What beautiful animals everyone has! I love seeing these pictures.
Here’s Bubbles napping in the sun. She actually chose me! A stray, she showed up one day when I was working in the front yard of my previous house and then pursued me relentlessly until I took her in. She was just a “teenager” then. I had lost a cat to liver failure the year before, and, in some way, I have always thought that had something to do with why she came to me. That was almost 6 years ago, and I couldn’t imagine her not being with me now.
Moosie (another Peke) was about 2 in this photo. She went to doggie heaven about 3 years ago when she blew a disc in her back and was paralyzed. Dr said that there was a 15-20% chance that she would get some movement back in her legs but she would never have control over bowel movements, etc so we had her put to sleep. It was so sad. Tank had the surgery on his back for a leaking disc and did quite well with it.
Here's a picture of my baby, Fruit Loop, a 4 year old Sun Conure... I took this a couple of years ago for a "cutest pet picture contest" we had at work. I always imagined the caption underneath this reading... "Ok, you want me to pose...How's this!"
Here are my two children. I couldn't wait to get my hands on these two the moment I saw them. They are about three years old now and totally in charge!
Lilly is the light grey female tabby and Tiger is the big "momma's boy" in front of her.
Since this is the animal lover's thread, and I am certainly one of the biggest animal lovers around, I thought I'd share this commercial clip, which is an advertisement for Animal Planet. I always thought it was very cute.
