Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / August 2005Advice Please....
Dear All, I need advice. I am well pissed off with next doors Jack-Russell-from-hell. The Fracking thing keeps yapping & barking and disturbing my nap. To add insult to injury, the bastard chased me twice this morning when I was out doing my rounds. I of course smacked it in the head with all my claws out and then chased it, but even so, it's not what you want to do when you're taking your constitutional. Pandora is so worried by it, she hasn't even gone out today and she likes to lie in the sun on the patio. It won't stop barking, so the human has offered to climb over the fence and wack it with the garden spade, but I would prefer something more effective and long term. Like bowel dismemberment. That'd shut the bugger up. All advice appreciated. Most miffed, His Royal Feline Lordship Tiger. > All advice appreciated. > > Most miffed, > > His Royal Feline Lordship Tiger.

Next time lurk up someplace high and then jump down on the ratcreature with all claws at full extension... that ought to teach it to leave you alone! I know Jack russells are adorable dogs, but they're a little PITA to have for a neighbour! The people behind us had two of them - one older dog who was very well behaved, and one puppy that yapped and yelped and carried on all day and all night long, especially when they went away for vacation and left it tied up to its kennel! I always wanted to call the animal protection people and report them but they weren't actually doing anything 'wrong'. It had food and water and shelter, just not love and attention or dog-training :(  Signature~Karen aka Kajikit Crafts, cats, and chocolate - the three essentials of life http://www.kajikitscorner.com > I know Jack russells are adorable dogs, but they're a little PITA to > have for a neighbour! /// Yeah, I had a Jack Russell for 17 years and they are cracking little dogs. However, they are huge personalities in very small bodies and you need to show them who is boss. Having said that, I'm looking for a new d*g addition next year... We've decided on a Parson Russell Terrier (a slightly larger type of JRT) and I dread to think what HRFL will say when the puppy arrives in Feb!

Really? Here the name Parson Russell has superceded the name JRT, so what were JRTs are now (for show and breeding purposes anyway) PRTs. But I don't know any just-plain-dog people who use the PRT name.

The PRT is the pure-bred UK Kennel club accepted true-to-original-type JRT. They stand taller than a typical JRT and have a breed standard. JRT's still exist as working dogs, but they are only allowed to be registered with the JRT fanciers club, not the Kennel club. JRT's have many different varieties, patterns, etc, etc, where as the PRT is a much more "pure" terrier... My JRT was more PRT type (i.e. taller) and stood 14" at the shoulder. I like the larger more "square" terriers. What HRFL will think however, remains to be seen as he refers to the resident d*g Bonnie (a X-breed mutt) and "That stinkin' scum" ;o) Helen M >>Dear All, >> [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > >I know Jack russells are adorable dogs They are the spawn of Satan. ;) Theresa Stinky Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/125591586JWEFwh My Blog: http://www.humanitas.blogspot.com >>> Dear All, >>> [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > They are the spawn of Satan. ;) They're not called Jack Russell terrorists for nothing. ;-) SignatureAdrian (Owned by Snoopy & Bagheera) A house is not a home, without a cat. >>>> Dear All, >>>> [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > They're not called Jack Russell terrorists for nothing. ;-) I'm still reminded of the art show we were working when I went off to use the loo (porta-potties, dammit!). Walking back I encountered a couple who had just bought two Jack Russell pups from one of the exhibitors (no, she wasn't selling pups, just happened to have 2 of her dogs babies there). They were about 10-12 weeks old. They were already getting into mischief. One had found a walnut and was chewing on it; his brother kept jumping on his head. And this couple thought they were soooo cute. Uh huh. Okay, they were adorable. But two at once? Hahahahaha! Jill > They are the spawn of Satan. ;) > > Theresa>.. They're lovely dogs, I love'em. They just misunderstood:) Alison > Dear All, > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > All advice appreciated. Dear Tiger, A friend of mine in the U.S. had a twenty-pound owner named Boswell. He had managed to terrorize all the neighborhood dogs so throughly that they would drag their people to the other side of the street when being walked past his house! Another friend had a large marmelade named Billy who would periodically trounce the yappy little poodle next door. (Dogs having a rather short memory, he had to do it about once a month, but each trouncing kept the noise level down for about that long.) I realize you are a gentlemanly cat, but perhaps you should treat the problem a bit more aggressively? > Dear All, > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > His Royal Feline Lordship Tiger. Bribe him with doggie biscuits and he'll be your best friend-:) Alison Helen Miles @ helen.miles@virgin.net > I need advice. I am well pissed off with next doors > Jack-Russell-from-hell. The Fracking thing keeps yapping & barking and Instruct your human to call the neighbors and tell them they have a "Public Nuisance". If the owners fail to correct things, tell your human to carry a can of pepper spray whenever in the yard, and to spray the obnoxious mutt every time it barks. > Helen Miles @ helen.miles@virgin.net > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > human to carry a can of pepper spray whenever in the yard, and to > spray the obnoxious mutt every time it barks. Possesion of pepper spray is illegal where Helen lives, and I'm sure she wouldn't use on an animal even if she could.
