nope, theyre literally everywhere here; from forests to urban settings
theyre opportunistic feeders, meaning, they'll eat anything so garabge is easy grabs

Like vermin so to speak then mate?
never knew the little fuckers where that common lol

they're considered pests, yeah, but it's more us encroaching into their territory than them ours
I like seeing them around

poor lil guy, terrified, Kaali barked him up the fence; got her inside and he toddled off though the cat now out hunting
the bloody cat's already had surgery once scrapping a raccoon

Not sure how long it ran for but i know it was repeated at least once. Pretty sure every child growing up in the 80's in the UK will remember The Raccoons.

There was a film also i think.......

.......googling..........googling...........

Yes, definitely, two found within quick google, might stick it on for my kids later for old times sake.

Haha that’s great! Funnily enough was talking to my old cantankerous judgemental mother earlier today whom called over to see my daughter, she was asking how old sox was now, that led into a hour long discussion, was looking at my old Sox pics, will post a few soon.
We are of the opinion she’s 7/9 when I liberated her.

 

[Playford7]

Sorry a few photos, not seen these for years some of them.
Many people call my dog a staffy ‘aggressive’ people sadly cross the road when I walk her to avoid us, thing is poor Sox had a bad start in life, took me years to get her sociable again with other dogs.
As with my daughter you can see the love, obviously won’t ever leave them alone together, but glad sox was given and had a good life now ) also I look loads younger in the pic :-(...

 

[ladyhawke]

Sadly my back has gone.
got painkillers and heat spray.
tried to walk Sox but sadly my back kept seizing up, so the walk was cut short.
Typical on the eve of my birthday.
sox isn’t amused at all...

That is a "I don't believe this moron is using that as an excuse!" look if ever I saw one.

 

[ladyhawke]

lol, cats are weird
sound asleep

So cats DO facepalm then!!!

Crikey! That is a very disturbing SoxNado grin.

 

[ladyhawke]

So for now stuck with looking at cats, which i hate lol ...

My Xmas card list has just shrunk by one!

Beautiful photos. And even though you won't leave Sox alone with your daughter, don't forget that there must be something truly inspirational about your daughter for Sox to show her such love. You are a really lucky guy.

Chance of this fine looking hound, it’s a pitbull. Naturally in the uk I’ll have to have certain certs etc, which I’ll get. Also have the dog have the correct vets look over before I take the superb animal.
Anyone any pit experience? I’ve a staffy, but the old pit is a different thing.
The dogs parents have a great nature and had no health problems, I’m mega tempted tbh.
Thoughts?..

Bump....although I think I already know the answer...

Got my little friend ready to watch a movie with me

Got my little friend ready to watch a movie with me

My little friend is in the dog house (so to speak) lol wee bitch boned the end of my nose last night pulled her bed out to get into the freezer and she just launched at me totally out of character then I found a bone she had stashed behind her bed.

From the crumbs scattered around, I am guessing there was a little bribery and corruption going on...

Yikes. Was she trying to get to the bone, and you … and your nose.... got in the way, or did she actually go for you? If the former - serves you right for being an obstruction. If the latter -you won't be getting in her way again, I'm guessing, although still slightly worrying.

This abhorrent slur will be reported!..
but your correct, Sox after her before bed wee wanted to snuggle in the bottom end of my blanket on my bed.
she was bribed otherwise lol..
Bad dog owner right here..

Nope she went for the full blown attack lol she has always been very very possessive when it comes to food just never to that extent I got her from a home with 5 other dogs and her being the smallest obviously she wasn’t getting enough food.
Now saying that she’s only a miniature jack her bite is minimal it’s obviously something I will have to remember for future reference

Maybe you shouldnt have tossed her up there if you are just gonna complain about getting her down.
Doh!

shes flown a few times but only usually from batting my face at 6am when im trying to sleep

 

[dionysus]

Wish I had had camera in hand
Opened the door to see if any yard bunnies to chuck out a couple carrots.
Nope, but an entire family of raccoons - 4 of them - on the front porch all jammed inside the cat feeder lol
Cute
No hisses, just looks and they toddled off

 

[Playford7]

The hound and I at my old pad.
she hadnt eaten well lately, bought lean chicken today which wasn’t cheap and she decides to eat...

is she an older girl?
tastes and favourites change, same as us

I generally have frozen ribs and such in the freezer for them, but a cheap, healthy economic treat, is a bag of frozen perogies
keeps em busy a bit
rice is good if it's just a tummy ache

The answer is Honey.

She was a rescue dog mate, think she’s 7/8 according to the vets.
Been walking miles trying to get some weight off her.
past few days she’s not being eating her dried food so was worried as she hasn’t eaten.
she’s fast asleep full of lean expensive chicken breast now....

 

[Kroffe]

Oh, easy on the honey if you are trying to get her to shed a couple punds.

sweet little guy
just got a message; this was the guy I trapped last month and we got fixed and tended to
he's entered the adoption system, so hopefully he finds a fur-ever home <3

 

[dionysus]

mostly lazy Saturday before a Sunday clean
doggo knows the score

 

[dionysus]

so...the dog ate a cat yesterday

It's a tough call. I put her out and she knows the commands 'guard the house', 'find your babies' which basically means, she'll go out on alert and watch for my cats and if need be, herd them in (we've ferals and coyotes and foxes) and if she hears one cry out, she'll barrel down, get them in and check em head to toes...she protects her pack.

A feral was out back last night. poor thing probably just wanted under the deck beneath the hot tub for heat and protection)

She pounced it and started tearing into it. Of course, I dont want her hurting them, so i flew off the deck and tackled her to the ground and it got away (I've some sweet bruises and leg gash for my troubles) but stressed all day poor thing probably went off and died somewhere.

The tough call is..I dont want her hurting the animals but she's also really really good protecting what's hers (fam pets).

Anywho, feeling a bit better; a feral skuking out there in the feral feeder, hope it's the same one

He is absolutely gorgeous. Living where I do, there are frequent visits from blue tongues and other lizzardy thingies (goannas mainly) but there is NO way I am ever getting closer to them than my perch at the top of the back stairs. I know they can climb but if they try that trick I am on the next plane outta here...

Still waiting on pics of Athens and Harry (not of the BKK species though ) so hope you post them soon. Again, have quite a few spiders around, but the scariest - although not dangerous in the least - are the huntsman. Crikey.dot.com they are large, and can they move! I reckon they could beat Usain Bolt and still be home in time for tea.

Poor old thing. He looks so old and tired and defeated in this picture. So very, very happy he has been adopted.

ya he was shaved down for the matting and he had lots or war wounds

glad he came round here to the feeder, and he got out of the cold and wild into a loving home; apparently hes's skittish but very affectionate
i had him in the garage overnight after trapping and theyre like DO NOT let him out of the trap

im a softie so let him out to roam lol, he immediately made himself at home into the dogs old bed and blankets, probably best safest sleep hed had in gaes

 

[dionysus]

so, the dog couldnt have done too much damage, hes back again
cute little sort, seems to have taken residence in the garage so sent photos to the TNR to see if any owners, doesnt seem feral, too friendly, maybe lost or missing
put a bowl out there for him and the garage open 2 inches so he can come and go

I’m glad to see your local council actually do grass cutting were as ours stopped it 7 years ago which leaves me to cut the the field in front of the house 2 hours per week ffs.
Was cutting it last year when I was pulled by a dude wearing a hi vis stating he was from the roads service and the loose grass was blocking a drain cheeky prick.

 

[dionysus]

guy's all but moved in but hope someone claims him
too friendly to be feral but if he's owned he has asshole owners - been out freezing nights, all night and aint neutered - at a guess, a lost kitty

He's back again and mostly hanging in my garage but gonna end up getting run over
Went out front and he's in the middle of the road holding up traffic. I can't keep him but at least he's a warm garage and food

 

[dionysus]

im starting a collection apparently
opened garage, this guy in there all chilled out

Are you sure that homeless black cat is not actually two cats as he looks different in both pictures. First picture a little bit fluffy, but in the second picture rather sleek.
