Whatever you want.

3. Oh, the critter folks are gonna GET you...

You'd especially like that bus if all the animals were WET...

6. Ewe!

But I saw a segment on tv once about animals (mostly dogs) who go to day care. And they actually have a big yellow bus that picks them up and various bus stops. They had a camera on the bus and most of the dogs sit on the seat and look out the window. I kid you not!!! They appeared (from the short segment) better behaved then most middle school kids.

But I bet that bus reeked. On the movie "The Labyrinth" there was a "bog of eternal stench". Whenever my dog gets wet he gets renamed the "dog of eternal stench"

LOL! :yoiks: At least I crack myself up! :-)

7. "Bog of Eternal Stench!" I love it! I'll be using that in reference to

rightwing websites in the future, you can bet on that.

13. Redstone, as a person who hates the idea of stranded pets left to

die in agony after a natural disaster...don't you want to be my DU buddy anymore? This post HURT me, sir. I'll miss seeing your postings around the site. There are a lot of other folks who are going to go on my Ignore list, too, of course, but...seriously. This attitude is callous. It makes me sad that a lot of the individuals posting this disgusting stuff probably have small children, and think there's absolutely no difference between a cruel, indifferent response to the idea of an animal suffering and a similar response to that of an injured or dying child...horrible. There's a reason that animal cruelty is considered one of the three main criteria for sociopathy, you know. Anyway, see ya. I'm actually kind of disappointed in myself because I considered you a friendly, respectable individual.

5. Uh Oh

:hide:

[Rabrrrrrr]

8. They can flame me with you

If the question is between fitting another person on the bus, or letting people bring their pets, I say, "Sorry pets - thanks for the companionship, but it's time for you to make the ultimate sacrifice."

Animals cannot have priority over the people. And not every person is unallergic to animals, either - I'm frightfully allergic to animals with fur. Though, if the situation allowed for it, I would not begrudge animals on the evacuation bus and would just suck up the allergy problem. But never would I allow animals at the cost of taking up room that people need.

10. Right on

[Dave Reynolds]

9. Oh damn.

The singeing has commenced.

:popcorn:

[RPM]

11. I'm with you....

No reason my wife should have to suffer with allergies because some dipshit "needs" to take their cat.

[kiraboo]

12. I'd make an effort to put food in the cat's bowl before I left.

I admit it: I care infinitely more about my children, my neighbors and my neighbors' children than I do about my own pet. Or anybody else's.

14. I'll miss you, too, JVS.

Except, not really.
