Post your pets here.

This is my 9 year old St. Bernard. Her name is Lupine.

Happy Thread™.

This is the little puppy that a friend gave me to take care of while she went on the dog show circuit...she's a teeny tiny 1 pound Yorkie...I'll probably keep her.

Her name is Gracie.

RAILhead · May 19, 2006, 03:18 PM

Uno and Twosie:

Rumor · May 19, 2006, 03:26 PM

Railhead, that's a biiiiiig cat.

ghporter · May 19, 2006, 05:28 PM

Here's Sam:

He gets really tired playing Halo 2.

When I find more and get 'em hosted, I'll post them.

Cody Dawg · May 19, 2006, 07:05 PM

A lot of people have cats here.

Your cats would eat my Gracie and then some.

RAILhead · May 19, 2006, 07:58 PM

Uno is a proud 17 pounds.

You can see more of him on my Flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/maurymccown/

Maximus Fartikus is not fond of sharing:

Other than that, he's a very cool dog.

This is my dog, Toby. We rescued him from a local shelter back in November of 2002.

Yes, he visited Santa back in 2003. Don't ask.

He hides when he knows he's about to get a bath, too.

The one on the left is Biscuit (named after Brian's mother from Family Guy)
The one on the right is Mikey. (Picked him up for free at Petsmart)

It would seem they're going at it like cats and dogs.

How cute, King Bob On The Cob!

Our cat Pixel likes to lay next to the XBOX. I think she likes the warmth and the fan...

Here's my 9 month old kitten. Her name is Gremlin. She's half Bengal and half Feral. She loves to talk, hang out on top of the door and wake me up a 5:30 am.

I think this has turned into a cat thread?

Here is our other dog at the beach:

Great thread!

I'll add in one 14 month old Golden Retriever. The pics are from various months over the last year.

In one of them you can see our cat also. All she does is sleep!

andreas_g4 · May 20, 2006, 02:39 PM

My little two year young cat, Upsi:

@ James: Soooo cute

Nope, she's a medium hair black kitty. And ironically for her name, she hates being the element in a picture, so we have very few good pics of her.

Here's my Flickr set with my pets - CUTE PETS!

James L you have one hell of a cute dog there. When I finally get a retriever, Im naming it Professor Barksworth and taking it to the park everyday to pick up chicks.

Thanks!

She is awesome...I think my favourite pet of all time.

I have always had short haired labs prior to this one, and the amount of shedding she is doing right now is amazing. Long hairs equal a lot more work in that department.

My word of advice when you get your retriever, take her to a groomer around the beginning of March, again in the beginning of May, and once more around the beginning of July. It will save you a lot of headache!!!

p.s. She is a chick magnet for sure!

JoshuaZ · May 20, 2006, 08:28 PM

Can you spot the three pets? In that photo? Wilson on top, Shadow in the box, and Murphy wondering what the heck is going on.

Though Wilson was such a cute kitten.

You're lucky you get to sleeop that long - we've got 4 cats, 2 tabby/Scottish Wildcat hybrid, 1 Maine Coon and 1 Bengal, and they all takes turn in waking us at 04:00 in the morning!

If we don't get up to feed them, then our toes get "played" with.

Cody Dawg · May 21, 2006, 07:16 AM

Hi Ulrich Kinbote:

It is Jupiter Inlet, Florida.

Click here for a live picture of the beach.

It's beautiful and clean, yes.

Our three have "their own room" (the laundry room) for that very purpose. It's got the litter box, food and water, and their beds (door-less cat carriers with nice soft towels). They do not like being left in there too late in the morning, but they don't get to chew on toes, either, so it's all fuss and no blood.

Cody, your Australian Shepherd is one gorgeous dog. Wow.
And Rumor, I'd love to use Lupine as a pillow. Looks like a great dog.

This is Ebey in front of the wood stove:

and this is Ebey when she was a puppy:

Mithras · May 21, 2006, 12:13 PM

And (last one!), here's Paloma and Ebey cuddling:

Speaking of dogs, what ever happened to AK King Crab? He had wonderful dogs.

ThinkInsane · May 21, 2006, 12:44 PM

That's Otto. He's a cat. I'm currently looking for a new dog to keep his uppity ass inline.

good luck. usually it works the other way. Cat already in residence keeps new dog in line.

Here's a link to Jimmy Lee whose experiments to find the least amount of energy needed to stay alive moved to their ultimate conclusion last summer (he took a nap and never woke up). He was able to maintain a perfect 21 pounds no matter how little food he received. He is gone but he is still big in our hearts.

Be careful with any concrete stairs. I'm not joking. This is how my hostfather's miniature Yorkshire died. He fell down two (!) steps. Poor thing cracked its skull. It was the most bizzarre death of an animal I have heard of to date.

MrsLarry · May 22, 2006, 09:11 AM

Hooray for pet threads!!!

Here's Bowser (yes, like in Super Mario Bros), he's a 1.5 year old Bengal:

And here's him and Kismet being mischieveous, she's 1 and a tortie/calico mix kitty:

Here's them for Halloween (Larry and I were Mario and Peach):
