NEW ADDITION TO FAMILY

[Desert Arabian]

Everyone, I would like you to welcome our new family member Bosco. Bosco is very shy, timid, and scared. See, I found him on the playground at the elementary school being picked on by bullies, Appalachian Yellow Ridged Razor Backs to be specific- a nasty kind they are, VERY vicious, and should never be owned. Well anyways, my friend and I were playing on the playground and noticed Bosco was getting tormented, so I rushed to the rescue. I picked up Bosco while the Razor Backs nipped at my heels, and I placed him in the woodchips next to the monkey bars. That didn't keep the Razor Back away for long, soon he was getting picked on again. I told myself let nature take care of itself, so I decided to let Bosco be. As my friend and I were swinging on the swings, I couldn't help it, I had to take him home to a loving caring family where he would never be picked on again. So, I grabbed him and ran away, and the Razor Backs never had a chance to react.

I got him home and gave him a bath, I wish I could put videos on here, I took some cute bath videos of Bosco.

The worst thing is, Mom is at work, and she has no clue Bosco exists, she will be mad- she doesn't want another mouth to feed. But, once she sees his cute little face, I don't think she will be able to resist, just like the Sammy ordeal.

I will update you when Mom gets home and meets Bosco.

Anyways, a warm welcome for Bosco. XOXOXO, love you Bosco!

[Soledad]

I'm sure once your mother sees the sweet wag of Bosco's black rubber base and warmth of his flourescent orange body, she'll be in heaven.


P.S. It's addition, not edition. ;)

[babolaypo65]

I dunno. New Edition seems to work in this particular case!? :D ;)

Congrats on your new... family member!

Oh yeah, whoopsy, I always get those two mixed up. :o :(

Here is a picture of Sammy and Bosco laying together. Sam seems to be okay with Bosco, but he gets a little frightened.

And, he got to meet Connan too, they LOVE each other!

:D

[Soledad]

Perhaps Sammy is jealous of their extreme orangeness and feels threatened???:confused: :)

[Desert Arabian]

Soledad, ya know, that could be it! Maybe it is his size, Bosco very large compaired to Connan!?!

Hey, here are some more pictures for everyone!

Bosco trying to bond with Sammy, but Sam's too tired....

Sorry this one is fuzzy.

Connan got jealous, so he wanted to sleep with Sam:

[Soledad]

Conan and Sammy could be brothers, with all those stripes!! ;)

[gini]

Bosco, well, what can I say? He has some potential.

However, Sammy is just beautiful. Keep those pictures of him coming (please).

[wolf_Q]

CONGRATULATIONS!! Bosco sure is handsome!! (and so is the Sammster of course! :D) I'm sure your mom will be thrilled by the new addition!

[PJ's Mom]

:D

Very funny. :D

[anna_66]

Will I never quit being suckered into thinking you all got a new pet;) :p :D
Bosco is magnificant!

Just what I was thinking! Here I am, trying to figure out if it's a chipmunk or something, I mean, she put him in the wood chips next to the monkey bars, so I'm thinking spider? no....ratty? no.... I just couldn't figure out what it was, then I scroll down and see the cone. Ugh! :D :D :D

He looks like a very healthy cone! No scars or signs of abuse in his past. Must be relatively young. I'm glad he's getting along with Connan though, and Sammy is so sweet to be so welcoming to him.

Congratulations! :D

[Dakota's Mommy]

LOL, congrats on the addition!

[lovemyshiba]

Congratulations on your new addition!!!
Bosco is gorgeous--thank God you saved him from those bullies!!!!!!

I have shown my hubby pictures of the cones many times (he really doesn't get it), and finally today he said to me "why don't you have a cone?" I'll have to stay on the lookout for one that needs to be rescued!!!!! I just know Kito will pee on it though!!!!

Sammy is so adorable too--keep those pics coming!!

[slick]

Oh Bosco you've found a loving home now and no one will hurt you ever again. It might take some time for Connan to warm up to you but please be patient. Soon the three of you will be sleeping together and grooming each other. Congrats YLL! More pictures please.

Since when am I depressed all of the time?

Kfamr, probably since you were born? Yes, you're depressed all of the time.

[slleipnir]

Ooh, so you were a depressed baby? Interesting

[I Love Brian, Forever <3]

:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[Kfamr]

Typical.

[Desert Arabian]

Brandi- All I have to say is stop ranting on people on MY thread created about my new "pet".

You have said enough in the other deleted thread, don't bring you nasty comments and additude to this thread.

KEEP MY THREAD ON THE ORIGINAL TOPIC THANKS! I am not deleting this thread because of nasty comments, remarks, and harrasements towards other members. Use the PM function to send people nasty words, not my thread.

Thank you very much. :)


Anyways, I have to snap some more pictures of Sammy and Bosco for everyone who requested it! I'll hopefully have some for you later on tonight!! :D :D

[slleipnir]

Yay :D Looking forward to more pics ;):)

[Kfamr]

Me too!:D

[Desert Arabian]

Grrr, doesn't look like I'll have any pictures for you tonite. I was out shopping all evening and didn't have a chance to take some pictures- I'll shoot for tomorrow after school.

You just stay to annoy us and to pi$$ with us don't you.

[aly]

Depression is NOT something to be made fun of. That is just stepping over the line a bit too much. I am extremely offended by that comment.

There's no need to make a post that only contains rolley eyes. If you don't have anything nice to say, please don't bring down the thread. People were having fun and now probably no one will post while this is going on.

I'm not saying this to be mean or start trouble, but I find it extremely uncalled for.

PS - Laura, sorry for continuing this. I won't say anymore about it.

My momma always told me if Ya can't say sumpin nice, don't say it at all.
But my daddy said
If you see something wrong and you believe in it, then stand up for it.

hmmmmmmm
I didn't say anything nice, but I did stand up for what I believed in................................................ .....

[luckies4me]

Who cares! Stop bickering. If Laura wants to post pics let her, geez. You all don't have to go back and forth. I think the thread is funny. It's all in FUN, lets keep it that way.


The pics of your new pet are very cute indeed. :) However I am more fond of the ratties. :p


And for the record, EVERYONE has problems!

[bisi.cat]

Hi there...just found this thread!!!
What a wonderful new addition Bosco is...but I'm a little bit worried about Connan!
How old is he? Have you ever considered a change of his diet?
To me he looks a little skinny...you can see his ribs already...or is he in for a modell contest on the "cat walk"???

Have fun with your new pet...:D :D :D

[popcornbird]

Is there anyone on the planet that you like? :rolleyes:

Great thread Laura! LOL! Congrats on the new CONE boy! :p

[catland]

Congratulations YLL - I just love the pics:D

I hope someday to be able to rescue my own cone. I know I could give it a loving home.

[RICHARD]

I forgot to post a message about this!!!


Caltrans (the California Transportation department)
recently debuted their new public service announcement.



SLOW FOR THE CONE ZONE

[mugsy]

LOVE the cone!! Congrats on the new addition!!

[2kitties]

Oh, Bosco is just adorable. I'll be he loves head butts and chin scratches! Congratulations on Bosco!

And, also thank you for a wonderful giggle on this Friday afternoon. Although the thread went a little sour, its initial intent is fantastic!

Of course. Can't say much for PT people though. :) :D

Then why do you stay?

Suggestion - when someone is just looking for attention by posting :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: if we all just ignore that person, they will go away instead of carrying this on far further than it needs to be. So let's all ignore the little snippets from attention seekers, and go back to the original thread.....

Exactly -- Then WHY are you here? We don't like you as much as you don't like us. Well, I can speak for myself and a few others when I say that, Not sure aobut EVERYONE on here.

[Amber]

alright everyone! Stop it!! Now!! Im am sick of it all! Someone says something then somebody has to make a mean comment on it and then it becomes a big fight between everyone! If you are going to complain do it in PM. This is PT a place where us *Kind* people talk about our beloved animals. Not a Place to whine and complain. Act your age! you are what? 15,16,17? im guessing?
2 words....GROW UP! geez, Now im sorry for making another disturbence(sp). Back to the wonderful subject of Bosco!!!

Congrats!

[I Love Brian, Forever <3]

:) :) :) :) :) :D :D :D :D :D

Oh and Amber.......... shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[Amber]

This is what Im talking about....Grow up

[Amber]

I will Logan~ Im keeping my mouth shut for this thread:)

[Desert Arabian]

Brandi- I said knock it off. This is my thread, if you don't like it
LEAVE.

And T & P's mom, I like your idea. Let’s ignore her, and not give her what she wants: arguments.

ENOUGH OF BRANDI, MOVING ON TO TOPIC........

Here are some pictures of Bosco looking out the window with Dudley! Dudley wasn’t happy that Bosco barged up on the self, so Dudley left.

Lmao.. Dudley's like "What in the heck are you doing?!"

[I Love Brian, Forever <3]

:) :) :) :D :D :D :D :D :D

[popcornbird]

If you don't like us Miss Brian, then why don't you pack up and leave and find some other place with people you DO like?

Well said T&P's mom. We all need to make a vow to ourselves........that we MUST ignore Brandi on everything annoying she says....from now on. That's the only way to teach some people. So who's joining the ignore club? I'm in. :p

[Amber]

Im in!! *raises hand*

[Kfamr]

I'm in for *we need to bann her* :)



Laura, we need new pictures, Just Two!? :p

I've forwarded Karen all of the rude PM's Brandi has sent me, and i'm sure many others have done the same.

[Amber]

Good! Thankyou!

[Cinder & Smoke]

Exactly WHICH PART of

>* IGNORE HER *<

DON'T you fully understand!? :confused:


CONES!! Talk about CONES or DON'T Talk/Post!!

[Desert Arabian]

More pictures are coming...and I am going to go take more pictures.

[I Love Brian, Forever <3]

Cones are retarded. :) :D

[Kfamr]

As are you. :)


Laura, Cant wait for the new pics. *hurry up*

[I Love Brian, Forever <3]

I guess simple minds are easy to please, huh? :o :o

[Desert Arabian]

Remember people: Ignore trolls and attention seeking peoples with the IQ of dryer lint.

Here are some more pictures of Bosco:

Bosco has made new friends with the rats!
http://members.aol.com/OrliBloom177/conerat.jpg

Chloe loves Bosco, she loves to crawl on him:
http://members.aol.com/OrliBloom177/conerat1.JPG

Here is Bosco learning to use the potty, what a good cone!
http://members.aol.com/OrliBloom177/conepotty.jpg

:D CONES ARE GREAT! :D

[Kfamr]

OMG.. Those are too cute.

LMAO.. That sign on your toilette is adorable.

p.s. Don't make fun of dryer lint like that, Laura! ;) :rolleyes: :cool:

[Maresche]

I love the poster you have taped to the underside of the toilet lid.

"I'm too cute to drown"

**laughing in hysterics**

[Desert Arabian]

Yeah....:o :o that sign was for when Sammy was a little bean. Mom heard a bunch of stories about little kittens falling into open toilets and drowning, so that's why we made that sign. Just to be safe....

It could come down, but we haven't gotten around to it. :p

And of course, I just gotta love that sign on the toilet. Talk about cute!:D

[lovemyshiba]

Bosco can use the toilet???
Wonderful--I have heard that house-breaking a cone is hard.

I just love the sign too!!!
:D :D

[iceyshiver21]

LOL!! WHAT A COMPLETLY CUTE CONEY!!!!!!!! His orange is just so ORANGE!! :D :D lol

ooo!!!

If you dont mind laura....I have a cone story!!

I was walking behind the school and as I looked in the window I saw a cone! I couldn't figure out why he was in there...then I relized Coneys need school too!! He was just in there getting educated. :D :D Smart lil' Cone :D

[babolaypo65]

What a great story icy. It helps us reconceptualize the dunce cap (which is a cone). Lets reclaim it! Make it the smart cap!

i have see quite a few on the sports fields when i drive by the school.....they seem to like soccer quite a bit!!



On the same subject, but a little more serious....

In the past CalTrans has held news conferences where they try
and educate the public on the laws around construction zones.
They also ask the public to be aware of the crews who work on our freeways!

One year they displayed a field of orange cones-around 150-
Each one represented a Caltrans worker who was killed while
working on the roadways of California in the last 75 years.

It averages out to 2 a year.......2 too many!!!

[iceyshiver21]

WOW! Rich! My mouth just dropped... We learned to be very careful in work zones while I was in Drivers Ed. I'm scared for life after that class...you see so many "accidents".

That's why the cones are your friends!
Don't be afraid, be careful and everything will be OK!:)

[slick]

If you recall I did post something about seeing a cone that my Mom and Dad rescued about 25 yrs ago and it's still in the basement....

well....

my Mom said I could take it home and he can live with me!! I'm so excited......

I need name suggestions......poor cone has never had an identity up until now:( :(

[Soledad]

Wow, a vintage cone. That's so exciting! Perhaps we could name her Tangerine?

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Cones are your friends, but beware of barrels!!! I hate those orange barrels. They seem to go on for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles and..... They are especially awful late at night after a long, long drive and heavy rain for the last 400 miles. Might sound mean, but except for putting a dent in my car, I'd have no problem running over barrels just for the thrill of it!

Oops, sorry, we're talking cones here. ;) :D

Bosco is sooo adorable. I love the pic with him and Dudley in the window, but Bosco is rather large so I can see why Dudley was a little put out. Maybe you need to set up a window shelf just for Bosco? And it looks like the ratties really love Bosco. :D

[green_chameleon_girl]

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! IM IN LOVE! Bosco is completly ADORABLE!:D I Went to the store to buy a cone..but they were really small and ....they were on the ugly side (im so bad for saying that) Also they were snobby cones so I dident bother! My mom knows I want a cone! She wants to buy me one!(I can always count on my mom:)) But they are re-paving my road and there are gonna be cones!!!!!!!!!! YAY! Dont worry I wont steal! Only if they leave them (as usual)


YAY FOR CONES!:D:D

Even the concept of a "dunce cap" is so un-politically correct as to be unthinkable these days. Sigh.

[slleipnir]

Awwww, such cute pics! I love the toilet one ;);) Very cute!! I almost adopted a cone once. There were 5-6 large ones blocking off the road right by my house. My dad told me to go take one cause he heard me talking about it ;) But I didn't want the worked to come after me :x

-offtopic-
I did that with cement once actually, went to see if I could carve my name into it, but the works started yelling and running after me and my friend LOL :x Didn't see him there..
-/off topic-

[green_chameleon_girl]

It could be a good thing you dident take the cone..Its stealing;) But its also TEMPTING!!!!(sp?)
I saw like 40 billion cones on a truck when I went to the store with my mom she had to like hold me down!:D

[green_chameleon_girl]

How many pet talkers actually have cones..? Im curious:)

[babolaypo65]

It's true it is UNPC. They use one on one of the game shows though... The one where the contestants vote which person being interviewed will get a question wrong...

I owned a very lovely Chick-Fil-A cone by the name of Kovu. He passed away this year. One certain puppy decided he was best used for chewing. :(

There are quite a few proud Cone owners. We recently rescued one from the garbage of all places!!

Bosco is gorgeous!!! How lucky you are to have 2 wonderful Cones!!!

[apcrs5122]

Wonderful pictures!!!! And congratulations on the new addition! I want a cone also, but I think my mom would think I am a bit strange;)

I don't know about traffic cones but you can get those little ones in the sports stored. :)

[Desert Arabian]

Yep, you can buy traffic cones from the store. Tractor Supply Company sells all different sizes, I have their catlogue and they have a bunch of pictures of them in there. I laughed so hard when I saw that.
