Don’t Eat Wandering Pigs

I love pigs. Especially in the morning with some eggs, sunny side up.

Reading the paper this morning it appears, at first glance, that West Virginia just may be the place I retire to. Why? Apparently they have pigs roaming free across the state.

Don’t believe me? Then read this from the Charleston Daily Mail.

Fight Animal Cruelty and Vote

My sister Copper is a Rhodesian Ridgeback and my brother Logan is a Bernese Mt. Dog. I only mention this because they’re immigrants to this great country we call America. They believe voting is a right that should be exercised by every man, woman, and dog in the country. Since this is the height of the election season I thought I’d do my part to get the vote out.

So, what are you voting on? No, not that silly Presidential Election but for something more important…the ASPCA Cat vs. Dog ‘08 elections. In doing so, you are also casting a vote against animal cruelty.

It’s a pretty clear who to vote for, but l’ll let you decide whether you favor Mittens (a lowly cat) or Rowdy (a fabulous dog).

To help you decide, here’s their unedited debate on the pressing issues of the day.

UPDATE: Oh my looks like there’s a big scandal brewing!

Hen Has Sex Change

I feel comfortable in my fur suit. I’m lucky in that way.

A pal of mine at the dog park confided in me recently that he just wasn’t happy being a dog. He said he’s felt like a kitten ever since he could remember and would do anything to become a feline. Unfortunately there’s nothing I, or any dog, could do to help his situation.

Or, so I thought.

Based on the following story, it appears there may be some hope. Granted it only deals with a sex change rather than a full on species change operation, but you have to start somewhere.

Fish Gets Hernia Operation

You ever lift something really heavy and have a twinge in your abdomen area? Then a few weeks later you notice you have this thing protruding from your body that keeps the ladies from checking out your six pack abs?

Well it happened to me when I tried to lift a 50lb bag of Milkbones. Diagnosis: Doggie Hernia.

Now a fish friend of mine knows how it feels.  Check out his story:

Deer Not Healthy in Restaurant

The following story isn’t a reason to close a restaurant down. In fact, I would think it would add to its clientelle.

Anybody else love deer jerky as much as I do? I know, I know. I never see it available at the local quick mart either.

Fat Cat

Jabba the Cat. That’s what comes to mind when I see this video.

Someday soon they’re going to need a crane to turn this cat over in its bed.

Dog Fails to Swim Across North Sea

I love a good fishing story. You know, it’s always how the big one got away.  I know they’re being told by liars, but I enjoy the stories anyway.

My favorite one involves a bone the size of a human, with plenty of meat still on it. Dogs have claimed to have spotted it, but say it was too big to carry back home.  When they go back to retrieve it, with radio flyer in tow, it’s always gone.

Well, here’s the latest ‘fishing’ story, but the good news is, it didn’t get away. And no, it wasn’t a tire they caught, but something much more precious.

Fudgie Comes Home

When I think of hamsters I think of Richard Gear. I don’t know why, I just do.

When firefighters in Scotland think hamster, they think of a cagey adversary resistant to temptation and the power of suction. Maybe it’s best if you just read this article to understand what I’m talking about.

Gorilla in a Mistress Search

Some on this planet are good with the ladies, others are not. Rin Tin Tin was an example of the former, having bedded over 12,000 chihuahua’s during his time on earth. Benji, on the other paw, was known to stutter and submissively pee when he encountered a female.

Me? I’d be great with the girls, if I cared about persuing them. But I don’t. A vet took care of that urge for me. That doesn’t stop me from tyring to help those looking for love in all the wrong places. Take for instance Polo, the silverback gorilla, who can’t get a chick to lay down with him.
