You know how toxoplasmosis is a risk for cat owners and it can change their behavior? I imagine something similar must be the case with dogs and dog owners.

Gar having just spent ten minutes scrubbing poop off the carpet because the kittens (who had been doing SO WELL until today) decided en masse that under my boyfriend's desk was their new favorite poop spot (THEY HAD BEEN DOING SO WELL GAH), I have no idea what you're on about with the "cats don't have gross poops you have to clean" thing. Cats are truly, truly disgusting. Related: Bruce has decided to nurse...on Tuesday's jugular. Picture and video:  http://youtu.be/ciUAIPHv6k4 That red thing is their surrogate mom stuffed doll. They love him and rip all his hair out. I've had a lot of success with yarn-hair comfort toys for kittens. Kittens are gross as gently caress, and I have NO IDEA how to curb this behaviour. I checked her out, and she was slimy and wet but totally unhurt. She doesn't seem to care or push him off, so, uh...I don't know. Here's some more photos. Sarabi's really taken to these guys  PS: the Tuxedo one is named Bruce Wayne, the orange and white one is Oliver Queen, the tiny dilute tortie is Dinah Lance and the fluffy tortie is, uh, Tuesday. The only other good female Justice League names are Diana and Shyera. Diana is boyfriend's mom's name, and Shyera is too much name for one kitten. Dinah is a pocket-cat:   She's a little clingy.  Sarabi and Oliver:  Oliver:  Sarabi wants to know why I've inflicted babies on her yet again.  My large thumb links don't seem to be working, so here's a wonky but functional gallery. What's going on with imgur, does anyone know? I get a 403 forbidden trying to see thumbnailed images. http://imgur.com/a/xz9jo InEscape fucked around with this message at 23:09 on May 25, 2012 |

I wasn't trying to compare and contrast dog and cat poop. I was just speaking my mind about the very real concern I have that prevents me from getting a dog. Kittens and Puppies are equally gross because baby animals are gross. That's why they're so cute cause if they weren't nobody would put up with their poo poo.

The little dog pick up bags are too small and it's always a mess. It's like using a plastic beach shovel to muck out a horse stall. Even Foxy's collie requires two of those little bags and that's a collie. I kinda wish I had a super strong robot hand because it'd be cool, as long as I didn't have to lose my other hands/feet for it.

Counter point: Cats vomit on everything you love. And it is pretty much the most disgusting, foul-smelling substance to come out of a mammal. And litter has very distinct smell that is instantly identifiable no matter how expensive the stuff you use is. Sitka buries her poo. I have no idea where she goes to the bathroom because I can never find it.

So I've been visiting my mother since yesterday and brought my GSD. My mom keeps blaming him for making a mess because every time we have left we return to find my clothing strewn all over the house. I've been thinking it was him too, but today I was sitting quietly (working on the computer) while my mom was running some errands, and I think her dog forgot I was home because I caught her sneaking one of my pillows out of the guest bedroom. Apparently it is that little beast who has been stealing my clothes and blaming my dog for it. I should have known, too. That dog has always been crazy. Once we came home and found her carrying a kitchen knife around by the handle.

One time my dog pooped on a tree. Like, he went to lift his leg on it, but then he turned around and shat on the tree trunk instead. I didn't clean it up.

You mean there are more tree trunk poopers out there...? Perhaps they are the indigo children of dogs. Their strange behavior is only an indicator of a higher intelligence. The tree trunk poopers (TTP) are destined for greatness.

Don't they make little break down ones, now that I'm thinking about it?

He came home and gave it to every dog in this house, despite their vaccinations. Know what's fun? 7 dogs, including an elderly one going through cancer treatment, wandering around your house horking and spitting frothy yellow nastiness on white carpeting. Also, Last time Tonka got the runs all over our bedroom, Erica cleaned it, shampooed the rug and as she was letting the dogs outside, Tonka VOMITED the poo she ATE all over the wall and floor. So, yeah. Every poo free day is a blessing that ought to be celebrated. I hope Beau feels better though, poor little dude.

Also while I love big dogs, I'm not sure I'd want to own one. Having to pick up the huge piles of poo poo at work is enough. Don't know if I'd want a dog that leaves a pile of poo poo the size of a baseball. There was a basset hound at work today. He went 'baoooo bawooooo' I love basset hound barks.

Shadow poops off in the woods/brush where I don't have to pick it up.  I still carry a baggy in my wallet for those rare occasions he can't hold it in more public areas. Since I've been dogsitting/walking my mentor's two dogs, a malamute mix and a GSD mix, in her more urban neighborhood, though...

I think there's only been a few occasions where I couldn't fit his poo poo in a bag because I think he held it a few days and filled up a hollow leg or something because goddamnit dog, you are only 25 lbs.

He's also kind of crazy and poops in the house if there are any changes to our routine like me getting home late. We always know it is him because of the poop trail, and because he gets upset when it happens and lays down near it and cries. I don't really know why, he doesn't get in trouble for it or anything, and it doesn't upset him if another dog poops in the house. He's pretty odd though. Best thing he's done is when my girlfriend and I were first dating. We were getting frisky for like the second or third time ever when all of a sudden she just freezes and was like, "Baby, why is your dog looking at me like that?" Bandit had climbed up on the foot of the bed and was just staring at us with the craziest look on his face. It even creeped me out and I'm used to his crazy faces. Oh, dogs.  For the record, this is my little monster:
