My Son Always Texts To Say He's On His Way Home. I Open The Door, Letting His 17-Year-Old Cat, And 16-Year-Old Dog Know That He's On His Way. This Is Them Waiting For Him
Thought it was adorable and wanted to share.
Miss Frankfurter 3 years ago
Our little dog used to do this with my dad on Thursday nights when my dad left the legion after darts. Mom wouldn't tell her because he always left at a different time each week. But she'd just go on her own, sit at the door and sure enough he would be home in 20 minutes. One night she went to the door, sat for a few minutes, then went back to her bed. About 10 minutes later she went back to the door and sat. 20 minutes later he was home. My mom asked him if he was delayed while leaving. He said he had been coming down the stairs and met up with a friend. They stopped to talk for about 10 minutes and then he left. Yes, you are hearing the theme from the Twilight Zone.

Our dog and cats always know when we’re going to be home in a few minutes. I’ve seen them start to congregate a few minutes before I see my husband’s work truck come down the street. That’s the same time the dog starts to bark to announce it. My husband has seen them do the same for me. How they know all that is a mystery that’s been studied, and by scientific method, but has yet to be definitively solved.

Somewhere In Heaven There's A Black And White Dog Taking Care Of Seven Golden Lab Puppies
Daisy the dog lost all seven of her puppies in a barn fire at the end of February, and wasn’t the same afterwards, spending most of her days going to the remains of the barn to look for them. Her owner posted a desperate appeal on Facebook, asking if anyone had puppies she could foster. The next day, an owner of eight orphaned puppies contacted her, and Daisy took to caring for them straight away

Our old dog came from the shelter (all do actually) but she was the official "nurse" mother to any puppies that came in. After a year of doing that they decided she should go to a good home instead of being locked up and allowed her to be adopted out. It was one of those dad doesn't want dog, then dad falls in love with dog situations. They were best friends. They both got cancer around the same time. She died and about a week later he died, even though Drs said he had at least a year. I know it was because his 4 legged girl was gone.

No wonder people love animals. There’s plenty of evidence suggesting our adorable critters give us comfort, reduce stress, encourage exercise, and help us forget our everyday troubles. Not to mention that sharing our lives with such great companions makes us feel far less lonely and works miracles for our mental wellbeing.
Today, there are very few things people share in common as much as the love of our four-legged friends. According to a poll by YouGov, 69 percent of American adults have at least one pet in their home, and it seems that dogs, cats, and fish are the most common choice of pets.
Moreover, these animals are extremely cherished by their owners. The vast majority, 88 percent to be exact, see them as members of their family. More than a half of the respondents allow them to sleep in their own beds, plan to buy them holiday presents, and 50 percent revealed letting their pets lick their faces.

I Rescued A Stray Cat In My Neighborhood. At Night His Brother Would Come To Visit Him. I Really Had No Other Options
Stoopham McFernybabes 3 years ago (edited)
We kept having to chase away a young cat that kept coming to our house and bothering our old man cat. She apparently had an owner but the owner didn’t seem to be concerned about her ever. One very raining day she wandered into our back door, very wet and straggledy looking and instead of jumping on our old cat or him trying to fend her off with a hiss, he just sidled up to her, put his arm (paw?) around her and started licking her off, while she snuggled in. Decision made - she became our new kitty.
Yayaboobo 3 years ago
I didn't know this was actually a thing. We took in a stray but he would leave every morning when I left for work. One day I came home and opened my door. "Bailey" exited and an identical cat rushed into my house and took his place in front of the food bowl. I had no idea I was taking care of two different cats until this day.

It's a run lead, not a chain. If people don't have fences/gates on their property they're often used to let the dog run around and exercise without risk of it running away/onto a road, etc. (more common in countries like the US than in the UK where our gardens are usually fenced in) By the look of love in that dogs eyes, he gets lots of cuddles and love back!

When it comes to the main reasons Americans decide to get a furry house friend in the first place, having company, providing a nice home, and hoping they would improve their mental health were some of the top ones. Plus, more than a third mentioned they got a pet because their partner or family member simply wanted one.
While we appreciate the joy animals bring into our lives, we catch ourselves wondering: how did we get the pets we have? Although pets have adjusted to us, our behaviors, and our emotions, it was not always like that.

To find out how the domestication of animals works, we reached out to Lee Dugatkin, Ph.D., an evolutionary biologist and a historian of science at the University of Louisville. "Ever wonder how our ancestors turned wild animals into the pets that play such an important part in our everyday life? An experiment in Russia, now in its 62nd year, is helping us understand," he told Bored Panda.
"In the late 1950s, Dmitry Belyaev, a brilliant Russian geneticist, came up with an idea for how to replay the evolutionary process that led to the domestication of dogs from wolves, but sped up and using foxes instead of wolves," he explained. The experiment that began in 1960 took place in Novosibirsk, the largest city in Siberia.
Dugatkin noted that this groundbreaking project continues to this day "under the watchful guidance of Belyaev’s student, Lyudmila Trut," who recently celebrated her 88th birthday. "Each year, she and her team test hundreds of foxes, selecting only the tamest —the most prosocial toward humans—to parent the next generation."

PLEASE PLEASE support donkey rescues! Because of absolutely ridiculous, outdated and erroneous stereotypes and "jokes" about donkeys/mules ... rescues attempting to assist and save these amazing animals are often "laughed at " when seeking financial support. As hard as it is to secure funding for any animal rescue, its SO much harder to fundraise for donkeys! As people here and the photo have noted, these animals are very affectionate, loyal and smart. Still -people imagine that they are "lazy or stubborn" or unworthy of our care -- they are even ABUSED in the name of these awful and wrong stereotypes. So PLEASE HELP if you can. One very large US donkey/mule rescue is called Peaceful Valley Donkey Rescue with satellite locations in VA and a few other states. There are others..... just PLEASE HELP! Overcoming these hurdles on top of Covid and supply chain issues .... these animals are really suffering and in desperate need of help! NO amount is too small! THANKS!

This Veterinarian Has A Comfort-Dog Assistant That Helps Sick Patients Know That Everything Will Be Alright
Mad Dragon 3 years ago
"It's gonna be ok. Vet has done this hundreds of times. You will be with your human shortly."
Queef Master 3 years ago
I've actually seen several dog behavioralists use this technique to correct behavior.
Dugatkin and Trut tell the whole story of this experiment in their book How to Tame a Fox (and Build a Dog): Visionary Scientists and a Siberian Tale of Jump-Started Evolution, which is full of science, political intrigue, and tales of love. "In a nutshell, what the Russian team has done is create domesticated foxes that will lick your ears and melt your hearts with their devotion and love," he explained.
It's hard to imagine that somewhere in the beautiful yet harsh Siberia, you would be able to find furry foxes that are as friendly as our beloved canines. "Incredibly, even though Lyudmila and her colleagues select the parents of each generation strictly on how behaviorally tame foxes are, their domesticated foxes look eerily like dogs," Dugatkin added. "Within a decade (ten fox generations), some of the foxes had floppy ears and curly tails."

My Foster Dog Had Never Been Indoors Before. This Is Her First Nap, On A Bed, In A Home
Sundae was taken from a dog hoarding situation — one man had 16 dogs (and a deceased dog’s body) in his backyard. The dogs had access only to a junk-filled backyard and a garage for shelter. We’ve had her for about a week and you would never know that she’s never been an indoor dog before. She’s totally potty trained, incredibly gentle and she’s very polite indoors. She loves to sleep as close as possible to me in bed — I think she’s just making up for 8ish years of zero affection.

"By the end of the second decade, they had mottled fur patterns and dog-like faces and bodies. And these foxes are as good as dogs at following human gaze," the evolutionary biologist said. What makes this experiment particularly fascinating is that domestication of certain animal species took thousands of years, and this experiment managed to have surprising results in just a few decades.

I had a cat who guarded a bird that had knocked itself out on a window. I went out and sat with him and the bird. The cat was clearly worried and needed to be reassured. When the bird recovered enough to be lifted onto a branch, he was SO relieved.
Dugatkin continued: "If all of that were not enough to make us humans fall head-over-heels for these remarkable creatures, they also laugh. Indeed, a number of the vocalizations the domesticated foxes make are more similar to human laughs than the sounds produced by any other species," he told Bored Panda.
He concluded by saying that all of these incredible changes toward a pet-like animal "occurred in mere sixty-plus years. Who knows what changes lay in store as the experiment steams into its seventh decade?"

An Autistic Boy, Who Can't Be Touched, Connects With A Service Dog, As His Mom Bursts Into Tears Of Hope And Joy
I'm not sure why, but people still ask us why we place service dogs with children sometimes. Let me help you understand, from a momma who knows first hand:
See this moment? I've never experienced a moment like this.
This picture was taken near the end of the day after my autistic five-year-old was finally able to sit down with his new Service Dog Tornado. He flew across the entire ocean, stopped in multiple states, and uprooted his entire routine to travel the globe for this. He was so overwhelmed through the day that he had to leave to take a break for a couple hours before he could come back. This boy is the strongest child I have ever met; he has faced countless rude and ignorant adults and children who do not understand him, who have hurt him, and who have not valued him because he is different. This picture captures the face of a mother who saw her child, who she can't hug, wash, dress, snuggle and touch freely lay on his new Service dog of his own free will, with a purposeful unspoken attachment. This is the face of a mom who has seen her son experience countless failed social interactions on the playground in an attempt to have a friend. Any friend. Any kind of connection. She has sat with her son while he has cried at night for months because he has no consistent connections outside of the family no matter how hard he tries and no matter what he works hard on in his Autism therapies. It doesn't transfer to the natural occurring world for him. And now she is sitting behind her son silently watching this moment, with the air sucked from her lungs, and no words to say.
Holding her mouth and silently crying because she doesn't want to distract him from the moment and break him away from a pure, honest, and truly fulfilling moment for her son of his own free will. This is truly magic. Words cannot explain it.
I have cried so many times for this boy, but this is the very first time I have cried for a reason like this.
It's new, it's painful, it's wonderful, and it's grateful. I will always stand behind this boy (probably still crying ) but I am grateful that he will have Tornado to stand beside him. The 4 Paws magic is real. The wait is long, but this moment right here makes it worth every moment of waiting. It's worth every fight for services for my son, every diagnosis, every new provider, every dollar spent, every paper filled out, every school meeting, every shed tear, every step forward, every step back, and every wonder of the unknown future. Somehow because of this- because of Tornado- I know everything will be okay.

WELL BEHAVED DOGS ONLY PLEASE. Had this at a former job. Unfortunately some dogs just shouldn't be taken to work. One big german shepard mix would just quiver and cower under the owners desk, stressed as hell. The Co-owner (wife of husb/wife couple) brought their spastic Australian Sheppard in, the dog was running all over nervously... It's name was Trapper, soon nicknamed "Crapper" (as in all over the hallway). Another VP brought in her 5 King Charles Spaniels, they were the best behaved bunch, staying in her office and chillin. One of them would sneak to my office down the hall and timidly stick her head around the door until I invited her in... my little buddy.

They’ve Known Each Other For 4 Days
Casey 3 years ago
Meanwhile, my cats have lived together for years and the still don't like each other.
aroace man, but german 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 3 years ago
eh, most cats get like that, mine play with each other when high (cat nip) but considering how when we lost snickers (don't worry we found him a day later!) she was crying the entire time, i'd say they love each other.

Isn't that supposed to mean "I love you "? If so, this one's a lover, not a biter.

My older cats taught the kitten we rescued (abandoned at 5-6 weeks old and weighing barely one pound!) everything she needs to know about how to “cat”.

Hasn't Left My Side Since Her Failed Pregnancy. Full Term But No Babies, Everywhere I Go She's Right There Next To Me
Stephanie Did It 3 years ago
My dog had a false pregnancy, and when no pups were born she fixated on a little blue squeaky toy and tried to nurse it. When it squeaked she thought it was crying for food and she would bring it to me pleading for help. I asked the vet how long this would last and he said, until the "puppy" is weaned. I finally had to hide it and comfort her as she grieved. Broke my heart.

This is lovely but it hurts. A few months ago I had to temporarily leave my dog with my sister for work (military). She shared that he waited for me all night to come home. A few months later he died quite suddenly. I'm not able to grieve properly because I'm so far away. I'm better than I was but I miss him so much.

I enjoy the AITA posts (usually with me saying "you mean you don't know you *are* the A? how can you be so stupid?") but I agree this was a wonderful BP post. One of few I repost to FB.
