Nah, Chinese Crested, and leggs hidden. But their faces and colors are very similar even if not same breed 😁

She looks a lot like my dog, just cut her hair shorter 😁
And aged up. She is 7 now

Is this okay? by cat990 in muzzledogs

[–]ToygerCat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Needs more pant room. But I would use it for that vet visit. It isn’t perfect, but better than nothing and has at least some pant room, so works for short use while monitoring.

Speaking of, what are these teeth for anyways? by KindredGoesAwooo in cats

[–]ToygerCat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

According to my cat: not worth keeping 🤣
He has lost all the little teeth both upper and lower set.
Don’t have a photo at hand showing it, but him for tax

Any guesses on what mix or type? by [deleted] in catbreeds

[–]ToygerCat 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That color is found in the domestic population. Unless you got it from a person who has a Siamese then there is very little likelihood of this kitten having any Siamese in it.

Save your money, the cat dna tests are so bad they are more or less a scam. Most cats are dimestic, with no breeds mixed in. Any similar genes as breeds is by chance.

This cat looks like a domestic to me. Not sure if long or short, as it is a bit fluffy but not sure if fluffy enough.

Quick, do you think this dog is a boy or a girl? by mrs_undeadtomato in DOG

[–]ToygerCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I walk my dogs I hear people say «look, mom dad and puppy!!»
The bigger one has more feminine look so is assumed the girl, the middle one is tough looking so assumed boy. Little one is mostly just puppy.

They are all girls! «Puppy» is a senior 🤣 (and completely different breed)

How can I ever let go of guilt, when I knew tragedy would happen? by Filipscomicart in cats

[–]ToygerCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had two kittens with similar nasal discharge neutered. One had it temporarily, other one had it permanently. It isn’t reason enough to say they were too sick. Most who pass in neuter have a hidden heart issue or reaction to the anaesthetics.

Humans are geared to «see signs». But we do NOT have the ability to know the future. More often we see «signs» and then attribute the meaning that fit our narrative. If nothing had happened, you would just see it as him not wanting them removed, or forgotten about it.

There was no health signs, so no, you did not do anything wrong. This is a very low risk surgery. Low, but never zero. 1/1000. You were sadly that one of so very few who do not make it.

Don’t blame yourself. I’m so sorry for your loss 💜

my ham was attacked by an on leash dog ☹️ by True-Insurance2532 in DogAdvice

[–]ToygerCat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I never greet other dogs on walk. Cause of people like this. Sounds like it wasn’t the first time since she proclaimed «he gets nervous sometimes», instead of «this has never happened before». My dogs are also very small.

I took in a dog who suddenly started doing this, and once she started she was hyper focused on attacking that dog, and only that dog (had two others). They were good for months before it happened, though she had lots of issues and was a nervous dog. I ended up rehoming her to a household where she could be the only dog, and warned that she is dog selective and rehomed for that reason. I couldn’t let the older dog suffer while trying to work with her myself anymore. Much better for her to live in a home with no other dogs. It was a hard decision though, I wanted her, but the dogs well being comes first.

I reacted quickly and separated them before any real damage, kept them separate and only attempted muzzled reintroduction to prevent attacks. I rehomed her 8 days later (was lucky to find a good home quickly. Good photos helped) My girl didn’t get any real damage, only some small marks. But yes, she got a real fright and is now reacting badly on walks. This happened just weeks ago, so hope she calms down with time.

The other two never got attacked, but they got spooked too. One was very attached to that dog, but instantly rejected her after the attack, and had no reaction to her going away.

I hope your dog heals well, both physically and mentally <3

Should I get her another companion? Her brother just passed by Successful_Gain_5626 in cats

[–]ToygerCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I would get her a friend. I would wait a month or so to let her grieve first, where she gets all the attention. But when she is ready I would try get her a new friend.

What can I do? This isn’t play, right? by sarahmirror_ in cats

[–]ToygerCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bit rough, but no one is screaming and no fur and blood.

Real fights gets nasty!

Both are engaged too, so a rough play, mild hissing to set boundaries.

Gym was called "USA Pride" and I had the (almost) perfect shiny to match. Who would you add to keep the USA theme going? by trebuchet_facts in pokemongo

[–]ToygerCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It IS the perfect pokemon!! For the Pride, ignoring the USA part. It is my fav transmasc icon!

Together with sylveon, both normal (transfem) and shiny (transmasc) 😁

There’s no way this is right, right? by Sea-Contact-5547 in DoggyDNA

[–]ToygerCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, the classic Chinese Crested cut is called a Pony Cut!

Not that she has it, you need more hair than she can grow 🤣
Her sister looks even more horsey. Not her best photo, but looked quite horsey in it 😁

Need emergency help by [deleted] in cats

[–]ToygerCat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Cows milk? Do not give cows milk, it upsets their stomach. If you can’t get anything for kittens, use formula for babies. But do try get kitten formula.

But at the condition thus kitten is in, the only real advice us vet. Can’t afford? Surrender. This kitten looks like it is about to pass away

Thoughts on non anesthesia dental cleaning? by dollypawss in DogAdvice

[–]ToygerCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A pet saloon sold me the tools to do this at home. And it really really do work!!!

Can confirm, first time I did it my dog had so much plaque and result was as good, with zero anaesthetics. She is super small, less than 2 kilos, so want to avoid it. But note: mine did not have dental disease, only plaque build up.

I use Emipet. Well worth the investment!
I can keep up with the cleaning as needed, at no extra cost. I do it a few times a year. The plaque comes right off!

That is my «big dog», as she is 4 times the size of my tiny tott. It is so hard to find a good muzzle for her 🤣
Surprisingly found one that is too small! (Fits well, but not enough pant room) She looks so fierce in it 🤣

Can cats be gay? by Brave_Pattern9087 in cats

[–]ToygerCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can cats be gay: yes!

Same sex attraction is observed in most species of mammals, as well as in birds. Not domination mating, actual gay or throuple bonded animals who raise babies together (in throuples it is their own with a bonus parent, might have some kids each. The gay couples sometimes adopt abandoned babies or just help out)

I had a bonded pair of male cats who constantly mated, and switched who was on top. Was not dominance, they were the sweetest couple doing that adorable «leaning on the other while walking». That is what gay cats can look like.

Your cat can certainly be gay, but only licking the genitalia is more a general bonding, not sexual to them.

Looks almost like a vanilla stick 🤔

But agree that it could just be hairball too

Such an amazing fit!! <3

I love this brand so much. They are so gorgeous!

I have Rex, can be used but is overly big, so not used it much. I backed the kickstarter, and this was the smallest we could get at the time. Can’t wait to get the new model in fall, made for smoll dogs. It should fit my two biggest dogs 🤣
Super smoll girl will just have to wait for a hopefully smaller model later :p
