Our New Pet

Post by Lon »

Ever since the tragic death of our beloved pet vulture Clyde, we have looked for a new pet to love and cherish. To the best of my knowledge there are only three of these special animals still alive and we are fortunate to have one of them. We hope to breed our COWAT with one of the other female COWATS and thus preserve this rare breed of animal.

Distantly related to the topic at hand: Ive been made aware that bunny rabbit drowning by Minnesota residents who tend to gardens is an accepted method of ridding themselves of the little critters. Deplorable.

Im wondering how they do it. Do they throw them in a pool until theyre exhausted or do they hold their little heads under water until all the fight has left them?

I don't know how they do it but I would support "Water Boarding" to get the truth from those little buggers.

The thing is, Lon, is it 'house-trained' ? How long do they live for ? How many in the litter ? Can they be trained to guard your property and yourself ? What do they need in the way of food ? Do they come in different colours ? How big do they grow ? I need to know all these things before I feel comfortable in placing an order with you................ :thinking: :-3

It's really best to keep a Cowat outside as it is really not a suitable house pet due to spastic bladder and bowel control. Also, they are not very good guard animals due to a very non aggressive and timid nature. They eat most grasses and are particularly fond of ivy. They come in brown & white as well as black and white and can grow as big as 65 lbs. Their life expectancy is 14.6 years and are singularly born.

Well, they taste like a mixture of alfalfa and oregano.
