Hmmm, 8.33am and Socks is lying in her bed, well wrapped and warm but no interest in food or going outside for her morning pee.

Probably the worming tablet she got yesterday. She won’t get any food today tho I might give her some cooked pumpkin (bought, not cooking that vile veg here!) to ease her tummy tonight. The lining of the intestines gets hit by the worming tablet.

Drove to this town that has this huge park where Socks can run. Conditions were fine, mostly sunny, 14°C, but a nasty cold wind was blowing so instead of walking the open field I took the track along the creek for about a kilometre. Suddenly! Bang! A hare comes charging along beside the path, 30Kg of charging staghound in VERY hot pursuit, by god, she was pounding!

The hare was not pulling away from Socks, no way! But a tree + shrubs etc was close by and the burrow must have been in there else Socks would have had lagomorph for an early dinner.

By christ that dog was running and deadly serious! Just—Wow!

Socks is (mostly) staghound and staghounds were bred to be poachers’ dogs.

LOLOLOLOL You should read the crap the junky and the moron are saying about Socks’ little adventure yesterday Grin

The junky hoped Socks would be destroyed. Guess reality finally percolated into what is left of his mind that he cannot steal (“rescue” Grin

) my lovely sweet and beautiful dog. The jealousy must be fierce!

A 30Kg dog does not belong in a tiny tenth story squalid Housing Commission flat. Doubt he has enough money to feed her or the energy to walk the dog 2–5 Kms daily.

The hate, the jealous rage continues.

A total lack of logic by the junky and the moron turned the description of Socks chasing a hare—very natural dog behavior as anyone with a brain (so that leaves out Booby) not damaged by drugs (so that leaves out Larry) would understand.

So those two clowns turn a description of a chase of a hare by a hound and soon enough the wish for Socks to be killed by order of a magistrate appears. Fu

cking

sick.

Of course, I stir the pot:

“I would be delighted

IF

Socks

WERE

to kill 10 bloody cats EVERY DAY!”
and predictably the moron and the junky miss the qualifiers and go headlong down the slope to nowhere.

Clearly Larry is wildly jealous that I have the gorgeous, sleek, sweet Socks and he has. . .a drug dealer and Booby has. . .no brain. That has turned very dark with wishes that Socks be destroyed etc. Stay off the drugs, kids, or you may end up like Larry if you don’t end up dead from the drugs.

The number of people that love cats far outweigh those that don't. The last person I knew who was fiercely anti-cat was my housemate. But, he was all talk.

I was witness to someone who deliberately mounted the footpath with his car to kill a neighbour's cat. That cat ran back to its owner's house to succumb to its injuries. Mum had to go explain what happened.

My last dog (before I moved out) had made it his duty to chase off neighbourhood cats that were not our family's cats. But, even then, he did not try to kill any of the cats. Mum and Dad's current dogs have a reputation for being very territorial. But, they are not about to go kill off neighbourhood cats.

I have to agree with Bobby, here. It seems rather crazy to like the idea of a pet dog killing cats.

I would LOVE to have the feral cat population reduced. That is ALL I am saying there really, if you read my statement there a bit carefully. 10 cats—feral cats—a day? Wouldn’t scratch the surface!

Here is as good a place as any—and Socks did live there for a few short months.

My former neighbor back in Adelaide texted me a photo of where Mum’s house was—all bulldozed and removed.

I was a bit worried about squatters (had seen them in a house just a couple of streets away) so had the lawn mown the day before settlement took place and took a photo of the neat lawn. No worries about squatters anymore! (Unless they bring tents but no blowback on me anymore so they can go their hardest for all I care.)
