    I know plenty of straight men with cats who actually care a lot for their pussy. Most won't tell the whole office though.
    Not homophobic. It's just gay men when they have pets tend to have cats, a bit like mad old lonely spinsters.

    I bet you have a cat.

      My mrs has decided she wants to foster cats for a charity. Reluctantly I agreed.

      So two cats show up. 3 days later there are 4 additional kittens. Great. So now we've got 9 cats (3 of our own) at home.

      Of course, kids love it so big bad dad cant get rid of them just yet.

      Hoping they go soon (but it'll be 8 weeks for kittens)

            Good point. One of the couples I rent a house to, have two pugs.

              I don't - though a couple have tried to move in.

                A friend of ours is a nurse and manages the ward. One of her staff took 2 weeks off because her cat died.
                Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                I preferred version 1!

                  I'm getting a bit worried now about a male friend of mine. Though he has a girlfriend, they both have a cat, and both love pug dogs. I always wondered whether he might be a closet woofter.
                  Edit: are we allowed to say "woofter"?

                    No and you are fecking thick - the animals are child substitutes.

                      Thats ok if its unpaid or taken as paid leave.

                      But small companies suffer from that tulip.

                      Having said that small companies can be more choosey over staff.
