Thinking of having one as an indoor cat for my small house, what am I going to be in for? I work shifts but have periodic days off so I think I can balance spending time with them.>why Sphynx?Less hair and if I am having indoor I might aswell have a cat designed for it.
is no hair why people get these things? because i never understood it.
>>5107246It's a mix of things. They have a very lean and defined look as well as incredibly clingy and active temperments when compared to other breeds. Most people get them for the temperment more often than not as the vast majority of Sphynx lines are actually derived from Siamese stock originally with a greatly increased metabolic rate, making them even more high energy than the Siamese breed. Throw in the fact that they are very warm, are a very unique tactile experience to pet and because they are so high energy that they constantly want to play or get fussed and it is not too difficult to see the selling point without even considering the lack of fur making them slightly less messy than other house cats. Also if you heavily pat them it sounds like you are smacking a piece of ham.>tldrThey are as close to a domesticated goblin as you can possibly get in terms of looks and temperment.
>>5107236This cat looks like it would wish me ill health
>guys i have an idea>cats..>but even more dirty and disgusting
>>5107258That's only if you live in a smeltering hellhole
Previously on /jef/ >>5090210Who is Jefrey (with one F)?He was found abandoned in some bushes filthy and covered in fleas late one night in mid-July 2024. He’s all grown up, and enjoys car rides, climbing trees, going to new places, and most of all, his capybara. Some believe him to be a goblin or gremlin. He was named after the Pixies song “Space (I Believe In)”.Jefrey suffers from mild ear-ectile dysfunction.Originally posted him here back in July 2024 seeking advice for potential health problems due to his folded ears, some /an/ons wanted more of him, and so now you’re stuck with him.
give jef tuna or i'm gonna KILL myself and it's gonna be YOUR fault
yeah he wants tuna
if it feels unfair to the other cats, just give them ALL a can of tuna and take pictures. post them here.
i'm so glad OP agreed to give jef a lovely can of tuna. i'm excited to see the pics

>>5103561I prefer their cousin: the elusive ringtail cat.
>>5107238Wow, very cute. They look a bit like our Australian brushtail possums
>Fur seals (actually sea lions) are sometimes spotted raping penguinsHow common is this for animals? Using animals smaller than you and of a different species to relieve your own sexual frustration

Damn, /an/'s slower than I imagined The thread I made last year is still here
>>5105996All interesting topics have been exhausted already, and animal rape is not very compelling to discuss.

What are some animal related sayings or proverbs?One of my favorites in English is a "wild goose chase." Basically when you try to do something that will never have any results, you're on a wild goose chase.In Finnish language there is "karhunpalvelus" which when translated means "a service of a bear." The service of a bear is when your intention is to help someone but by doing so you end up harming them. Suppsedly that comes from an old French fable.

If you make your axolotl uncomfortable it will trigger a hormonal imbalance that causes them to FUCKING GROW LUNGS AND BECOME A LAND ANIMAL??? (they are not supposed to do this)
Why must they suffer so?

My dogs breathing is bad Anyway to improve it?
I am going to assume what you mean is your dog has smelly breath. It's probably teeth tartar, you can try giving them Dentastix. Also, the "natural" way to control tartar is to give them a large bone to chew on.
I have yet to witness ANY dog that does not have a kinda stinky breath. Even the ones that supposedly do not stink according to their owners do in fact still stink. Same with cats btw. It's just an animal thing. They do not brush their teeth every day with toothpaste.
>>5107101>>5107093>I have yet to witness ANY dog that does not have a kinda stinky breath>I am going to assume what you mean is your dog has smelly breath.Nope, it's his breathing
yea
>>5107117call your vet. describe the noises the pup is making. the vet will ask you questions to get a little more information, like is he lethargic, is he eating, etc.. and then say whether you need to come in and blow a few hundo on probably-nothing-but-what-if-it's-not
Lions or tigers
hear me out..lioness
>>5106766Tigers
>>5106766lions are boring. way overused in emblems, crests, statues etc. never understood why european governments were obsessed with them for centuries

My next door neighbour is a nice old lady who has inherited an absolute turd of a xlbully off her son who died from a drug overdose. So you can imagine how disfunctional this fuckin dog is. I have 2 retired rescue greyhounds and this bully is DESPERATE to get through the fence to fight them. It doesn't understand that it will get torn apart by them as they are a bonded pair and work together like the power rangers. (it's still a vet trip for them) any idea how to make the basketball dog leave them alone? They are retired and want a chill life.
pepper spray is banned but can't you just buy some powdered cayenne pepper and blow it in the dog's face when it's fucking around near the fence?Even the stupidest dog will eventually realize it's better off not fucking with the fence anymore.
>>5106848White as my dog m8
>>5106856This is a good idea. Wife has cayenne pepper powder
>>5106862>retard forgets mutts existlol
>>5106828>I'm in the UK.My condolences. Report the neighbor for a thought crime and poison the dog when they're gone.
I would like to honour the memory of Triceratops, how would I do this /an/? Should I help birds out even tho they're merely just distant cousins of the ornithiscians?
Cave paintings and rock carvings.
>>5106439This. Go to a random cave and paint a Triceratops using only your hands
>>5106433Styracosaurus was way cooler
>>5106433You can start by giving him his cheeks back. He's going to starve to death.
>>5107112Ummmm don't you know giving ornithischians cheeks is problematic?
Imagine getting ripped to shreds and torn apart by Utahraptors, would you enjoy it /an/?
>>5107070Yeah, I'd probably enjoy that
>>5107070I would if it was happening to you.
>>5107110Why are so you mean, /an/
>>5107070you can experience something just like that, right now.
