share your stories when your pets were still babies
I came home from school and we had recently got 2 Australian Shepard pups both female, was leaving to go to work put them in there crate came back not only had they got out of their crate, I saw feathers everywhere around the house. I was putting everything together, my sisters bird cage was crushed and the birds were no where to be found, one survived by hiding in the closet, but died soon after the ordeal was over.
RIP Birdgil, Glenn, and Oprah

What's /an/s opinion on the Greyhound?
9/10 as a pet typically
Ugly mini skinny face and head are only drawback
>>2252488
The result on endless years of in-breeding has reduced it into an ugly af monstrosity of its former ancestors.
>>2253002
I don't think it has an ugly face. So that makes it a 10/10 for me, huh?
The italian greyhound on the other hand... I understanf they must be sweet, but god they're ugly
Yo what happens if I start making steak dinners for my pet rabbit?
Did you use salt and pepper?
It might develop a prey drive and aggressive tendencies, similar to the wild baby-eating pit bunny.
>>2252373
It won't eat it, you retard.
And even if you somehow did manage to get the food into its stomach it wouldn't be able to digest it.
Ok im making a thread
I need help with my guinea pig, if anyone has legitimate experience with guinea pigs and knows their helath problems, I would love some knowledge and insight
my guinea pig is making hacking sounds like shes trying to throw up, she is bobbing her head, but all that comes out is clear spit that looks like drool.
she has not eaten anything since i noticed (2 hours ago). She even turned her head away from a carrot i offered her.
I called 6 vets and no one knew anything. emergency vet wont see her tonight.
how bad is it /an/? Im so fucking worried. shes so cute and sweet and furry.
Even her body feels different, very tense and tight, I can feel all her bones. Normally she is soft and fluffy and feels fat.

AIDS virus
>>2251984
Starving because of tooth damage, she's probably going to take irreversible damage tonight from starvation and have a significantly shorter lifespa
It sounds pretty bad. :(
If you have a syringe, try feeding her some water or baby food to keep her going. Guinea pigs can't throw up, but hacking sounds typically mean pneumonia, which can kill pretty fast. Make sure to keep her hydrated and get her to a vet asap... Good luck!
So, anyone here leash train their cat? How is it?
I want to adopt a cat some day. Is it impossible to leash train adults? Is it dangerous? I imagine coming across dogs is intimidating.
why would you leash train an adult though.
if you're going to keep your cat indoors and leash train it you might as well get a aesthetic pure breed cat rather than some ugly boring mutt.
>>2251817
Only idiots buy a purebred cat.

>get a harness for my cat as he always wants to go outside in our big back yard
>put harness on him, making sure it's not too tight but not so loose he can slip out
>cat.exe has stopped working
>watch as he just lays there unable to do anything for 15 minutes
I do not know what to do if I can't get past this phase.
This dog is a racist. Only loves whites. Okay with hispanics and Asians because he considers them white.
So he's human and hates blacks like everyone else.
>>2251515
white, hispanic and asian girls love black men though
Dogs don't see the world the same way people do. To a dog, a black person looks like someone wearing a mask.
Try wearing a mask around a dog, they don't like that shit.
friendly reminder that if your pets don't have a water fountain, you're abusing them
I have a plastic bowl that I just poor water into whenever it's empty.
Sometimes my dog has to whine to let me know it's empty though, I usually don't bother to check it for a few days.
yeah let's make things even more overly complicated to clean.
>washing 2 extra parts once a week
>overly complicated
how do i know you have cats?
Are u man enough to do the bullet and glove ritual?!?
>mabye even for a 100 bucks

Am I supposed to put my wee wee in there

>The Sateré-Mawé people intentionally use bullet ant stings as part of their initiation rites to become a warrior.[3] The ants are first rendered unconscious by submerging them in a natural sedative and then hundreds of them are woven into a glove made out of leaves (which resembles a large oven mitt), stinger facing inward. When the ants regain consciousness, the boy slips the glove onto his hand. The goal of this initiation rite is to keep the glove on for a full ten minutes. When finished, the boy's hand and part of his arm are temporarily paralyzed due to the ant venom, and he may shake uncontrollably for days. The only "protection" provided is a coating of charcoal on the hands, supposedly to confuse the ants and inhibit their stinging. To fully complete the initiation, however, the boys must go through the ordeal a total of 20 times over the course of several years.
>and he may shake uncontrollably for days
top kek
Would it be irresponsible to get a Leonberger if I live in a 3 bedroom house?
The size of your house doesn't matter, it's the size of your yard that counts.
Keep it outside dumbass
It's maybe irresponsible towards your kid if you have one because large dogs have tiny life spans.
I saw this outside my house earlier. What is this?
It's a bird dude

so which breed is going to be the next "worlds most aggressive dog" after the pitbulls reputation runs its course like the doberman and rottweiler in the late 90s/2000s.
>>2249268
American Pitbull Terrier is overall the strongest and most useful breed of all time. So I don't think anything can surpass it. Of course, the bad side to this popularity is ghetto people using the breed for fights, irresponsible owners getting them but not socializing them properly,etc.
There's not gonna be a next, Pitbulls are the best dogs.
fingers crossed for shiba inu
but probably a dogo argentino or cane corso
pit bulls are banned here an d those seem to be the white trash dogs of choice
>>2249268
None
Pit bulls will always be at the top due to their innate tendency for violence and their place at the top of the charts for maulings
I found my cat in the hedges two nights ago meowing and walking really funny. At first I thought it had a broken leg, but then I saw that its legs were fine. It was walking like it was extremely drunk.
I took it to the vet, and they thought it could be that the cat drank antifreeze. However, the next day, the cat still hadn't vomited and was missing a few other symptoms. The vet basically just told me it's a mystery why the cat got this neurological problem, and there's some evidence that it could be the cat ate a poisonous lizard. She said that this problem happened to one of her own cats, and it survived with some minor leftover symptoms (head tilt, a bit slower). I decided to take the cat home, and they gave me some steroids to reduce neurological inflammation in the cat. She's doing a bit better now, so I'm hopeful she'll survive.
Anyone else have experience with this kind of shit?
hopefully it dies and costs a lot of money doing it
>>2248564
>abandon cat outdoors
>get surprised when something bad happens to it
Why don't you just kill it now and get another cat? We all know that's what you're going to do when this one dies anyway. Then you will neglect the new cat, too
lmao, that's what you get if you let your cat outdoors.
>tfw went full autism and started spewing anti-cat rhetoric among blue pill friends
>everyone gets quiet
>someone says "I let my cat outside you know" and some girl said I sounded sadistic
fuck em you spoke your mind
>>2248084
> "I let my cat outside you know"
Well, when it gets fucked up you should reply in typical /an/ fashion
TAKE IT TO THE VET!!!!!!

Kitty are much better when they are small. Before they become jaded and far more hungry
>>2252543
the trouble with a kitten is that
eventually it becomes a cat
