Why would I ever excuse myself to them?…I say "get out of the way" If they don't get out of way, I just pick them up, give them a kiss and take them out of the way. I love to whisper to my Pets:lolling: Cheers, Uncle Hexy CUB4DK |

I have entire conversations with them as the cats answer back with meows. One has a very distinct "Hello" meow and answers my greeting with it. They can and do develop a vocabulary with you!

They only eat meat and vegetables with occasional homemade peanut butter cookie snacks. They always get the Ham and Beef bones as we cook with whole meats daily. So yes, we always say excuse me, we talk to them and they have developed responses to our questions that we understand ....lol XRP & XLM XRP = eXchange Rate Peg (Wholesale) XLM = eXchange Liquidity Measure (Retail) NESARA / GESARA |

And not just my pets. I pass several homes on my daily walk where the pets are outside at the time - I always ask them how their day is going and tell them they're doing a good job alerting their people to my presence. Their people may think I'm crazy, but the pets like me. More deplorable all the time. |

MountainTux NLI User ID: 68379451 Canada 12/26/2018 02:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Honestly, I believe that most people that care about their pets and recognize them as independent individuals converse with them. I know we sure do, and Newfie dogs are very "vocal" about their communication, as well as very "handsy." I've taught Hank (my big ol' Newf puppy) how to do "whisper and yell." I get him to sit, for his treat, and then ask him to either whisper or yell. Whisper, he makes this quiet whuffling noise. Yell, obviously he barks a loud WOOF! :laugh" it's priceless. Mind you, I also say excuse me to an empty room whenever I outgas... cracks my wife up when she catches me hehe. ad ignorantiam - The assumption of a conclusion or fact based primarily on lack of evidence to the contrary.
