My manager asked me about my pain levels today, so I had a nice rant about yesterday. I think I made it clear their behaviour was unacceptable. I also showed her my council registration card thing so hopefully she realises I'm serious.

At least that's progress! Well done for standing up for yourself :j

hi,
just thought i would pop in and say hi,
i`ve been a `lurker` for ages, but plucked up the courage to say something this time,
(now i`m here not sure what to say)
i have r.a. but its more in control of me at the moment than i am of it, hence being up at `silly oclock` most nights, when its not prepared to let me sleep,
take care everyone,

Hi catsmother, I'm a newbie on here as well but its very friendly. I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that you have a cat lol. Whats his or hers name, mine is called Willow and she looks a bit like Felix.

A quick question as well for all you dog lovers, what dog do you have and whats their name. I have a ruby King Charles Cavalier and her name is Sascha. She doesn't realise she's a dog though, she thinks she a human but I guess thats my fault.:p

My sister has a cat! It was a rescue cat, so it has some "behavioural issues". It refuses to drink out of a bowl and needs a glass - quite cute, but if you leave a drink anywhere the cat will drink it!

My sister let him out, and then later went to fetch him back. She called and a black cat with a pink collar appeared. She thought it was a bit strange coz her cat never comes when he's called - and then he didn't struggle when she picked him up. Then she fed it and realised it wasn't her cat :rotfl:

I bet the cat didn't mind lol. My cat only started being nice to me when my dad died last year. I think she realised that it was me who was in charge of the cat food.:rotfl:

Thats an unusual name for a dog. When I used to be able to go out I went to the local key cutter to get a new dog tag. He insisted that I was spelling her name wrong. I won that argument. Now if I need a new tag I just get one of ebay. So much simpler.

I'm sorry about your cat disappearing, I have decided that when my cat and dog pass (hopefully 20+ years from now) that I'm going to stick with cats because I give in to the dog too much and she's not the best trained dog, again all my fault.

when i brought him home the kids and i wrongly assumed as he was part alsation that he would grow into a big dog and the name abyss would of suited a big dog lol but he stayed at the size of a collie.

his full name is the monster abyss, after an american wrestler lol but will answer to anything even lard a**e

dave was a mummy's boy, loved his cuddles, so i think he has found another home, theres a sheltered housing complex a couple of streets behind my house, so i hope some old duck there has him. my kids have been out putting posters up and flyers door to door and no sign of him tho

:rotfl:i used to have that problem when i was getting dave's tags done for his collar (he often would lose his collar) the looks i would get from the engraver and " are you sure you want dave written on the tag, as its meant to be the pets name, not yours" the cat is called dave, not me "eh, you called your cat dave??????" so like you, i ended up ordering them from ebay lol it was less hassle

I have Timmy, approximately a year old, officially a terrier cross but he's very definitely jack Russell with something else mixed in. Apparently he looks like Nipper, the HMV dog. I didn't name him, I think it's a bit of a silly name actually but I kept it because I couldn't think of something better that he would respond to. He was my 22nd birthday present (July this year) and the best present ever

I had a rough coat Jack Russell and her name was Jessie. She was such a good natured dog and she loved carrots. She died a fortnight before my dad. Everyone kept telling me that she had reached a good age but I still think she was too young at 13. Both her and my dad died of a heart attack, he was too young as well at the age of 68:(
