Oh yes, I'd like a giraffe! ;o) Once saw a conservation programme about them and the host (Joanna Lumley, dunno if she's known in the states) said the problem with us Brits is we build our houses too small. If we built taller ones we could all have a giraffe each! Make that woman Prime Minister! I've seen Joanna Lumley on the T.V. I know that I can never have a giraffe, living where I live, but it doesn't stop me from wanting one. You don't have to build fences, you just have to dig ditches! I've always been fond of backhoes..... Anyhow, I'm setting my sights a bit smaller now, I suppose. Hubby says I can get a civet, a fennel fox or a Canadian Lynx. As a cat fiend, I'm leaning toward the lynx. I have friends who breed them, etc....... Jacqueline, honey....beware the billy goat!!!! Not only do they smell bad, but they tend to hump anything and everything! I have wonderful video, though, of Boris butting heads with a 3-month old bull calf. They were playing "King-of-the Hill" with a bale of hay. VERY cute! Kindest Regards, Mich |

"Ablang" wrote in message ... I'm curious what made you choose cats over dogs? I prefer cats because I don't have to bathe them every so often. I also like how I don't have to walk them (dogs love to get their paws all dirty and roll around in gunk). Cats are usually smaller, and therefore eat less and have smaller poops. I just think generally that cats are more attractive graceful creatures that naturally smell good. But let's hear your thoughts on cats vs dogs. -- "Hilary Duff is the covergirl for an international youth industry" -- Unknown View the countdown for when Hilary Duff turns 18 (I know you're waiting for it): http://www.timeanddate.com/counters/...&month=09&year =2005&hour=00&m The next T-shirt slogan (seriously): "Is it chicken or is it tuna?" Cats have more personality. You can learn more from cats. Cats are more graceful and powerful, for their size. Cats are more devoted to their offspring. Cats can be a challenge. But I do miss lying on my Boxer's back and squirrels are getting to me too, even though I've never held one. |
