does your pet insist on "helping" with your hobbies too??
ok so I tried to set up my telescope in the backyard last night and my cat Biscuit (yes I know... food name, I didnt think it through!!) decided the tripod case was her new bed. Then she stole one of my eyepieces and batted it under the deck... I spent 20 minutes on my stomach wi...

Would you rather have a cat or a dog?

Would you rather have a cat or a dog?
I wonder how pet lovers actually make the decision to choose what they want to go for. It was not an easy decision for me trying to choose between a cat and a dog.

Do you think that we could communicate with animals someday?
I think that technology is developing quite rapidly and there are so many people who would like to talk to their pets as we humans do. Having said that, do you think that it would be possible to talk to our pets in the future? Will technology allow us to do that?

why do so many pet toys look like they were designed by someone who’s never seen an animal
tbh like seriously, half of this stuff is neon plastic monstrosities that look more like rejected kid toys from the 90s or they're shaped like food items which just seems like taunting them. my cat has zero interest in the “realistic sushi” plush but will go nuts for a crumpled r...

What is the most irritating thing your pet does?
Pets could be really irritating to some extent. They are real living creatures after all. Some could scratch you and other could bite you all the time. This could be quite irritating. So, what kind of irritating behavior you have to endure when it comes to pets?
