"Pet" Peeves

[AlwaysSAI]

I <3 this thread.

Unlike most of you, I don't have a dog or a cat. I HAVE TWO CHINCHILLAS!

They are really fury squirmy animals and when I get them out for free time sometimes they get away from me. As soon at I'm out of sight, Bronco goes into the kithchen and squeezes himself under the dishwasher. I've grown so tired of taking it apart to get him out. Bronco also has a favorite spot in the bathroom (aka: Chin play room). Under my sink, apparently there is a gap that they can jump into which leads to the space under the cabinet. Basically, one second Bronco is there beside me on the floor and in a split second he's gone. As soon as I figured it out, I just covered the hole with wrapping paper.

I used to leave my rug in the bathroom during playtime until I figured out what they were doing. The little buggers used it as their toilet. They would go to the far corner of the rug, stick out their little butts and pee. Now I just take the rug out with everything else.

And, Thunder, oh Thunder. He is more adventurous of the two. He has a routine. He jumps onto the toilet seat. Then, he uses his front paws to unroll some toilet paper. AND THEN! He jumps onto my counter top and runs around until everything is on the floor.

I love them. They actually had to go to the vet today. It looks like they are allergic to the new dust I was using...poor boys.

I think it makes many people angry because its not the safest place for your pet if you got into a wreck. But then again, neither is the back seat, and thats where my dogs sit.

This is going to be your ultimate test for finding the woman of your dreams. Marry the one who thinks this is awesome rather than annoying. Trust me.

My dog hates the vacuum cleaner. He'll chase it around but as soon as I get close to him with it he'll run and hide under the bed.

Also, he hates when my husband and me don't pay attention to him. If we're cuddling on the couch, he'll snuggle right in between us. When we give each other a kiss, he'll jump up and try to get in the middle of us. He will also whimper if I'm not petting him while having a phone conversation. He's kinda annoying actually.

My cat hates it when she can see the botem of BOTH her food bowls (two cats) The odd thing? When I fill one of the bowls up she eats out of the half empty one.
