  • 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

The cat awaits for the tasty blue jay to come over to the window. Look how he stalks it so concentrated so quiet.

El gato espera el jay azul sabrosa venir a la ventana. Mira cómo él los tallos así concentró tan tranquilo

La gata: << Mis dueños quieren que me acueste muy cerca (o al lado) de la ventana para dejar entrar el aire ....¡no tengo ni idea porque no pueden comprar un burlete, como todo el mundo! ¡Si crees que mi trabajo es muy difícil, deberías observar el perro de la familia...el pobrecito! ¡Definitivamente, ha tocado bailar con la más fea ...tiene que sentarse en el hogar para dejar entrar las bocanadas(o el aire)! ¡Bueno, en mi vista, muchos mascotes como nosostros merecemos mejores dueños, y si la situación no mejorá para al fin de esta semana, me voy para vivir con los vecinos que viven justo enfrente! >> wink

The cat: "My owners expect (want) me to lie down right next to the window to keep the draught outs...I have no idea why they just can't buy a proper draught excluder, like everybody else! If you think my job's tough, you should see the family dog....the poor thing! He has definitely drawn the short straw...he has to sit in the fireplace to keep the cold out! Well, I say that many of us pets, deserve better owners..and if things* don't improve by the end of this week, I'm off (going off/leaving) to live with the neighbours across the road!" wink

ie: If the situation* doesn't improve..etc...

Corrijan mi español, si es necesario, por favor smile

Después de desungularme, ya no me permiten ir afuera porque sería demasiado peligroso, y lo único que puedo hacer es acostarme en la el alféizar y soñar con el destino que les espera en la próxima vida.

After declawing me, they no longer allow me to go outside because it would be too dangerous, and all I can do is lay down on the window sill and dream about the fate that awaits them in the next life.

Dogboy, is for sale = está EN venta I hope this helps :) - FELIZ77, Dec 16, 2015
¿Cuánto cuesta ese gatito en la ventana..el que tiene los bigotes..espero que ese gatito esté a la venta.. :) - Pablo064, Dec 17, 2015
Pablo, I'm sure that I have often seen signs in windows in Spain that say: En venta = for sale but it seems that you either say en venta o a la venta :)say - FELIZ77, Dec 17, 2015

Good one, Daniela :) Nobody except Jesus of course! ;) - FELIZ77, Dec 16, 2015
Well He is eternal. A cat is somewhat less. :) - Daniela2041, Dec 17, 2015
Of course, I voted for you, but I disagree... I think the person who stands holding the door ajar, waiting for snowball to decide whether or not to go in or out, that person is more patient. ; - jrschenk, Dec 17, 2015
Jajaja, I have had many cats. They do seem patient, but I am not sure it is really true. :) - sanlee, Dec 17, 2015
Well, true or not, It makes a good sentence for POD. :) - Daniela2041, Dec 17, 2015
Roger that. ;) - jrschenk, Dec 17, 2015
I love it, Daniela. It is definitely a fact that He is patient with all of us :) - Dogboy1000, Dec 17, 2015

All my friends say it is too hot to sit in the window. I just open the window and let the breeze cool me as the sun warms me. How stupid are my friends?

Todos mis amigos dicen que hace demasiado calor para sentar in la ventana. Solo abrio la ventana y permito el viento leve me enfrio mientras el sol me hace calientito. ¿Qué tonto son mis amigos?
