NWR: Pets!

We spend so much time on here reading about other people and trying to figure out who we all are, but what about our pets? Our beloved furry, scaley, slithery, slimy, and feathery creatures who are part of the family are part of who we are. So why not share another side of us by sharing about our pets!
------------------------------------------------
FH adopted Milo (the stinky black & white fuzzball) about 2 months before we started dating and he's been in the family since. Poor little guy was about 4 months old and the vet estimated that he had been out on the street for about 2 months by the time he was found.

Favorite Snack: baby carrots
Favorite Place to sleep: mommy & daddy's bed
Favorite Toy: stuffed chicken
Favorite Thing to Shred: socks
Cutest Feature: crooked underbite

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I adopted Dr.No (yes, as in James Bond villain) a little over a year ago as a kitten. He had been thrown out in a suitcase, along with 7 other cats, from the projects.

Favorite Snack: Iams krunchies
Favorite Place to sleep: wherever he can best get in the way
Favorite Toy: catnip mice
Favorite Thing to Shred: cardboard
Cutest Feature: curly tummy fur

Re: NWR: Pets!

Our little furbaby is Dexter (names after the serial killer cop on Showtime ).

FH called me up one day and said 'How would you like to have a cat?' One of the tentants in the building he was working at had a litter, already fixed and shots given, and was trying to get rid of them. So FH snagged this cutie pie up and bought him home. He's been tearing up the place ever since LOL. There are plenty of times when he is calm and friendly but he gets these moments when he just likes to run laps around the apartment and just gets stir crazy and I don't know what to do.

One fo the cutest things he does though, is while FH is playing video games he will actually jump up on his shoulders and just lay there while he plays. He could be laying for there for a good hour if FH lets him, which he usually does.

Re: NWR: Pets!

I LOVE the pet thread. I'm sure people are sick of seeing this photo, but it's my favorite. I should take some new ones, but she's such a pain! LOL

This is my lovely Lexie. I adopted her from the BRooklyn ANimal Foster Network in my junior year of college as a little furball who fit in my palm. She's 3 now, and I love her to pieces.

Favorite snacks: Provolone cheese, white cheddar cheez-its and McDonald's french fries.

Re: NWR: Pets!

very cute pix!!!

We have 2 cats...Here's their story:
When I lived with my parents, we had a cat (since I was in 4th grade). We had to put her to sleep and things got lonely without her around. One day, I noticed this cute cat hanging out by our back door. I decided to feed her and she was pretty friendly, but didn't get too close. She kept coming around and I kept feeding her. Every time, she was insanely hungry, so we figured she was a stray cat. Eventually she became our outdoor pet. I went on vacation with my family and when we came back, she was looking a little round - my sister thought she was pregnant...a few weeks later, she disappeared for a few days and came back really skinny. My dad searched around our yard and found 4 kittens - soooo cute. We rescued them and I decided to keep 2. My parents still take care of the mother cat & got her spayed so she won't have any more!

I named them before I new what sex they were and the names just kind of stuck, so we have Jack (even tho she's a girl, we just say its short for Jackie) and Lilly (luckily she's a girl, so that one fit)


Favorite Snack: when making my sandwich for lunch, I give them each a lil piece of turkey...they know the routine - as soon as they see me standing by the island, they come running

Favorite Place to sleep: Lilly sleeps on my chest every night - very cute, but can get annoying. Jack has a lil bed that she likes. During the day, Lilly sleeps under our bed and Jack sleeps on the big chair in the living room

Favorite Toy: Jack plays fetch (not normal) and has this stick that I don't know if she can live with out. Lilly has a little heart that fell off a teddy bear that FH gave me

Favorite Thing to Shred: they're really good and only use their scratching post - thank goodness

Cutest Feature: lilly is really symmetrical, except for this patch she has on her right front paw/leg area. Jack has this orange patch on her chin that is so cute

haa this is sooooo long - im obviously obsessed and bored

this is from the first night we brought them in the house - their noses are dirty from being outside

Re: NWR: Pets!

Jake - is my brother from another mother!!! He is a (almost) 5 year old Yellow Lab. My parents and I picked up up from a breeder out on LI. My mom named him Jake but I gave him his AKC name, Sweet Valentine Jake since he was born in Feb.

Fav snacks - Dunkin Donut Bagels, Carrots, Boars head cold cuts (my dad works for them), and any kind of bread!!!!!
Favorite Place to sleep: couch - which is shown in the pics lol
Favorite Toy: squaky slipper and his red ball
Favorite Thing to Shred: towels
Cutest Feature: he actually smiles - and his yellow/gold eye lashes

The last picture is the day we brought him home - and the pic at the beach was from this past weekend!!! He's a f'n horse now lol

Re: NWR: Pets!

Awww, love all the pics!

Goober is a little over 7 months, he's a cocker/poodle mix. I love his dopey, befuddled expression and his crazy bed hair. He is our troublemaker - his poodle genes allow him to jump like a deer and he loves scaling things. What I love about him the most is that he is all sweetness, you can't stay mad at him. LOVES to cuddle and will plop on his side as soon as you pet him. FH says I baby him!

Nutley is a pom and he's our gentleman. Lol, he's kind of a wuss and scared of a bunch of things. He's picky with what he eats, more independent, won't go outside in the rain and hates it when we leave him at home. He's our first child and a loveable puffball! He loves to lick toes and hides in the closet if there's a thunderstorm.

Re: NWR: Pets!

We have a Shitzu, her name is Izzy and she is the lightof our lives. We lived in an apoartment when we got her, the complex didn't allow dogs so we had to hide her and drop her off at my parents house every day. It was annoying, but she was so worth it. We live in a condo now and she loves being there. I think she misses my parents dog though, evertime we say her name she gets very excited. Next week is her first birthday.

Favorite Snack: cheese
Favorite Place to sleep: on anything soft
Favorite Toy: a stuffed pig that oinks
Favorite Thing to do: bite her daddy
Cutest Feature: her eyes

Re: NWR: Pets!

When i saw this thread, I got soooo excited!

My dog's name is Abby and she is my LIFE. I never really had a pet before her so I treat her like my child, and to me, she is my child. She'll be 13 in May. She was almost put to sleep by the breeder we got her from because she wasn't in 'Show Condition', i.e. her tail curls, she's the runt of her litter, etc. But my family didn't care, because we weren't going to show her. But what sealed the deal was when she jumped into my sister's bag as if she was ready to leave.

Favorite Snacks- Any kind of cheese, cheese doodles, bananas, pretty much anything..
Favorite Place to sleep: Well, it used to be my bed, but my dad got her a new doggie bed that's super duper thick and plushy, and now sleeps there.
Favorite Toy: Empty Soda Bottles
Favorite Thing to Shred: She never did shred anything.
Cutest Feature: the noises she makes when she's trying to get your attention. And when that doesn't work, she pushes you with her paw.

Recipes for puppy treats - I haven't made them, but quickly looked and I don't see anything harmful to puppy. The apple one looks quite good, actually (maybe I'll even try tasting it )
