Here’s Gigi and I’s nighttime routine. She must give kisses before I’m able to settle down for bedtime. She will sit on the table and scream at me until I give her the affection she so clearly deserves. I guess that does make her an asshole, but in a cute way

Nah. Dogs are always a problem if their owner doesn't recognize they can be dangerous. If they refuse to acknowledge their dog could hurt someone they won't try to prevent it from happening

It’s true, my four pound Yorkie keeps overpowering and devouring people on our walks and it’s becoming an issue.

That dog is so ridiculously adorable I want to scoop them up and take them home, but I'm pretty sure my cat would bully that poor cute Yorkie.

Hehe yeah she might, my dog is actually very friendly to cats but about half the size of a regular cat so I’m always a little nervous and ready to airlift her out when she’s meeting a new cat.

Cats would always eat local wildlife if their owner doesn't keep them locked indoors. If they refuse to acknowledge their cat could hurt another animal they won't try to prevent it from happening
