That's just adding insult to injury 
I've had some very bad weeks because of this incident.
It's not like I want to lose them, but cats go outside and in my case get scared off by neighbor cats or whatever.
Goblin was very social and I've kept him inside for for seven weeks, which should be enough for him to know it's his house and it's safe.
He's been outside for a bit a couple of times before, which went well.
In any case, I don't think his taking off was voluntary.
And I'm starting to doubt if Pink's was, which went exactly the same (but after ten weeks)...
Needless to say, my next cat won't be going outside in the first year or so and after that only with a GPS collar...

A Husky-Malamute-Chow-Corgi. She got lucky and looks like a small wolf (60 lbs).
It was only in wine that he laid down no limit for himself, but he did not allow himself to be confused by it.

Does fish count ? I have 4.
Would love to have a pet but rental doesn't allow having a pet.

Don't know. Perhaps give them this and let us know the outcome?

With that many animals how can you be sure that your not the pet?

The pig should as soon as it is big enough.

So if you've got a few cows, twenty sheep and fifty hens, then you are their pet?

I have an orange tabby cat, and a Newfoundland-Collie mix doggo. Rescued the cat when he was just a few weeks old, from the side of the road. Dog was taken to the shelter when he was about 5, and I scooped him up shortly after. Both are good, chill companions.

I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

My son named them when he was 5.
They were the new cats, after my other two died (at 13 years): Pyanfar and Scheherazade.

Pet rock, from the 70's.
Doesn't eat much.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Thanks because you got the old fashioned "static" version. You should upgrade to USB: USB Pet Rock[^]

Spiders.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Burn the house down.
Burn it with fire.

Hey now, be kind. Ms Spinners is really nice. We've had a lot of nice chats, she's a web developer.

I grew up with both cats and dogs. (and an old fashioned small scale farmer as a neighbor)
Now I have none, for logistical reasons.
But I have two children, and I can assure you dogs are easier to train.
