OK, I know this may seem like a silly question, but I have a bet going with a friend of mine.
If a pet (like a dog or a cat) has an owner that is a member of the Royal Family, is the pet also considered royalty? (As in "The Royal Pussycat")
I say no, that I am sure the pet is TREATED like royalty but is still just a pet and has no title.
My idiot friend tells me I am wrong, that the animal is considered to be royalty with a title and everything.
Can I tell my friend, the idiot fat-head that he IS an idiot fat head, or am I wrong?

Your friend is an idiot fathead. You win!
The queen has several corgi dogs. They are never refered to as 'royal' pets or anything like that.

If the Queen married/adopted a corgi then they would become Royal, otherwise they are just pets owned by Royalty |

No animals belonging to the Royal Family ( in this day & age) have titles.
They might be called mutt or moggy or nag (for the horses). Off hand only one of the minor Royals has cats. Their tastes are rather different than yours, Jeffweico
Nothing else.
However, there are staff who look after the dogs. The Queen Mother had one known as Page & Steward of the Back Stairs.
His duty was to remove dog droppings, amongst other duties |

Well, only dogs may legally testify in the US, they believe there is a conspiracy amongst cats to defend the witches, especially the back cats... |

Just a correction on the video.
Welsh generally like the Scottish and the Irish
Irish generally like the Welsh and Scottish
Scottish generally like the Welsh and Irish
Scottish, Welsh and Irish generally do not like the English
That is why and of the first three nations love the see England beaten in any sport (mainly Rugby for me)

Anyone eg. scottish or whatever can carry hating england anyway, the english are oblivious to it and couldnt care less anyway.....I went to scotland once, in the shops they were all nice and smiley until they heard my accent....I thought get over yourselves, nobody cares.......

Hate the Ingerlish which is OK really.
Irish are OK. Most came to Liverpool in any case.
Welsh should stay with the sheep.
Scots are good in a fight or war & to have someone guard your back. |
