It's that time of the year again where a mate of mine goes on holidays and leaves his house and numerous animals in my care.
As few may remember, everytime I babysit the house, at least one animal manages to kick the bucket. Last time it was one of the birds.
The victims animals this time around are:
4 Rats
1 Bunny
1 Guinea pig
2 Birds (one is a replacement for the previous casualty)
2 cats
Which one will grow wings (not counting the birds which will go to hell anyway ;D) and go to that big zoo in the sky? Only time will tell.
Or will I buckle (grammar? Bah!) defeat the odds and have everything survive this time (so far that's never happened but it may be a lucky year).
Wish me luck. :)
-
My money is on the guinea pig first, and one of the rats second.
What do we win if we're correct, and how exactly did you "buckle" the odds? I didn't even know the odds came in belt form!
I vote you have to mail the dead animal to the person who guesses wrong, with a printed list of all who guessed wrong. They have to cross their name off the top of the list, and mail it to the next person. A chain letter scam of the worst kind.

Looks like we now have a prize for the winner. :D :D
-
I'm guessing one of the rats......
too bad they don't own a snake that has a tendency of getting loose... then things could get really interesting.........
remember if I'm wrong put me on the top of the list. I'd hate to be the last person to receive the carcase
-
I'm betting that the animals have had enough of your "care" and will kill you in your sleep. ;)

The rats may chew me to death overnight.
Day and everything is still alive. :D
I may however commit cat-murder. I got to work this afternnon and everyone kept asking me why my normally black coat now apears to have a white tint to it. I hate molting season. >:(

I have the overwhelming urge to make a gerbil related comment but I am trying to clean my act up.

HAH - good luck bones

Here's my thinking
Rats will survive anytihng
Rabbits are hearty and live long
Guinea Pigs seem to be sort of Fragile - possibility
You already killed a bird, what are the odds you will do it again?
Cats are long-lived as well.
-
Nah, they only replaced the pig (something actually died while I wasn't there) about 3 months ago so not much chance there.
And Bones, feel free to make gerbil related jokes all you like. We know you can't resist. ;D
-
I still say it's going to be a rat
-
Hm... Need more data. How close are the cats allowed to the bird cages?
-
Not close enough. Damn noisy buggers.
And is it normal for a neighbour's rooster to be doing it's wake up call at 3am?
I'll send the cats over there instead.
-
if you send the cat it may not return.......
-
Hmmmmmm....

My father-in-law has a rooster that crows every ten to fifteen minutes all day and all night.

-
I'll have it shot anyway.

Last time I talked to my father-in-law he implied that his would make a very tasty meal sometime soon.

Your confidence is comical. I hereby am going with the guinea pig ;D
-
My 3 nephews each had a pig, they died one after the other after a few months. Nasty little beasts, sh!tting all over the place (even in their food dish!!!)
Now, I'm afraid to lose, being in Canada, I know I'd end up with the carcase LAST. Wonder how long something like that would actually circulate in the mail system before someone got wind (pun intended) of it? Any known cases out there in Net land?

If it's sent by Australia Post, the carcass would probably come back to life out of frustration.

If nothing dies you could always buy something and kill it.

anything six feet under four paws up yet?

Grrr. All is alive and well. Time to cut the food rations in half.

This is a nice place to house sit. I'm having a smoke outside when two possums decide to start rooting about 3 meters from me.
That reminds me, Seph's mum has an appointment with me tonight. :-X

My friend's too cheap to get cable TV so I have to watch infomercials all night.
And the bad news: All is still alive. 1 day to go.

You're not trying hard enough. Imagine how dissapointed he's going to be when he gets home. The only reason he asks you to house sit is to thin the herd.

I wonder if I can feed a rabbit to a parrot.

There's a scientific reason for that. When I'm trying to shove the bunny into the bird cage, it'll put up a convincing fight and scratch the ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- out of me. Also I can't seem to find any other paink-killers in the house.

I see someone has been playing with the auto filter again.

If thy're not sending out bad t-shirts to 1000th posters, they're messing with the english language.

When he's screaming like a banchee and throwing heavy stuff out of a moving vehicle, THAT is your time to take cover... ;)

Game over. Everything survived.
Feeding the bunny Drano only turned it blue but the little bugger still lives.
Better luck next time. :angel:

Did you wait around to see if he turned into a monster mutant bunny? He might have gone on a rampage and killed everying else after you left.

There were used condoms all over the place and the birds were a bit quieter than usual, otherwise everything's normal.
