@abonnard Pee pads got me through in the end, she would pee every 20 mins for the first months, then 40 mins, then she suddenly went to being able to hold it for many hours. One of the best purchases I got before she arrived was a small carpet washer, saved my sanity. The cleanup is so key otherwise they go back to the same spot.
Hallo!
-
hi Starrlamia - welcome! You'll really enjoy this forum.
-
Welcome to the forum, would love to see some pics of your pets.
-
Thanks guys!
Here are some pics:
Here is Cleo, she is a 1 year old Captive Hatched Normal Ball Python.
Here is Grendel our Olde Boston Bulldogge:
And George my kitty:
When he was younger:

Welcome onboard..I love your pet pictures..thank you so much for sharing.
-
Cleo is gorgeous. A friend of mine had 2 large snakes and I always held them when I visited - such a cool feel and smooth texture.
-
Welcome to the forum. Lovely colour on the ball! Grendel is very cute! My cat would fall of the shelf-she's rather clumsy!
-
Welcome to you and all your animals. I'm sure you'll love having a Basenji to join them.
-
Great pics, thanks for sharing. I love the name Grendel.
-
Welcome. I know you will find lots of information re quality breeders and healthy dogs on this site.
Glad you found us.
I do have to say, some basenjis have a heavy prey drive, so make sure your kitty is safe, until the new family member is settled. -

For sure I will make sure my kitty is safe. Our current dog doesnt try and hurt the cat but he plays too rough for the cat's liking so we keep them seperated 90% of the time just to be sure.

Starrlamia, Basenji's are hunting dogs in Africa, even to this day. I can't stress to you how much damage a basenji who wants to get a cat, can do.
Its not a matter of chasing them down, its wanting to make them dinner.
Sorry, this isn't nice to read, but they can and will hurt cats if they are not raised with them. -

Sorry, this isn't nice to read, but they can and will hurt cats if they are not raised with them.Thanks I am well aware of that, I own a bulldog and have been fully prepared for keeping the cat and dog seperated 100% of the time since we first decided to get him (almost 2 years ago). I was merely stating my experience with having a dog that already neccesitates keeping the 2 seperated.

It's so hard to convey tone through the internet -
My unmet friend, I always assume folks are just asking/telling about "stuff".
I can get conflict at work..so, with doing rescue, I always assume folks have good hearts.
Its all good. What else can I do to help you? You just have to ask..
