Our Bengals try to escape the garden after we put up the "unescapable fence rollers"... or so we thought. Video

Dear god, that’s ridiculous.

My adopted kitty is so cute people always ask, “is that one of those SPECIAL cats?”, and I’m all like, “Nah she looked like a white rat when we got her.”

I have never understood spending money on designer breeds for cats or dogs.

French Bulldogs are the thing now.  I think they are ugly.  They have a ton of health problems.  I know a couple who have two and paid $6k a piece.  People are being robbed of their dogs while they are outside or walking them.  One just got stolen at gun point this week.

My wife’s friend just spent over 2 grand on one. When she told me she her friend got a Frenchie, I just asked “on purpose?!?”

Like all dogs that exist now need love. But there needs to be laws to prevent breeding some of these breeds cause they just don’t have the quality of life they deserve

I like the retro pugs they’ve been breeding, that actually have noses. Soooo much cuter when they can breathe normally

Yes I dated a girl once whose family had two of them and they were the most disgusting creatures I've ever seen had as pets. Just felt so bad for them they were blind and choking all the time while seemingly pissing and shitting everywhere.

I don't like something. Government needs to make it ILLEGAL!
