What can I say ... beautiful dogs and cats, cat person myself but since I had to take care of this little rascal for almost 2 months ... even after destroying everything she could get her hands on when I was not home, ye gotta love ur pets.

Prince; my first cat was a Calico, they sure have some character, even for a cat lol.

At one time had more than 5 cats running around but unfortunately lost almost all of them due to a cat disease.
Still think about them once in awhile and a smile appears every time.

Great thread.

Everyones pets are awsome..I love animals as well. That pit bull in the picture is actually a rescue dog. She was hit by a car and then abandoned at the vet.
I love those benagal cats of yours!!! Im not a cat person, but for one of those I could probably make an exception. How big do they get? Friendly or a bit on the wild side????

For what it's worth, I'm not a cat person either. But, a few years back I came across an article on exotic pets (I've had some pretty interesting pets to include a Canadian TimberWolf Hybrid). Well Bengals are Asian Leopard Hybrids and their personality is much more like a dog then a cat. Males can get up to about 20lbs and females top out at 12 - 15lbs. They are not built like traditional domestic cats though. Long back legs and shorter front legs, very musculur and they move like a leopard. They always look like they're stalking something, lol. They love water (and are constantly bitching for my wife or I to turn a tub on so they can play in the water). Very entertaining and lovable companions. Wayyy to damn smart though and they have a rediculouse verticle. It's said a bengal has a standing verticle jump of up to 6ft. I don't disagree. Amazing agility. They are expensive but if you're spending time on this site then that probably isn't a huge concern I would think. Average price in US for a bengal is 1K - 2K if you get the kitten fixed with X number of days after buying. If you do not get the kitten fixed the price jumps to 3K each. Mine are fixed, you don't want a male spraying in your house anyway, lol. Please feel free to contact me for more detailed info if needed/wanted.

Tsavo and Rock are buddies, Silva on the other hand despises him, lol. Bulldogs are medical nightmares and expensive to maintain because of this. They also have a short life expectancy (around 8yrs). They are great but we will not get another English when Rock's time comes to an end. Our next will be a French Bulldog, Rock weighs in at 80lbs, a French is only about 30lb's but still has the same cool appearance. I would not recommend an English Bulldog do to their health issues. As far as companionship goes, he's my little 4 legged son.

Is this, as with many breeds due to 'over' breding?
I know that for instance some German Sheppard types have hip issues after some years because they are supposed to have lower hind legs for contests.

Thanks for the info Allen. I have heard/read a lot about all the medical issues involved with owning a Bulldog and that definitely gives me pause. Also, the life expectancy of 8 years is a tough one to swallow. It is so hard to loose a pet and 8-10 years is too soon to have to deal with that if it is avoidable.

I have never seen a French Bulldog in person but they are cool in the pics I've seen. A little more lean and from memory they look a little like a large Pug, I could be wrong. I need to give them another look.

I want a 4 legged son and I've always heard that Bulldogs are so loyal and with a mug like that what's not to love.

I had to look it up after you mentioned it. 1987-1992. Hadn't thought of that show in probably 15+ years.
