OMG I'm ordering the AUSTRALIAN version right now!!!
ROFLMAO Have you read the blurb, especially FAQ? I like "Will it fit through my letter box?" (My reply would be)Ummmm..... Look at the size of it - what do YOU think? Unless your letterbox is the size of a dogflap.
And making a note in my records that you are clearly 80% Borg
No, I have my own major squicks, just spiders aren't them. Plus there needs to be someone in the world to protect everyone else.
It's a good thing she has her looks, because there really isn't a lot else she's good for. ;-) Snuggles and belly rubs - that's about it.
Well she IS a cat...she does not exist to please you, silly human, you are hers to command. Er something like that. (see icon...my macaw is the same way. Wrapped around her little talon I am...)
Is she a fairly dominant cat? My younger cat used to do that, when he was smaller. I always thoguht that it was because he liked the sound or the sight of the water spilling, but someone I know who's studying to be an animal behaviorist says its something to do with them thinking that they're in charge. "I didn't put that there. It goes." (sploosh) "Ha, lookit me. I control my environment!" Also that cats are nosy little bastards but not all that bright.

Spiders, smiders!!!! Just stomp on 'em. 8-legged critters don't bother me, it's snakes that make me shiver. I think it's because they don't have ears. Anyway -- I do love that spider catcher gizmo, and maybe if I lived in Australia with those bird-eating spiders, or maybe tarantulas, I'd buy one. We have non-poisonous reptiles here who like to lurk about the woodpile, under sheds, curl up under the porch. You better believe I look where I'm putting my hands and feet when I'm outside. BTW -- love your little kitty. Dogs have owners, cats have staff. My "Mr. Lincoln" is a doll baby, loves to be brushed, he's half Himalayan, half travelling salesman, loves to bat crickets around until they fall apart. Crickets aren't put together real tight. He's diabetic so he gets insulin each morning ($84 a bottle, thank you), and special (read 'expensive') food that can only be purchased from the vet. Really, the things we do for our four-legged children.
I live in Australia, and have to occasionally deal with the dinner-plate size variety. Don't 'wuss' me till you've met one in the garage at 6am before your first cup of coffee, even. My Bodie (7kg moggie) runs away from them too - he's not stupid.
Ooops, sorry...Spiders DO rule!...tomsisterOctober 21 2005, 12:36:56 UTC
I've not had the pleasure of meeting one that big face to face, so apologies. Only saw them on Steve Irwin's movie where he kept saying "Crikey." I think I'd say something a little stronger if I saw one!

I'll let you in on a secret - with my bare hands, too.
I have pics of some of the monsters I've manhandled out of the door. And ask probodie, she's seen me in action.
LOVE that icon btw.
Mind, I know what Santa's bringing all you good little girlies for Christmas ;)

And I love the thing about having to knock glasses over.

She has to have a five gallon bucket for her "water dish" because anything smaller, she knocks over. :::grumble:::
