I hate ALL cats except Lions, which is my favourite animal.

Ever since I was a young boy I just wanted to be rich enough to have a pet lion.
I was at a zoo today and thought one of those giant tortoises would make an awesome pet. Problem is they will likely outlive you by about 100 years.

Chiang Mai. It has a panda but not too much else. Too bloody hot for the animals tbh.

It reminded me of a time went to a zoo and it was really terrible. All it had was one small dog.

It was a Shih Tzu.
Enjoy and be safe my bro!

Can you steal us a panda ? On a job an their neighbours have bamboo everywhere and whilst pissing on it slowly kills it ,I'm in a losing battle but If you gots me a panda it would be game on

I enjoy it when my cat turns up with a dead snake at the back door. One less I have to worry about.
My cat did this when the wifey was pregnant. 4 baby browns over 2 weeks. All alive, the 1st of which she released into the kitchen. I used to think cats were cool

Anyone that doesn't like pussy is dead to me.

Or have I misconstrued this thread?

Bamboo grows so fast. It's main purpose here in Thailand is scaffolding.

re the Panda: I would but they only have one (china took the other one back for some reason).

He does look a bit lonely though.

Foxes, wild pigs and deer are all increasing their numbers in SE QLD.

I also hate running bamboo and the new 'bamboo' grass the nurseries are selling. Both time consuming to remove.

I think the main reason people care less about cats roaming over dogs is that cats don't attack and kill people. Dogs do.

But cats are a problem for wildlife, especially strays. I let my cats out but only because I can track where they go, I keep them well fed, I never let them out at night, and we don't have much wildlife in our immediate area.
I agree to a degree with what you say regarding dogs, but i think its more that we have bad owners than bad dogs. Some dickheads get powerful dogs and make them aggressive thinking they are more protective, yet don't protect their dog by not securing it or letting kids be around the dog unsupervised. Dogs are naturally brave and protective they dont need to be antagonised to viciousness.
Putting a bell on your cats when you let them out at least gives their prey have a fighting chance.
