Poor pup.... but we do it all the time to our furkids. Here's some more sites that are totally demented:
www.yogakitty.com
They claim the Purr-fect yoga for you and your cat. I mean come on! Who can be serious with a cat on your head?
Or how about www.stuffonmycat.com ? Pictures of people putting the strangest things on their beloved cats, and I think there is a site for stuff on my dog too. Or what about just pictures of kitties with a Hitler style moustache? Don't believe me? Check it out at www.catsthatlooklikehitler.com
And we wonder why our pets bite us, or find ways to wreak havoc when you aren't at home for revenge. Ah yes, the pictures of a kitty getting a bath. And people think the poor traumatized kitty is funny when wet. Hello! There is a reason cats hate water, they can bathe themselves folks! Yeah, then you forget they have front feet full of switchblades, that they know how to use quite effectively. And you wonder why the dog shreds anything it can find when you leave the house.
Oh yes, our pets are very, very intelligent and very creative in their ways to seek revenge on us for besmirching their dignity.
And mine don't need any prompting to wreak havoc, they just have to be pissed at us for anything or any imagined affront. I can come home to any number of exciting things. The dogs are probably the most creative in their revenge. From shredded paper or tissues, to jumping from the couch to the coffee table to push everything on top onto the floor while another pees on the items. Or Lil'Shit when he was younger, he never liked being left behind, and worse not having a window to watch out of for my return. Once upon a time I brought him up with me when we came to visit my folks. My mom had a big long window at the front of the house with miniblinds, metal miniblinds mind you. The sill to this window was 2 maybe 2.5 feet from the floor. We all were going to go out to supper, she closed and dropped the blinds, I told her not to do that, that my dog would tear through them to be able to watch for me to come back. Sad thing is, she thought I was lying. Nope, I was speaking from experience. Sure enough we came back and he was on the sill watching for us, and you could see the big chewed through hole in the blinds where he had eaten his way through the blinds so he could sit on the sill to watch for me. Now, mind you he's a chihuahua, not a big dog at all. Mom was so taken by surprise she started laughing. She replaced the damaged slats, but left a couple to remind her of his tenacity.
Cats, oh cats, are just plain sneaky and spiteful in their revenge, they don't stop at one thing, they have a list planned out for revenge for a slight. From peeing on you or something you hold dear, to sharpening their claws on your leg, to pushing something breakable off from a high spot, and the list goes on.
Anyhow, while we find these things humorous and yes we do because we love our pets and the silly things they can do on their own brings us much laughter and joy, there are some things perhaps we shouldn't do to them or put on them.
One last thing I want to share, and this sadly is true of some of our cats, so heed these words of wisdom. And if this one doesn't outright have you laughing so hard you pee your pants, then you need your funny bone replaced.
