Does your pet stay in the room while smoking?

[PinkPanther MD]

I'm an addiction specialist so I can humbly diagnose that our pet has become addicted to marijuana smoke. At first when he was a kitten, we never noticed if he was in the room or not. Later on, when he was left outside, he would meow very loudly and scratch the door to be let in. He would just sit there usually on my lap, then he'd pass out with (I swear) a smirk...
He never makes a fuss if the door is closed and if nobody is smoking a J.

Gets the muchies - he even eats watermelon and grapes - then sleeps again. He twitches a lot more than usual in his sleep (some colleagues say he might be dreaming - I think THC changes the neuro-chemicals resulting in tremors) and he pees more.

One noticable thing is that he became very lazy. For about a week after he gets "high" he barely lifts himself off the ground.. And he's gaining weight - weighs about 25% more that his sister which was never subjected to smoke for control purposes. My friend's Golden Setter runs off the moment the joint is lit. Go figure.

This clearly demonstrates that your avreage household cat has a potential to become an addict just like us.

Ten years ago I had turned my wife's jump horse into an alky (she (horse) adored canned beer - later on she got so conditioned to the popping sound that her jumping career ended prematurely.) That was right before she divorced me and sued me for the cost of that animal (no cheap thing) on top of everything else.

Just thought I'd share..

Health & peace to you all.

OK, in scientific studies, animals won't self-administer THC.

John Gettman is a modern day activist. I don't know if he's dead or alive. I guess that would mean that I don't know if he's modern day. But, look him up.

But, I don't know if that's where I got it from.

My cat (I want to believe) loves herb.

Even if my dog doesn't get high, I think it's really funny to think that he does get high and to think what he's thinking if he was high.

[beachguy in thongs]

Of course, he gets high.
My cat will wander aimlessly and I'm pretty sure it's because I just got her high.

I've got a cat that LOVES to get high.When we first got her she would sit on my lap while i was gettin high and now whenever we pull out the bowl she is allllll over us.All she really does is disappear for a couple hours and then comes back for more.........

On the other hand i ve got a dog that hates the stuff.He ll run outta the room when we smoke

I really want a pet to smoke with and stuff.

But my dad hates dogs and cats, my mom's really allergic to both. And by my dad hating dogs, I mean he'd kill one if he could. Yeah, bad childhood experiences.

I gave my cat a 1/4 hit of acid once. It started to get really agitated, so I put it outside. I never saw it again. I feel kinda bad now, but I was young and stupind then.

I just want all of y'all to know that I've smoked around my dog ever since I've had her (11 years). She now has irreversible bronchitisis and has had surgery and is on medicine and still coughs all the time. Her vet thinks I need to put her down in a little while when she is just miserable. I'm crying now writing this. Every time she coughs I just want to hurt myself. If you love your animal don't smoke around it. It's the same as smoking cigarettes around your baby. Sorry to bring anyone down, just telling the truth.

i'll get my dog hihg every now and then, and she loves it. i'll blow her like a hit or two. she wag her tail and then lick the smoke. then when i cut her off, she'll lick my elbow while im hitting it to try to get some.
