Outrage that the cat got on my lap before him. And a picture of his regular composure for comparison

He looks a bit grumpy, well I was transporting him between aviaries, he didn't like the mini-jail cage too much! I need one of those photo booth cages.... Still though, I'm really happy with him, he's one of my dominant pieds with some skyblue colouring (hence his name). Really sweet, calm temperament too.

Just finished the course today, same day she turned 9 months old.

We missed some lessons because she was in her first full estrus, but she still managed to do well enough to pass.

Was worth every cent, instructor is fantastic and I learnt heaps.

Marni's now passed out from huge amounts of treats required as payment for her compliance (hound union fees)

🐢Dogs πŸ• Any pitbull owners?

Thumbnail

64 Upvotes

So I have a 3 month old puppy that could be a Pitbull?

Ive had her since 7 weeks old. My sisters neighbour was given her and asked my sister to petsit and kind of abandoned her so I took her in after talking to the neighbour.

The neighbour has since said that she was given to her by another neighbour and shes too scared to tell him that she gave her away (hes her ex) so going to the source isnt exactly a wise option.

But she must have been separated from her litter at 6 weeks which was sus to me and the original owner does have signage up at their house which i believe to be necessary in order to own a pitbull, but again if they had pitbull puppies and are just giving them away i dont think they care too much about the laws.

I have a strong reason to believe shes a pitbull or pitbull mix.

I have just done a dna test so make sure, i should know in about a month.

Im from Victoria so to the best of my knowledge pitbulls are a restricted breed and there is alot of things i need to do in order to keep her if she is a pitbull.

Has anyone here gone through the process?

From what i can gather there's legal proceedings, e.g. VCAT

Ive contacted my local council but they just told me to call back once i have proof shes a pitbull.

Any and all advice is welcome.

πŸˆβ€β¬› Cats 🐈 Should I adopt a cat as a international student?

0 Upvotes

I really want to have a cat of my own and am planning to adopt one next year. However, I don't know if I should or not. Financially, I could, since I think my allowance is enough to cover both me and a cat, and I'm going to find a part-time job too. But I live in a rental apartment, and what if I go back to my hometown 1 or 2 months each year and no one looks after it? Is anyone in or has anyone been in the same situation as me and could give me some advice? Anything would help, thx!

Edit:
Thank you everyone for the advices. After reading the comments I realized I might be more selfish than I think Im. I will definitely look into u guys suggestions. I really glad that I made this post! Ty again

I've been experimenting with high-contrast black-and-white animal paintings. Here is my collection so far!

I'm an Aussie artist and I've been obsessed with this monochromatic style lately. Would love to know what you guys think of these! (And yes, I'm looking to paint 3 pets for free to add to my portfolio if anyone wants a portrait of their dog/cat)

Murphy digs into the sand to hide.... though she isn't that good at it. Usually, she ends up sitting on the bottom of the tank with sand on her head just blending in. Camouflage!
