Ms Boods posted:It's kind of silly, but I really like the 'Talking Kitty' videos on Youtube -- the guy who made them went about 6 months in between videos due to a death in the family and other life issues in general, but since 1 January, he's posted two videos. I love this guy and can't let a mention of him go without recommending Scary Scary World: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGTE_QrgWVs Which also means I have to point out that the star of that video, Gibson, passed away suddenly last year and his memorial video turns me into a soggy wreck every bloody time.

Ah, poor old Gibson the cat -- the video wherein we learn that he's passed on caught me off guard. I'm glad Steve (the guy who makes the videos) kept one of the kittens. He does quite a lot of 'blink and you'll miss it' funny visual jokes; my favourite is when he's got to introduce the kittens to the hoover, and as he pans past the littlebox, you get a brief glimpse of what looks like colourful rainbow sweeties playing the role of kitten poo poo.

What is it and goons being so upset about fat-looking animals? You don't feed her, shut up.

It's not a "goon" thing, unless you think underfeeding/starving your pet is also something only goons get mad about. It's borderline whether you consider it to be abuse or not, but at the very least it indicates you don't care about the wellbeing of your pet when you allow it to get obese like that.

It's a cat laying in the worst possible way to convey their weight, and also a two day old post. Get over yourself. Also this is the cute thread and that is one cute cat.

You're the one who started the argument I never said it wasn't cute, just fat and it's not a "god d amn goony goons!" thing to think you shouldn't overfeed your pets.

This is Luis Soriano, a rural Colombian schoolteacher, and his two donkeys, the Biblioburros Alfa and Beto. As cute as that picture is, it's nowhere near as uplifting as the story behind it. quote:Luis Soriano is surely the most famous resident of La Gloria, a small town in a rural area of northern Colombia plagued by poverty, crime and armed insurrection. But Soriano’s fame has little to do with guns, drugs or politics. His reputation rests on the eight hooves of two sturdy donkeys named Alfa and Beto, his own two feet and his willingness to spend weekends tramping through rugged and dangerous backcountry. These are the components of a simple but brilliant idea -- using donkeys to bring a circulating library of donated books to the children in some of Colombia’s poorest and most remote towns and villages. PBS made a documentary about him: quote:In some of the film’s most affecting scenes, Soriano encourages the children who gather at his stopovers to tell stories and draw pictures describing their lives. One by one, horrific tales of paramilitary massacres, mutilations and other violent traumas emerge, and the children depict the sadness and fear that shadow their daily existence. But Soriano does not shy away from these harsh realities. After the stories have been told, and their emotional impact on the children recognized, Soriano tells them, “Now, let’s put it behind us. We have to live in the present and show that Colombians are good people. Colombia must change.” This is the mantra Soriano spreads from village to village in his one-man quest to rescue his country by rescuing some of its poorest children. Biblioburro: The Donkey Library

That bird photo booth from a few pages back reminded me of when I set up my camera to catch birds at my window bird feeder. This fat little guy got there first though

I love that point where cats realize they are stuck and just endure it with as much dignity as they can, as though they had every intention of being in their current situation.

My dogs do this right after I vacuum our living room rug (which is black because we are idiots and masochists). I think all the fibers are sticking up and it makes for a great back-scratching experience.

Alternatively, they think you loving ruined it and they need to make it look right again by getting their fur all over it.
