..... ah..... Ruskin. Does it still smell like ketchup there? (tomatoes and their harvesters, LoL.)
Diggler Thanks this. -
Not bad right now, give it a month. At least in FL tomatoe plants die by June(the heat), unless of course it's hydroponics, but that's cheating mother nature!
G13Tomcat Thanks this. -
That's because cats can climb up and leave their "deposits" on the top bunk.Marky84 Thanks this.

Cat feces have a parasite that has been linked to Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED). This means you are prone to fly into a rage and may be a contributor to road rage incidents.

I'm a cat person, love cats. But I don't do pets on the road, although having a pet can be soothing. Just too much that can go wrong in a confined space.
Our family had a cat once that could be sunning itself calmly, then for no apparent reason it would fly into a rage, race across the room and claw and bite you, then run back and climb a curtain and hang up there for several minutes. Try having THAT cat in the truck in rush hour. -
A squirt bottle full of water will take care of that.Lepton1 Thanks this.

It would have been worth a try. Might have required a Magnum Sooper Soaker. We didn't name that cat Satan's Spawn for nothing.
He was a keeper because he took it out on the local rodent population. The neighbor's German Shepherd gave him a WIDE berth after getting the worst of it in a fight. He road that dog down the street like a rodeo.rpad139, G13Tomcat, RockinChair and 1 other person Thank this. -
Melton is dogs only and under 50 lbs. They've changed their pet policy a few times now.G13Tomcat Thanks this.

Funny story I have. I walked into the drivers lounge at a truck stop one time; there sitting next to other drivers was a cat watching TV like it wasnt a big deal lol. Cat looked at me with a meow and continued watching TV.
I just shrugged and walked away like it was nothing. Still, Cats are pretty chill animals but unpredictable. They are sometimes annoying too.JForce28, Metallica88, Lepton1 and 1 other person Thank this. -
thats cool.
