I could look at this post all day. I love all of your photos of your pets. Here is a newer one of my cat. Someone told me when he was a little that if I started rubbing his belly when he was small, he would get used to it and not scratch at me. Not only does he not scratch at me, but he purposely lies down on his back so we can rub his belly.

Don't worry, I cleaned the table after this.

^^ SW, what a cute kitty!! adorable :icare:

Alpha phi bought me a digital camera yesterday as a belated birthday present. I've been having fun.
Here's Cleo, one of my babies

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...opos4/cleo.jpg

Just adorable! :) I love the look in her eyes!

thanks for sharing! (and a digi. cam! what a cool birthday present!)

sweetpea

Y'all, I got the BEST c'mas present EVER! I finally got pictures to post of my new baby!!!

I was shopping for a stud for my female miniature dachshund, and the offer of a lifetime fell in my lap for another dog.

So, without further ado, I introduce...

Dino!!!

http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y14...s/pic12525.jpg


And a shot of all three of my babies, in lovely, rare, harmony AND sitting still together in one place so I can take a picture:
http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y14...s/pic12528.jpg

awwww Bryndian very cute and handsome pups


Which one is Dino studding for? The little girl in the middle? :) Or is tan on the end a male also?

My dog is so cute xoxoxox he makes me happy(he has a funny hair cut he looks like a lion now)

aww qtpye has a little cutiepie!

Atropos4, what kind of dog is Cleo? she looks maybe at least part australian cattle dog.

Bryndian, Cute dauchsends!

Gabe now gives free piggy back rides. :lol:

She is infact part cattle dog. She was an oops pup. Her mom was a pure dalmation and her dad was a cattledog/lab
I always enjoy your pictures, very well taken. ^_^
http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/4859/jan060ni.jpg
She got bored of me taking pictures.



qt ....awww I love poms, Lion cuts are very cute, and fun to do actually. :thumbsup:

Cool! Dalmation is an integral part of the mix in australian cattle dogs. So... Cleo got a double dose of the spots! Right on. :D

Well it's taken me some time, but I've finally
got to the end of this thread! And I have to
say I've thoroughly enjoyed every second of
it. :) :)

It's amazing how much pleasure our furry (and
sometimes feathered) friends bring us.

Here's a pic of my two old pals Ricky and Ben...
I love their expressions here...

Got it right the first time. The red one is male... I had him neutered when he was a puppy... I love him very much, but as far as AKC standards for the breed go, he leaves a lot to be desired, and so is not a candidate to stud. My female, the black and tan one with the white spots, meets breed standard beautifully, with the exception of the white (she's a double dapple) which is not a disqualifying trait, but not particularly desirable. And the new one, Dino, is dead on breed standard. I'm looking forward to seeing if their genetics will produce the puppies I think they will.

Goodluck ;) I can't wait to see the pictures :)

Shelby loves to bury herself in her blankets...
here's my puff ball :) She has an overbite... and i realize i'm biased... but i think it's cute :D hehe

awwwww Sweetpea!
Have you posted pics of Shelby before?!?! (maybe i missed them?)

She's a doll - the overbite is CUTE! :)
What kind of canine is she? She looks kind of on the smallish side.

I certainly share in your thoughts. Our little Molly is gone, but she really was very special. I'll have to scan some photos of the little sweetie.

yes indeedy, i'd love to see :D

She's a black and white pom. I have a puppy pic. up of her on p. 10, post # 386 ;) And she's 8 pounds of lovin' and doesn't consider herself small :) hehe

Most poms. can be quite 'talkative', but we've been very pleased, she's quiet, sweet, good with the kids that visit and responds well to training... she's been a happy addition to our little fur-family :)

1. Blaming your farts on me... not funny... not funny at all!!!

2. Yelling at me for barking... I'M A FRIGGIN' DOG, YOU IDIOT!

3. Taking me for a walk, then not letting me check stuff out. Exactly whose walk is this anyway?

4. Any trick that involves balancing food on my nose... stop it!

5. Any haircut that involves bows or ribbons. Now you know why we chew your stuff up when you're not home.

6. The sleight of hand, fake fetch throw. You fooled a dog! Whoooo Hoooo what a proud moment for the top of the food chain.

7. Taking me to the vet for "the big snip", then acting surprised when I freak out every time we go back!

8. Getting upset when I sniff the crotches of your guests. Sorry, but I haven't quite mastered that handshake thing yet.

9. Dog sweaters. Hello? Haven't you noticed the fur?

10. How you act disgusted when I lick myself. Look, we both know the truth, you're just jealous.

Now lay off me on some of these thing's, we both know who's boss here! You don't see me picking up "your" poop, do you?

This is Jericho and Rupert snuggling on the couch. They've got a bit of a checked past. Rupert was our 2nd cat, after Fletcher drowned at christmas last year, trapped under the ice on our neighbour's pool. My gf picked up Rupert at the pet store about a 2 weeks later, because I was away at work, and she was devastated and the house was so empty without Fletcher. So Rupert was the dominant cat in the house, when we bought Jericho home. She had been trapped in the wild at a grain elevator, abused (she's missing teeth and she's terrified of men) and left to languish in the animal shelter for 6 months before we saw her. She had a uterine infection when we got her and her first trip in the car with us was to the vet for emergency surgery, even before she had met Rupert. When we got her home finally, she cried for the first 3 days, while hiding under the bed, and then she discovered the basement, and she hid for the next two weeks under the bicycles, and all the while Rupert pestered her constantly. Just when we thought the two of them would hate each other forever, something clicked between them, and they've been like this ever since. Jericho is still very skittish, she'll hide from strangers, but the only time she cries now, is when she can't find Rupert.

http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...o/IMG_0021.jpg

Wow .. quite the sad adventure she's had so far ... glad to see she's in good hands now.

We just picked up our new puppy over the weekend, He is a 9 week old Sheltie.

can't go wrong with orange cats !
 

this is Rex.....................

orange cats are the best. Jericho has a strip of orange fur across her muzzle and nose, we call it her mustache!

'ol Legacy just couldn't wait for his hay.........tried to get it before i even got to put it away.

Rupert and Jericho Part Two
 

Rupert was sleeping on the couch last night, and Jericho climbed over him, lay down between his paws and nuzzled him till he woke up and started to groom her. After about 5 minutes of mutual grooming (necking), they were so comatose, I was able to grab the camera and get some shots. If you look closely, Jericho looks like she is smiling!
http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...o/IMG_0308.jpg

that is a happy kitty... :)

Loup: What an adorable lab! :love: :D

Lucifer: okay... i think my heart just metled... they are so adorable together. they really love each other don't they? :)

flyman said "winker" -- omglolrofl :lol:

lemme guess.........a bastard skwerl?????

real nice, Grancey. meow x4 ! :)

Fly, Shadow is just awesome -- your pic's perspective makes her look like a giant!! :D

We drove up to the mountain last Saturday. My two silly guys got to see snow for the very first time ever -- needless to say they loved it! i'm slowly learning a new camera, so i didn't get as many fun pics as i should've... but here's one anyway.

Kitty-Cat YinYang
 

I got this great shot of Rupert and Jericho sleeping on my IKEA chair yesterday. Usually they sleep on separate chairs, but when they curl up together, I can't help myself but take a few pics.

http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...o/IMG_0437.jpg

i'll tell ya' bern..........she sure acts like it.


:rolleyes:



did you photoshop the sweater on Gabe??

Nope, Fly. Gabriel really wore an honest to goodness knit sweater, cuz he gets cold easily.

Those kitties are pretty & sweet, Lucifer. i used to have a couple of sweet cats that snuggled all the time. :)

http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h2...Florida100.jpg
This is Dewey. She was born under the front steps of the Library. Get it... Dewey

Dewey's a cutie...

Coincidence?
 

Hey Grancey, My Dewey looks a lot like your guy on the chair - right down to the reddish/orange spots. Maybe they're related? Dewey has pretty dubious origins so you never know. :D

the boys were havin' a sleep the other day.

Sammy is the golden beauty. Kaida is the whiter, younger mutt.

those are nice lookin' dogs..............

fly, that's very funny. You don't usually see that sort of thing... both sleeping.

look at the eyes... they aren't sleeping - -they're stoned :) but happy horsies... :)

While I'm ASSUMING you're talking about my dogs...
They are <u>so</u> well behaved. I have them on "vocal leashes." They are rather spoiled though. I can't count how many people have said that when they come back, they wanna come back as one of my dogs.

Samantha a couple of years before we adopted Kaida.

<a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j213/astrahl/SammySofa.jpg" border="0" alt="Image hosting by Photobucket"></a>

and when we got "K," I would have sworn she was going to be very retrieverish...

<a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j213/astrahl/PuppyJuly066.jpg" border="0" alt="Image hosting by Photobucket"></a>

i know.........one usually has a nap,and the other watches over him.......


no way mal...........i wouldn't waste my stash on them......:D

i'm working my dog for vocal leash too........and she's pretty damn good with just hand signals as well.

Here's Pepe. He's a blast.
Does anyone know a surefire way to litterbox train a ferret?
I also have two guinea pigs and a female yellow lab named Charlie. But Pepe is the latest addition.

That reddish/orange spot is so close..... Dewey is a true sweetie with beautiful eyes, and my Sophie is a thinker... But from the backside they could be twins. Sophie was adopted from my local vet a year ago Christmas. She doesn't purr, but she kind of puffs...

Fly....that was the first day I opened the windows and the babies went bonkers. I'm guessing they had spied the bunny that lives in the yard, but it could have been the woodpecker, a finch or one of the crazy skwerls...

What a beautiful cat Grancey!

:)

sweetpea

polly and gus..........just tryin' to get them back in thier coop.......

they find worms in the lawn,and go fucking nutso..........pretty fun to watch.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1.../pollyngus.jpg

oh all the animals make me soo happy!!! everyones extended family is so awesome.

I can't believe I haven't posted here yet. :rolleyes:

From left to right, this is Scoop and Frickle after a hard days work.

http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a1...s/139_3985.jpg

Is one male and one female? Cause Frickle seems to be about twice the size of Scoop. Frickle has such a haughty expression, I love it.

Yeah, Frickle is male and pretty fricken big, but Scoop is actually pretty close in size. Most of her bulk is just hidded behind him.

nice cats fresnelly.........i need one down here for the mice.

the dog just ain't quick enough all the time.

My other cat, Sydney (I haven't posted a picture of him yet), is the best mouser I know. We had a little problem with mice in my building a couple of years back. I woke up one night to the sound of him charging around my bedroom. When I turned on the light to see what was going on he was tossing a dead mouse up in the air and watching it drop. He had the funniest look on his face as if to say, "Come on, what's wrong with you? You were playing with me a minute ago!"

The mouse must have passed a message on to his buddies before he died, because that was the last time we've seen a mouse in the building.

Alright...without further ado, the oldest and youngest, from left to right - Tigger and Miles:

Thanks, TB. Here's a full shot of Dixie (same day and still 5 days old). :cool:

man tropic..........that is too cool.


nice shot..........and enjoy the new addition.

Oh wow Tropic! Congratulations!
Excuse my ignorance, but is that a horse, mule or what?
5 days old & nearly all legs, but standing tall & pretty.
Bob, do you have a perspective shot, like with a person or chair or whatever, to get a better idea of her size?

Congrats to you too, Fly. Pretty chickens. Scrambled eggs are good eatin' once in a while.

A mule. Too cute to call her a jackass, yet.
:lol:

Here's the very protective mother and Dixie. Hope this helps gives you an idea. She is growing fast. Unfortunately, my camera was in the shop the first four days she was around.

the mother and child shot is adorable -- camera hams :lol: Dixie is a cutie...
