As promised, here is the thread to show off your furry loved ones. No, not Uncle Harry, but your cats, dogs, hamsters, ferrets, birds, fish - whatever!
Fell free to post shots of past pets too. Share any stories about them - why they were so special, etc.
I start off with Crash.
My Girls...Sandi and Klick
Victor, you always come up with the greatest ideas!!
I love his green eye's.
I can't post mine, it will take too long! lol Later when I have more time I will.
Awe , love those buttons nose's 3G!
^_^
They sleep with me at night....could be 100F up there and they both have to be under the blankets!! Klick behind my neck and Sandi under my chin.
My 2 that live in the house. Mona is the tortise shell (5 yrs). Salem is the other one. He has blue eyes. He used to be black and white. He is now 13 yrs. It was hot this day as they are normally never this close if they can help it.
This is my other 'pet', DD rides her more right now. Alice lives 10 min. away as I live in town. I'm on the ground.
Thats a beautiful horse!
Cats are nice too!

Great thread...off to work but trust me I'll be back with lots of photos!! LOL
Crash is a beaut~what's the story on the cool name!?
Sandi and Klick are too cute!
Nice looking horse Jump!
Thanks! I, too, will be posting more. Had chores to do all afternoon.
On the first morning after I brought Crash and his brother home, he went flying full-speed right into the sliding door! Name search over.
Two cuties, Le Ann!
Nice cats, Lucy. Long fur! Do they shed a lot? The horse is gorgeous. Beautiful shade.
Here is Spooky, one of the two brother kitties I adopted from the vet last year. He is still a very anxious cat, though he is better. We are using a pheromone diffuser that is supposed to calm them by emitting a scent that reminds them of their nursing mother. (What if they were bottle fed??) I call it the Oedipus scent.
he's adorable!!
Thanks, LA! I was considering calling him Barney, after Barney Fife from Andy Griffith!
And here is his brother, Sniff. If there is food in a 50 mile radius, you know why he got that name! He is very, very friendly and quirky. He is always around me, like Crash.
Crash tolerates the young ones, but has obvious disdain for them!
A favorite shot of Sniff from last fall. He is well-camouflaged by the beech leaves and the football game rounds out the essentials of fall!
This was one of our cats when I was still home with my parents - Tommy. We took him when my grandmother passed away. He was a great cat - very athletic!
Here is a beautiful cat, Casper, we rescued from the street. Can you believe someone just dumped him in a box in December?!! My dad adored him.
Salem has long hair. He also considers anything laying around his to lay on. Shedding isn't too bad. Sometimes I think Mona is worse for shedding. Alice is called a chestnut in horse colors.
Victor your family seemed to run to ginger cats. We had one ginger--named Captain as he came from a shelter in Gloucester.
Y'all have seen Wall-e I think...
This was Haagen Dazs.
Victor I'm not a cat fancier but yours do look nice enough!! My in-laws have two and they always bite me...
Jen your Wall-e is a handsome devil!! What breed is Haagen Dazs? I can't place her/him.
Here is Atticus Finch my 3 year old 175 lb. rescue
Here he is standing up on the 4' gate
This is Harper (scout) Lee my 15 month old
Sabrina my senior at 10&1/2
This is Abby my bulldog that thinks she is a Dane!!
This was my first Dane Callie, best dog there ever was!! (Atticus runs a real close second)
And this was Sammy, we lost her to cancer last August
They're all beautiful, Ronnie! Is Harper Lee a favorite author for you?
Haagen Dazs was very cute, Jen. As is Wall-E.
Our first cat was a Siamese. I'll try to find a good shot of him.
Thanks Victor. "To Kill a Mockingbird" was one of the books I read in 7th. grade and hooked me on reading. Then along came the movie with Gregory Peck that hooked me on the story even more!! Hence the names Atticus and Harper. Sabrina is named for Audrey Hepburn in the movie "Sabrina"! If I go by classic favorites I'll have quite a collection of dogs by the time I cross the rainbow bridge! LOL
Cool! If I had a male dog, I would name him Wagstaff, after a Groucho character.
Haagen Dazs was a Keeshond, she was so sweet.
We almost got a Great Dane before we got Wall-e. We were looking into an English Bulldog too, the questions on the application were just ridiculous though.
Well I say adopt a Great Dane and that name would be terrific!!
Scary pic but only play and a sort of optical illusion!!
Ah thanks for jogging the memory Jen. We found one many many years ago and she lived with us for quite a while, no one ever claimed her. She disappeared one day and a few months later she was in a neighbors yard. I think it was their dog all along!!
I remember when you were looking into getting a Great Dane...I think it's easier to adopt child!! LOL I think about doing foster all the time but my husband just keeps giving me dirty looks. You would think with 4 dogs (last year 5) he would be a dog person by now!! Jeez!!
Cute pets, everyone!
Here are my sweet Boston Terrier boys, Mickey and Seamus. Their personalities are totally different, but they get along so well.
Cute terriers. A friend had one as a kid, I've loved them ever since.
We have 3 cats but only 1 pix of Jerry of the famous Ben and Jerry brothers from a animal shelter
This is Ben
YES I KNOW he's fat.
he weighs 18 pounds
Captain got fat, lounging inside so we cut down on his food. As I told the vet, when we let him out he would go to the barn & lounge there.
Nice shots, nor and Jo Anne!
