Housetrained - Tend to leave their mucky pants n socks on bedroom floor.
General Information you can share about them.
Good at driving mum right round the bend and back again. Currently as I'm typing this, my 16 week old moaning little girl could be added to the deal too. The boys can both use the washing machine and tumble dryer. Both good with animals. Elder one great with babies. Both love Doctor Who. Must be rehomed seperately as they fight! Both can wash up, as long as you dont mind it taking them 2 hours (in between fighting) Neither can make a cup of tea, as they're not to be trusted in the kitchen. Should i get them neutered so that they cannot produce clones of themselves? Maybe that would calm them down and stop them fighting too? :hihi:
can they do hoovering up and emptying the dishwasher?
SpeedDemon 30-09-2008, 19:05 They are learning to hoover, but not up to scratch just yet. They ARE the dishwasher :hihi:
Moonbird 30-09-2008, 19:06 Thank you for using the template but I would have made you a species specific one if you had asked, oh and its a good thing that you said no to neutered or you would be in some trouble me thinks :hihi:
I am sorry I cannot rehome any of these as my house is far to small and I am too old to go through a nervous breakdown :rolleyes:
If you are really desperate perhaps I could take them for a while until they can find a new permanent home, but I would have to crate them.
I can rehome them with my husband and I wil leave the looney bin here. My husband like children but couldn't eat a whole one!!! :)
SpeedDemon 30-09-2008, 19:16 He may be able to manage the short one ;)
Lol we have a 11 year old who tries our patience regularly , we love him dearly really.
puddinburner 30-09-2008, 19:34 LOL.:hihi::hihi: Don't give me idea's! I have 1 female of the same variety, 6 years old and talks to puddles in her spare time....DONT ASK:hihi:
SpeedDemon 30-09-2008, 19:37 [QUOTE=puddinburner;4124717] talks to puddles in her spare time....[QUOTE]
hhhmmmm...methinks her and my 8 year old would get on well. I think he was swapped at birth, for something that was found hatched under a rock :rolleyes:
puddinburner 30-09-2008, 19:45 Lol.....she also has sporadic episodes of jumping around like a demented baboon for no apharent or logical reason:hihi:
SpeedDemon 30-09-2008, 19:48 OMG, maybe they were related in a previous life...or maybe they were actually twins and we have half each? I TOLD you he was swapped - someone somewhere has a beautiful, well behaved, well mannered little boy who doesn't show them up. Well GIVE HIM BACK, HE'S MINE! And take your unruly one back! :hihi:
LostthePLOT 30-09-2008, 19:56 I have one like that aswell, My son's 10 and a complete pain in the AR..., and to add injury, i have a toddler aswell. I have a saying" If i knew then wot i know now and had my time again, i wouldn't have any kids or pets."
lol so are husbands sometimes lol
Don't you know, there's no take-backsies in this world?
Sadly...
puddinburner 30-09-2008, 20:06 Was there sumat dodgey in the water about ten years ago then? A phantom child swapper? or was it something we ate whilst pregnant?:suspect:
Or is it a new hybrid type of.....do you call them children?, must be something to do with the breed in general:hihi:
We should inform KC to get the new specifications of the breed?
SpeedDemon 30-09-2008, 20:27 I have one like that aswell, My son's 10 and a complete pain in the AR..., and to add injury, i have a toddler aswell. I have a saying" If i knew then wot i know now and had my time again, i wouldn't have any kids or pets."
I have 5 of these scary things they call children! 12, 9, 8, 15 months & 16 weeks! I only didn't add the others to the rehoming thread cos the 12 year old was out at a friends, and the 15 month old was in bed, so neither of them were causing me any trouble "at the time" lol. You's think I'd have learnt after having the "first batch" not to think things would be different 2nd time around. Maybe I should have satisfied my broodiness with a few extra cats instead :hihi:
helenasq 30-09-2008, 20:37 That's a good idea Lisa. Why do you think I have so many pets!:hihi:
SpeedDemon 30-09-2008, 20:38 If only they paid child tax credits for the furries as well as the kids lol
If i get broody now all I do is get a pet lol alot less trouble
SpeedDemon 30-09-2008, 20:41 Well i did think at 1 point I may want another child, but now I'm thinking I might just have another posh cat instead :hihi:
tahititwo 30-09-2008, 20:44 The original post took me ages to read, because i was rolling around the floor.:D:hihi::hihi::hihi: I :suspect: you hit a nerve I know exactly how you feel got 4 here driving me :loopy:
SpeedDemon 30-09-2008, 20:49 hehehe glad it made you smile - sometimes nice to have a bit of light-hearted stuff on here, when you consider some of the "less cheerful / moaning posts" and all the ones with arguments. I was chuckling to myself as I was typing it - while my boys sat next to me watching TV, totally oblivious to the fact I was advertising them :hihi:
ahh but did they think you might really mean it hun ??? I am very good at widing my hubby up
SpeedDemon 30-09-2008, 20:57 They don't know i did it! Hubby looked quite shocked when i told him what I'd done! Might show the boys tomorrow. Well, the 9 year old anyway. The 8 year old would just give me "the blank look" providing he could take his eyes off his book for long enough!
Can I swap them please for a few ferals - mine are spayed, yours would have to be before a transaction could be agreed upon! Oh and microchipped as well just in case they escaped!! x
SpeedDemon 01-10-2008, 08:39 Well you could do magsie but i suspect you would end up worse off. The boys are lovingly refferred to as either "the kray twins" or "the mitchell brothers" or "the dangerous brothers!" Incidentally, Mr SpeedDemon calls the 2 babies "the feral twins" lol
I have large enough hutches to fit 2 boys lol 2 8 ft ones to be precise lol even my hubby can get into it lol
SpeedDemon 01-10-2008, 09:54 oh excellent! I may well take you up on that offer one day, although I suspect you would soon be putting them back up for rehoming :hihi:
I know just how you feel I only have the one 10 yr old girl but by the amount of clothes noise and mess that comes out of her room, I swear she's hiding at least 10 of her friends in there.
And the cheek well if I spoke to my mum like that id get a crack even now lol
Kids of tday and all that ....
They know how to use the washing machine and dryer and you're rehoming them?! :o
That's quite impressive for 9 year old boys! :lol:
yes but they make nosie Lottie lots of it hence being put into hutches in the warm part of my bunny shed would be best ............. I have spiders queuing up to live in them too!
SpeedDemon 01-10-2008, 15:55 They're quite well trained for youngsters i suppose. I'm not having any future daughter in law of mine accusing me of spoiling my boys, and saying they can't do anything around the house. Just need to improve on their vaccuming & dusting skills and teach them to iron now, then I could become a lady of leisure :thumbsup:
Can you teach my hubby? his idea of cleaning is hoovering only!!!
Lisa, Are they any good with F A L S E black thingies? I hate to bring up the subject on another post??!! But they are everywhere. Banned from the country but in every town up and down the land, especially S8 by all accounts. Whoooooaaa. x
SpeedDemon 01-10-2008, 18:48 aaaaagggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh I'm gonna have to move house. Kids all arachnophobic too so they're not even any use to me in spider removal :(
sheff290 01-10-2008, 22:24 hi lisa try living with 2 autistic boys if your pulling your hair out , i will swap you
Rainrescue 01-10-2008, 23:22 Speedy thanks 4 making me laff at the end of the day - thats brill
my neice has a 2 yr old and just got a 4 month old too - both boys.
the 2 yr old is a nightmare - i keep offering he my cage -but she says she will get into trouble - but he is also - too clever and i'm sure he would get out and the screaming and hollering - cos he think's he's superman - would mean we couldn't go throuh with it either
me - i've got a 13 yr old daughter - SOOOO much easier than boys - (thank god) i'm sure the time spent with the muzzle on and a sharp choke collar had nothing to do with her being well behaved now
never mind - they will leave home (eventually)
i'm sure the time spent with the muzzle on and a sharp choke collar had nothing to do with her being well behaved nowIs My Chemical Romance still one of her favourite bands too? ;)
Rainrescue 01-10-2008, 23:36 Anything to do with music is favourite - but i'm afraid i've lost it with who they all are
signs of the times so they say
BTW 15 year olds can live in the equivelent to a pig sty hutches are too neat for the , so I am told lol by a 15 soon to 16 year old
SpeedDemon 02-10-2008, 15:22 Definitely, my 12 year old's bedroom is FAR more disgusting than my rabbit hutches ever were!
well the 15 year old i look after , her room looks like a sqwat, its disgusting , she never hangs her clothes up!!!! leaves glasses and plates up there for weeks. if they were burgled the police wouldn't notice with that room lol
SpeedDemon 04-10-2008, 21:37 hi lisa try living with 2 autistic boys if your pulling your hair out , i will swap you
nnooooooooooo, the idea was to rehome them, not swap them! Although may swap for a nice maine coon or a ragdoll :hihi:
I'd swap hubbuy for a lovely french lop anyday but you didn't hear that from me really as he just brought me a lovely birthday present lol:)
SpeedDemon 05-10-2008, 08:05 oooo never thought of that, i could swap hubby, the boys AND a large GSD, all for a nice cat or a well behaved, less hairy dog!
*Peaches* 05-10-2008, 08:11 Swap you the GSD for my two skinny dogs? (cresties)
SpeedDemon 05-10-2008, 08:14 you'd have to take the hubby too I'm afraid - him and the GSD are joined at the hip :rolleyes:
*Peaches* 05-10-2008, 08:15 can he do house work?
SpeedDemon 05-10-2008, 08:17 He can, but it's rare he does now he's back at work. And the GSD causes a vast amount MORE housework!
*Peaches* 05-10-2008, 08:25 hmm, maybe not then :hihi:
Mine can do housework and chooses not to too!!! spends time in the garden planting the 500 bulbs i have brought lol
*Peaches* 05-10-2008, 16:27 when he's done can you send him here to sort my garden out? lol
