What would your job be in Pettalkville ?

Spencer, I was at Big Sur, CA about 5 years ago...we camped there! Cliffs were high, we had to be careful when climbing down to get to the ocean beach. Then once down there the sand was scattered with Jade stone and hundreds of Elephant seals. Very natural and untouched. I bet Pettalkville would fit right in

Genia you are too much!!

I think I'd like to be the official tummy rub person!

I think my vote would be for Hawaii, been there, done that and I didn't want to leave.
How about Lanai or Molokai, Jaspers Mom is right, Honolulu is too crowded.

This is beginning to sound like a great place. I'm ready to go, with all my girls and one boy in tow! But, Kay Ann, I like the amusement park idea, but you need to remember....some of us love dogs and cats. No cat dunking! I'm sure you were just kidding...you need to meet some of these wonderful cats and you would change your attitude about them, I'm sure. This community will be one that accepts all pets, cats included!!

And the "society page" is a great idea! Lilly and Honey would be glad to sponser the first "social". We would of course open our swimming pool (we can dream) to everyone to swim to their hearts content! And the cats would be welcome too with lots of fish and milk for them.

WOW, this place is really sounding good. I REALLY want to live in a place like that. Yes, and of course, we will have to take in the rest of those in the "outside" world who need to be rescued!! This IS Heaven on Earth!!

I think cat dunking would be fine - we'd just choose Maine Coons, or other "wierd" cats who LOVE water, and try to jump in the shower with their people at any opportunity!

And for cats, there'd be "dog dunking" but the dogs in question would be Chessies, or Labs, and other "water" dogs!

can we change the name from Pettalkville to Petaquawville located in the picturesque Pataquaw Valley? (thats near lake whoabegone for those who listen to public radio) that way it would fit in with the story i started this weekend?! The story should be fit for consumption by the end of this week - at least a draft of volume I.

it was a good weekend for writing.....

I would be the veteranarian. O

I'm jumping in a little late here, but Charlie, Yertle and myself would love to come and live in Pettalkville too. Can I bring my mom and her turtle, Lilly?
I'd like to volunteer my services to the adoption center or the outreach group that Jasper's Mom described.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to live in a world where everyone cares about and loves nature and all living creatures? At least when I'm here at Pet Talk with all of you I feel closer to that world.

With all them loose dogs running around?

**Logan** · 06-18-2001, 01:41 PM

I know one Maine Coon cat that wouldn't be too interested in the "Cat Dunking", MIMI!!! She isn't too fond of that water, unless she has a nice clean bowl to drink from. Maybe "Cat Bathing", elective bathing, would be a better idea!

In Pettalkville, no lawyers are needed because all animals, and people, behave perfectly.

**Daisy's Mom** · 06-18-2001, 06:04 PM

Wow evberyone has such great ideas! And Hawaii sounds GREAT to me and Daisy! She is wagging her tial just thinking about it.

**TheAntiPam** · 06-18-2001, 08:15 PM

We're going to need other jobs for our significant others, so maybe companies that produce items without animal testing would be welcome.

As for lawyers, we're going to need estate planning lawyers, so we can leave our pets with good care in case of accidents or... well, you know.

And we're going to need to deal with the noise issue...Even the nicest doggies can get on your nerves, especially when they live next door. We'll keep working on that one!

We'll need to have foreign language tutors so we can have sister cities in other places in the world! Whew, this is quite a project!
