Do you have a special little pet?

[byzantine catholic]

Dog? Cat? Fish?:)

[NCRedState]

Look up, and to the left.

She listens better than the kids ever did.

That's why we got her, told the kids we replaced them, just in case they thought of coming back. :lol:

I have a special pet, but it's not little and it goes wherever I do.

[hatman]

A cat showed up at my back door 12 years ago and made me his pet.
He refuses to leave.

[byzantine catholic]

My Chihuahua:lol:

[LouC]

I have a fluffy gray lightening streak that flashes up and down the hallway, only briefly pausing for a quick ankle attack before it is gone again, it is rumored to be a male kitty approximately 1 year old by the name of Mouki.

[angelicmadrigal]

I have a cat. Her name is Jiji, and she is EVIL. I also have several feral cats living by my house that I feed and am trying to catch to go get them spayed neutered, but i have to wait until my dad is done witht he live trap, he's catching raccons. :( I have two cats at my dad's house too, but they cat like dogs, named Nini and Blue Girl. I want a dwarf rabbit and another kitty, but the boyfriend says no....:(

[khigh]

I had a German Shepherd named Wrangler, but he killed himself. Now, I have a frog, a turtle, 5 fish, and 17 sugar gliders. Next June or July, my new Shepherds are coming back from Germany after their year of training. They are 14 weeks old now and one is going to be my new SAR (Search and Rescue- live find) dog and the other is my new protection/decomp dog (Decomp-SAR, but for the deceased). Their names are Liberty and Justice and should weigh in at 135lbs full grown.

Both are direct decendents of my Wrangler (Great grandchildren).

Dwarf rabbit?

We have garage cats, about 14 that are from 1 year of age to 7 years.

So far this year we only had two kittens survive the spring and summer birthing, which makes them kitties number 15 and 16.

They are pests and turn their noses up at the dry food we put out for them, they want table scraps.

I try not to get to familiar with them.

[angelicmadrigal]

Dwarf rabbit?

Yeah dwarf rabbits, they are mini version of regular sized rabbits. We wre talking last year about getting one for our class pet.

[merickson]

Spike is a Yellow Lab.
"Pet" - yes.
"Special" - he's the third best dog the world has ever known.
"Little" - not so much. 67 lb. is about right for a dog, but not little.

[jimjames418]

Yes, I have a very special cat. Her name is Kitty. I know very original right?

However she is special because she saved my life when I had my first heart attack. She sat on the foot of the bed and, I was told, raised enough noise to wake the dead. The EMT guy said I was lucky, another 15 minutes and I would not have made. There was a 95% blockage of my heart.

My wife found her in the parking lot at the grocery store. Kids were running over a paper sack with their bikes. When it moved my wife saw some kittens in the sack and she ran the kids off. Only one kitten was still alive and it was so young its eyes were not open.

I have a "dwarf" rabbit you can have. :evil:

6 years ago my daughter was visiting my parents for the weekend. My mom called me and said my daughter fell in love with their "little" dwarf bunny. She asked if she could send it home to us. My first question was why didn't they want it. My mom said they just didn't have the time to care for it properly and thought the bunny would have it better at our house. "Oh, and she's just a dwarf bunny so she is really tiny and doesn't stink at all!"

Yeah.....that damn bunny is now 20 pounds and stinks to high heaven and does nothing but sit in her cage and chews everything in sight when you let her out.

I hate the bunny. I was duped. I found out afterward that they wanted to get rid of the bunny because she chewed through the laptop cords.

I'll ship you this damn bunny for free. Hell, I'll pay YOU to take this damn bunny.

Dwarf bunny my ass. Mutant, giant bunny from hell! I hate caged animals. They're worthless.

I'll bet that the person who sold the rabbit just called it a dwarf and it was really the runt of the litter.

[NascarGirl2448]

I have several special pets. I have 3 cats, a spoiled rotten dog, a horse (had 2 but we had put one of them down a few days ago) and a goldfish.

[angelicmadrigal]

I'll bet that the person who sold the rabbit just called it a dwarf and it was really the runt of the litter.

That sounds likely. I used to raise rabbits when I was a kid and I only had ONE rabbit ever get that large.

[Army Wife]

We have Winston the fat head dog who is now over 70 pounds and thinks he still fits on the foot rest of the recliner. He is the biggest goof ever...he at this moment trying to catch a fly that has been dive bombing him all night and its a riot to watch...not sure what he would do if he caught the stupid thing.

[Safiel]

Jack Russell Terrier that is an absolute fruit cake. Probably the energy level of three pit bulls packed into one little 15 pound dog. Can't use a flash light in her vicinity. If she sees a flash light, she will attack it until you play "chase the light" with her. At night, she insists on crawling UNDER the covers and sleeping down at the foot of the bed. Of course, she is spoiled rotten.

[Claymore]

StumpyButt... :))

Before she adopted us, she was hanging around the casino and lost her tail, leaving a 1 inch stump.

How does a German Shepherd go about killing himself? :eh:

[jimjames418]

They catch the car they are chasing. ;)

[khigh]

How does a German Shepherd go about killing himself? :eh:

He had extreme separation anxiety and the first time I ever left him home for more than 2 hours by himself (he went with me to work, to the store, doctor's office- everywhere. Wrangler was a certified therapy dog and 2 weeks from being a SAR dog- orange vest= go everywhere), he chewed open a bottle of bleach and drank half of it- not before he ate through 2 doors and a half a wall of sheet rock. When they did the necropsy (animal version of an autopsy), they found a half pound of sheet rock in his stomach and about 5 cups of bleach.

Now, his ashes are spread over the refuge so he can chase buffalo and longhorn all day.

If anyone is wanted a German Shepherd, they are known as much for their separation anxiety as they are hip dysplasia. Very attached dogs.

Dad took pity and brought it home and kept it for a year or so.......
It liked EVERYBODY but GRANDPA NEWBURY!!!

I do,three toy poodles.

[IndRedhead]

Miss Shatzi, whom is sitting next to me licking her paw ... and the keyboard... is a 12month old rottweiler... while the vet says she is "small" nothing that weighs 97lbs... and bolts through the house sliding across the area rug into either the coffee table, sliding glass door, or heaven forbid you is "small".. :) aside from being a tad (understatment) bit hyper she's quite the Loverdor.. :)

[Gabby]

I have a border collie (she's my avatar) and a newfoundlander. They are my constant companions...

Like someone else said... they listen a lot better than my kids ever did. :)

[Wookinstien]

I have a Katie....

She is my Co-pilot of the Tv station.

[Samm]

They catch the car they are chasing. ;)

Only if they chase it as it is coming at them...

When I was a kid we had a German Shepherd that chased motorcycles... and I do mean motorcycles, not the rider. One day she caught one and bit the rear tire. It pulled her mouth up into the fender. She never chased another one. ;)

Gad, that is nasty... what a horrible way to die. Yeah, German Shepherds can be extremely tied to one person and go through all sorts of anguish when separated from them.

[BrittleBullet]

I had a potbellied pig up until a few days ago. My wife and I had to adopt him out unfortunately.

[badkarma]

I have an all black cat named Dog. if you ever decide to adopt a cat, you may want to consider a black one; apparently most people don't want them for whatever reasons. When we got Dog, the shelter lady was pretty surprised that we would take a black cat, especially around the fall. They had him in a little cage in a trailer behind the actual shelter which was filled with nothing but black cats in little cages. They didn't even bother to keep them in the main shelter because it was pretty crowded and no one would want the black ones anyway.

ETA: oh, and just in the past few days I have been trying to convince my wife that we want a couple of rats. So far she isn't buying the idea though heh.

[snagswolf]

Do you have a special little pet?
If you're using 'special' in the same way as the 'Special Olympics', then yes, I have one of those.

We have a one-year old lab/water spaniel ... She looks like a smart dog... must be the water spaniel influence. ;)

[Joeybear23]

1 Dog, 1 Bull, 1 Betta, 12 Goldfish (in the stock tanks), and I keep my friend's horse on my land...

Having been owned by Rats for the last 5+ years just know they can be very expensive when taken to the vet. You need to make sure your reg. vet can care for exotics as the illnesses, abscesses, tumors etc. rats get can be a challenged to overcome. They also need to be kept in pairs as they are VERY social animals. Something as little as a cold can kill them quickly. Just be sure to do a lot of research before you buy.

[snagswolf]

That must be pretty cool to have a pet seal... does he get along well with the pug? :D

She's giving me her 'I'm being good' look.

Nice! The smart ones are the ones you have to keep your eyes on. My 'seal' above knows what she's not allowed to do, so she just waits until someone isn't watching her before she does it.

The pug just does whatever he wants, whenever he wants. And just sits there looking stupid when you yell at him.

Love threads about pets....I have 2 horses, 2 dogs ( a pitbull and a Doberon ) a cat , a greenwinged macaw, 4 fancy rats, 2 koi and too many to count Comets.

I discovered the fish in my pond this spring, don't know how they got there...but the Koi are about 12 inches long....

I board horses here for retraining and have a mustang here right now that I have been re training. He was really mishandled after adopted through BLM and became rather aggressive towards people. He is doing great now.

Well, all of my critters are special ....couldn't live without them....

Guy's,

I don't understand weather this question is required ? Any way if you are asked than i give you an answer for that.

Yes, I have a little pet, it name is pummy and its my small puppy. It is just 6 month old. I like very much.

[odg]

We have a Pug named Emmett.
Pugs are not the smartest dogs they have a very stubborn attitude and pretty much do what they want. Like stay in his bed all day. Everytime you go near him he rolls over on his back so you can rub his tummy. But he is the absolute love of our life.

[Gaetano "Tommy" Lucchese]

Tommy, do you really have a pack o' pits...LOL they are awesome dogs, I have one a black brindle....he is a weenie.....he was rescued in Detroit ( a crack house ) and has some issues.....( very fearful of gunshots, fireworks ) but he is a sweetheart.

My Doberon , on the other hand is a hard ass....very protective but extremely obedient.....she is awesome.

The two together are very intimidating . I live in a rural area yet we are near a major highway, there has been an increase in crimes here as of late, the dogs are really great at alarming at anything out of the norm....makes me feel a bit safer anyway.

So, how many pitbulls do you have ?

Four. Three Chinamen and a run of the mill fawn.

They're not actually mine, they're my roommate's (he's a professional dog trainer).

I would feel bad for anyone who tried to break into my house.
