OT: Wrong pets?

Sourced from cow's milk.

For 100 quid one could be patient.

Yeah, but few barns hold 80,000 head. Harris certainly isn't the only one but their land is next to a heavily traveled interstate highway.

Parrots. That's what you need. Norwegian Blue. Crap everywhere. Who's a pretty boy then? Cup of tea, cup of tea Squaaaaaaak

I've got 5 of those too.

Well I've been looking for one for up to =A340 for the last 2 months, th= ey seem to have gone up in price recently. Of course it did mean I got = a lot of money for my kittens (=A3100 each, popular colours sold in the = hour, others took a week).

So why didn't you keep some of the kittens below ?

Fark, our council kills them because no one wants them.

Inbreeding.

You wouldn't get =A3100 of meat off a cat.

I do find it amusing that people care about this though. Everyone got a= ll upset because they were eating horse instead of cow. So what? Eithe= r you don't mind eating animals or you do. Why is a horse wrong to eat = but a cow not?

They're very popular around here. I see as many folk with cats as dogs.=

And for some reason neither is sold in pet shops, so they all have to be= sold privately.

In fact I haven't seen parrots in pet shops recently either. Something = funny going on. More meddling government regulations.

Yeah, we've just seen them banned here. And in theory they have to be microchipped and desexed before selling them privately although most just ignore that s*it.

That's the reason the council has to kill the cats, they have to microchip and desex them and they obviously have to charge the new owner for that and when no one bothers with private give away free kittens, no one is going to get them from the council.

Are they anything special like Norwegian Forest Cats or just run of the mill moggies?

I remember one ill-fated cat adventure from my childhood. We bought our milk at a local dairy farm and I observed there were a lot of cats around. I asked the farmer and he said "just pick one you like. They're nothing special." It was going well until I got the damn thing in the car. I was in the back seat getting my ass handed to me while my father was in the front seat laughing. I finally managed to get a door open and launched the cat.

because a horse is a "four-legged friend"

i KNOW. A not-so-pleasant Pheasant Plucker

In your case, yes. They might end up smarter than you.

Hey, I'm not a Glaswegian.

But you didn't have enough of a clue to get qualified in an area where there were jobs where you prefer to 'live'

There are f*ck all jobs anywhere in the UK. This country is a piece of s*it.

Must be why the unemployment rate is so low.

You're currently free to move to anywhere else in the EU that takes your fancy. Better move now tho, you wont be able to in 6 months.

You must realise those figures are fudged by the government.

I'd need to learn to speak a foreign language, with all those stupid things like feminine nouns.
