I don't know....I don't WANT to know....maybe she got her "slave" to push the button a whole lotta times. "No-one seems to have mentioned it, so I just wanna say that Carrie the earth human flatmate is hot!" Rio- it's kind of hard to tell WHAT she looks like. Or are you the type attracted to someone (or something) with whiskers and antlers? Now THAT will get you arrested, in most states (except West Virginia). More so than having a gator for a pet. When I was a kid there was an urban legend about the sewers in NYC running rampant with gators. Supposedly parents brought back little tiny gators from Florida as pets, and when they grew the parents flushed them down the toilets, where they hooked up with other gators in the sewers and started reproducing. (Sorry, gator peeps, that's how the legend goes.) Also, the gators were allegedly white (albino) because there was no sunlight down there. I never did find out if this was true or not- anybody been down there lately? The part about a growing gator fitting down the toilet always sounded a little bogus. And just for the record, I personally am totally anti-gator-flushing. Plus I didn't inhale. |

"I'd willing to donate a nice long hard bone for her" "ugh gross" Talula- THAT makes you say gross, but YOU can explain the technical difference between S&M and bestiality without batting an eye? Or a whisker? Kinky, to say the least... |
| Posted By: talula Posted On: Jan 15, 2007 Views: 793 | RE: What happens if gator, fish, ferret or human w i didn't say anything about beastiality! wrong post, man. also, just cuz i know a bit about a thing or two doesn't mean i'm gross-- just well-read. psychology and all that. |
| Posted By: Attila the Bun Posted On: Jan 15, 2007 Views: 790 | RE: What happens if gator, fish, ferret or human wins? I didn't say YOU were gross- just that you made a comment about the offer of "a nice long hard bone" (BTW "P.O.92" there's no call for that!) being gross. I did however use the term "kinky". Just what kind of "well-read" books are you reading anyway??? And are you reading them with one hand? And hey- just kidding!!! |

| Posted By: Attila the Bun Posted On: Jan 15, 2007 Views: 780 | RE: What happens if gator, fish, ferret or human wins? Now THAT'S the Holiday Pet Contestomundo spirit! LOL, ROTFL, and PIMP (Peeing In My Pants) I think a good idea for next year's contest is having this year's humans DRESS UP as this year's animal winner. Then have the pets vote! |

"how are you going to keep a full grown american alligator in an apartment? or even in a house? just curious" Yeah, there goes the neighborhood! "I wonder what happened to all those Girl Scouts and meter-readers.... hmmmm..... |
| Posted By: talula Posted On: Jan 15, 2007 Views: 774 | RE: What happens if gator, fish, ferret or human w well, i was more concerned for the animals welfare when i said that, but good point. i work at a children's museum / reptile zoo in the herpetology and entomology departments, and we get lots of people trying to get rid of reptiles that they bought when they were "oh so little and cute" that have, duhhh, grown up. i always think it's kind of crazy when they act all annoyed and upset like "we can't keep this thing"...it's like, what did you think was going to happen? yea, and we get a lot of calls to come out to people's homes or parks or whatnot to help remove exotic pets that the owners released. always fun trying to get a gator or anaconda out of someone's pool O.o |
| Posted By: JFK Posted On: Jan 15, 2007 Views: 772 | RE: What happens if gator, fish, ferret or human wins? I wasn't AS concerned for the safety of the gator. Somehow I think an animal with jaws that can crush, bite and snap your leg off doesn't have much to worry about around the house. ANACONDAS??? Are these people freakin' nuts? |
| Posted By: talula Posted On: Jan 15, 2007 Views: 770 | RE: What happens if gator, fish, ferret or human w well, herps (reptiles) have lots of special needs that can rarely be fulfilled in a regular house or (crazy as it is) apartment. unlike mammals, which generally have a wide range in which they can thrive well regarding temperature and humidity, reptiles are more specialized. as in, go a few degrees off in temp and your herp isn't eating anymore or develops sickness. herps like water monitors and crocodilians tend to have aquatic needs, too, which can rarely be provided unless you're both very wealthy and willing to put lots of time and effort into a habitat and general care. not to mention that such reptiles are difficult to care for even when one is highly trained-- there's always a risk involved, especially with feeding and cleaning because you can't really train crocodilians, snakes, etc. thus you can't use door feeding (a technique usually employed with polar bears and other large, carnivorous animals). |

Which might explain how and why some rich weirdos, like, for example, Michael Jackson, have their own private zoo. And caretakers. Shades of "Jurassic Park"! And we all know what happened there.... Me, I'm sticking with puppies. |
| Posted By: talula Posted On: Jan 15, 2007 Views: 764 | RE: What happens if gator, fish, ferret or human w i have some crazy pets myself, but not too crazy, and all i can handle. mostly rescues that were dumped on me. |
| Posted By: Attila the Bun Posted On: Jan 15, 2007 Views: 758 | RE: What happens if gator, fish, ferret or human wins? Do you mean crazy as in unusual (like llamas, boa constrictors, etc) or like mentally disturbed? Our dog (Princess in #54) is completely nuts; we "rescued" her when her previous owner, a neighbor of a coworker, died suddenly. Before that she'd been in 4 other homes and wasn't even a year old yet- so she had "issues". We call her Crazy Dog- when one of us leaves the house, she starts spinning in a circle and yipping, even if the other of us is standing right there... And that's just the tip of the iceberg. |
