Post Your Pets: Part Deux! (56k good luck)

*damnhooligan* · 02-02-2006, 02:13 PM

Rather than necromance September's pet thread, I thought we could use another thread in which to share pictures of our pets. Winter's the most depressing time of year, and that hump between Christmas and Valentine's day is a pretty soul-sucking time for a lotta folks. But the primary reason I started this thread is, well... I GOT A PUPPY!

=

Meet Widget. Short for Rocket Widget. You know, those little nitrogen-filled balls you find in cans of Guinness. She's half Rat Terrier, half what I suspect to be Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Some sort of bulldog, anyway. She's just shy of 8 weeks old and smells like poop. I'm itching to give her a bath, but she just got spayed a couple days ago so I have to wait a while longer. I've been bugging my husband for a dog for about 3 years, and finally all the pieces fell into place.

So now, your turn. Post your pets. Old pets, new pets, childhood pets! Bring em on.

*Sewer Bull* · 02-02-2006, 02:21 PM

Geez, she's so sweet! *awwws* The first pic is just uber-adorable.

I'm currently petless. A pic of my doxie mutt was in the old pet thread. I don't feel like getting a new dog soon.tho'. Maybe something more reptilian - but no, not a turtle. Maybe a snake.

*Anarky* · 02-02-2006, 02:58 PM

Awww.... isn't she adorable!

I'm sure you all know Jay, or you have at least heard of him. His real name is J.J. Phoenix (the Phoenix was added by my aunt, because she likes River Phoenix. She wanted to call him J.J. Phoenix Templar, but she somehow decided against that... I still wonder, why she got to name the dog). Anyways, he's a mixture of a maltese (his mom) and... well... uhm... a kangaroo? He jumps around a lot and he's usually in places where he shouldn't be (in my T-Shirt drawer for example). He also likes eating at the table ever since he found out that he can get his head into my plate.

This one was taken in the first days we had him and he was still pretty high (he had various shots that day). I had to take him to my grandma's and there he sometimes fell asleep while walking.

Here he is, a little taller and there seems to be something pretty interesting going on behind the camera.

Jay likes balls. Note his big paws. They're too big for any race his size. he still falls over them sometimes.

That's an old one as well, chewing my brother's hand.

Dirty, scruffed and dirty... that's him.

Another stoned pic.

I hope you liked the pictures, Jay was quite excited when I told him that he's going to be an internet-model and he's now harassing my brother.

Yeah, a Pit Bull Terrier is genetically the same thing as a Staffordshire, so at this point it could be either one. Staffies are a little smaller though and their temperment is a less aggressive due to the fact that they were bred from a show dog strain of Pit Bull. Either way, they're both intelligent, loyal and devoted breeds.

EDIT: Also, did you have to quote the entire post?

Okay, this is not actually what my Kirb looks like....well, it's an IDEA of what he looks like, becuase I forgot how to upload pics from my phone to a forum like this...

But anyhoo, BEHOLD!

Cute, ne?

*XERO* · 02-02-2006, 07:14 PM

No pets for me. I'm thinking of getting another goldfish soon.

*Raph's Girl* · 02-02-2006, 07:32 PM

This is a picture of my Mimi San. Her name is Aimee or Amilia but we all call her Mimi San or Bonzo. We only call her Aimee or Amilia when she's bad.

She thinks she's a dog tho cuz she loves dog food, Nanna Cha (a friend of mine's pitt bull), and she fetches (mostly rolled up balls of paper).

I got Mimi 2 (3 in Sept! ) years ago when she was barely 3 weeks old. A friend of mine's mom had found Mimi and her sisters very week in her garage abandoned by their mother. She was bottle fed for a while before eating on her own.

Mimi prepares to attack me.

*melts looking at DH's new baby* AwwwwwWWWWwww!! I LOVE that puppy! And I adore the name.

And one day I'll put some pics of my bunnies here. I have alot of the one and I need to get more of the others.

*Raven* · 02-02-2006, 10:13 PM

Her name is Snoopy, we named her that because we got her the day Charles Chultz(?) died. So it was in honor of him.
I havent been able to see her lately, she lives with my dad because we cant have pets were I'm at right now.
I sure miss that little bugger.

*Masked Ninja* · 02-03-2006, 03:24 AM

That's a cute puppy; hope you have a great time with her! And Widget is a kickawesome name.

This would be my baby

Hobbes is my crazy kitty, who I unfortunately had to leave at home when I went to college. She's going to be 4 soon, but she's still kinda small. We think she's also a bit species-confused, so we refer to her as a CatDogFerret. Nothing beats waking up at 2 in the morning with a cat licking your face lovingly. Except maybe chucking said cat across the room and going back to sleep.

Hmm...

Cat's got your tongue AND the title.

*JameO* · 02-03-2006, 04:10 PM

Behold! The almighty Smokey! Pissing off a family near you! I've had him for a good 10-12 years now, I can't quite remember, and he still won't die, I know that might be a bit cruel, but he bites everyone he can get his face near, he's a menace! Nothing but trouble ever since 2 weeks after we took him home, he was the normal one on the cage so we took him, then he turned wild.

Hahahaha! Everyone says that when they see Jay for the first time! I love those reactions.

But you must know that Jay's the biggest dog we ever had, so he's a big dog for our standards. But then again, I like small dogs. They're just as cool as big mutts but make less mess and work, which is a crucial thing here. We all work (okay, I don't at the moment, but that's not the standard here) and the bigger the dog is, the more attention and walkies it needs. And we couldn't give a big dog what it needs.

Besides, if you get the offer "Take him or he'll be drowned", would you go "Nah, I want a bigger dog..."?

EDIT: I forgot to mention that Jay is the most badass dog ever.

I know I voiced to some of you That Krow and I were getting a puppy....and since we've both been gone for quite some time I couldn't share her pictures right away.

So....Without further Adu....I give you Winter Sprite! (we just call her Winter)

Munching on some sticks when we first got her. Yummy!

curious about her first camera sighting.

Merry Christmas!
