they are cute lady! Dog beach I bet!!!
It is dog beach. How do you know,after all you say you live in WI.
We love San Diego and have been there about 4 times for vacation :)
Well all my rats have gone to the "rainbow bridge" but they were awesome pets so I figured I would share them too :p

My two daughters, Abby and Laura with three of our clan - Oliver Oswald, a 7 toed Norweigian Forest Cat, Martin Eugene, a white and black cat, and Chester Allan, a rescue from the Humane Society!
aw, looky those big fat paws and the feathered ears on Oliver! Love forest cats :)
my 4 month old puppy came home yesterday. she is an australian labradoodle. i am amazed at how calm and relaxed and laid back she is. she has very cute playful puppy moments but she is so calm! nothing seems to faze her. i named her Zebedee Sunshine but we mostly call her Zeb. she is also very attentive and seems to be a fast learner. doing clicker training with her.

Zeb is beautiful! She looks big for 4 months, but there isn't really anything for scale in the picture. Imagine her and Henry's puppies! I bet they would be cute! Portulabradoodle? :confused:
lovin the rats and cats! moonfroggy, sometimes puppies take a "wait and see" laidback attitude when they first come home. I think it's a feeling of overwhelm. She could be a little more rambunctious the longer she lives with you so be forewarned!!!
They would make great puppies! If only Henry still had his manly parts LOL
thank you for the warning warneral. i will watch what happens and try and be prepared for more rambunctiousness! i am certain when she becomes more an adolescent she will become a bit less easy regardless of how she is now.
redrhodie i think she is sort of big. her father is pretty big her mother is more medium sized. she goes to the vet tomorrow morning and i plan to ask how big he thinks she will get.
What a lovely selection of pets. :)
Since the demise of my little Bluey the budgie, I have not pets.
However, I am sharing in the excitement of my son and his family deciding to get a beautiful Beagle from a nearby rescue home.
He is a darling, 2 years old and is just a big soppy and actually does as he is told, now that's a bit rare for a Beagle.

Sorry the photos are so large.
Nice rats, Feral. I used to have all kinds of pets while growing up. Never rats, but mice and hamsters and bunnies and snakes etc. My friends had rats and they were cute....they sure get BIG! Were your rats eating scallions in that picture? :confused:
Awwwww how cute, a boy and his dog. :D
No they were eating peas :D that was the favorite with the group.Quote:

aw, I love beagles :)
re cats in the bathroom - it's not that easy to get up and get dressed in the mornings either sometimes. Our cat is bored and social and likes to be lifted onto a lap first thing in the morning, um... let's say no matter where you might be sitting. And more often than not she'll just slide over sideways and fall splendidly asleep :D
Almost 3 years after losing my beloved Boo-Boo cat and 1 month plus after losing Pooky-Wooky Isis kitty, DP and I went to the shelter last Friday and brought home this little bundle of energy and curiosity:

She is 1 year and 1 month and a little underweight (6.4 lbs) but we are working on that.
So far, Athena cat still hisses and growls but they did both sleep in the same bed last night for the first time.

Katy is very curious but soooooooooo wonderfully gentle with the new kitty.

LOL. Lucy is making those middle-of-the-night bathroom trips ... interesting. Can I jump up in your lap? As can be seen above, she quickly discovered the bathtubs; she also likes to bat at water in dripping from the sink and she seems fascinated with batting her paw into the toilet water. :eek: Oh, and she likes plants too. Everything is taking on aroma de bitter apple.
ooh! I'm so happy you got a black kitty! everyone should have a black cat as they tend to languish in shelters. I like how you're colour coordinated, black, white, and black and white! :D
Welcome, Lucy!! What a wonderful group of furbabies you have, Norsegoddess. Good on you for giving a shelter cat a home.
Awww, so many cute photos of cats and puppies and children and... :)
Norsegoddess, they all look adorable, and thanks for giving a lovely little black cat a home, they do have such a hard time finding a forever home.
Thanks everyone. Lucy is our second black cat as my Boo-Boo was also black, and the most loving kitty you could have asked for. The bias against black cats is just silly IMHO. We didn't plan the black/white scheme (Athena even has a black/gray tail), it just happened! :p

Here's my little buddy, Goliath the Olde Boston Bulldogge :D
Awwww, Goliath, what a handsome fellow! There are some photos of our Paisley earlier in this thread, but I doubt you want to go scrounging back for pages, so here's another. She's our baby, of course:Quote:

Ee-gads. I've entered the kitty world. After 18 years of vegan pets, we now have carnivores in the house (other than us), complete with their sharp little teeth, crazy wrestling, and (pew!) stinky poops! :eek:
This past Monday, DH and I brought home two kittens from BIL/SIL's house up in NY. They had taken in a feral cat, who had 4 kittens in their den. We took 2. Still not 100% sure of the genders - we think the black is male and the grey is female, but I'm wondering if we got that backwards or if they're both female. A trip to the vet is in the plans but we're letting them settle in for now - which they seem to be doing with gusto. After one evening of hiding behind the dining room hutch (the room has been converted into kitty kindergarten for the time being, and they've adopted the back of the hutch as their favorite hidey-spot, much to our chagrin), they have become more bold and less skittish. Our neighbor's minivan with the loud muffler still startles them, but they are bolting less frequently to our walking around.
Tentative names are: black one = Paris (as in the Trojan prince), and the grey one is Zoe. They are really enjoying their jungle gym. They learned how to get on top of it last night - and constantly battle for the high ground in their ongoing wrestling matches.
Congratulations on your new babies ! :p
oh oh oh - kittens are the best entertainment ever! Enjoy kittenhood, I'm jealous :p
Those kittens are very lucky 7rider. Enjoy!
Enjoy having the kittens! They can get a little frustrating, especially if they don't have a playmate, but they are loads of fun :) Thanks for sharing!
I love the photo of Goliath, and this one of Paisley. What a couple of beauties.Quote:

Poor Tari is 9 month old. She is (supposed to be) a show dog. She lives with me, and has had a tough time of it! Her latest oops involved chasing my shiba-x through a barbed wire fence. Tari lost and has had to have surgery to repair her rear leg and wear a "no bite" collar for the last 2.5 weeks. I took it off her last night... Revenge is sweet!

This is Laverne & Shirley. Laverne on the back of the chair, asserting her place in the hierarchy :)
Those are definitely indoor cats what nice white and fluffy hair - I just want to reach out and pet them!Quote:

Tari got her stitches out yesterday, the vet was very happy with the state of her wound healing. But, I'm supposed to be keeping her quiet and wearing the E collar for a few more days.
Sheba in the sun this morning, and Sheba and Suki...

Awesome shots, Lisa. Sheeba and Suki are gorgeous. I love that room, too. Very pretty!
