one cat i had would once she learned my schedule. lay in front of the door before i left for work and refuse to move

2019-03-09 05:38:54 UTC  

But, Shinobi is extremely well socialized. Camo not so much.

2019-03-09 05:39:05 UTC  

but i had a roomate. so she wasnt alone all that much

2019-03-09 05:39:21 UTC  

Shinobi thought he was people until I got Camo.

2019-03-09 05:39:29 UTC  

my roomate worked nights i worked days. so one of us was always home

2019-03-09 05:39:39 UTC  

He literally tried to open doors and got frustrated when he couldn't reach the handles.

2019-03-09 05:39:49 UTC  

my cat leanred how to open doors

2019-03-09 05:39:52 UTC  

might get a Labrador Retriever, a brown one

2019-03-09 05:40:01 UTC  

so i had to lock the door when i used the bathroom

2019-03-09 05:40:03 UTC  

XD

2019-03-09 05:40:10 UTC  

honestly pets are only really ideal if you live suburban or rural.

2019-03-09 05:40:13 UTC  

Mine can open doors it's very annoying

2019-03-09 05:40:18 UTC  

@Leif_Ericksson99 I think that might be a good choice

2019-03-09 05:40:30 UTC  

@DankChum They become livestock in rural.

2019-03-09 05:41:10 UTC  

@Xychotic I wouldn't really call a barn cat or a hunting dog livestock

2019-03-09 05:41:27 UTC  

Would you call a plow horse livestock?

2019-03-09 05:42:28 UTC  

idk I've never dealt with horses. I just don't see how geographical location turns them into commodities and not pets

2019-03-09 05:42:36 UTC  

That's a lot of typing for a yes or no question.

2019-03-09 05:42:53 UTC  

I didn't say commodity. I said livestock.

2019-03-09 05:43:09 UTC  

That's because, in a rural setting, a "pet" is a value add to your homestead.

2019-03-09 05:43:17 UTC  

I am from a rural area and I agree with @Xychotic

2019-03-09 05:43:21 UTC  

In an urban/suburban setting, a pet is a luxury.

2019-03-09 05:44:30 UTC  

I grew up on a farm and always considered the dog/cat/goats pets

2019-03-09 05:44:37 UTC  

The cows and horses livestock

2019-03-09 05:44:57 UTC  

yeah that's what I was thinking

2019-03-09 05:45:30 UTC  

Dogs didn't heard or anything

2019-03-09 05:45:35 UTC  

@Whats gay anymore We used to treat cows as pets too when I was a kid, but they gave of some milk

2019-03-09 05:45:35 UTC  

@Whats gay anymore how was that?, one of my goals is to move to a semi-rural area and have a small family farm

2019-03-09 05:45:42 UTC  

Still livestock

2019-03-09 05:45:50 UTC  

Loved it

2019-03-09 05:46:03 UTC  

is livestock and pet mutually exclusive?

2019-03-09 05:46:08 UTC  

Well our dogs gave us company and that was it 🤷 I'll call them pets

2019-03-09 05:46:25 UTC  

Yes.

2019-03-09 05:46:43 UTC  

A hunting dog though, I wouldn't call a pet

2019-03-09 05:46:46 UTC  

livestock has real utility; pets are a luxury

2019-03-09 05:46:49 UTC  

@DankChum No, lambs where treated like pets too, still ate them though

2019-03-09 05:46:58 UTC  

Granted, you would probably love the shit out of your hunting dog.

2019-03-09 05:47:10 UTC  

No one I know with a hunting dog loves it

2019-03-09 05:47:15 UTC  

Really?

2019-03-09 05:47:15 UTC  

They go down to boars all the time

2019-03-09 05:47:20 UTC  

They're tossed away
