Hey JO,

Why bother with a pitbull when you have a perfectly good claw hammer.

Not that I'm advocating violence.

Siberian tiger's still the most appealing option.

Kindest

those front teeth can be a bit gummy though

Tigers are definitely my favorite; however, can be dangerous around tots. Here's one other suggestion...

Get yerself one of those Barkin' Dog Christmas Albums and blast it over their fence around about 2 in the morning continually. Won't take long for them to get rid of their own dog and vow never to keep a dog again.

A little hair of the dog, so to speak.

Skoob: Just so you know, Bear was so upset, went out and kissed the neighborhood cat, then a squirell, and blew a few kisses to a passing Cardinal...
no, not that kind -he growls at those with good reason, it's the one's that fly he fancies....

I know I'll not be popular and many if not all, will call me insensitive and worse names besides, but I have to ask a couple of questions.... I just have to.


How long has the dog lived next door?

How big is the dog?

What kind of a shitty fence do you (did you) have?

Has the dog ever tried anything like this in the past?

Is it possible that the cat had been taunting the dog in any way?



Sorry for your troubles Skoob.

And the answers to these questions will help you in what way?

To decide if the grief felt by Skoob and his family should in any way be mitigated due to a faulty fence or a dog that is habitually vicious?

Charpa: It's OK, Fergus is an artist and must always ask "why'...other than that
he's just an old 'stir stick'.......right Doc?

Hows the abode coming Fergie?

Ah Charpa,

How do you know that the dog is habitually vicious? In fact, how do you class a dog as habitually vicious when you don't know the dog or indeed the breed of dog involved.

I'll go one further, again at the risk of being called insensitive, remember this Charpa, everyone who has any kind of an animal, especially a carnivore, such as a dog or even a common house cat has to be prepared for possible bloodshed at some point or other.

They are animals. They are born with big fucking teeth and claws that have evolved over hundreds of thousands of years for the sole purpose of disemboweling prey and crushing windpipes, just because you give them a tin of Bonio or Kitekat doesn't mean that they are some sort of cute fluffy little bunny.


Animals are animals. How many birds and mice has Skoob's cat killed? Did he call the police?

Did he fuck!

It's sad, tragic even after 15 years but at the end of the day it's a dog, a pack animal descended from wolves.


The common cat is a far more vicious, ruthless and efficient assassin.

Live with it.

Moved in last weekend Morse, I'll be finishing it for the next three years but at least I'm in.

Charpa

That's just Fergus.

He doesn't mean anything bad. He just asks the searching questions. I'd never be offended by Fergus.

So, Ferg

The dog, so I'm told (I've never clapped eyes on it myself) is medium sized, it's a fighting dog - bigger than a pitbull or a staff, but not as big as a German Shepherd, sort of like a cross-bred mastiff type thing. Short legs, powerful body, big head.

Neighbour moved in around last Christmas time. No bother with the neighbour at all, until this.

Earlier yesterday, our girl was picking some cuttings up out of the garden and the dog had hurled itself at the fence.

The fence on that side is one of the ones made up of wood panels, fixed to fenceposts. I remember writing a spoof about this, or bringing it up in the forum, two panels blew down in the gales in winter. That side of the garden's the neighbour's responsibility. The way it's laid out, you can only work on it from their side. It was intact before the dog hurled itself at it.

The cat was an old girl, 15 years, and never went much beyond the garden. Certainly didn't do anything to provoke, and neither did anybody else.

Hope that clears it up.

Police, dog warden and local authority all informed.

Just a thanks here to all who sent messages of support.

I had to let off a little steam somewhere, and you good people saw that and understood where I was coming from. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for that.

Thank you.

Sincerely

Skoob.

The circle of life and death.

Put another fence inside the fence, hire a nailgun to do it, 'Paslode' is a popular make with no leads or wires which makes it handy for running with.

Accidentally shoot the dog in the head a few times.

I recommend 90 mill galvanised ringshanks.... Morse may have a better suggestion.

I like this.

The fine for violating a noise ordinance is also probably a bit more economical than the fine for setting a Siberian tiger loose on the neighbors.

Skoob: Glad to hear your doing a bit better. If your neighbors are incapable of getting a clue, maybe law enforcement will at least get from them a bit of compensation towards you and yours.

Meanwhile, comfort your granddaughter with the thought that your cat is now flushing the Great Toilet in the Sky, where the water supply is Endless.

Thanks

Skoob,i've had a brainwave, electric fence with a sign above, ARBEIT MACHT FREI, enter at your peril canine muvva fucker!

Skoob -- My condolences to you and your family on the death of your beloved cat.

As you can see from my avatar, I am a cat. I am extremely distressed that one of my fellow felines met such an untimely end. My suggestion is to sue the shit out of your uncaring neighbors since the nasty dog came onto your property.

Also, my owner never lets me go outside. I have lived quite happily inside her house all of my life. A point to consider if you should acquire a new cat sometime in the future.

Love and Purrs, Aubergine

Hi Aubergine...

You write well.. for a cat..

Next time Me Skoobie and Lynton go off on the razzle..

Why not ask your owner if you can join us...

You could sit on my lap and purr whilst I stroked you..

I'd enjoy that..

Naturally, as democratic pussy lovers, the others would soon expect their turn..

Then we'll give you a can of gourmet 'Cat-o-meat..

plus a bowl of full cream milk..

They probably won't get it, just like they don't seem to get anything else. Nice idea, though.

I spent half the night at work singing that song.

Clearly it was worth it.

AR, it could end up being a gas

Colonel Juan --

As you can see from my avatar, I am a drop dead gorgeous, highly pedigreed feline.

It's going to take a lot more than a lousy tin of cat food for me to get down on you guys.

I'm worth a lot more!!

I actually wrote interview questions for someone interviewing the guy who does those videos, Parry Gripp. He's got some cute stuff but tends to be on the annoying side with alot of what he does. Just sits in a room thinking up songs for food and little animals. Try having to come up with 10 interesting questions for someone like that. That'll test yer writing skills.

OK Aubergine..

Let's negotiate..

How about a tin of pilchards

and a saucer of cream...?
