I like it! Better than all the beige, cream and olive colour schemes of the hotels I seem to stay in. What fun!
Cleaner, more white graffiti. You're funny Littlemisssunshine.

Excuse me? Letting your pet go outside = not caring for it? What planet do you people live on? Do you send your kids to school in plastic bubbles so the germs and parasites can't get them either? How stupid do you think your animals are? And how self-centred are you to think that a longer life equals a better one. Do you ever see a cat hanging round the moment it feels threatened? Why the paranoia? Jees, neuter it, vacinate it, collar it (with a bell), put in a cat door and let it have some independence. That is a happy cat.

You're all nuts. Seriously. Leashing cats? Training them to avoid cars and dogs? Wtf?!! In the UK people don't tend to get cats when they live in apartments. It's cruel. Keeping cats inside, even when you live in a house in the suburbs. Also cruel. Just because they live a bit longer? What kind of life is that for an inquisitive animal? We've always just kept them in the house for the first 6 weeks, then put in a cat door and let them come and go as they please. And anyone who de-claws a cat to make it more people friendly should be locked up. This is the most ridiculous post I have ever read in my life.

When I was younger and my grandfather was very old, he couldnt eat very quickly due to Parkinsons and varying other age related ills. So when my grandparents came over for dinner (usually a Sunday roast) he'd be served his food first to give him a head start. Despite this he'd still only be barely half way through his dinner by the time the rest of the table had finished and he would usually just give up because he felt awkward at being the only one still eating. I always felt quite bad about this so I did two things. I ate my food equally slowly and started eating my peas one at a time, stabbing them with a fork. If I still finished before he'd had a chance to enjoy his meal I'd have a second helping of peas. Eaten one by one.
Anyway, my Grandpa died years ago and I still do this. My whole family thinks I'm nuts with a seriously weird pea addiction.

Also, I thought it was crack dens that bought down surrounding property prices, not the personal tastes of people who may or may not buy other houses on the same street.
How patronising!

I would mount it through a wall. Like tail in one room and the head poking through above a bath or toilet(above head and falling-over-and-stabbing-height of course)
I also like the paint it idea, although I'd wallpaper it and put in on a wall with the same wallpaper. Kind of like the Banksy elephant in the room thing.

I love how this topic pretty much reveals how everyone in the world is a complete snob!
Personally I'd never wear anything on me feet if I could get away with it. And keep a foot bath by the front door.
I was lucky enough to live like that on a tiny tropical island for a two years and it was heaven!
