We moved after living in the same house for six years. Throughout all that time my wife would regularly misplace her blush brushes and have to buy new ones.

When we took out the couch we found *all* of them underneath it, just out of reach of our cats' paws.

Sounds like an ad for Pet insurance in California. Seems like one company has the market dominated and this piece of "news" was made to get the consumer to think "Wow, I need that" and guess who pops up on the first search??

Haha! My family use to have the same problem, but with quarters. My cat Panda use to pick them up when she was a kitten in her mouth and bury them in the litter box, in clothes, under the rug, you name it. Sometimes when I would be looking for change, I would offer her a quarter and then just follow her to wherever she hid them

Nonsense. Lulu is a bulldog. Bulldogs will eat absolutely anything, including cowpies, horse apples & tar off the road. It's not a "developmental disorder", it's just the breed.

DistendedPendulusFrenulum: I once saw a dog pass an entire leather belt

My dog has passed tube socks, bottle caps, and on one particularly festive occasion, a roll of curling ribbon for wrapping gifts with. It was all sparkly and blue. Ew.

He's also eaten numerous crayons, candles, and tissues galore (used, of course). The oddest thing would have to be the toilet cleaner tablets (looked like a smurf painted the lawn after that escapade), and the worst would have been the feminine hygiene products (which almost killed him). That last one was the only thing he's needed surgery on. Most things we don't know are missing until we see them on the lawn.

The dog's name? Darwin.

no, lulu's just a dog.

i worked with developmentally disabled adults, some of whom had pica. one man would eat cigarette butts unless he was watched constantly. sometimes i would be walking him from the van to the house and he'd grab leaves off the trees and eat them.

Nice stories!

Please, everyone, keep the humourous 'my pet eats random things' stories coming.
Make this a memorable thread.
This is why I like Fark.

We had a Golden Retriever named Lacey who would NOT retrieve anything including a thrown ball. She would however take great delight in sneaking into the dirty laundry at night and stealing socks or underwear. I think she only intended to lick them but would end up swallowing them. It's amazing she never choked to death. How she ever passed them without a blockage, I'll never know but we'd find them twisted and disgusting in the backyard.

/Lived to be 13. RIP ol'girl.

yes, i am involved in every possible zombie extravaganza that minneapolis has to offer. okay, right now it's just the zombie pub crawl and the zombie christmas ball, but that's still TWO extra chances beyond halloween where looking ugly is good!

i worked at a pet store that ahd a lot of exotic pets that were "store pets" and wandered around.

bosley was an african spur-thigh tortoise. he was about eighty pounds. besides humping all sorts of inanimate and non-tortoise animate things [his penis was the strangest looking thing i've ever seen] and then ejaculating massive amounts all over the store, he would eat anything that looked remotely like food.
one day he was strolling around the store and i noticed a green plastic leaf trailing from his butt. i got the reptile guy to come over, and i held bosley up while he pulled what we assumed was a small piece of plastic fern out of his poop-hole.
what we got was THREE FEET of plastic fern. three farking feet.

really his sexing everything is a way better story, but it just doesn't fit here. wait for it...

I don't think he ate them, but I had a roommate whose cat had a rubber fetish. The roommate would lose her elastic hair bands all the time, and we'd find them in all sorts of weird places. If he got a hold of rubber cleaning gloves, he'd chew it up and growl at you if you came close.

Her other cat had a fetish for white socks. She'd go digging through the laundry hamper to find one, and then carry it around the house with this really weird meow. Like it was her baby or something.

If you were sad or upset, she would go get a sock, and bring it to you.

So you're saying you didn't clean under the couch for six years? That was the first thing that came to mind.

My boston terrier "Lana" will eat just about anything...
Including, Lint, Bugs, Buttons, Underwear, Crayons(yay speckled poo), her food, the cats food, flowers, once a piece of string about two feet long hanging from her butt, also she loves veggies too..weird.
My favorite was when I came home and she ate an entire bag of Dum-Dums, there were pieces of candy and sticks stuck all over her! Wish I had a pic of that one.
I call her Swiffer, mostly cause I don't have to...she cleans the floor to my liking

I used to work at a vet clinic and we had a min pin come in and puked up a condom. We found that cats eat way more weird stuff than dogs do.
We had an english bulldog that shredded her carpet pad "bed", she had strings coming out of both ends, had to do surgery - bulldogs - grrr.
I had a Great Dane that ate an entire pound of butter (PG cravings- lol) and then she puked that up onto a (formerly) carpeted floor. yuk

 
qlenfg 2009-01-18 09:27:22 PM  
Feh. You haven't lived until you've had to retrieve partially-expelled pieces of string, cloth and rope toys from the dog's arse.

My lab loves to chew, and most of the time she spits out the pieces. Sometimes not, as we have speckled poo in the back yard, and on more than one occasion I've had to help out when her scooting failed to dislodge the pieces of string / rope / fabric.

Need to get a photo of some Frisbee-flecked turds to post in the next animal thread.
