In my country we call em sawbeaks.

I hear that coat type and having blue eyes is linked to a bunch of genetic diseases and I personally prefer on patchy coats but they're smart and healthy otherwise from what I know so go for it op

I've had mine for 11 years and I could not have asked for a better dog. Very smart, very good with kids and other animals. Mine is getting a little older now but he doesn't have any health problems and hes as energetic as ever. Downsides to my dog are small but include:

Occasionally knocks over the small trash can near my computer if I leave him at home alone for too long; won't go out if the grass is wet, he'll just hold it; Constantly wants attention which is great except for when I want to watch TV, take a nap, etc; hair everywhere all the time.

I just adopted a 3 year old. They have to run at least 3-4 days a week or they will never be satisfied. So with that, have a big fences in yard or be prepared to leash up and run with the dog. Very smart and loving and loyal, otherwise.

look around for the nest. pick it up gently and put it back in the nest.

>>2175099
The nest is like 50 ft up in a tree.

Throw it up there faggot

>I figure I'll just go to a shelter and see which older cats are friendly enough to say hi
Pretty much do this is all I can say, Old cats tend to be chill and crave attention.
Go into the shelter and find one that looks for your attention, avoid the shy ones but those too can turn out to be friendly once trusting.

You will probably have a better time with a cat that is friendly from the start though.
Fair play for being interested in an elderly cat, they donb't get adopted as much as kitten but they are still full of love to give.
I actually prefer them, currently have a 17 year old amputee, shes pretty chill and loving.

Thanks, I guess once the worst happens I'll just take a few trips to shelters around town. I'm sure there are plenty of older cats to adopt.

Here's another picture of the old gal

Looks like a nice cat.

selfbump

Maybe she's changing her chips.

it looks like a normal growth line although most of the ones i'm seeing aren't that wide

Enjoy your middle class rowhouse neighbors telling you that you can't walk the streets of their development, friend.

There was this board on a website, it was beautiful, then one day OP decided to be a faggot. Sad! This is why I have no faith in humanity.

she wants to fuuuuck

>>2174815
no

if she wanted to fuck, she would make that noise when i am not holding her

also, she just got out of heat, i think, she finally stopped doing that tail waggy fast thing, which, to my understanding, means she is no longer in heat

>ask question
>include answer to own question in post
Go to bed dude.

8 weeks is the standard. Does not matter if she sees

>>2174781
The problem is that i dont want her to be to sad or she loses her trust in me :(

She'll be confused more than anything.

You don't HAVE to do anything, snails are harmless even if you have a shitload of them.

>>2174715
Too late, they found my gun, their holding my fish hostage. And have crafted some sort of mind control device. This may be my last post.


But seriously what kinda snails are they? I'm assuming they must be ramshorn or mystery, but I have no idea, their tiny

>>2174717
Probably just pond snails. Probably came in on the plants you have.

>>2174701

... okay i want to know. why?

But a bobcat is a lynx. That's like saying "what's better: a dog or a poodle"

Specify a species of lynx

the next few weeks are crucial, please consult a vet and make sure you make sure they're eating well. i hope you don't lose any puppies. can you post more photos please? i'm very jealous

is the litter a golden cross or purebred goldens?

how has it been so far taking care of the litter? i hope they're doing well

>>2174582
They're not Goldens. Border collie.

Pretty stress free so far only she's kind of a clumsy dog and she'll lay right on top of them and not do anything about it if they start screaming.

I've been making sure she gets food and water regularly and that each pup gets fed.
