Gemmill 34545 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 First day in my new house ended with me having to dismantle part of the kitchen, removing the oven etc, and then ultimately kicking one of the plinths out, after one of my idiot cats fell down the back of a sealed cabinet and got stuck. He wasn't making any noise at all, not moving around, nothing. I genuinely thought I was gonna hoof this thing out to find him dead with a snapped neck or something. Little twat burst out covered in dust, terrified, and was asleep as if nothing happened ten minutes later. I, on the other hand, have to get a new plinth cut and block up the gaps at the back of the unit to stop the little tit doing it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawb 3660 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Got her home last night (potato quality photo - old iPad). Just got a nice fight on with the breeder and insurance for the vet bills now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34545 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Who have you insured her with? I mean even if you swap now, whatever she has will be a preexisting condition, but Pet plan's lifetime plan is one of the few ones that doesn't insist that anything that happened to them in the previous year is now a preexisting condition at annual renewal. One of my cats is asthmatic, and all of the cost of his inhalers is covered for life on their lifetime plan. Might be worth shifting in case something else comes up.

strawb 3660 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Pet Friends. It's their top package because she was always liable to have health issues. They are claiming that the kennel cough caused her pneumonia, when in reality it was her really small windpipe which is genetic, so technically a pre existing condition, but there was no way of anyone knowing until something happened. £1373 last night plus the previous £700 odd, so I deffo want it back from someone. We told the breeder out of courtesy so she could keep an eye on future litters and she got proper defensive, never been an issue for her dogs blah blah. Told us to contact the kennel club if we had any issues. Well I wasn't going to but now I just might, doyle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he keeps getting himself stuck behind fixtures and in walls until your house resembles the one from The Young Ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 17815 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Christ, the thought of having to apply an inhaler to an asthmatic cat, how does that work? These pets sound expensive, hard work, destructive, and unappreciative. May as well have kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 I once sired a child but that BITCH who I refused to marry took him to live in Yarm. What a relief that was. She's a right bitch and I hope he grows up to be a sex offender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have green tea every morning and every other night, you have another that has a laxative effect in about 8 hours. The netty in our house has taken some pummeling over the last week, I'll tell you that much. I've a beer belly forming and I need to get shot of that straight away.

No harm to those with pets but, howay man, get a grip. Probably right mate, I have never wanted kids so it's not an issue for me. All I know is my dog loves me unconditionally, and the relationship a lot of people have with their kids/parents isn't that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 5934 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Fwiw, most people I know with kids love them unconditionally. To be loved unconditionally in return isn't usually high on their list of reasons for having kids though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
