Fuck you fuck you fuck you, I just put down my Golden Retriever last week. He was still a giant puppy at age 9 (looked similar to OP's pic).
One of the worst experiences of my life tbqh senpai.
Not if you have a parrot.
I'll just get a new one. Seriously who cares? They're all the same anyway.

animals just want to eat + fuck thet dont have the capacity to love u etc. dogs + cats soemtimes come home after they run away cause they where the food is. ur dog doesnt love u, ur cat doesnt love u, and ur projecting the absence of real human affection onto a animal which is rly gay

I wish my fucking pet turtle would just drop dead. Cleaning the aquarium every two weeks is such a fucking chore and that nigger has an annoying routine to bang its head on the walls early in the morning disrupting my sleep. Nobody fucking wants to take him in. Its been with me for 12 years and I just cant bring myself to kill it
>>24081312
Dogs and humans have an evolutionary symbiotic relationship bro. Dog certainly can love.
>>24081555
this is why i was mean to my cat and now i'm sitting here feeling like shit
it's a fucking turtle, man, it doesn't know what it's doing. imagine if someone pulled the roof off your house right now and flipped shit because you did normal human being things like occasionally poop, and need to regularly clean your dishes.
be nice to your turtle so i can feel less bad about not being nice to my cat. they're just dumb fucking animals. they're just hungry and stupid and tired. when you're swearing at him for being such a little fuckface while you feed him or whatever, his little turtle brain is just having childlike wonder and joy at the prospect of eating some food.
>>24081555
just put it outside
>>24080933
I take it you dont have a dog or they dont live long when you are the owner??
>>24081606

if you put him outside he'll be dead within the hour

that not love, thats attachment due to necessity. the dog doesnt like u, he likes that u give him food etc.
>>24081685
didnt the guy say he wanted to kill it tho
>>24081696
Humans don't also love their parents. It's just attachment due to necessity. You don't like your parents, you like that they give you food etc.
>>24081696
I have never fed my parents dog and when I visit them every couple of months the dog literally just wants to cuddle me the whole time
suck it, edgy autist
>>24081601
I understands what you say but I got really tired taking care of it. And its its a fucking turtle so its here to stay for many years more. I just gotta keep looking for a new owner I guess
>>24081555

You've been bested at your own game, tripfaggot. There's nothing you can do to reverse what I've just done. You wanted attention so you donned a tripcode. Now you literally cease to exist for me. I'll never see another one of your posts ever again. You can respond to my post but it will be utterly, utterly futile. I won't be able to read it. Chances are others have filtered you based on your vain attempts to draw attention to yourself in this thread, but did not announce it. In addition to this, others will follow my example and filter you based on this post. You have no recourse here, no plan, no fallback. If you had just posted anonymously you could have gotten the attention you so desperately need by making actual thought-provoking, intelligent posts. Now your world will just get smaller and smaller until your posts aren't visible by anyone.
You are defeated, tripfaggot. Completely and thoroughly vanquished.
>>24081722
no thats different. humans more cognizant than a dog + capable of complex thought. all dogs thdink is "eat food, fuck, eat food, fuck". u could put a dog with an1 and he would be loyal to him if he get food. human consider more than that, like if the person a rapist, gay, w;/e

Stop responding to him. He's done this every time he posts for like 4 years. Just filter and move on. Some people are retarded and desire attention on anonymous Korean fingerpainting collectives.

>>24081264
They are incapable of love.
Your cat will never love you back, never. If you feed it there will be that association with you, but as soon as the cat realises it can get food elsewhere then it will leave.
Cats are cunts, but I love them

I think about it like this.
Either there is an afterlife and we'll meet up again some day to carry on our love.
Or there isn't an afterlife, so they won't suffer anything, all they'll think about is how much love they've had, then nothing. A beautiful existence full of fun and reciprocated love.

how is it completely one way? dogs are very friendly for the most part and you dont need to have conversations with something for there to be companionship. having a dog is a hell of a lot better than being alone. no one here is trying to say that companionship with a dog is anything like companionship with a human or better than it.

Because they're aren't? Because they're too stupid to realize they're going to die? Because they're retarded animals that have been conditioned? None of these things are love, stop anthromorphizing your stupid dogs moron.

>>24085389

I have a gerbil. I've had him for nearly four years. I expect he'll live for at least 2 more. I know he's going to die eventually so that thought doesn't make me sad. He used to have a brother who died about a year ago due to a heart attack so it's not like I've never experienced gerbil loss before.

don't know where you live, but in my country almost all pets are neutered, and there are no stray dogs, and only a few cats, in the streets
I do hate foxes though, and some dickheads leave food out for them, can't understand why, they are wild animals, but I agree that you could sort of make that argument about cats too

Found him at the humane society. His previous owners had him since he was a kitten and then just dropped him off at the shelter.
He was very fat and sickly looking. Fur thinning all over, slow and unresponsive. The ladies at the shelter told me he'd probably be there for another few years until he'd die. I figured I could give him a happy last few years.
So far he's lost weight, his fur has filled back out, with a much healthier texture, and he's pretty active and playful.

I've already explained multiple reasons why.

nope, guard dogs have easy and cheap replacements. Unlike hunting or seeing eye dogs.

so you are a moron?

So you're just some brain damaged idiot who can't parse information and wants to have his precious doggy.
>>24081755
Then why do you think someone else's dog can love someone who is not their owner? For example, when I was growing up, my grandparents dog would never leave my side. I wasn't the one feeding it, I was the one playing with it and just being its friend.
PS: You're retarded.

well, I would still posit that getting a kitten would have been the more sensible choice, but at least you get that kick of seratonin from being compassionate and helping it. Why not get a kitten too? Can you afford it? It might enjoy a new pal too

not sure that you have, was it just the so called environmental impact? Are you a commie/leftie?
I'm sure I have certain retarded stances, perhaps you can help me correct them through good reasoning and polite argument
Are you a global warming alarmist?
Personally I would rather keep dogs and let the non-Europeans die off, but that's just me, each to their own
>nope, guard dogs have easy and cheap replacements
like what? alarms with sirens? Do you really think that is as effective as a barking and biting dog?

I'm going to get a kitten soon, actually. Once I get a new place.
With my current living situation, there are three cats and a dog in the house (roommates' animals), so adopting a kitten right now wouldn't be a very sensible decision.

I had 4 dogs.
I got the first one when I was about 11, and the others from 12-14. They were my best friends through some pretty extreme isolation during my teen years. They all died back to back in the same year when I was 19.

Valuing a stupid pet dog over your fellow man is disgusting.
My mom has a dog that I never feed, literally all she does is want to play, always just hovering over me with which ever toy just so we can play Tug of War/Fetch/Keep Away (it's all three in 1, need a name) Anyways if a dog plays I'm sure it can love.

>>24093295
Nope, here in Finland it's Rauha.
I feel you man. Right now you gotta cherish what moments you still have. The thing that saddens me most now is that I don't get to see her daily since she's at my parent's. I try to visit as often as I can mainly because of her.

I don't know what to do. She loves being with me but it sucks seeing her struggle with food. Why is this shit happening? My old dog lived to be 13, I thought this happens to old dogs. Shes only four, she was supposed to meet my future kids and family..
>>24093538
You know. I'm a nonbeliever, but I believe in Dog's heaven.
She will be watching your family from up there, bro. She always will. Don't let her suffer now. She'll eat and run and be happy again, only in somewhere we can't see her. But she will be.
>>24093538
Is your dog a purebred? If so, then this shit happens to them all the time, it's an unfortunate side effect of all that inbreeding. I remember my mom had a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and it basically dropped dead of a heart attack overnight; the vet said that every CKCS gets this.
animals suck ass to be Ernesto family

thanks for this man.
>>24093713
shes a mutt. black lab mixed with something else, I got her from a rescue so they weren't sure. the cancer was random. I took her to the vet 3 months ago for a checkup, and she was all fine. I go 2 months ago cause I felt something on her neck, and the vet says its stage 4 lymphoma and spreading to her stomach. fuck fuck fuck fuck. If I had the money i'd do the chemo, fuck it
