The pet thread!

[~Laura and Nick~ 5]

He is chubbers!!! 14 pounds!! He loves to have his tummy rubbed!!!

He's generally a big cat though but he's got at least 3 pounds extra that we are trying very hard to get off of him.

He's my cuddly baby...aww

So sad...I want to take both of them with me but it wouldn't be fair to them...they love my parents house, being able to go outside, it's their home.

Nick and I have plans to get our own kitties but...Sam and Cleo will be my babies forever

All of your pets are cute guys!! I used to love cats, my ex and I lived together and he brought his 2 cats into my place. Well let's just say they DESTROYED most of my furniture, the curtains got shredded, the dining room wood table got scratch marks all over it, the male cat kept pooping on the couch when we were at work, I would come home to a nice stinky pile... So much trouble, I know not all cats are like that his were just mis-behaved. Needless to say, we're not together anymore and now, I prefer dogs!!

OMG, there's Kathryn. Kathryn! Show them the link to your dog in the snow! That has to be my all-time favourite pet video. I laughed and laughed.

Ok - here is the link - hope it still works!

yep, it does! Btw - that isn't our dog - Bailey belonged to someone else and unfortunately succumbed to cancer shortly after this video. He is a sweetie, though.

My sister likes to dress our dogs up...

I love my Tanner & Cohen!!! I'm really gonna miss them when I move!

They are not evil dogs... their eyes light up with the flash from the camera. LOL

My cat died in February, but I attached some photos of her. She was a very unique cat and lived until she was 18

The doggie is my bf's dog that will be mine when I move there. His name is Bubba and he's half ####-zhu half border collie. He's sooo sweet and friendly and a very good dog. Love him.

I would love to get another cat but I've developed allergies to them now and my bf is also allergic.

I also had another cat Bear, but I can't find any photos of her... need to search for some.

I had to leave my 2 babies behind... Dar (short for d'Artagnan) I left with an old roommate.. He liked her better then me anyways whenever she would come downstairs to use the washer/dryer he would go running and jump on the machine and start purring etc...

the other cat, Gem I gave to this bachelor who wanted some compnay...

here are the two of them together... Gem loved Dar but Dar just tolerated Gem ...lol Gem always wanted to be where Dar was...

this is my parents dog, Batman... his original name was Fatman but they didn't like it so they changed it... he has the whole family wrapped around his little paw.. he gets away with so much with my mom... lol

Cassie: Moses is so handsome, what kinda pooch?

Honestly, we don't know, even the vet hasn't a clue. I'm convinced he's part beagle by looking at his face and tail, and he has the beagle kind of howl when the tornado sirens go off! But he's 60 pounds, so he has something big as part of his pedigree, maybe golden retriever. And he's a shorthair that sheds, and has a very regal presence. So your guess is as good as mine!

He's a great dog, he has a wonderful and quirky personality and we just adore him.

Awwwww!!! Such cute kitties and puppies and rats too!!!

I very much want a kittie, but haven't the room. FH has promised me one once we finally move, tho!!

Until then, this is my baby:

Soaking in her water bowl

About to shed

Coiled all around my neck - I sorta look like Medusa in this one!

She's a beautiful king snake named Ravenne. I adore her...FH very much does not. I do sometimes get tired of not having a furry pet to cuddle with, but it's great to see the expressions on people's faces when they find you have a snake!!

I've really enjoyed your pet pictures! We had a beagle, Max, who passed away two years ago, just before I moved down here. He was 13. I've been wanting a dog or cat, however up until just recently, Gene didn't want another one. He still grieves Max's passing, and just thought it was too soon. He did however have an offer of a pup from someone at work, so we are discussing this now...maybe not that one specifically, but a pet just the same.

Freaked out just a little bit there krikit?

We just have the one pet, as most of you probably know, since I post pics regularly - but her name is fluffy and we got her from the shelter in Calgary - like 5 or 6 years ago, she is sweet and a bit noisy (lately - like as I type this!!) but she is a really really good kitty, no scratching stuff or eating stuff she shouldn't or sitting on the furniture (she tries periodically to get up on the furniture - but that's ok, she can try) or whatever else naughty cats get up to

Meet my two rats, Minky (the black one) and Chemo (the hairless one). They're a year and a half old, and they have brought me SO much joy.

I SO love the fact that you named your hairless rat Chemo. That cracks me up.

I have a good girl puppy girl named Maggie. She's a mutt. She's also very smart.

She also says I love you!

Basically, Maggie gets me through the day. Especially after it's been so frustrating getting my husband down here.

[Krikit 1,163]

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. Maggie said "I love you." And Fluffy is SO CUTE! You just want to squish her!
