There’s some pics of him a page or two back.
He’s a golden doodle known as The Doof.

Wait... The retired elderly couple? Are you trying to kill them? Do they know Hamilton is a beast?

Sorry, but don't be sad. You did the right thing.

Thank you. Last night sucked coming home from the gym and Hamilton not waiting on me to come inside. I missed him cuddling up next to me in bed last night. I didn't think I was ever going to go to sleep.

The wife told me yesterday that her husband had a Norwegian Forest Cat for 14 years and that he died a few months ago. She said that he has been completely distraught since their cat died. Hamilton took right up with him. Hamilton gave him a head butt and blinked at him, then laid his head on his shoulder. The old man started crying and so did I. Touching moment. The old man told me to keep his cell phone number and anytime that I was in the area to stop by, drink a beer and see Hamilton. Makes me feel better to know that he'll have a better life, than what he had at my house (even though he was treated like a king) by having someone that will be able to spend more time with him. The next few weeks will be tough getting acclimated without him being around.

Sad morning for sure.

Can't remember if I posted this. Saw this little sucker eating Wilder's food and I was like "Damn, if Wilder catches you, he is gonna be soooo mad!"

Then I looked up and saw Wilder just chilling at the other end of the patio.

My daughter, observing this, looks at me and says "Well, there you have it. Wilder bear don't care."

Perhaps Wilder is wise and is choosing his battles. He knows he'll eat again, not worth the tussle with an opossum. Those things are insanely mean.

I dunno - the opossum seems quite chill. He came back again the other night and was wandering around my back porch since I left the screen door open. I went out there to shoo him away, and he was pretty nonchalant about the whole thing, lol.

As for Wilder - he has the attitude of a wet noodle - and is probably the most laid back cat I've ever seen.

He truly lives by the adage "Wilder bear don't care".

I’m afraid not. I have six of these little spike balls, though I believe a license is required for a porcupine which my wife and I would love to own one day.

Ultimate pet for me would be a penguin but would be nearly impossible regarding laws/regulations, etc... Also, they need to be in groups of at least twenty (20) so imagine the loopholes to jump through to not only own one but at least twenty and the food, accommodations and the poop they produce daily. It would make owning a e60 M5 affordable!

I'd rather have a silver back gorilla as a trunk monkey

NEFARIOUS · 09-12-2019, 06:36 PM

Meet Winky, AKA who I call ALF for "Antisocial Little Fucker"... I know about the 80's sitcom and how Alf wanted to eat cats once, which is a contributing reason I settled on the name. He's about as charming as he looks. I WISH this was a joke/troll post, and the roommates only warned me about him AFTER I moved in (bastards).

He was a stray cat that has been taken back to the shelter twice, and they warned my roommates that if ALF was taken back a 3rd time he'd be euthanized, so they felt sorry for him and put up with his antics of hissing, yowling, and even taking swipes at people (even ALF's dumbass owners)... I used to not believe in euthanizing animals, but ALF is seriously pushing the envelope every time he sneaks up on me when I wake up to take a piss at 3 AM. Can't wait until I'm able to move out of this shit-hole... I'm surprised I have even half the patience I've exuded for ALF; if this was anybody else, I'm sure he'd be a goner for sure.

Excuse the pic quality; although it was taken by a decent phone, this is zoomed all the way in, and that look on his face was too funny/creepy not to capture it (but he does usually have a Ted Bundy reptilian stare though).

EDIT: The notification made me LOL... "no one and 3 others" sounds like a mathematical impossibility! (I know, there's someone with that screen name, but still)

Maynard · 09-12-2019, 06:44 PM

You just gotta show him who's boss. Then after you warm the can of cat food and properly plate it, you make sure he also has lots of iced water and catnip.
