I have noticed lots and lots of pet pictures and pet talk in several other threads, so thought a Pet thread might be a good thing.

I have always had dogs, but also love cats. I used to breed & show Dobermans, but I have downsized :D I have a black cat named Lonnie, and a "Chug" (pug/chihuahua hybrid) named Sookie. She is kinda lika a pug with spindly chihuahua legs & pointy ears. They are like total best friends (who try to steal each others stuff):

I am so ridiculous that I go to garage sales and buy furniture to modify for them, lol.

This is when I got Sookie her boots last winter, God she hated them. But she hates snow more, so she wears them.

Did you know my cat Pipecleaner has his own facebook page? Add him to see lots of goodness.https://www.facebook.com/pipecleaner

But if you are some kind of weirdo who doesn't want to be friends with a cat on social media, here's a recent fave:

And here is a picture of my pet llama. I'm crate training him, you see:

If I had a cat, I would name it "Smattering O'Lightpianomusic."

But I don't know if he would get along with Wendigo.

Sookie AND Chico in the same thread? Cuteness overload!!! :hug:

Image
This is my Buddy Love. He started a fb page to cheer me up during my Dad's cancer stuff and death. He is always there for me - just a really sweet kitty.

Image
This is my girl Dazy. The look on her face comes from the fact that she hates everything except my son Sebastian.

Image
This is my Grandson Ziggy. He is a real bitey jerk tbh.

Image
This is Pozy. The most elegant, beautiful turtle in all the universe.

DP- Take a picture of you and your dogs - Nao!

So much temptation to spam the crap out of this thread with all my Best Animals in the World.

But I will refrain :noble:




....mostly because last time I tried to post a photo of my BFF, SVS had to fix it for me because I am incompetent. :blush:


But I like looking at your adorable buddies, peoples! Hooray!

Nah, your image service has notoriously unclear directions as to which link to use, and the correct one is buried in extraneous text. It took me a bit to figure it out, lol, so it's definitely your image folk, not you :D

My kitty Lonnie

I took it for a game, but I tend to post more pictures of my dog everywhere in general, so figured the Lonster should get some props. Plus we need more people posting pet pics. Come on pet people.

My neighbors dog, a huge poorly trained Cane Corso, got out and killed a cat. No one knows whos cat it is.

I HATE people who get huge dogs that can kill people and then don't train them properly. I have nothing against the dogs, I had Dobies for years, but it is so irresponsible to have a 150 pound dog and then not train it correctly. He pushed past them at the gate, would not come when called, and growled at his owner when he tried to get the cat away from him. He finally got the dog back in the yard, but still. It could have been my dog, I walk past that house all the time. It could have been a neighborhood kid, it could have been me.

I am just seething.

There are a lot of irresponsible dog owners. Sometimes people don't understand why I say I will and would never own a dog, but the simple reality is I do not want to be a responsible dog owner. It's a lot of work. If you don't want to put the work in, don't buy the dog.

That is why I will never own any type of dog. It's too much responsibility.

I have two housecats, stray kittens of a litter at my parents' farm. I feed them twice a day, check their water, clean their litter box, and occasionally clean up vomit. We never had to train them, we don't have to keep them quiet at night or chained up, and the worst they've tried to kill are flies and spiders.

They don't require walks or an incredible amount of bonding attention. If you want fluffy snuggles, and have handled the cats enough that they aren't afraid of you, then they will allow it. If you don't want fluffy snuggles, either ignore them or just push them away if they jump in your lap.

Off topic. Anyway, it's very little work. Would get another cat. Will never get a dog, as it's too much commitment. Especially not a dangerous dog.

Alex needs to post some pictures of Sato. Everyone flood his inbox with requests for pictures of his first pet. That way the next time he does actually get on the site he will be sure to share some pics. And probably yell at me... :haha:

I didn't see this thread, thanks SVS.

here's my 10-year old all white beauty, Lizzy.

Image

Image

she's a very charming cat, but temperamental (what cat isn't?). Doesn't get along with any other cats, or animals really, and completely hates babies, but she's a lap rat and loves affection from adults! Her favorite spot to sit is on me. Anywhere. But on me. Pretty uncomfortable and inconvenient sometimes, but eh.

She's beautiful, her eyes are amazing! I have always had black or grey cats, is she solid white like she looks? Or is she more cream?

And yeah, mine sleeps on me at night. He walks over me as I move like a log walker ha ha, it's pretty impressive. This is one of my favorites, it shows his personality so well. I was petting the dog not him, so he STOMPED off me and went across the room right in front of me and turned his back on me. So spiteful he is.

she's solid white. Usually, all white cats are either deaf or blind or both, but she's neither. She's very popular at the vets. They love her!

Do your cat and dog get along well? :)

and I know all about spiteful cats :p

this is how Lizzy greeted me on NYE. -_-
