Do your pets ever "tell you off" ?
 
My cat hates it when I sit or lie on the floor, and she gets all anxious and deliberately annoys me so I have to get up :laugh:

Your cat is only tolerating you Oliver, because you're the food guy.

My dog is probably the most intelligent being in the house and sometimes looks exasperated trying to make us understand until he audibly sighs. Like a big, fed up sigh... then finally he gently clamps on to my wrist and leads me where he thinks I need to be. He's very patient with us really. The cat, not so much. He likes to lay along the back of the sofa and doesn't like anyone sitting directly in front of him, so he taps you on the head. Softly at first... then with claws.

our doggie likes to sleep on one side of the sofa so if I am sitting on it he will sit in front of me and bark until I move over and he can jump up :fist:

One of our dogs always taps us when he wants something but sometimes we can never work out what he wants and he gets a bit fed up having to talk with his eyes all the time.

yes, my dog called me a fat **** the other day for eating four twixes

Our dogs and cat,know when its walkie time in the mornings so they jump on the bed and start trying to get fuss and lick us to death,the cat gets on our chest and 'paddles' until we have to get up , if we don't get up they just keep up the demands until we give in,funnily enough it's roughly the same time every morning,whoever said animals are dumb got it so wrong.

Also grapes, currants, anything like that.

And artificial sweetener can animals diabetes. When I was at uni a flatmate was going to give a cat the milk from her cereal that had artificial sweetener sprinkled on it and someone else stopped her. It can be deadly, apparently.

:laugh:No Oliver but we fetch her in every night as we don't like her out all night,she has picked up on the dogs walk time so when they are ready she knows its her time to go out too, we just let her out when we get up:wavey:

Babayaro. 16-04-2020 12:47 PM

the only 'human' food we give Ollie is some chicken breast slices every now and then, and a little bit of yoghurt

A friend of mine used to have a leopard-cat, and she'd have to leash her up and take her for walks :laugh:

Sounds quite lovely Oliver ,but mine would not allow that at all.:laugh:

Smithy 16-04-2020 12:56 PM

Yes we have the worst behaved dogs of all time

Edit; oh wait I misread it, not really, Margot sometimes yaps if you stick your head next to her though

Kizzy 16-04-2020 01:21 PM

Duke has developed an impressive withering look if we don't get what he wants within a specific time frame.
If we leave him in the garden and shut the door he will 'knock' to come in then ignore us for ages.
But the biggest diva strop is bath time, as a lab he loves water, canals, muddy puddles... but we have to physically lift him in the bath or shower and he will refuse to look at you while in there. After he sits and eats a special treat in his dressing gown and sulks.

:laugh:

s'why I like greyhounds - they have short fur and don't get much of a "doggy smell". They too big and lanky to haul into the bath, so I wash them with a bucket of water and a sponge :laugh:

Quarantine really got to you eh

LaLaLand 19-04-2020 03:19 AM

Yes!

My dog has this way of knowing it's around midnight somehow, and that's when she wants to go to bed. So if I don't budge I can feel her staring at me from across the room and then stars whimpering and whining until I make eye contact or say something to her...

Then she starts getting closer and closer across the room bit by bit, barking along the way, and then if I push my luck she starts trying to pull my shoes off my feet by the tongues and nearly pulls my legs out of their sockets! (She's a big 6 stone Old Tyme Bulldog x, very strong but thankfully extremely placid and goofy!) :joker:
