My furry friend is sleeping off her evening meal.
Problem is that she takes up so much of the sofa when she really stretches out.
My bottom is on the edge of the seat as I type. :scratch:


It's ridiculous how much you will put up with if you are an animal lover , if it was a person you'd say get the frick out of my seat , if it's an animal you think , ahhh! you look comfortable I'll sit on the cold concrete floor so as not to disturb you.

I know - how we bow down to our animals, eh?

She still tries to boot me off the last piece of cushion I can hang on to.

My mum's budgie makes her turn the tv volume down at night.
It also goes back into it's cage and closes the door behind himself too when he has been out.

I slept in a double bed instead of a single with my dog for the first time last night. He promptly splayed out across the head of the bed, leaving me about six inches of space :lol:

We have "parakeets," the UK has "budgies."

We have "kerosene," the UK has "paraffin."

Yeah mine does that.
I have to push her across to get in.
She always seems to prefer my spot.
It's like pushing a heavy doughnut across as she doesn't move an inch.
I also get the donkey kick if she wants me to get up to make her food.

My grandmother used to give me kerosene drops on a spoonful of sugar when I had a cold.
Do you think she was trying to do me in? :|
But I think kerosene was different back then.
It wasn't blue for a start.

But what would I be saying if I said "I got gas" ?

Would I have been to the filling station or would I need a trip to the drug store? :?

I have two dogs and 1-2 foster Dogs... they have their allowed space so there’s no fighting them for space :lol: they line up on their side of the bed and get out of my way when needed - usually I don’t even have to say anything.

I bet you would get a good response on thread titled "Things you do for your pet that an animal lover wouldn't"

Both.

But not many people say "I got gas" after they went to the filling station. They usually say, "I filled up my tank," or something like that.

An American would probably think that you need a trip to the drug store, or they might recoil at the potential odor.

I believe both Brits and Americans say "give it some gas," to mean "start your car after you turned on the ignition."

Yeah, I tried shoving him over, and he wouldn't budge. He weighs a little over seventy pounds - I can't really make him move if he doesn't want to. He smacks me in the face with a paw (and hard) if I'm not getting up when he wants his breakfast. But I love him anyway :heart:

I got gas would mean fuel and I have gas means tooty to me :lol:
