I know that i posted that i would stop playing the game, and i have. Though i have quit playing the game, sometimes i like to get on the website and view the new aircraft, so im technically still here. Anyways, now on to what I wanted to say. Another unfortunate event happened, this morning I found my bearded dragon dead in the terrarium. I had him for four years, i saw his body in a spot where he wasn't completely visible, so i tried to pick him up, and he was just frozen in time. Eyes and mouth were both open, so i was just shocked. For those of you who know, just a month ago i lost my tarantula who i had for 9 years. It was really terrible taking that hit, and now I lost another.
@MrSharp Agreed.
@TheBigEgg Though they may not have the life of a human, they should still be honored in death. We've buried many a pet, but we dont necessarily leave a marker, we just remember the general spot we buried them.
@ProKillaV12 no, by lost i meant she died. It was terrible.
Damn a tarantula? If I had one and I lost it I would get out ofmy house and rent a hotel
@Verterium lol
@Verterium I hope she will be. We actually, about 2 years ago, got a kitten and she is ADORABLE. I'm a guy, but i must admit I was like simon from the yogscast when he sees something cute

And she was incredibly smart to. one day, my grandfather accidentaly stepped on her, and he actually said he felt her guts when he stepped on her. Yet in the morning she was completely fine, no blood had come out, she didnt get squished, it was crazy. On her first day at my grandparents house, she got caught in a glue trap, and from that more stuff was to follow. But she was incredibly smart, she could actually play fetch! :D
Also yeah I know what you mean. The black cat I was talking about, I named her Daisy. Why? Because she is as harmless (to humans) as a daisy. She would never scratch a human or even hiss! My brother lifted her 3 feet into the air by her ear when he was 3, and she didn't hiss, scratch, meow, nothing! She patiently waited for him to drop her and then she ran. I'm glad she is back now, but scared because she has almost no voice. Her meow is very weak but she is a strong cat, I'm sure she'll be fine. @Deloreandude
@Verterium goodnight :D
@Verterium she was so nice, and at the same time she could hold off a fully grown water moccasin. She always would let you pet her....unless you pissed her off XD
Okay, I have to go sleep now so that when I wake up I'll just be getting out of my deep sleep/dream cycle so I will wake up and actually be awake, not 3/4 asleep. Goodnight! @Deloreandude
@Verterium yeah she was one of the greatest pets i've ever had
Wow. @Deloreandude
@Verterium ah...yeah little gray was actually probably older than 25, my mom got her in the late 80s i think. She was a tough cat, she was like a reincarnation of an old war colonel XD. Im pretty sure she's also one of the only cats to do a double backflip. I was walking down the 6 acres with my grandfather and my dog ran off all of a sudden. I started crying and oh my god little gray got so annoyed. She may have been half deaf but she could still hear me. She scratched me really hard and as soon as my grandfather saw that he kicked the cat into the air and i swear she flipped over two times. almost ALL the time shes an excellent cat for defense and company but she HATES the sound of crying. I still remember to this day, it may sound like cruelty but if you saw the wound you would know, it was well deserved XD
No it was a black cat. With yellow eyes. Classic halloween cat. @Deloreandude
@Verterium because little gray had a dog bite her back and we had to help her out
@Verterium ohhh... hold on a second....would that cat be a gray cat?
Well when they got to be 1 year old, my fish head butted into the corner of the tank until the died. Then our crabs ate them. I think the sea urchin did too. I still have the back bones of my grandmas cat, named tigger. He had the exact same coloring as tigger from winney the pooh. Also, recently, a stray cat that I raised from a few months old came back after disappearing for THREE YEARS! I helped her when a dog took a bite out of her back. That dog...let's just say that dog doesn't come near our house anymore. I didn't kill it, but I surely scared it. But, back to my cat, the dog had ripped out a chunk of her back and we had to take her to a vet. Luckily, she is a very strong and healthy cat, so she healed very quickly. And my oldest cat, who lived to 19 died 3 years ago. It was sad because he was a really active cat for his age. Also, if your cat lived to 25 (or more), your cat is insanely old. Most cats get to around 17 or 18 years old and then die, and I think the oldest is around 36? I don't know for sure. And about shooting animals, my grandparents have a pond that birds sit around to eat the catfish in it. So me and my little 8 year old brother will sit on the dock and just shoot at the birds feet with BB Guns. It's fun, and sometimes we challenge each other to hit a certain area of the water and splash to scare the birds. Oh jeez I just realized how much I typed here xD @Deloreandude
@Verterium wow. What you did with those rats was the right decision, they're vicious little guys. more than once we had to draw a weapon on a creature on my grandparents property. We live in the south and i live quite close to my grandparents house so i visit often. One of the most memorable things was the fact that a 10 year old cat we had held off a water moccasin just in time for my grandfather to get his tiny Beretta. took 9 shots.... and the first was to the head of the snake but it somehow still lived. The cat, named little gray lived to about 25 years and then she just wandered off. Also, what do you mean by suicidal fish?
I had suicidal fish. @Himynameiswalrus
Oh we had a rat kill and eat 3 of our chickens. Right outside the coop. They are really good at digging. We killed the rats. With a rifle. It sounds cruel but they had it coming. Plus they bit my brother before. @TheBigEgg
That sucks...my girlfriends best friend had a bearded dragon and she would always bring him to parties. He was super calm and we could pet him at any time. It was just cool because most of us had never seen a lizard like thing that big. Hers died last year, and everyone of her friends/family was sad. I'm sorry for your loss.
@Deloreandude :D
@Himynameiswalrus however, i will say hermit crabs are very interesting pets
@Himynameiswalrus My family used to have 3, it did not end well.
About 12 hermit crabs have died in my house
