Do you have to post the Helen T picture so early in the thread?

Dogs are great companionship, and my best friend.... but beware a loaded cat.

Figured I get it out of the way.
You’ll thank me later.

You may be right although she could sneak up later on in the thread and still bite us in the butt

Dogs came to the front door, offering their loyal services for a bone or a scrap. A bond was soon formed as their nose and ears and eyes were watchful, and most helpful against enemies.
Cats came to the back door, and soon wormed their way into the house as their superior rodent-killing skills were readily apparent. They didn’t need as much food, and captivated us with their clean habits and purring.
And so it began...

Dogs and humanoids have been together so long they have co-evolved. Cats not so much, They are still virtually the pure predators.

And then along came the Chinese and poisoned them both with chemicals in their food.

They do fare pretty well when old cat women die. We were 10 years killing off unauthorized felines when a neighbor died!

Years ago, I read a comic strip--I believe it was Rick O'Shay--in which a cat looked on in horror as a man gave commands to his dog: Sit! Roll over! Beg! Heel! And so forth--and the dog obeyed every command.
The cat thought, "poor dog. He'll never make it as a cat."

They are so far surviving here as the diet is minimally supplemented by purchased rations.
They say don’t give your dogs chicken bones, etc. Wonder what they did before we came along.
In over 20 years I’ve only have to remove bones from dog’s mouths twice. Pork, as I recall...

Raw chicken bones are fine. It’s the cooked ones that splinter on them.

In over 20 years Ive only have to remove bones from dogs mouths twice. Pork, as I recall...As a food service professional, I do have to advise that there is a MAJOR difference between cooked and raw bones.
I won't feed anything cooked bones, except humans. In theory, humans aren't supposed to gnaw bones and break them (In theory, practice may vary).

Oh, boy. You might want to pick up a copy of Cat Fancy magazine some time, take a gander at all the breeds. If most of those breeds were turned loose to survive in a barn environment, they would never make it.
