    Oh Buffy, of course you do, you want some loving, some company, someone to care and someone to have a laugh with. I don't know what to suggest I suppose if you're not putting yourself out there, putting yourself in the shop window you aint gonna get any custom. Pets are truly wonderful companions, as you we lost one our cats last week and Ive lost one before and its heartbreaking when they go, but like you say they have brought and bring so much happiness in to ones life, they're not cheap but with careful budgeting and a sensible insurance policy its doable. I have to say I'm not totally akin to your situation at home but have you thought about having some of what Snoggles is drinking :D


    Hmm, that was mainly what set me thinking. I just don't know any men!! and all my friends bar one (who I am convinced is gay) are married or have boyfriends. they always want a girlie night out and it has literally Been years since I went on the pull.

    Mum would kill me if I got another pet. especially a complicated one. I should go to bed now. done no work this weekend pondering skipping out on work tomorrow. but could cause problems with stuff. hmmm.

    I shall away to my bed after looking at some more cute pictures of pets to be!

    xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Yep, or if they cross dress. Or if they can only have sex/intimacy in certain ways/circumstances/dress. It can cover a wide range really.
    Cats don't have owners - they have staff!! :D:p

    Interesting, Ive never come across anyone who counsels for that before. I'm a bit of a male homophobe (only because Im a biggot and probably feel threatened if you get my drift) and am not sure I agree with sex changes like that fella in the states who was pregnant. :eek:

    yeah, i know what you mean. i have no problem with people who are TG. TS/TV, but i do think if you are going to have a gender change op, then you go all the way.

    that poor child is going to have so many problems being known as ' the kid born from a man' that i wouldn't be surprised if they end up having a lifetime of counselling.

    As if to say 'Where is that smell coming from' Puds, refuses to eat his food if we are having something he likes the smell of. OH doesnt like to feed them our food at meal times cause he hangs around the feet and any hint that you may be offering something he grabs it and by hint i may mean a slower than normal transit from the plate to the mouth lol :D

    she's always been quite good and not tried to get food from the plate, and i can leave meat/cheese on the worktop and she won't touch it.

    but if you leave a plate lying about she'll have a nose and eat anything left.

    once an ex-bf left his tuna saladcream sandwich on a plate on the floor and she ate it all :rotfl: including the crusts!!:eek: :rotfl: :rotfl:
