Imagine you’re in Tokyo, where it’s overcrowded and overpriced and the stress is overwhelming and they won’t even let you keep a small pet in your minuscule apartment for crying out loud. Continue reading
A baby fur seal walks into a ….
From the land of the long swapped vowel.
This is a seal with ambition and drive, but don’t you hate it when others change the radio station on you? RUDE!
Seal Pup Wanders into New Zealand Home
Baby fur-seal* wriggled through the cat-door. (best use ever of the word ‘wriggled’.)

On Monday, this “Animal Research Beagles” video made the rounds (thanks, Lucky). Continue reading
…by the Real Buster the Cat
There’s been some furry asshole running around here pretending to be me, which is, like way uncool. There can only be one Buster. Believe not in false Busters, ya’ll! The only thing I care about is Pounce treats and belly love and ear scratchings and toys. Continue reading
Here it is everyone, our Crassiversary! I cannot let it pass without paying homage to our beloved CCLC ~ Crazy Cat Lady Contingent. I am grateful for all of your fun and contributions and though I sometimes mock, you know I lurve you CCLC. I am also grateful that I have you all corralled here at Crasstalk where I can keep an eye on you. Have you ever tried herding cats? Well, Crazy Cat Ladies are equally wily.
My gift to all of the CCL’s and the people who love them; A Definitive Shopping & Gift Guide for the discerning (but still way crazy) cat lady. Because, really, how many cat tapestry tote bags do you need? Continue reading
It’s Halloween and for pet-owners, that sometimes means dressing up your little creature like a different little creature. My very first Halloween with Macho, my chihuahua, I took him around the block and told kids that asked where his costume was that he was actually a German Shepard dressed up as a chihuahua.
Last year, I dressed him up as a pumpkin and I don’t think he’s ever forgiven me.
This year he’s rockin’ a wizard hat and cape. He hates it like fire.
But the question, dear Crasstalkers and fellow-pet-antagonizers, is what are your pets going to be for Halloween? And to answer that question, let me introduce the very first Crasstalk Halloween Pet Costume Contest. The prize will be glory and internet fame. Continue reading
Back in July I presented to you a video of motorcycle racing at 1000 frames per second. Well now we have a similarly-shot HD video of an owl swooping in for its prey. Nightmare fuel!
This is my niece, Rosie. She is a St. Bernard. She is wearing a monkey costume.
You see, there is a Halloween costume contest at her day care. Yes, doggy day care. And my sister wants to win this year. I said it seems kind of silly to put all this time and effort into dressing up dogs. You don’t understand, she said. This is doggy day care. This is cutthroat.
Last year, Rosie was a ladybug. And she didn’t win. My sister says one lady cheated last year by promoting her ‘fucking cocker spaniel’ on her personal Facebook page and directing people to the website of the doggy day car to vote for her ‘ugly fucking cocker spaniel’. My sister considers this cheating, because her St. Bernards are way cuter than ‘that fucking piece of shit spoiled cocker spaniel.’ Continue reading
The title says it all. Probably best to skip this one gentlemen. Continue reading
