Puns about pets. Cats, dogs, goldfish, younger siblings...whatever doesn't rub you the wrong way. I figured this thread would make us all sit up and take notice. And maybe Elizabeth will stop begging.
Iguana go away now. I hope this thread has been vetted by our well-groomed hosts.
Sit.
Stay.
Post.

Oh, look! An o-fish-al pun thread! Pawsome! Posted by advice for robots (Member # 2544) on :
The punners should turn out in spayeds for this one, Bob.

Oh, and Iams sorry Purina bad mood. Cat Chow cheer up? Alpo you a drink if that will help. You’re so much more fun when you’re feeling Friskies.

Know why the rabbit deejay had such small hands?

You know, I was play ball and my man's best friend hit a pop fly that got stuck on the woof. Doesn't he feel sheepish...
Posted by punwit (Member # 6388) on :
Oh this isn't ferret all. I'm gonna need more time to consider what's available rather than parroting the normsl stuff.

I always order extra when I go to a nice restaurant because I love bringing home a doggy bag for later.

I'm not trying collie favor, but I expect in this thread's spaniel see many fuzzy puns!

If you barbecued a donkey, would you be a kookaburra?

You know, it's really tough to procure animals from shelters nowadays. The next door neighbor went to rescue a cat the other day and had to wait forever just to pay for all the boarding and adoption expenses. Apparently she was in the feline for over 2 hours.

I hate in when the snow melts, because I'm sure to step in a poodle, and then I'm forced to hound my friends for a pair of clean, dry wool socks.
Posted by rivka (Member # 4859) on :
With all the petty humor in this thread, everyone better be careful not to step in a poodle.

I understand that there are some rodents that are palatable. I've even had some pork stir fry that was delicious. I'm just not sure I could convince myself that ham-stir fry would be worth it.

Wow punwit, my gag reflex was so strong when I read that, I thought I was coughing up a hairball. Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :
I think you paid gerbil with that one, punwit!

I hope to see Terry - er - Mr. Bradshaw at the Superbowl on Sunday.

How many people can post in a pun thread? i'm sure at least two can.
Posted by punwit (Member # 6388) on :
I think I'll leave the cock a till later.

I hear that President Bush has authorized pets for the revitalized space program. When we return to the moon, finally, I expect they'll have a lunar rover along.

Spot on, Bob!

Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Yeah, I was. And to top it off, I had some really bad fish at at a restaurant. Ew. I sure hope there is Beta fish tomorrow.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Retract that clause from this thread immediately, Dagonee!
Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :
Fashion is so weird. I heard someone is breeding a new fish that will be used to provide strapless support for ladies. Ze bra fish is all the rage in Germany.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Well, I know someone who is into taxidermy who already has a stuffed Ze-bra fish.

Did you here about the Renaissance painter who used a very strange medium to make his rep: tiles.
He was called El Gecko.
Posted by punwit (Member # 6388) on :
I've got a friend that is quite literary. He disdains pets but absolutely loves original poetry books. If he is with a group that is discussing their pets and feels a bit left out he starts talking about several of his prize possesions. I'll bet I've heard him rave about his Pair o' Keats at least a dozen times.

I know someone thought he appreciated poetry because he kept his dogs up on a hill. I told him that's not what collie ridge means.

I was trying to come up with something for parakeet for 10 minutes and didn't think of Keats. Where's the thump yourself on the head smilie?
Posted by punwit (Member # 6388) on :
I think this would work.
Edit to say that would work for the ten minutes but I think you meant an Ahaa smilie.

There were 9 friars whose cells were lettered A-I. They only had one meditation sphere which they shared. But they always kept the ball from Monk E in the middle.

I've always wanted to try that! Mice to know I'm not alone. Too bad my apartment leash doesn't allow cats.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Darn. I left two apples out on the counter too long. The pair rots as as I speak.

My favorite character on Star Trek was that space elf on voyager. She had a great singing voice. I really liked to hear Kess trill.

Did you hear about the latest breakthrough in genetics? Mix equine genes with a canine pup and that Dagonee.
(OK, that was a long shot.)

Wow, this thread is so fur gone with puns, it's ruff trying not to foal over laughing.

I've got an Asian friend (Ho Ming) that loves to cook pork in the Hawaiian pit style. I can't tell you how many times I've heard the phrase, "Ho Ming, pigs done"

My cat is very aggressive, and is always batting our other cat with her paws, like a boxer. I get very annoyed by this, but my husband just says, "Aw, just litter box."

Elizabeth, your problem is you have a mouse for a ref, and he's afraid to bell the cats and end the round.

Am I the only person who's ever wanted to put a little gerbil in those plastic balls and then let a cat play with it?
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
If you do that, ger-bil at the vet will be too big.
Is a retired army horse doctor a vet-vet?
Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :
Well, it would farrier to call him that, don't you think?
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Where did distemper of yours come from, Dag?
Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :
It developed when insects started shooting lasers at me. Those ray bees really annoyed me.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Well, that's just parvo the course, I guess.
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
I don't mean to be anal, but when I glands at the post about the gerbil and the cat, I don't see a pun. (My sister had a hamster that the cat used to chase, btw.)
Posted by MidnightBlue (Member # 6146) on :
If you retriever that post and take it to the black lab, you'll find that it was a quote from the non-pun adide from the earlier on the page, just without the quote symbols.
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
I was ruff-erring to the original post.
Posted by MidnightBlue (Member # 6146) on :
Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle! I thought you were referring to Morbo's post.
quote: *non-punnish aside: Am I the only person who's ever wanted to put a little gerbil in those plastic balls and then let a cat play with it?*
The fact that it says non-punnish aside means that it isn't meant to be a pun.
Posted by punwit (Member # 6388) on :
Apparently she doesn't like asides, it must be a pet-peeve of hers.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
Well, I am not sure how ferret is to criticize Morbo for this.
Posted by Dagonee (Member # 5818) on :
We kennel criticize however we want.

In fact, when someone messes up we have a duty to coll 'er on it.

My brother is so into soccer, every darn thing in his house has something to do with the game. He has a fish tank shaped like a soccer net, so the fish appear to be captured inside it. He really loves his goaled fish.
