listen i’m not advocating for exotic animals as pets, but i really just feel like cheetahs are probably different

i feel like we need to give them another shot as housebeasts

this is a critter who wants greenies and then to take a nap on the couch next to me, and i KNOW it

cheetah in House perfec t size for put inside! inside very Soft and Comfort cheetah sleep soundly put cheetah in House. Put Cheetah In House. no problems ever in cheetah in ho use because good Happy and Satisfy for human where sleep. House yes a place for a cheetah put cheetah in house can trust cheetah for giveing good love to humans in house. friend cheetah

I mean, as someone who as worked in a zoo, this is fairly true.

Obvious disclaimer that you shouldn’t have wild animals as pets.

But like, cheetahs are the only large cats that keepers will do free contact with. Hell, even most small cats don’t get free contact. (Because small cats can be VICIOUS. They’ll have a baby pallas cat wearing thicker gloves than when handling an owl. Because small cats can just be vicious.)

Like I think the only other cat at our zoo where I’ve seen free contact with was servals? Because I know they’ve used servals in shows to demonstrate their natural jumping ability. But I know servals can sometimes have a mean temper as well. Meanwhile they’ll do the cheetah run and afterwards put the mic by the cheetahs and it’s just like an engine with them purring. It’s fascinating to watch when the message in every other large animal is “no free contact because it’s dangerous even when they’re born in captivity”.

Legit if any wild animal could be adapted to a pet it would be cheetahs lmao. Only problem is they can be skittish and very anxious and that’s why they’re often raised around dogs in zoos to gain confidence.

Here are the 2024 vaccine recommendation schedules. They’ve already been wiped from the cdc site. Save them and share widely, especially to your friends with kids.

when you see terfs rallying around your comfort character/fave animal/god you literally worship

like no fuck you they do not agree with your bullshit transphobia

A very large chunk of intersex women and girls aren’t allowed to be pro athletes in track or running anymore and I wish more people were talking about it or hell, even just knew about it. I wish there was more of an outcry. I wish people cared more about defending intersex people in sport because why does it seemingly only fall on intersex athletes themselves to fight this shit at great cost to their privacy and safety.

I hope World Athletics rots in hell.

Might fuck around and paper my town with these. Feel free to join me.

Would you be willing to post the files for these so we can have the best quality copy for printing purposes?

Here’s a folder with the files! I couldn’t get the last one to PDF correctly with the image, so it’s still text.

I hate doodle owners so much. Personally, if I wanted a mystery mutt that could grow up to be any size, I’d go down to the pound instead of paying a backyard breeder several thousand dollars for that.

Hey so everyone is responding to this post with so much hate for doodle breeds and I genuinely don’t know why, can someone please explain

There is literally no advantage to crossbreeding a golden retriever with a standard poodle and doodles are notoriously temperamentally unpredictable and hard to groom. Doodle owners also tend to pay exorbitant prices for their mutts from bad breeders, contributing to overcrowding in shelters and greater genetic issues in these $2k often inbred monstrosities. Doodles are not a standard dog breed, no oversight, little genetic monitoring from breeders.

I’m a huge proponent of ‘adopt or shop responsibly’ if you have purchased a doodle, you have not shopped responsibly OR adopted a dog in need. You have contributed to a terrible industry. I don’t hate doodles individually and wish them ill but there is this culture of entitlement and ignorance of animal husbandry continuously perpetuated by their (usually) suburban WASP-y owners.

Groomers hate doodles. Vets generally do not like doodles and do not agree with breeding them. Most people who work with dogs would never recommend one. If you’re going to buy a dog, purchase a golden retriever or a standard poodle from a reputable breeder who does genetic testing. If you want a dog, any dog that could be anything, I’d recommend going to the pound and getting a fantastic supermutt.

(Pictures of my gorgeous childhood chow chow-bird dog-chihuahua-whoknowswhat mix from the pound. Very quiet, no problems, over 13 years old and only now starting to slow down. Perfect dog. We did think she was a Newfoundland mix when we got her as a puppy but she maxed out at 30 pounds. $25 adoption fee. Worth every penny.)

We need to abolish child stars or at least not allow them to be on social media because teenagers do not need to be having their dubious political opinions & questioning their sexualities in front of millions of people. Nobody is happy about this and I don’t need to know

Child stars lately are just like “teenager from a netflix show that went steeply downhill after the first season weighs in on international conflict” or “pop star who’s barely old enough to drink changes her mind about if she’s a lesbian or not; is she the devil?” & honestly I don’t think anyone in the world is benefiting from any of this

They should be on a fully anonymous account and not doing interviews or anything until they’re like. 25. Like the brain development thing has been debunked and all but jesus christ

Teenagers practice Having Opinions like when toddlers start running and immediately smacking their heads full force into coffee tables & this is a necessary part of maturing but it does not need to be done extremely publicly under the scrutiny of think pieces and video essays n shit. Like yeah the child was wrong about something. Fork spotted in kitchen

legit tho,like i said some dumb stuff as a teenager,i wasn’t Politically Perfect in high school (what a shock),i used the r slur a lot in high school because i was a dumb fucking teenager,and i regret it,kids and teenagers are just that,kids,like people expect the 12 year old from a show to be a perfect person and if they say or do something stupid oops let’s cancel them,like nevermind that we’ve seen waht happens to child stars struggling to then become adults,young kids shouldn’t have social media period,teenagers are different but they shouldn’t have public facing accounts at that age still

EDIT: excuse me these were supposed to be tags lmao, so ignore this post being like a fucking run on sentence
