So do you have a pet? I've had pets pretty much all my life, except for the time I was touring Europe for a couple of years.

I used to have a rooster! by the name of Pecker :D I kept him out in the backyard when I lived in Greece, he was cool, until he started "pecking" everything and had to send him away, away at that time meant to a village, where I'm sure he ended being a meal at some point :cry:

I've had a dog by the name of Tickles! Actually my ex g/f named him that. When she decided she didn't want him anymore, I took him, he was the greatest dog, got run over by a truck :cry:

I also had a cat in Greece, I named her "Psi" (Greek for hey!, lol) she wasn't really domesticated, she would live outside, I built a little "cat house" for her in the backyard. She would always run up to me when I came home. After a while I started touring Europe and before heading back home to the New York, I stopped by the house in Greece (it was my grandmothers), Psi, was still there, waiting for me! She died 3 days later :cry:

Upon my return to New York I got a little kitten, and named her Yankee, lol, I've had her for years, she doesn't like anyone except me! Muahaha! She even growls at the mailman and the UPS guy, lol or anyone else that gets within 100 feet of the house. 8)

Anyobdy else?

I have a German Short Haired Pointer named Rumour. I picked her up from a breeder who was looking to retire her. Wonderful dog, 8 years old, and full of life.

If I haven't cleaned up her mess outside, and it is cold outside, and her mess freezes, guess who eats those frozen treats in the back yard....Rumour does!


She did have a pic on the net from her previous owner. If it is still there I will post it.


I used to have a Ferret I named Hezbollah, because she was a little terrorist when she was young. She was the cutest thing in the world….Even though she would pee where her heart desired, and would wreck stuff, I loved her to pieces. She died of heart failure on us, and I miss her dearly.

Rumour is her nick name so to speak...she is the one on the right, and her "estate" name was "we be talking" hence her nick name....

She is a very regal girl too....

The other dog was the sire of her last litter.

I have a beagle, Jay and a cat, Lucy. I used to have a guinea pig that another cat I used have loved to play with. He didn't mind,nothing really phased him. I guess being snake food and surviving that toughens you up a bit.

I had a little scotty called Jinx. her original owners had her for eight years, but when she escaped from the backyard and got caught by the pound they would not pay the fee for her.

So she was one week away from being put down, and I came in with my sister looking for a cat, but she bounced, or you could say wiggled right up to me and we got her instead.

So she lived with us for seven years before she past away a year ago.

My sister's pitbull was named Salvador Doggy ... I thought that was clever. He is a total sweetie ... but hubby got custody so I don't get pix of him anymore. :(

I've had waaaayy too many pets over the years.

When I was a kid, we had 9 cats all named after the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice.

I still have the cat Akasha, and we've found two more in the Medieval Times barn, which we have named Jezzabel, and Gremlin.... Gremlin being a particularly descriptive name since she isn't fully domesticated, and likes to swat and anything that may offend her.... which is most everything.... but will snuggle on my tummy when it pleases her.

We also have a michevious little beagle puppy named Mr. Brown (watched resevoir dogs a few too many times).

I have a hairless terrier named Radar. He's different from all my other pets because he generally doesn't like people other than me (and his babysitter) and he is flamboyantly gay which has led his babysitter to nickname him Gay-dar.

I have four Cats, Bart and Elmo, sisters from different litters...yep girls, Bart doesn't like anyone really but her fur mommy, and sometimes her fur Daddy. Elmo is a bit neurotic, doesn't like bieng picked up, but will demand attention by jumping on you and head butting...especially when having a pee.

Bart


Elmo


Squidget, who thinks that she's still a kitten, and wants everybody to love her



And my Kramer boy...my familiar
The attitude of Bart without agility. My poor guy is almost 9 and has an underdevelopped cerebellum, so his balance is off, and his depth perception. He came to us from Alberta last year, when it was learned that he was kept in a locked shed for 2 months with 3 other cats. He's much happier now;

This is Pyewacket

Some might remember the name from the movie, "Bell, Book, and Candle". When we first got her we weren't sure if we should let ourselves get too attatched to her because she has this strange habit; She chases dogs. So far the dogs have considered a fight not worth the bother. When we moved to Nanaimo, the first thing she did was to whip every cat in the neighborhood. With the family she has never bared a claw.
