Do any of you have pets that.....

Posted: Jul 24, 2017

Watch TV. I am sitting watching my 20 lb tuxedo kitty watch TV. He is just sitting quietly and attentively watching the news with me. My other kitty loves to sit on my lap and watch me do puzzles or video games on the computer. What I find odd is that they don't make any attempt to go after anything on the screens. But put a string or a shadow in front of them and they are off like a rocket.

My cat watches TV. She used to have her own - cat video with chipmunks & birds,

and now she likes to watch nature shows on the PBS channels.

That's so sweet - What a nice friend

I think they just like to be with you. I have a kitty too and she puts me to bed and stays there until I fall asleep. In the morning, she comes back to get me and stays with me until I get up. My own personal guard kitty. Only problem is if someone comes to the door she hides under the bed.

Your cats sound so cute! I have a picture of my late cat (peak of 17 lbs) standing on hind legs, nose to TV screen during a hockey game. He wasn't pawing at the screen, just watching the puck and/or players zoom around. Maybe trying to figure out ways to hold a hockey stick since he did not have thumbs.

I had a dog that loved Meerkat Manor! - sm

As soon as she heard it on, she would come running! I used to leave the TV on Animal Planet when I left the house. She also liked I Love Lucy.

I used to have a dog that liked to listen to - Gordon Lightfoot sing.

If she heard him on our stereo, she would come over and lie down next to the speakers. If we put a different record on of a different singer, she left.

My dog loved TV - sm

She especially loved shows with other dogs, but even any kind of animal. As soon as she saw a dog, she would begin to bark. The really weird thing is she used to bark at CARTOON dogs Don't ask me how she knew what they were supposed to be, but she did. She used to watch Frasier reruns with me, and as soon as Eddie would appear on the screen, she went ballistic.

We also left Animal Planet on whenever we were not at home.

I loved that little Eddie. - He was soooo cute!!

We used to have a Yorkie would who watch - Olympic skiing.

That's it. Olympic skiing. Nothing else. We could never figure it out. Maybe she was a downhill skier in a previous life. LOL

Your Yorkie and I would've been great TV-buddies! - :)

My dog - watches Animal planet

And whenever there is a close up of any animal, she will start barking with vigor. She does not watch soaps. And if the TV is tuned off, she barks at the TV. We never leave them alone at home, someone or the other makes time to stay at home with them. The benefits of a joint family!

How many animals do you have and how many of those live in your house? We already have 4 dogs and 1 cat in the house, along with several fish and a couple of hamsters. Two of our dogs are small around 15-20 lbs, one is about 30 lbs, and one basset hound at 55 lbs. We are now getting a Rott-lab-St. Bernard mix!!!! What the heck are we thinking? LOL!! I am just curious about other households and how many animals you have inside. I keep them very clean, all on flea meds, scrub my carpets 2-3 ...

We are planning to get wall to wall for some of the rooms in the house. One is our cat's bedroom (yes they have their own bedroom) :-) We don't let them wander around our house at night. Anyway...I was just wondering if anyone who has pets ever gotten new carpeting and were they affected. I read something on the internet about someone's dog developing a tumor from the chemicals used. I've got 5 of my little critter babies and their bedroom floor is in ...

Has anyone ever noticed that sometimes elderly people want a dog, cat or bird after a loved one dies? This happened with my MIL. She wanted a dog after her husband died, but she was at an age where two things were occurring: 1. The physical ability to care for the dog (walks, cleaning messes)was diminishing. 2. An age where the dog was definitely going to outlive her, which means someone in the family would have to take the dog. We did finally talk her out of it. I guess I'm bringing t ...

Does anyone on here have any kind of exotic pets? I would really like to get some kind of a monitor lizard, either a savannah or a nile. ...

i am a severe animal lover, my pets are special to me, and i agree they can touch your heart in ways a human cannot. they do love you unconditionally, and that is a very special thing. i know because i recently lost my 3 pound maltese who was the joy in my life for years. i know i will miss her until i see her in heaven again. i dont feel animals have souls, but i do think God allows them in heaven with us in some sort of way. They teach only humans have souls and y ...

As the world keeps changing and things revealed throughout the Bible pointing to the the second coming of Christ seem to be happening more and more, the subject of the Rapture for all believers is mentioned now more than ever. While I know this is something for all of us to look forward to, the description of being "snatched up" in a micro second and reunited with our loved ones in the sky with Jesus has always made me ask what about our pets? They will suddenly be left alone with no ...

I will try and not make it long, wanted to ask people who have had more experience with this what they think. There is a neighborhood cat that has been around for a year or so. Always walking yard to yard trying to catch a bird here or there. Sweet little thing, never thought much of it as there are are a few cats that wander around. Anyway...last week we've been having bitter cold temps (around the 10 degrees and below). One morning we found her curled up on o ...

Is it just me or does it seem like the Anthony's had a LOT of pets who died and were buried in the backyard? Our family always had pets growing up, but I don't remember them dying all the time and burying them in the backyard! Personally, I wouldn't have my 4 year old participate in a burial for the family pet in the backyard if the youngster was attached to it. Do you think Cindy and/or Casey had something to do with their early demise? I read somewhere that some soc ...
