1. Yeah - LOL!
Of all the cat toys I have bought - paper bags are still the fave.

2. lol...
I've spent hundreds of dollars on cat toys over the years, and paper bags and twist-ties are the only things that interest them.

5. What is sad is that I have about 4 more doggie beds!!
I do have 3 dogs, but 1 sleeps with the hubby and me. One sleeps under the bed. And the one in the pic sleeps on the cold hard ceramic tile!! :shrug: Wasted $$$$$ ?????

17. Maybe now. Alinak used to love to use cinder blocks as pillows, but as he aged, he
grew to appreciate a nice comfy bed. Boomer loved luxury and took to the beds immediately.

21. We have purchased a few cat beds for Quinn, he uses none of them, BUT
the other day, while sitting at the computer, I watched him walk into the closet, grab a piece of egg-crate style foam padding, drag it out to the middle of the living room and use it as a pillow (didn't put the rest of his body on it, just his head).

He's a weird cat.

:P

4. LOLOL!!! My mother (inadvertently) bought a dog bed for her cat. But,...
her cat is so big (20 lbs.) that it actually fills the entire dog bed when it sleeps! All you see is one big black blob, curled around in the circular bed. It's a riot.

6. That's adorable
my dog has three beds.... a big cushy bed he rarely uses, a nice soft bed in his kennel which he enjoys occasionally, and a thin afghan my mother crocheted for him, which is his favorite.

7. At least he/she didn't eat it!
I've learned not to trust a pup with a dog bed until they're at least a year old. Preferably two.

15. He ate that the day it came home!
If it is off limits, then they shred it!!! If it is legitimate toy, they hate it!! I really wish I were one of my dogs. They have it MADE!

18. Our dog, Sally, is on my son's bed with him now.
When I go to bed she'll go to her bed in the corner of the bedroom, so that means the house is around 60-70ºF. Otherwise, if it was around 50ºF, she'd try to stay with my son.
We don't have air conditioning, so in the summer she'll stretch out on the bathroom or kitchen linoleum, or on the terracotta tile hearth, then we know the temperature is around 90ºF!
