Fun Stuff > CHATTER
We love our pets!

Yeah, we're about the same.
Rocko has gotten better about having his bi-weekly manicure. He used to nip, but he's definitely chilled out. I think he's figured out that the less he squirms and nibbles, the faster he gets back in his cage with his rewards snacks. We have no choice but to do his regularly or they grow like weeds and could curl and hurt his little paws. :-\
Fuzz, on the other hand....
Her claws are like little daggers if we don't keep up on them- and she's not afraid to use them. We have to clip her first or else she'll see us with Rocko and bolt. The we not only have to find her, we have to catch her after she's been found and then she's all riled up and obnoxious. Anyway. Clipping her first. Yeah. 2 of us can just barely get this done...she writhes and swings her feet around and makes gutteral noises and is just allllll sorts of unpleasant. Nick is a strong dude and sometimes she is just too much for him. He made the mistake of doing this shirtless. Once. And only once. Once she stops moving for a split second I can actually clip her claws pretty fast but she just absolutely hates being held.
It's terrible to say but sometimes when he's holding her up and she gets all "swingy" and ridiculous....sometimes I have to hold in a laugh because she looks so insane. And I feel terrible because Nick is SO annoyed with her by that point.

Her name's Bodhi. We adopted her from a shelter last summer, And she's about a year and a half old now. We were told she's a jack russel boxer mix, but I think she has some pit in her. She whines a lot at night. She loves to play keep away with the ball and is eager to please during training.
All we know is that her name used to be Shelley and her old family treated her well somewhere in Georgia.
I never thought I'd be one of those dog people, but I love my Bodhi-girl. She was already spayed (spade?) when we got her, so she ain't gonna be makin' no babies.
It's pronounced Boh-Dee.

Wait - is your surname Dracula or something?

My kitty lost one of her baby teeth - a fang - over the weekend. She hasn't been munching on her dry food much, so we've been feeding her the wet stuff.
And that's when we found out how gaseous she could be XP
