Hello Everybody! Welcome to the Picture of the Day!

  • Post your comments/titles/captions to this picture (both in Spanish and English) and vote for the responses you like. The best answer will be chosen soon on the basis of the greatest number of votes as well as the language accuracy.

  • Pon tu comentario/ título/ pie de foto a esta imagen (ambos en español y inglés) y vota por las respuestas que te gusten. La mejor respuesta será seleccionada mañana, tanto por la cantidad de votos como por la corrección en el uso del idioma.

  • Please, give everyone a chance and only post more or less one caption and no photos.

  • Por favor, deja que todos tengan una oportunidad y pon más o menos una respuesta, sin fotos. .

Please encourage everyone with a vote. smile

Los esclavos deberían llevarnos, no arrastrarnos así. Tendremos que castigarlos más tarde.

The slaves should carry us, not drag us like this. We will have to punish them later.

El video es una buena explicación porqué la gente no pasea a los gatos.

The video is a good explanation of why people do not walk cats.

Esto da un nuevo sentido a caminar en el sueño.

This gives a new meaning to walking in sleep.

If I may, "caminar en sueños" or "caminar sonámbulo" ;) - Waidh, Nov 24, 2015

"Camina con sus gatos," dijeron ellos. "Será divertido," dijeron ellos.

"Walk your cats," they said. "It'll be fun," they said.

Uhm ¡Qué gustito! ¡Tenía un picor tan grande en mi costado!

Oh, what a pleasure, my side was itching so much!

Quizás sería mejor "itching" en vez de "stinging"- los dos funcionan pero no quieran decir exactamente lo mismo, y creo que "itching" sería más común aquí. :) - bosquederoble, Nov 9, 2015

Me parece que los dueños los toman por perros y los manejan como tales.

I think that the owners take them for dogs and handle them accordingly.

When I lived in Denmark we had 4 cats. One was a siamese and he came for a walk around the village with us in the evening. After a while the other 3 did the same - leads were not needed.

Cuando vivi en Dinamarca teníamos 4 gatos. Uno era un siamés y él vino a dar un paseo por el pueblo con nosotros en la tarde. Después de un rato (el otro) los otros 3 hicieron lo mismo.

Yes, mine come out with me and the dogs, for at least half a mile, it is quite funny, but I worry and turn round, the cats get tired! - annierats, Nov 10, 2015

En muchas maneras, el juguete es más fácil de cuidar que la real.

In many ways, the toy is easier to care for than the real one.

La clave del buen cuidado de un animal es entender la naturaleza del animal y adaptarte a esa naturaleza y no tratar de forzar al animal a ser algo que no es.

The key to good care of an animal is the understand the nature of the animal and adapt yourself to that nature and not try to force the animal to be something that it is not.

Que los gatos se comporten como perros es algo muy raro. En español hay una expresión para indicar que algo es muy raro , y es " mas raro que un gato verde". Me temo que como el paseo dure mucho van a terminar siendo dos gatos verdes por culpa de la hierba.

Cats behaving like dogs is something very rare. There is an expression to indicate that something is very rare in Spanish, and is more " rare than a green cat". I'm afraid that if the walk is long it will end with two green cats because of the grass.

Rarer. :) - bosquederoble, Nov 9, 2015
Ahora sé lo que significa un gato verde. - chantaneeyip, Nov 9, 2015
"rarer" es el último error? Lo pregunto para esperar y corregirlo cuando estén todos. ;) - 000a35ff, Nov 10, 2015

astotxua, I think ' rarer' is fine, you can be rarer than rare, it's themost rare possible, so to speak. - annierats, Nov 10, 2015
There is nothing rarer than a green cat/ more rare. Both correct, I think, anyway. Green cats are unusual. - annierats, Nov 10, 2015
