Do you know if those sprays to keep away pets from certain pieces
of furniture really work?

Pero vi que alguien decía que un cocker es un perro in;util, lo que es totalmente falso.
Bien, tu juzgas.
Gracias por los halagos. Trato de estar bien, fisica y animicamente.

Corgis are herding dogs. I'd imagine they need plenty of room to run around, but I really don't know.
well, I think I will follow your experience and get a cat, a
nordic one. Just found it.

Pero NUNCA cambies un buen gato por un mal perro.
El perro callejero que encuentra un hogar, es el animal más fiel del mundo.
Los felinos son traicioneros. El primero que les rasca el lomo se los gana! 🙂
Cheers!

EDIT: quise decir que más vale el "mal" perro que el "buen" gato! LOL!

Re: Norwegian Forest Cats - my family often jokes that these guys are synthetic cats, though according to your link they are 100% natural. They won't even eat meat if we try to feed it to them!
Originally posted by SeitseI was about to say something like that. -I mean, isn't the whole idea of having a pet based on the need to care for something? in that regard, and in reality, a 'low maintenance' pet sounds a bit strange. it's just like with kids: they will be an incredible nuisance and force you to re-order your life around them. but that's also what makes it all good in the end.
Cheers, mate, I almost feel guilty of wanting a pet that sounds
decorative, when animals in reality are for loving and taking
care of them...
This horrible modern life of tension and coldness 😞
if you're not prepared to do that, there's always fish, spiders, insects and such, which don't need your constant care. they're also a bit boring because of that.
the more the pet creates disturbance, the more it'll have character, and the more you will love it. kids & pets should be seen and heard.

A dog for sure. Cats don't come to you when you call them.
We have a sealpoint siamese and she comes when you call her name. It may take her a minute to "feel" like it, but she always comes when called.
We even keep her litter box outside and she tells us when she needs to go out to use it! (No smelly box inside), Goes to the door and roars to be let out.
We have some outdoor dogs from the pound as well, there job is to bark at strangers and eat unwanted intruders.

Nice
The female dog seems have caught on much faster than the male, must be some innate thing.

I hope you have a good lawyer... or a videocamara always ready!
Originally posted by EsotericYeah, it's just annoying following your cat around calling "Here Mr Tinkles, here Mr Tinkles" and he/she just won’t come. You end up looking like a tool in front of your neighbours. Plus I have a tendency to name my pets stupid names. I had a cat for ages called Anchovy. And a pet Schnauzer called Schnitzel.

Now Schnauzers, they are the way to go! They don’t malt so they don’t leave hair everywhere, they are very intelligent, and they have a beard.
Originally posted by SeitseAny dog you got for that size apartment would have to be a freak of nature; get a young cat or even a kitten, they do respond to affection and are loving in their own way, and the poop aspect has already been discussed I think.
Young couple, 50 square meters flat w/ nice wood floor, both
work all day. Pet must be independent, require not a
lot of attention, have a personality (i.e. no nervous, insecure,
dumb cocker spaniels)
Or you could get a Great Dane with a colostomy bag, what the hell!
