On House Cats and the Food Chain.

I have a cat.

He's a pretty cool cat. He likes to eat and all that jazz, which I'm okay with - I support his habit.
I know he relies on me to feed him, which is cool - I like to mix things up. Dry food. Wet food. Some days, he just doesn't know what's coming at him!

The other day, as I was opening a can of wet food, I realised that it was a combination of chicken and beef, and it occured to me that in nature, ain't no way in hell any domestic-sized cat be takin' down an Angus-anything.

Veal? Again - it would be a little over-zealous for a house cat to try and take one of those down.

I mean I get it - chicken, fish.

But cow? Lamb?

My cat throws up bugs.

Case and point.

Cats are greedy fuckers who've got it made.

Living in a climate controlled environment with food at scheduled intervals consisting of animals they couldn't even befriend let alone eat.

However, I love my Bush baby minou with all my heart. *huggles for Tigger*

The Yuletide season is upon us. For the better prepared portion of our community, you've finished your x-mas shopping. For the bulk of my readers, you probably haven't even begun. For most people, x-mas shopping involves wracking your brain for -the- gift that will compliment your loved ones. For others, a last minute dash to the dollar store will suffice. Then there are the people that shop for their pets. These are not only the people that buy for their pets, but also give from their pets as well. From: Mittenz Major corporations make millions off of these chumps pet owners by milking them for everything their worth. From holiday themed pet toys, to pictures for your best friends with Santa Claws (heh heh) Today I received an e-flyer from PetSmart about some handy-dandy last minute gift ideas for my pets. I am the disgruntled owner of two disgusting cats. Regardless of the fact that they are ungrateful bastards, I wouldn't buy them presents strictly on the principle t

Okay, right off the bat - Approx. 17% of Canada's population is children/youth under the age of 15. A survey conducted in 2003 by the Canadian Teachers’ Federation says watching TV is a daily pastime for 75 percent of Canadian children, both boys and girls from Grade 3 to Grade 10.( ... ) Thus, the average child in Canada spends on average 42 hours a week in front of the television or computer.( ... ) That is a huge demographic. A huge demographic of children being subjected to not only the tripe that's on the tube, but gallons and gallons of information that's being processed through their developing brains on a daily basis. Television stations make millions off colourful, musical shows that get kids hooked. And if they promise a jump on a learning curve, parents will eat that shit up with a spoon. Anything to make their kids smarter and give them that 'edge' and parents forget that they're propagating the problem of hours in front of the boob tube. That said,
