Yeah I have to agree, it was kinda mean, but I know some kids that don't comprehend the gravity of bad situations like that, so it could be he doesn't know how serious it is.IceKitsune wrote:I'm sorry but that is really cold on Max's part.

You can say that again.IceKitsune wrote:I hope that's what happened because after that remark Max needs it.RandomGeekNamedBrent wrote:So fox stops being a jerk because he was dognapped, and I say Fox bites max's ear while in shock from being petnapped.
Grape gets it and Max is arguably older then Grape, and while I know Max is kind of an idiot I doubt hes so much of one he doesn't get how bad being petnapped is.Zukio wrote:Yeah I have to agree, it was kinda mean, but I know some kids that don't comprehend the gravity of bad situations like that, so it could be he doesn't know how serious it is.IceKitsune wrote:I'm sorry but that is really cold on Max's part.
Truly fashionable people don't need their fingers and thus can lose them to frostbite in the name of having fingerless gloves, which I'm told the young people are fond of.Sinder wrote:very good reasons, which will occur to rick later

Why exactly should Max care about a dog who up to this point has been very anti-cat and a bully?IceKitsune wrote:I'm sorry but that is really cold on Max's part.
Hes ok with someone being petnapped. I don't care how much of a jerk and a bully you are no one should be petnapped. Edit: IMO there is no justification for that kind of reaction.Seth wrote:Why exactly should Max care about a dog who up to this point has been very anti-cat and a bully?IceKitsune wrote:I'm sorry but that is really cold on Max's part.

Which is why I am founding a foundation that will educate pets in avoiding petnappers.IceKitsune wrote:Hes ok with someone being petnapped. I don't care how much of a jerk and a bully you are no one should be petnapped.
Because he said "He deserved what was coming to him." to me that indicates he knew that he had been petnapped and even if he didn't someone is still missing, normal people would be concerned for them at least a little bit.Seth wrote: How exactly would Max know he was petnapped?
all he said was he didn't come home.
either way it's pretty consistent with Max's character.
Apparently, Max's reply reminds me of situation when HP! fans say the same when Bino does something bad to others and then he gets punished.IceKitsune wrote:I'm sorry but that is really cold on Max's part.
Well except Bino's 'punishments' usually are pretty much directly brought on by himself whereas being petnapped is not exactly retribution for being mean to catsKarlos wrote:Apparently, Max's reply reminds me of situation when HP! fans say the same when Bino does something bad to others and then he gets punished.IceKitsune wrote:I'm sorry but that is really cold on Max's part.

Well truth be told we don't actually know if hes a Stray or not. As Peanut has walked around with his collar off before and Bino only wanted to not be seen so he wouldn't be made fun of, as has Grape. (or at least that is the assumption of the whole thing that made Tarot stop using the Halodeck powers.) Its possible that when they are in BG or at least where people know them to be Pets they don't actually have to wear the Collars.GameCobra wrote:It's awesome to see he did have his ear in good condition back when he was a kitten. Double points for being a stray, which makes him even more awesome in my book. <3
Ok I'll give you that Max might just not care about Animal Control. However if Max was always a stray, which would technically make him a Feral; because a Stray is the equivalent of an abandoned or runaway Pet from what I gather and he would have been born on the streets. (never having had an owner at all from what you are saying) He is rather well taken care of, he doesn't look underfed or dirty or anything. So that also makes me believe he has an owner and just doesn't want to wear the collar.GameCobra wrote:While i can agree that he might not be a stray, i'm convinced he is one for now just from his age, collarlessness and mannerism. As far as Maxwell being at risk of animal control, i'm sure he didn't care. He seemed like the kind of cat back then that enjoyed playing cat and mouse games with authority in my opinion and being a stray would sure enforce that kind of thinking onto him i'm sure of it.
Also, Joel's pets were from housepets to strays where the opposite would have happened to Maxwell, which as sad as it is for Joel's luck, it makes me enjoy the fact that Max was adopted by Jeffas a stray even further if it's the truth. I like Jeff even if he seems rough to both Bino and Max.
Well I don't know if I agree with that, I mean Bino ends up with grievous bodily harm more often than not, I am pretty sure that at this point he's probably spent most of his life relearning how to walk over and over againIceKitsune wrote:And they also tend to be a heck of a lot more mild then being petnapped.Ebly wrote:Well except Bino's 'punishments' usually are pretty much directly brought on by himself whereas being petnapped is not exactly retribution for being mean to cats

What is with everyone assuming that the size means they're just bigger? Is everyone you know exactly the same age?GameCobra wrote:I <3 And man is he big! Makes me believe either he was strong back then and that Grape was probably treated like a runt alot in comparison.

Max specifically said that "He deserved what was coming to him." That implies to me that he knows something happened to Fox (the Petnapping in this case) if he had thought Fox had just run off he most likely would have said something along the lines of that hes gone or took off or ran away. And he also implies that Fox had gotten his "comeuppance" for being a bully and a punk which Max wouldn't. When you get you comeuppance, something has happened to you, you haven't run away.Karlos wrote:
What is mean is that because Bino is mostly doing something mean to others, many people who read HP! comic always wish him harm because to them, he was a jerk. Mostly what I read was: broken legs, wheelchair, long comma in hospital, inoperative limbs and such.
Here is something similar. Max calls him a bully and a punk. That means Fox had to give to other pets a hard time (mostly cants) if he says such thing and he must really hate him.
But there's one thing. You're saying all the time that Fox was petnapped. But try to look on this from Max's point of view. As Seth said earlier, Max said only that Fox didn't arrive home last night. So that doesn't mean that he knows what exactly happened to Fox. Of course, we readers assume that he was petnapped, but the characters may thing something else. Perhaps like: he got offended at his dad so much that he run away or something like that.
I knew he was older thanks for confirming. Now the question is how much older is he? I'm going with no more then a half a year to a year. So 2 1/2-3ishrickgriffin wrote:

I didn't mean to make it sound like that, Rick. My interpertation of their size was definitely size and age related. Sorry >_<rickgriffin wrote:What is with everyone assuming that the size means they're just bigger? Is everyone you know exactly the same age?
Well all my friends used to be the same age until I started meeting people online and at furmeets, so it's an understandable (though incorrect) assumption to make.rickgriffin wrote:What is with everyone assuming that the size means they're just bigger?

To me the cast in terms of oldest to youngest goes like thisGameCobra wrote:
EDIT: If it helps, i always thought Sabrina was the oldest, next to MAxwell followed by Grape.
The first because remember Res gave the note to Maxwell knowing that it would get to Grape so I'm sure he knows they are dating. Also Bino would have had no hand in getting Fox kidnapped he's a jerk not a monster.JohnWillow wrote:I'll bet Bino had a hand in this, because fox wouldn't beat grape up.
Fox as a kid kind of looks like a wolf cub, perhaps someone mistook him for one.
And isn't that interesting, Peanut wouldn't say the rest of that sentence.....either he doesn't like to think about Max climbing through the window at any given time of day or Res doesn't know that he's Grape's boyfriend
That's true, although part of that is the separation of age groups in grade schools, which, of course, doesn't apply to the pets.Sleet wrote:Well all my friends used to be the same age until I started meeting people online and at furmeets, so it's an understandable (though incorrect) assumption to make.rickgriffin wrote:What is with everyone assuming that the size means they're just bigger?
