More cute fur (or snakeskin) babies!!! I love it! Jens is adorable!
I don't have any new pictures of our cats, but I will share how in love I am with Izzy, our "kitten" (she's one now, but still very kitten like). She is obsessed with the squirrels and chipmunks that frequent our yard. This morning, she was tearing through the house, rushing from one window to the next, so that she could watch one of our squirrel visitors. She's so darn cute. Henry, my lump of a "mature" cat, is still loving as ever. I can't sit down without him jumping on my lap for pets. They always make my day.

Such lovely pets, and Jens is adorable - the kitties make me want to go out and get one
The colors of the snakes are beautiful - though I have to admit that I am terrified of snakes... I am sure they have their good points though since a lot of people do seem to love them as pets!
Antaresia, what kind of snakes are they? They're very pretty.
And the other furry (and scaly, and chitin-covered!) pets are very cute too!
At least I don't leave slime trails.

Saving for the next one...
In order:
two corn snakes, a spotted python, a boa constrictor, and a Solomon Island ground boa - we think (locality is hard to pin down for Candoias). She was misidentified as a viper boa at first, she's probably had a rough life and I don't blame her one bit for the bites she hands out.
Nancielle, Ghost is adorable, and he's lucky to have found a home with you. I hope whoever abandoned him steps on a piece of lego barefoot every day for the rest of their life

Add me to the list that love Blue/Grey cats. When I was younger my Nanny bought me a cat fancy magazine subscription but all I liked was the Russian Blues. Now I am partial to the Manx breed which is how my baby Tortilla got rescued!

This is Zoe, my rescue pup. She came from a serious hoarding situation last year. Was rescued at 4 weeks of age and I was able to get her home with me at 8 weeks. The original vet who looked her over said she would have died within a week. I am so lucky to have her, she has truly enriched my life (and pushed me to be a better dog trainer because she isn't easy!)
She was sleeping in the sun...
On our hike yesterday, all legs. She has a racer's body... and she sure can fly!
On her "princess bed"... two huge dog beds on a comfy arm chair and a comforter. (and I bet she can still feel a pea!)

I managed to get a beautiful shot of my pup today! She needs a haircut though, she's like the frickin Breck Girl.

She is a Shih Tzu. She turns 14 tomorrow. A few months ago she started to have TIAs/mini strokes. She has recovered from each of them. She also can not hear anymore. Makes me sad because I always praise her and now she can't her that. She also has tumors on both of her kidneys.I love my little dog.
Happy birthday to your "little dog." I'm sorry to hear she's not in the best health. Keep on lovin' on her. She may not hear your praise, but I bet she can read you like a book.
@Reesha, your dog is just gorgeous! And love the house!
@7rider, your furbabies are growing up to be beautiful cats. I hope you're enjoying them, notwithstanding the lamp!

@colorisnt. Congrats on your new pup! I'm glad you have a new friend. I mentioned in another thread that I was glad to see you back. When we last heard from you, you were feeling pretty down. It sounds like you're doing well now. I'm so glad. I'm sure the dog has been therapeutic.

Our first Boston Terrier, Pepper, lived to 14-3/4. The last year+ she was deaf, nearly blind, partially incontinent, in addition to her longer-term health problems (seizures, hyperlipidemia, and hypothyroidism). We just bent down and gave her loving that way since she couldn't hear the verbal praise. She was a trooper and a happy girl up until almost the very end when she started having cluster seizures, and we finally had to put her down. All you can do is give them the best care and kindness for as long as they still have good quality of life. Enjoy her remaining time and know that you are giving her a wonderful home!
