Hairless cats *do* have skin flake dander, but the fact that they lack fur makes them tremendously less likely to cause allergic reactions in people who are usually allergic to cats.

Plus, I think they are cool looking in the extreme. I am a cat and a dog and a fish person. I also would have birds, except for 1) I have cats, and 2) my wife is terrified of them due to an unfortunate parrot/hair entaglement incident in her youth.

Many folks with cat allergies can also coexist with the Rex. (Devon or Cornish). Friends of mine with severe allergies and more severe love for cats had one. They still look a bit freakish, but nowhere near as disturbing as the Sphinx.

Make's it much easier for the chef. ;)

my brotha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jasper. Not really a girl's name, but it fits her. She's a cannonball.

I have a cat named Jasper, his a boy though;) .

Anyone else of "Yoda" think did they when this dog pic they saw?

I finally remembered what this cat reminds me of:
:3eye:

This is my Sophie. She was a Border collie/Sheltie mix. Great dog, very smart, loved to run and heard people. She's sitting on my dad's lap. She wasn't lap dog size, but you couldn't convince her otherwise.

My dad never hascome by an animal honestly. I had to move to Seattle, and couldn't take her, and my dad said that he'd take her, but she was his dog at that point, and I could visit her. He stole my sister's and his neighbor's cat that way too! :D

Sophie is very cute, Uryoces:) . You talk about her in the past tense. Is she gone, or is it just that you don't have her and dad does?

A BC/Sheltie is a great mix. I love to watch both breeds herd their familes around like a flock of sheep.

I had to have her down. My dad and I were both crying our eyes out. My uncle helped dig the spot on the hillside, and we ended up digging up the cat my dad buried earlier. So Cat and Sophie are buried together. I'd love to find another border collie mix when I have someplace he or she can run.

This shot reminded me of the incident when LBJ picked up his beagle by it's ears and shocked American dog lovers. I couldn't find any images to post of that episode but I did find this one which I don't believe I've seen in the news, so I don't know when it was from. Apparently, President Bush couldn't keep his dog in hand and appears to have dropped the poor darling

President: Stay back, everyone! It may be an Al-Quedog! We should probably drop some bombs or something!

Democrats: It's not this dog's fault! We should give it some free money!

UN Council: Ya know, we like this dog, and we support this dog, but I don't think we should feed this dog or walk it...let's get someone else to do that.

France: mmmmmmmmmmmmm. dog.

Bob Dole: If we gave this dog one of these blue pills, we could get it to stand up again.

Dog: Do you think licking my ass here would get me in trouble?

Clinton: Nahhh....Just tell them it was me.

That happened early last month.
Pres. Bush dropping Barney, that is

Metaphors galore in there.
