A while ago I made a video of Refurb and Tycho playing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdaP1Vqfhdk After I stopped filming I went over to the stairs and Refurb was just frozen there, she didn't move for a good two minutes and just had this look of absolute horror on her face:   Also, they do this a lot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AN7PrX5GHtM

Tycho loves having his picture taken... whenever the camera comes out he gets this look on his face Also, I've made a couple gifs of Refurb's limited jumping/climbing ability - for reference, that's Tycho's kennel and is about knee high on me.   She usually just sits there and looks anxious until I go over, pick her up, and place her in top of that pillow.

   It's always a party with these two around. I posted in the corgi thread ages ago (probably a year or more) asking for some advice on kennel training Tycho, as he would flat out refuse to go in his kennel for any reason. It was recommended to try a couple things like kennel games and feeding him in there. I followed the advice, and the results a year later: he piles his toys in there, then jams himself into the remaining space. I'll take some of the toys out, he grabs more and brings them right back. This happens every freaking day.  I guess it is his kennel... good boy.

Indy sometimes does that freeze on the stairs thing. Fairly similar posture, maybe it scratches their back?

I think in Refurb's case, she uses is as a tactical cover when she goes into attack mode; in the video in that post you can see her take some swipes at Tycho and then bail off the top step. Pretty clever, actually. In other news, both creatures seem to enjoy the rain we've had recently and spend a lot of time by the back door together.

Like the old west movies, where a guy walks into the saloon and everyone gets real quiet, the guy playing piano in the corner stops, and they all turn and stare... "You came to the wrong neighborhood, pal."

As adorable as Refurb is with her trippy eyes and tripod ways, I have to say I am so very smitten with Tycho's sweet face. I just want to love on him forever

I just want to love on him forever I was crazy anxious about getting a dog, but he's turned out to be the best decision ever    Stumpy legs! He got a little overweight over the winter but he's on a diet and exercise regime now. It's crazy hard to keep a dog exercised properly in Minnesota during the winter unless you really, really like the cold.

  She knows she's the boss. I should count through the "meow" pictures I have of her sometime. Most haven't been posted, they might just not the best meow of the pictures taken at the time or for some other reason... I've got a "Meows" folder that I haven't updated since the end of November that has 101 images in it. I got Refurb at the beginning of October. There's gotta be hundreds upon hundreds more of these.

As much as I love Tycho, he's just not as fun to mess with as Refurb. And isn't screwing with a cat, like, 75% of the point of owning one?

It's some kind of Air Hogs-branded ornithopter, I think I got it as a random xmas gift some number of years ago and just found it while unpacking. It's a terrible cat toy since it's big, fragile, impossible to fly, and sounds like a demon screaming out of the depths of hell when the wings flap. All of the points, however, do make it great for bothering the gently caress out of a cat. e - found a link to it here

That little bounce is both the most adorable and the saddest thing ever. She just wants the other leg to be there so bad! Also very glad to see that you're happy to fill in for ear skritches

Refurb met a bug yesterday. Lucky for the bug, it was on the other side of the screen door.  These two are weird sometimes...

You should know that an active duty USAF flying squadron uses Refurb pics as professional replies to some dumb work stuff. I got a text from the flight scheduler to take some bullshit early show time that I wasn't happy about so I replied with this: and then Refurb mania took over an AWACS squadron.

Hey I don't think this has ever been brought up in the cat thread but what's the origin of Tycho's name? Did you rename him or was it original because it's a badass science name

Stew Man Chew posted:Hey I don't think this has ever been brought up in the cat thread but what's the origin of Tycho's name? Did you rename him or was it original because it's a badass science name He didn't respond to the name given to him at the shelter at all, so I figure that it wasn't his original name and that he was probably a stray. I went with Tycho as a badass science name that's also very distinct from normal speech, figuring that might make it easier to teach to him.

This is what happens when you get a kitten and let a dog raise it: Or maybe she's just a weird cat, but I want to believe. On a related note, Refurb is such a lap kitty. Every day, she'll jump up on my lap when I get home... for a price. Skritches must be had. This toll cannot go unpaid.  "Hey... HEY!! aww yiss"

Does she meow literally all the time or just at cameras? Also how do you say Tycho's name? The boyfriend thinks it's "Tai-ko" but I think it's "Tee-ko." Who is right?

The neighbors were training their hunting dogs outside yesterday.  They sat there like this for a solid hour. And I think Refurb's a little confused by decoy Tycho.
