i need to get my dog to turkey with me because there was a death in our family and i have no one that can take care of her while im gone. She is a big dog 70 kg and i already asked turkish airlines if they would take her but they said they can‘t she‘s too big. I don‘t trust dogsitters or doghotels. I don‘t have a car to transport her. What should i do?
Got a carrot for me?
>>5128141I don't think you need to peel and slice carrots for a giraffe.
>>5133918But what if it's a human-like giraffe? When you see a typical Karen you'll see her picking the finest apples then slicing off half in her kitchen, then throw away after two bites.
>2015>we used to own horses back then>my 3 year old little sister was killed by a horse that kicked her in the head>the day after her death, my dad killed the horse with his shotgun>shot its corpse dozens of times until it was just scattered body partsWas my dad in the wrong?
>>5136236did your parents marriage survive that shit? i'd be impressed if it did.
>>5136236>Mom is secretly elated at the late term abortion
>>5136236That's just all around tragic. I don't need anyone to blame for it.
>>5136236Depends on how the girl got close in the first place for the full thing. But regarding killing the horse once it happened, no he was in the right, just how he went wasting ammo afterward possibly is bad (saving money is good, especially after a tragedy) or if he wasn't quick about ending the animal's misery (cruelty is useless to a beast). But the fact it killed a toddler is worth punishing severely, in the middle ages they exiled horses that killed people, which was the punishment for nobles found guilty (Western Europe). Tldr, should have not let her close, but after it happened removing the horse is justified and him going ham is understandable with grief and anger + betrayal if he made the mistake of trusting an animal with his family.
>>5136236>Was my dad in the wrong?Not for killing the horse. Human-aggressive livestock get culled, that's just what you do.

>>5114140>>5114611>>5114920You guys know that if you are holding your ground against an animal, like a dog for example, and scoop your hand on the ground and mime the action of picking up a rock- the animal is conditioned to know to fear this motion alone and will recoil/back away instinctually. Rock throwing is not a meme, it's real
>>5114131>>5114140kek. both true btw.
>>5134863maybebut maybe a rock dropped from above could, since the rock would not have to be small enough for throwing>>5114131that epstein guy was pretty successful too, i've been told
Sure, why not.

I'm going to have to fly with my old cat INA. few months. I'm scared she'll howl the entire way and I'm worried about sedation because she's 15. what do I do to make it easier for her?
>>5136762Cat distribution system at work
>>5136805I'd suggest taking her on a car ride to see how she handles long trips beforehand. I guess a plane ride would be pretty different but it'll still give you an idea of what she'll be like.My old bastard howls nonstop for like 15 minutes when I get him in the car but eventually he gives up and just stays quiet for the rest of the trip.
>>5136762Cute story. Hope you two have a good time together.
>>5136805>I'm scared she'll howl the entire way She will>and I'm worried about sedation because she's 15Don't worry about it, I had to fly with my cat and I asked my vet if there was a kitty-cat xanex I could give him, an the vet told me to just get some children's benedryl. Call them to double check the dosage if you don't feel comfortable doing the body weight conversion yourself. As long as there's no asprin in the pill its perfectly safe and it will just conk them out the same way it does to you or me.

share some animal names that sound funny when translated from your own languagein danish a bat is called flagermustranslated that would be a flappy mouse
>>5134330probably derived from them barking
>>5134331The most objectively psychotic part of the french language is the entire sequence of numbers from 70 to 99. French verbosity simply doesn't get worse than saying four twenty eleven to describe a two digit number.
>>5134548four score and eleven years ago?
>>5134548that is horrendousin denmarkistan they count twenties when they get to above fifty, but at least they count halves of twenty as well, so they dont need to mix in 11-1955 -> fem og halvtreds65 -> fem og tredssomewhat annoyingly though, that leaves the 90s without a pair for 100-109

Deep sea creatures are harmless. The only aspects of the ocean rational to be afraid of are: drowning/storms, sharks, and venomous jellyfish/conches/whatever, which are all shallow water concerns anyways.People piss their pants at images of ugly deep sea fish because they're ignorant and don't know they're almost all a foot or less in length; you could crush them with your bare hands. Take the infamous Bigfin squids for example: their body from mantle tip to arms is a foot or so in length. How could one possibly hurt you? Its tentacles are wire thin and its beak is probably less than an inch wide.The ONLY deep sea creature I could fathom being a rational concern is the Humboldt squid, but even then it has no confirmed kills and you could easily stab it to death with a dive knife if you have no other choice.
>>5134948>if any of them were dangerous to humans, we'd know by now. this is retarded. That's like saying you'd know by now if a venomous snake was in your yard. No, you wouldn't, retard, not until you notice it. You never know if it's there until you see it. This is very basic known knowns vs known unknowns vs unknown unknowns.

Cats are significantly less intelligent than dogs. They are slightly less domesticated and have the tendencies that come with that (more persistent independent action and innate skills that help them in the wild, reminiscent of the ways chimpanzees and orangutans outperform humans on select tasks), but overall, have inferior cognition and a less rich inner world, while dogs are complex social animals with more going on inside their head.https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/dogs-when-you-count-neurons-have-a-lot-more-than-cats/Some dog breeds, such as german shepherds, can have over 800 million cortical neurons, twice as much as the average mid sized mutt.Therefore, since dogs psychological needs are greater than their suffering is deeper, public policy should prioritize canine well being, while making concessions to a clean society and the natural order and regulating cats as if they are simply less aware of their situation anyways, because they are.Proposed changes:Dogs must have at least 1/4 acre to roam around in at any given timeIt is illegal to crate a dog except under less than ordinary circumstancesDogs must be allowed to roam in a fenced in park at least once a week, for at least an hour, if their behavioral tendencies allow itSpay and neuter must be delayed until sexual maturity for dogs to ensure proper cognitive developmentDogs must be taken to the vet for a physical and psychological wellness check at least one every three monthsCats must be kept indoorsCats must be spayed and neutered as soon as possible to prevent overpopulationWhen roaming cats are third class citizens akin to escaped rabbits
>>5136536>their shed fur is less pervasiveQuite the opposite, short furred animals shed more often because the 'lifespan' of the individual follicle is a lot shorter, and so individual hairs drop out more frequently. Its just slightly less visible because the hairs themselves are shorter. I also find its harder to brush a cat with short fur since you don't get a grip on as much fur. I just resorted to using my old comb.
>>5136635Short cat fur is the opposite of short dog fur. It just falls off your clothes. Long cat fur sticks as badly as short dog fur.
>>5136536>Long haired cats smell like shitty piss and ruin your clothes. Short haired cats just smell like basement+attic and their shed fur is less pervasiveI've had cats of all fur lengths and they all smell like nothing. It helps I don't live in a garbage heap though
