A practical joke involving animals is not funny.

Pillocks!

What a horrible thing to do Merlotgran.

I hate it when people crack a 'joke' at the expense of another's pet. We have a little white poodle and last year the man friend of a friend who'd been helping with the washing up said 'if you'd been here earlier I could have stuck a stick up its arse and used it as a dish mop'.

He then went on to ask if 'it was a boy or girl' before remarking 'oh it's a boy'. Yes, I said HE'S a boy, I take it you've just seen how well endowed he is, what's the matter are you jealous.

Some people just don't realise how much are pets can mean to us do they.

whitewave, In my younger and fitter days I'd have been in there like a shot!

Agree ww. Gets me into trouble sometimes (ask my kids what happened when chewed up toffees were chucked at us at the cinema once!). But if they were that sick to do it, they may have been even sicker if she'd flown in there and had it out with them.

My temper would have me rushing into the pub to give them what for.

Didn't think of that. I was pick pocketed very cleverly once, and smart of your DH to think of that first. So back to a sick joke. And sick it was.

Oh God! Yes! That does make sense. Thank goodness everything is alright.

When I told DH he said, 'Have you checked your handbag????'

I knew all was well because I'd gone back in to pay for the parcel but it never occured to me at the time that it could have been a diversionary tactic so that somebody could nick my purse

It wasn't......thank goodness but I would have been easy pickings.

Agree . Not funny. At all. Supposing you had a weak heart. I'd call them something really bad but I keep moaning about swear words only being used for 'special occasions', or it devalues them, so I shall say 'Nincompoops'!

!!!

What total idiots! Unbelievable.
