Meet Jesse & His Awesome Tricks! (Yes, He’s A Dog)

February 22, 2012

This is Jesse. He may be one of the world’s most awesome dogs (there are a lot of them, admittedly). He knows tons of tricks, and not the kind that make him look just cute and adorable, but the kind that make him look cute and adorable and be also really useful, too.

Basically, I’m looking at my cat who’s idea of a fulfilling day was to demand breakfast, nap, nap, play with his catnip filled mouse, nap, smack a friend who teased him (no claws, thank you very much), purr, flirt, ignore, demand dinner, and nap, and thinking, why can’t my cat do all those useful things?

But then again, I’d have a dog and not a cat.

Anyway, luckily for us, doing chores are apparently not below a dog’s dignity.

Kudos to Jesse for being such a wonderful, happy, energetic dog and also to his fantastic trainer and human friend!

DJ Dawg Shows How It’s DONE!

February 11, 2012

Hey, it’s Saturday night, it’s 30 minutes to midnight, which means those of us who aren’t old and decrepit (that would be me) are dolling ourselves up, listening to some tunes and getting ready to head out for a night on the town (the cool way, which is around midnight). So what better time to show you how it’s really done. The cool you and I would like to own, that is.

DJ Dog here has that total nonchalant-I-couldn’t-care-less attitude down to an absolute science. Someone award that dog a Nobel prize in absolute cool.

If you ARE going out tonight, please spare the occasional thought of me, sitting at home, toiling away over the computer, writing and creating things for your entertainment. I’m also making stock for an incredible soup that will be put together tomorrow. Mr Marvin the cat, who is quite often as cool as DJ Dog lost his cool when it came to demanding ham I was slicing off the shoulder of ham I bought. Mind you, kitty doesn’t beg, he demands. And demands. And demands.

Perhaps someone needs to do a mashup of Black Ham Demanding Cat and Too Cool For School DJ Dog video. You know it would be awesome.

My Dog Ben

January 24, 2012

Yes, yes, I know this is a kid’s song (note: I refuse to spell it ‘kidz’, I mean, please, help them learn to spell correctly, it’s important!), but it’s cute, fun and makes you feel happy.

Also, sometimes I think we need a bit of innocence of childhood and our animals to permeate our world, no matter whether we’re at work or feeling rather cynical and burned out. Things like this help. Just like the weird Kona Cat thing helps us all just cackle hysterically (fact: this is how my roommate actually described me last night as I made him watch the Kona Cat video) at the weirdness of it all.

It’s about to be Wednesday, go visit your inner child and be one with the brilliance, purity and innocence of your sweet furbaby best friend forever.

N2 The Talking Cat

January 22, 2012

Now, apparently this is episode 8 of season 2 of this singing/talking cat internet show. So, no, I have absolutely no idea what’s going on. No idea at all. Except that it might make you want to hug your pet close and whisper soothing words into his/her ear, or maybe make you drink huge quantities of booze, or maybe rejoice at the bizarreness of it all.

I have no idea. I’m bamboozled.

I don’t know why a Siamese cat is zooming about in his rather cheap (but magic and flying! yes, flying!!) blue litter box, or why Transformer dogs are chasing him in their cushy beds, or why we get to spell out S-I-A-M-E-S-E  K-O-N-A  C-A-T.

Basically, it’s Sesame Street on crack. I think it’s crack. No, actually, I’m betting it’s Sesame Street on Catnip.

That explains everything.

Oh, and please, will some brave soul go and watch all the episodes and report back? Thank you.

(my pet will always) bring me sunshine

January 21, 2012

Yes, I know this isn’t really about our pets, but it’s so happy, so adorable, so loving it just makes you want to, well, get up and jive. Which is where it’s from – The Jive Aces.

So celebrate happiness tonight (it is Saturday, after all) and stay warm. And remember all that brings you sunshine, in whatever guise.

Oh, and hope my annoying DJ wannabe neighbour’s turn down their ridiculously loud music, because it aint this and I can hear evey guitar thrum.

Hmmm, I think I’ll play this again. Viva Pets!
