It is INDEED a wonderful thing to see so many animal lovers (and rescuers) like myself in here ~ and doesn't it make you all feel better to know that we are no longer subjecting them all to second hand smoke! It does for me ~ especially since my dogs rarely leave my side.

I highly enjoyed seeing all of the pic's of all your babies :)

gawd he's cute, b!

I know, right?!?!?! He's the man.

And he is sooooo happy with me vaping now. He even has his favorite flavors. Doesn't care much for the tobaccos or menthols, and ignores me when I'm using those. But he's absolutely in love with FVIC and Carmel Mocha Frapp. In fact, he goes crazy at the first whiff of CMF and gets all excited. I blow vape rings and he chases them and tries to eat them, and if I don't puff often enough, he jumps in my lap and tries to get his nose in my mouth.

Funny, because he has always HATED analog smoke and kept as much distance as possible. Animals are smart, they know what's poison and what's not!

Yes, my cats would be sitting on my lap and the minute I'd light up a cig, they'd run away. They're a lot smarter than we are in many ways.

Cute poochie by the way. He looks absolutely spoiled rotten.

Thank you! As for spoiled, you don't know the half of it! I work from home most of the time and converted one of my bedrooms to an office. Of course he has to hang out with me, so he has a bed in here to chill in. It's a LoveSac (look it up if you're not familiar, it's like a really nice giant bean bag). It's custom made and TEN FEET across (2 feet bigger than this lovesac), fluffed up it's maybe 3-3.5 feet tall. 3 adults can lay in it very comfortably. It was VERY expensive, but he's worth it. He lays in there and chills with one of his hundreds of toys or a bone and just lives the big life. He's got it good!

Here he is chillin in his giant bed:

That is freakin awesome man! I don't dare google it.. I know i'd never afford it lol. I let my pets claim what they will when I'm not sitting in it. I do feel kinda bad I cant spoil em like that though... haha. I think they're ok though, it could be much much worse for them! Afterall, theyre treated like kids around here, and cuddled and talked to, so I guess I shouldnt feel too bad. LOL

But that thing is friggin epic! If I want to save up for one, how much you think I am looking at roughly?? If you don't mind me asking... PM me if you want, and thanks :)

Brace yourself. Are you ready?

This one was around $1300, but I didn't pay that. A friend of mine had it custom made for him, then fell on hard times. He was laid off and several other things happened at once leaving him in bad shape financially. Since I have a few extra bedrooms, he moved in with me for a few months while seeking a job and while he was here Levi decided that he loved the giant bed. Well, the friend landed a job in California and wanted to make the move with as little stuff as possible, and was kind enough to give the bed to Levi!

Now, they do have a model called a gamersac that is 3' in diameter and would be perfect, not to mention much easier to handle! I think that one runs around 150-180...

I have two dogs and two rats, it was three dogs but one passed away late last year. I would have more but have promised the husband no more than three dogs at once.
As for the missing space now, I have toyed with getting a new dog or perhaps taking on a foster. I enjoy working with dogs and used to foster a lot until my Hektor came along, he does not always play well with others so I have to be careful to get a foster that fits with the family.
As for the rats they belong to my son and my daughter in law but are slowly becoming mine.
I love animals and would have more if it were possible, sadly most small animals like cats and ferrets are a no no in my house as one of my dogs is high prey driven and will eat them if given the oppurtunity. As it is now he is fasinated with the rats and has to be banished outdoors when ever they are out.

I like that hairless cat, those are pretty neat looking, if I ever get a cat it would be one like that.

i heart this thread. jazz, that's awesome. :lol:

whitbit, my beagle hates all "no words", which include "wait a second" words or "what are you doing" words, or "you stink" words. but she cries, not grumbles, lol.


Oh that is awesome! So many people think they aren't capable of understanding, but everyday living with them shows that that is more than possible. He is way worse normally... he hears the camera turn on and knows I am paying attention, and he wont do it as bad. Otherwise... he gets mad! LOL :)

I LOVE dogs. :)
