OK, all us keepers of critters. What's ya feeding?

We're down to 2 dogs-a 16+ year old Toy Fox Terrier named "Nipper" and a 5+ year old chocolate Lab named "Schnook" (really named Dylan, put the pet's pet name is what he's called).

Just lost our 16+ old DSH cat, "Jerkin' Joe". Named for an activity he engaged in relentlessly until the last few months of his time.

10 yr old Shiba Inu, who is now blind, which is too bad because she was a great hiking dog.

None.

If you ever feel like being amused by means of terrifying me, invite me over, don't tell me you have pets, and then have them sneak up behind me. I will jump, scream, and run away. Dead serious. And the smaller they are, the worse.

  • Sammy - a beautiful male calico,
  • Mowgli - aka pretty girl or baby girl. One year old calico kitten, full of crazy energy and totally in charge of her brothers (and the rest of the house for that matter)

A great big ass Black MALE cat that found us 5 yrs ago .

WE luv this sucker --thinks he's a damn dog -- A real friendly people cat

We had black labs for yrs so didn't know squat bout felines and swore that pet ownership was over now that we can travel at will------------------------ then this guy shows up .

Me being a stupid SOB ( as far as cats are concerned) says OH MAN this one has to be called " Queen Latifah" cuz hell SHE's large in charge and sassy . SO I TOOK the cat to my buddy a vet for all the right shots etc and he says what's the cat's name -- I say with PRIDE that's Queen Latifah "

He pees his pants laffing at me and says you got gender bent dude-------that's the biggest damn MALE at i've treated in years SO the "TEEFSTER "has been re-named

Somebody once told me - and I don't know if it's true...

Cats and humans are the only critters that kill just for the pleasure of it..

Had a cat once that was a hunting machine. Ate about a squirrel a day and when I say "ate" he ate the whole thing. He's start at the head and just keep munching until the tail and the feet were left. If you tried to interfere he'd growl at you. Super nice cat otherwise, good at parties, would walk around scamming chips and food off of people.

A dog, Suzy, a 13 yr old Collie/Shepard female mix also known as dogface and stinky dog.... ;)
A cat, Isabella, a 8 yr old, grey and white long haired, bratcat. Other nicknames for her are belly and lately fox food. She was chased recently late one night almost into our house by a fox(well I think it was a fox)

Hubby also likes to tease the dog or should I say the cat with the dog by having the dog go after the cat with the just stopping short and then they both just look at each other, sniff each other, then walk away. He tells the dog to "get the kitty!" ;)

One grey cat adopted at Petco. She was rescued from a parking lot in the Bronx (so they say).

How does the phrase go? No good deed goes unpunished? She has successfully destroyed all of our couches and is happily shredding our area rugs. My wife loves her too much (and would know the truth if I told her she "ran out the back door").
