The Members' Pets Picture Thread

Post by Comosicus »

Due to the lack of such a recent thread, I hereby open a place for our pet companions to be displayed. If this gets popular perhaps it could even get stickyfied.

Now, to have it rolling:

Image
Our cat, "Special"

Image
Her 2 1/2 moths daughter, Fifi

Let this thread bask in the cuteness of our pets :mrgreen:

Aww, are those siamese cats? Cute whatever they are :) I used to have a siamese cat when I was a kid. She got out though and got hit by a car :(

Anyway, my other thread is over there but I'll stick some of my pictures in here anyway ;)

The only picture I have with me sucks, but okay:

Coco wouldn't get off the newspaper, so we put some glasses on her and took the picture.

Special is a birmanese and we named her like that because she has only half of her tail (and , let's admit it, after a cartoon character :mrgreen: ). How she got that way we have no clue, but I've seen on National Geographic another cat that was born that way, so it might be the case here too.

Here are some older pictures of her (IIRC it was when she was in heat, otherwise she would have never posed like that )

As for Fifi, her father is unknown: her mother jumped from 3rd floor and we found her the next day at noon, in the bushes with what looked like a lighter-colored version of Mrs Kendall's cat. But who knows who she met with that night :twisted:

We currently have one and a half cats. The one is Max:

Image
Image

The half is Biff who's black and white, old and senile and considers the whole neighbourhood his home so we don't really see him much anymore and unfortunately i don't have any pics of him on this computer.

Until recently we had Cookie (Beige) and Jake (Silver Tabby) as well:

Image
Image
Image

But Jake just dissapeaered one day, and Cookie was found dead in our next door but one neighbours garden. Kinda sucks as they were the youngest of our cats (they were brothers) and also the cutest. But we live next to a main road and neither of them seemed to have much road sense. Since Cookie died Max has started picking up the slack in the cuteness department though.

Thank you. That picture is at least several months old. Meanwhile, she learned to close her eyes as soon as the focus led blinks on the camera so we can hardly get other pictures like that.

Dogs New Year's Resolutions
Even though I'm a springer, I will not spring through the open car window and into the fast food restaurant, no matter how good it smells.

The computer's mouse is, unlike a real mouse, inedible.

I will stop trying to find the few remaining pieces of carpet in the house when I am about to throw up.

I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc.

I will not eat other animals' poop.

I will not lick my human's face after eating animal poop.

I will not eat my own vomit.

"Kitty box crunchies" are not food.

I will not eat any more socks and then re-deposit them in the backyard after processing.

The diaper pail is not a cookie jar. I will not eat the disposable diapers, especially the dirty ones.

I will not chew my human's toothbrush and not tell them.

I will not chew crayons or pens, specially not the red ones, or my people will think I am hemorrhaging.

When in the car, I will not insist on having the window rolled down when it's raining outside.

I will not drop soggy tennis balls in the underwear of someone who is sitting on the toilet.

We do not have a doorbell. I will not bark each time I hear one on TV.

I will not walk under the big dog when he is peeing.

I will not steal my Mom's underwear and dance all over the back yard with it.

The sofa is not a face towel. Neither are Mom & Dad's laps.

My head does not belong in the refrigerator.

I will not bite the officer's hand when he reaches in for Mom's driver's license and car registration.

I will not play tug-o'-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet.

I do not need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm lying under the coffee table.

I will not roll my toys behind the fridge.

The garbage collector is NOT stealing our stuff.

I must shake the rainwater out of my fur BEFORE entering the house.
:D

Excerpts from a Dog's diary:

8:00 am - OH BOY! DOG FOOD! MY FAVORITE!

9:30 am - OH BOY! A CAR RIDE! MY FAVORITE!

9:40 am - OH BOY! A WALK! MY FAVORITE!

10:30 am - OH BOY! A CAR RIDE! MY FAVORITE!

11:30 am - OH BOY! DOG FOOD! MY FAVORITE!

12:00 noon - OH BOY! THE KIDS! MY FAVORITE!

1:00 PM - OH BOY! THE YARD! MY FAVORITE!

1:30 PM - ooooooo. bath. bummer.

4:00 PM - OH BOY! THE KIDS! MY FAVORITE!

5:00 PM - OH BOY! DOG FOOD! MY FAVORITE!

5:30 PM - OH BOY! MOM! MY FAVORITE!


Excerpts from a Cat's diary

DAY 752 - My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre
little dangling objects. They dine lavishly on fresh
meat, while I am forced to eat dry cereal. The only
thing that keeps me going is the hope of escape, and
the mild satisfaction I get from ruining the
occasional piece of furniture. Tomorrow I may eat
another house plant.

DAY 761 - Today my attempt to kill my captors by
weaving around their feet while they were walking
almost succeeded, must try this at the top of the
stairs. In an attempt to disgust and repulse these
vile oppressors, I once again induced myself to vomit
on their favorite chair...must try this on their bed.

DAY 765 - Decapitated a mouse and brought them the
headless body, in attempt to make them aware of what I
am capable of, and to try to strike fear into their
hearts. They only cooed and condescended about what a
good little cat I was...Hmmm. Not working according to
plan.

DAY 768 - I am finally aware of how sadistic they are.
For no good reason I was chosen for the water torture.
This time however it included a burning foamy chemical
called "shampoo." What sick minds could invent such a
liquid? My only consolation is the piece of thumb
still stuck between my teeth.

DAY 771 - There was some sort of gathering of their
accomplices. I was placed in solitary throughout the
event. However, I could hear the noise. More
importantly I overheard that my confinement was due to
MY power of "allergies." Must learn what this is and
how to use it to my advantage.

DAY 774 - I am convinced the other captives are
flunkies and maybe snitches. The dog is routinely
released and seems more than happy to return. He is
obviously a half-wit. The bird on the other hand has
got to be an informant, and speaks with them
regularly. I am certain he reports my every move. Due
to his current placement in the metal room his safety
is assured. But I can wait; it is only a matter of
time......
:lol: Cats RULE!!!
