Golden Retriever Puppies: The Fluffiest Evidence for God

Your dad or the cockroaches?
If rats don't spread Bubonic Plague fast enough for you, there's always the cockroach. The cockroach, harbinger of filth and decay. Nothing is quite as repulsive as the cockroach.

haha, no.
Lots of people have Mad cockroaches as pets. You can pet them and they hiss.

Lovely.
When I rub my cat's tummy, she purrs.
Not quite the same thing, lol.
Really they're quite nice. I prefer them to cats personally.

To each his own. But how does a cockroach display affection?

its irrelevant dogs, while sometimes mildly retarded, are superior to cats, rats, and roaches (ugh) for this reasoning:
you feed a dog, it loves you as its god and food provider
you feed a cat, it thinks it is your god and you must now center your life around making it happy
if you feed a rat... well when i feed the rats in my house, *SNAP* no more rats hehe
if you feed a roach, they multiply fervently, take over the world, and when we attack them with nuclear weapons cause thats all we have, well too bad they survived and we didnt so my vote is lets just exterminate from my house ok?

1) I agree that rats are cute, one of my friends used to have a hairless rat and it was the cutest, most playful thingy ever (besides kittens <3)
2) Rats can indeed be potty trained and will even sometimes naturally figure that out for themselves. Hamsters, too... in fact I have a hamster that trained himself to poop in a particular place in his cage and doesn't poop anywhere else. (It was SUPPOSED to be his bedroom but I guess he knows better than me
)
3) Besides kittens and hamsters there are two other critters I love:
That's a Gahfin Cockatoo. They're so playful that they might as well be a cat or a dog. My dad used to have one and I could lie on my back on the couch to watch TV and the bird would hop on my belly and roll around while I pet his neck and belly. They're not the best talkers but their sheer cuteness and playfulness makes gahfin cockatoos super awesome.
My dad at other times also had an african grey and yellow naped amazon, but unfortunately found out he was allergic to them and had to return them

Dogs are annoying because they're loud, smell bad, knock things around with their stupid tails, slobber, demand too much attention, and most of their fur doesn't feel as nice as a cat's (there are exceptions). The only dogs I really like are huskies, the ones that look really wolfish.
Plus I don't like the idea of being my pet's master, which you sort of have to do in order to have a well behaved dog. I want my pet to be my friend, not my underling.
Cats just do whatever they want but will still sometimes approach for a petting or a snuggle, they get rid of bugs stupid enough to come out in the open (and mice/rats), they don't have to be let outside to drop a deuce, and they're super duper cute

Actually, rats do that naturally. While wild mice leave droppings everywhere they go, rats tend to do it only in certain places.

That doesn't describe my dogs. While my dogs can be loud, they only smell bad if they haven't had a bath in weeks; they don't knock things over with their tails or slobber; they don't demand that much attention and their hair is as nice as a cat's. They are also my friends, even though I have to keep them in line, and I don't have to let them out to drop a deuce, although I try to let them out for that purpose as much as possible.
Anyway, I know you were just responding to someone else's problems with cats.
The main difference between cats and dogs is that dogs are much more interactive, while cats are just sort of there most of the time.
Of course, then there are the exceptions. While I love my current dogs, our last one was the best dog possible, and precisely because he didn't fit your description of dogs. He barked probably a total of 2 times in the 15 months we had him, liked to play just enough to be fun but not so much that he was annoying about it. And most importantly, he really was just our friend. He pretty much did what he was supposed to and never really needed any discipline. We never had to be his master.
Anyway, sorry, now I'm rambling.

Two Lovely ladies agree. How can I be wrong ^_^
Hehe, perhaps. But since this is for proof of god, she does show herself to me in 'cat-like' form:

I love Ferrets, every time I have a chance to interact with one I do. Wish I could own one, but where I live won't let me.
Mmmm, Breakfast, lunch, and dinner.....I mean, Cute:angel2:

Ferrets are overrated...they're basically just stinky ill-mannered weasels. Girls like ferrets because they are cute and guys like them because the girls think they're cute. Their hobbies include random biting and wreaking havok in marsupial based ecosystems.

Personally, I think my wife is the most adorable thing ever, and is irrefutable proof that God exists. Plus, she came already house-broken, she never bites (hard), she only drools when I come out of the shower, and she almost never knocks expensive things off of tables with her tail. And she purrs when petted. But she is inconsistent about coming when called...

What does the cuddliness of Willie Nelson have to do with anything?

Because A_E brought up the subject, and he's got Willie as his avatar, and I wonder if Willie were cuddly like a retriever puppy years ago?
Also, the thread wasn't going anywhere...
