Is that a big dog?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 99/100. ElicBxn (24693)   ranked 3 out of 532 in messing with your mind 3 years ago

I went to the vet this morning (Saturday) because Sassy has... well, a problem with her stools - okay?

And I was parking and there was a guy in the lot getting his little dog out of his car and just STARING at me/my car.

I get out, go around and get Sassy and then go inside.

The guy looks at me hauling in the cat carrier as he opens the door for me.

"Do you have a big dog in your car? Does he look like a giraffe?"

"I have a giraffe in my car," I replied.

"I thought it was a dog with his ears cut to make him look like a giraffe," he said.

"Nope, its a giraffe," I said. "Eight dollars at a garage sale."

Now, I've been driving around with it in my back seat because right now I can't find a safe place to put it, but I will...

So, do you have anything in your car that excites comment?

You've a homeless giraffe riding around in your Car? that's Funny! lol My car has only drawn attention from what's inside when I had my folding bike in back and I was either getting it out and unfolding it,or putting it back in again..


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElicBxn (24693)   ranked 3 out of 532 in messing with your mind  3 years ago

he maybe a homeless giraffe, but he's MY homeless giraffe

well that's a paraphrase of what I said about Hobo when the vet wanted to put him to sleep because he was a stray cat with FIV...

BEST cat EVER, I have a pix of him in my photos - say's "Wanted"

My dog Gus has problems with blood in his stool and the doc can't find anything wrong. What turned out wrong with Sassy?

That's cool about your giraffe. Leave it there, entertain little kids riding past! I don't really have anything unusual in my car except a hat pin stuck in my front driver's seat. I found it on the ground and it was pretty so I picked it up and never found a home for it.


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElicBxn (24693)   ranked 3 out of 532 in messing with your mind  3 years ago

Sassy is 18 or so yrs old, has nearly fluid stools and can't find the cat litter to save her life - and she better start!

My roomie's 2nd great nephew wanted to play with him when he saw it, so I said, he could play with it INSIDE the house...

When I had the bottle babies, the Friday before they got relegated to the cat carrier, while I still had them in the laundry basket, the biggest one climbed out. I was holding him while I was stopped at a traffic light before my house and the lady next to me saw him and got all excited.

Gee, those babies are 2 yrs old now, I bet Ari is HUGE!

No, not at this time. I used to have a large Geoffry Giraffe but finally made him into a donation. I have a lot of junk in my car, but nothing remarkable. I would be more surprised at a big dog with ears cut like a giraffe.


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElicBxn (24693)   ranked 3 out of 532 in messing with your mind  3 years ago

yeah, this thing is about 2 feet tall, maybe a tad more... I always wanted one of those Geoffry, but they were a bit too unreal for me, the realer the better... I would be too, sounds like a cruel thing to do - and I KNOW my vets know I wouldn't do anything like that...

hi ElicBxn he he you got a chuckle out of me and reminded me
of a friend of my husband's who wanted to use the lane for cars with more people in them, so he got two people sized women dummies and dressed them up in female clothes. well he
got pulled over and the Chippy was not a bit happy to see
the two dummies were real dummies. so the guy got a ticket
to trying to fool a smart chippy, California high way patrolman.


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElicBxn (24693)   ranked 3 out of 532 in messing with your mind  3 years ago

I've actually seen one person in a car in the HOV lanes in Houston.

They've tried to get HOV lanes here in Austin, but the MORONS in the legislature things that building bypassing toll roads is the way to go - did I mention they were morons?

If he really wanted to fool the CHiP he should've set them up to look like they were putting on make up...


myLot reputation of 99/100. olydove (565)   ranked 389 out of 532 in messing with your mind  3 years ago

ROFL about setting them up to look like they were putting on make up! Now that would have been hilarious lol

myLot reputation of 99/100. ElicBxn (24693)   ranked 3 out of 532 in messing with your mind  3 years ago

Once about 14 yrs ago. I had a purple stuffed Barney, uhm..hanging from a noose in my rear side window. I got tons of looks and comments. Most of them were people honking and giving me the thumbs up sign...oh and they laughed alot. I was angry, back then, ok?.................

It is funny you mentioned your little/big friend in the back seat of your car because I have one too. He is a large dog my daughter won at a raffle. You could go up and pick a prize and she picked this large stuffed dog that has no place in the house so he has been living in the back seat of my car for almost a year. I am quite used to him and I forget that it looks rather strange to other people. I always know if my husband has borrowed my car because the dog will be lying down on the seat out of sight instead of proudly sitting up for all to see!happy

Can't say as I do, seeing as how I don't have a car. I don't even drive. My friend, though, always has all kinds of crap in her van. I talked her out of buying a console table she didn't need nor could afford simply by the fact that she already had a bunch of stuff in the van and wouldn't be able to fit it in there.
lol

that sounds like my van, the roomie had to rearrange things so I could get the trap into the van yesterday morning to take the feral to the vet.

I have nothing on my Backseat of the car not even Gissi as he has to sit in the front because he gets so stressed in the car


myLot reputation of 99/100. ElicBxn (24693)   ranked 3 out of 532 in messing with your mind  3 years ago

its tall, almost to the ceiling standing on the back seat - you can see the head when you can see thru the windows - honestly I'm surprised I haven't had more people ask about the stuffed animal
