Sophia, 11, is wild about her pet lynx

The lynx is a wild animal with wild instincts. It may be okay now but this isn’t going to turn out well.
The way you phrased that reminded me of Bing Crosby singing Would you like to Swing on Star

I hand raised a baby squirrel.

She was very cute, but had claws you would not believe.

She thought of me as a combination mom and tree, I looked like a road map...

[Oztrich Boy]

A dangerous unpredictable creature... and a lynx.

[Carriage Hill]

With a cat that big, it’s either “I’m hungry and you’re dinner” or “move your butt and get me a slab of meat”. LOL. Kind of makes you feel like a piece of raw meat... CHOMP!

[Darksheare]

Angror is a Jabberwock.
I think.
Jaws that bite and claws that catch an’ all of that stuff.

[Darksheare]

“they don’t know what happened to him.”

Old age, bear, coyote, or a mix of one of the two.
Had a bobby domestic mix that I called Mimi.
[Screaming Mimi that is, she was lightning fast and had a howl to her when she got upset. Thankfully it was rare that she was upset.]
She was a little fluffball of love that became a large fluffball of “Your lap is MINE now hyooman!”
An affectionate if slightly insistant cat.

Hunter S. Thompson had a pet wolverine...

...of course if that's not exotic enough, you could always graduate to a hyena...

How to wash a cat

This was simply too much of a timesaver not to share it with you.

1. Put both lids of the toilet up and add 1/8 cup of pet shampoo to the water in the bowl...

2. Pick up the cat and soothe him while you carry him towards the bathroom.

3. In one smooth movement put the cat in the toilet and close the lid. You may need to stand on the lid.

4. At this point the cat will self agitate and make ample suds. Never mind the noises that come from the toilet, the cat is actually enjoying this!

5. Flush the toilet three or four times. This provides a ‘Power-Wash’ and ‘Rinse’.

6. Have someone open the front door of your home. Be sure that there are no people between the bathroom and the front door.
7. Stand well back, behind the toilet as far as you can, and quickly lift the lid.

8. The cat will rocket out of the toilet, streak through the bathroom, and run outside where he will dry himself off.

9. Both the toilet and the cat will be sparkling clean.

Yours Sincerely,

The Dog

Why does it not surprise me that Nully is a Far Side fan?

[Slings and Arrows]

She sounds like a handful. I joke that if my Misty were human, she’d be Glenn Close’s character in Fatal Attraction.

I’m still mourning the day Larson retired.

[Darksheare]

Mimi wasn’t too bad.
She was actually the most well behaved cat I’ve ever had.
She had a pathological hatred for snakes, anything that looked like a snake, and foam suds coming out of the drain pipes though.

[Eaker]

OTOH, it will take you days to get all the fur off your tongue.

LOL!

[Eaker]

no moderate sized cat is able to do a bite down like a pit bull.

And a pit bull doesn't have near the bite strength of a dozen or so other breeds.

[Texas Fossil]

WOW!

Wolverine?? That is something.

Now the guy with the hyena really impresses me. He is one bad dude.

[Slings and Arrows]

If anyone could befriend a wolverine, it would be Hunter S. Thompson.

[Slings and Arrows]

I won’t say the joke, but I’m thinking it. ;^)

[Eye of Unk]

“Here doggy, doggy, doggy!”

[SIDENET]

A dangerous wild animal and an eleven year old. What could possibly go wrong?

Has to be better than Travis the chimp.

beautiful cat... beautiful child...I predict that one day the child will not be so beautiful.
