoring the obvious flaws in their methodology, this initial assumption is fucking daffy. Herrerasaurus has too many shared traits with theropods to be a simple case of convergence. Nobody is going to buy this load of shit. It will be forgotten by this time next year.

>>2343005
They're really easy to take care of, bit considered agricultural terrorists in some countries. One this size would need a somewhat large tank (10-20 gallon maybe) and coconut shavings mixed with water and drained. They eat carrots oats and cucumbers so its not to much to feed them and its fun to watch them eat. You have to make sure their tank's nice and humid though. And they live for 20+ years.

>>2343005
Neat. I'd get one if I could find one. Alas, they are illegal and difficult to find here

>>2343018
>20+ years

My bad. They've been known to live ten years in captivity.

>>2342936
More cats

>>2342936
Yeah, UK should choose a more suitable bird like a cuckatoo.

from the article

>As a fervent beach-bird botherer, I’d have opted for something truly symbolic of our island’s shores – how about the cuckoo, the time-honoured signifier of spring and usurper of other birds’ nests – surely a suitable symbol of our colonial past?
