Kitsune- nice rats! I've known a few pet rats that were GREAT, but I've only had mice and hamsters and rabbits, rodent-wise.

Velogirl- NICE ATLANTIS!!!!
And how wonderful that you have your old trike back- it looks to be in fabulous condition! How nice that you have it again.

All of your animals are sooo cute....DH got tired of listening to me...but the ones he saw he got the 'thats adorable' look...he's a sucker...hehehe

This is Allie she is a Tortoise Shell Cat...she is about to be a year and 5 months. She is a princess as DH puts it. All our friends say we dont need kids cause she is our kid. We love her and she loves to go to mom and dad's house and play outside with the other animals, but she doesnt travel. She also loves to help DH work on the bikes...

Allie looks SO much like Tsuki, right down to the little patch on her chest and her little black nose. Aww...

Torties are so special- such a unique personality!

I LOVE all of your pictures! (and I'm so visual, I barely read a thing....except to know that someone out there is looking for a new bigger dog and isn't sure what breed. I will always recommend border collies. They are so cuddly!)

This is our current tribe:
Diva, who knows she's beautiful

'Cuda who is so large for a border collie that he fits his name

Ted who is our 15 year old heart and thyroid patient, who still has a lot of spunk at the vet, and is a sweetheart at home

Otto who has finally grown to like us

Check out my yahoo photos to see more pictures of all of them

I haven't been around much to post lately, but I love this thread!! Pets are such an important part of our families; it's great to share their pics. They are all so wonderful!

Here are my 3 furrkids:

This is Isis, she's 4 and quite a character. She's on the top of the cat tree watching the water come in when my roof was leaking last winter.


This is Jezebelle my 5 year old rescue. I've had her 1 year this week. She is my slobber-puss! What a lover. I can't imagine why someone would abandon such a beautiful and sweet animal.


Isis and Jezebelle together.


Here's Jezz trying to finish my glass of milk. What a nut!!


And this is Samantha my 16 year old Angel. She is so special and keeps to herself mostly.

Greenmachine....Allie does the same thing with drinks, except she always manages to knock them over! but she loves the milk after we eat cearel.

Kitsune....my last cat was a tortie also and they look identical...but they are very unique, thats what i love abut them!

Here are our girls. They are sisters - Missy on the left and Coookie on the right. We adopted them about 3 years ago after loosing our two other beloved girls within just 3 months of each other. Missy is very shy, but is the "boss". She's a "mommy's girl". Cookie, is super friendly and is a "daddy's" girl.

GASP!!!
Noah, Tasha! Cover your ears!!
Sorry, but rabbits are not rodents. They belong to the order Lagomorpha. The difference comes down to teeth (they have extra incisors) and some other features. Rabbits are commonly called rodents, but they are not!

Well Noah, Tasha,....ex-QUZE ME!!!

Lagomorpha...does that mean lake form or lake species?

This is Alice, my 10.5 year old Newfoundland. She is rather petite at 120 pounds, but I try to keep her weight down because she has had 3 knee surgeries (born conformationally challenged). I got her as a puppy from the New England Newfoundland Rescue & Referral service. The owners of her mother had gotten a male and female as pups, and believed that if they raised them together they would not have to neuter at least one of them. When they discovered they were wrong, and a litter was on the way; and what they had gotten themselves into, they at least contacted the right group. One of the breeders took over the care of the expectant mom, whelped her and raised her litter. As soon as the pup's were weaned, mom went to be spayed before going back to the owner, who had already taken the male to be neutered. I got Alice on my 49th birthday, she was 30 pounds and 9 weeks old. She has always been a little goofy, and amazingly tolerant of my weirdness. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/newfsm...&.dnm=a821.jpg

Here are the girls (ages 15 and 16):

This is Nina, a half-ruddy-Abyssinian/half-grey tabby. She is completely sweet-natured and happy, purrs like a big motorboat, peeps like a bird, and we adore her.

And this is The Beeper--a typical Siamese who yaks constantly and lives to be petted and to bonk you on the nose sharply with her very hard head--just as she is doing below. Note she is in her proper place between me and the keyboard. A total grande dame.
