Currawong posted:The ads for birds are so often heartbreaking. There was a cockatiel in a tiny dirty cage that "HAS TO GO TONIGHT!!!!" Ads worded like that always make me wonder if they just kill it or let it outside if no one takes it. I found an ad for 2 macaws for $2000. The photo had them in an empty cage with 3 perches, all the same diameter, that might be ok for one bird. The cage was in what looked like an unfinished garage. The bottom of the cage was completely coated in poop  I told my bird-disliking man about it and showed him the picture, and even his stoney heart grew sad. If we had a house I might've brought the birds home. I hope someone nice takes them home Big parrots in lovely cages break my heart.

Here's the listing: http://huntsville.craigslist.org/pet/3202859395.html While you're at it, stop by Huntsville and pick up Wall-E here from Animal Services:  Seriously, is there someone around here breeding little dogs with wonky ears? Edit: In between this post and my last one, yet another person posted about wanting a wolf hybrid. "Must be good with dogs and cats" and also they don't want to spend more than $50. If I didn't think that would just lead to bad things, I'd start claiming that Quaffle was a wolf/lab mix or something just to hear the reactions from people.

At first I thought that no one here believed that pit bulls were sweet dogs, then I saw the "I'm 100% sure he's real" part and finally got it. I feel kinda slow... I just checked CL for my city and it all seemed vegan kosher except a strange post about this dog vaccine conspiracy....  But it doesn't end there  With the rate that my dog kills and eats possums, I'll take my chances

 This ad just stood out among the rest. The uncommon dog breed and the refusal to show pictures is kind of suspicious. Oh, and the fact that they only posted it today and they NEED this dog gone by tomorrow. Edit: just watched the dogs 101 thing on this breed and they claim that this breed is thought to only have about 1000 dogs in the world. Why would one be in the middle of southern VA in this situation? I am calling BS on this ad at this point!

Nonsense, it's 90% house-trained! Seriously, I'm liking this plant. It has character. Takes down goats? Very vocal? Good with kids, cats, and larger dogs? How many of you can say that about your houseplants? I wonder if they'd ship to NY.

Let's be honest, she would not even get past undergrad pre-reqs. I always wonder what people think being a vet actually consists of. Because I can remember being 15 and thinking  I WANNA BE A VET BECAUSE I LOVE ANIMALS and then remembering dissection makes me queasy.
