But sorry, squirrel, I'm too distracted by that unbelievably adorable otter. So cute!

Growing list of things my dog is scared of:
The sounds of drink cans opening.
Squeaky toys.
My slippers when I'm not wearing them.
Her blanket when unfolded.
The kettle.
Tinsel.

Things she is not scared of when she probably should be:
Running head first into doors to express wanting them opened.
Drills.

My sister's dog lost his eye today.  Poor little pup.  I get to see him this upcoming Sunday.

Very upset, looks like Buster is going to have surgery to loose his eye It popped out and was scratched when the dogs got all excited in the back yard

My friend Amanda, who hosted the party, has three cats. One was anti-social and generally stayed away from everyone.



These are the other two :roll:

I slept there on an air mattress around 4:30AM, I woke up a little before 8 with the cat who's on the bottom there lying next to me and purring. It was a good start to 2015 :)

Why have one GSD when you can have ALL the GSD?

Also I posted it elsewhere, but here's the chinchilla. It's cute and stuff.

That video of the girl with the dogs is adorable. I feel like all kids that age need a pack of animals - they'll keep each other entertained and burn off some of that unending energy.

Also any kid that would pick on a girl who has 12 dogs is just asking for it.  :-P

Ha! The last time we tried a harness on Fuzz, she just kind of fell over and said "fuck you guys". Like she forgot how to move! Good luck!


I love that Percy is facepalming in the background. "Oh, god. Not the harness."   :roll:

My aunt told me the most horrible snakes-as-pets related stuff I've heard, which is that you should never ever put up kittens for free on websites like gumtree or craigslist. Not only because the go to irresponsible pet owners, but because they often end up as snake food :-(

You get used to having insects at home. Just make sure you use insects which can't reproduce at room temperature. There are types of crickets which need a higher than room temperature to breed. Same goes for grasshoppers.
At least leopard geckos love mealworms, but they're too fatty to be fed exclusively. And the geckos can't hunt them. That's the good thing about feeding crickets: You just throw a bunch of them into the terrarium, and the geckos will be busy for days.

In addition to leopard geckos (eublepharis macularis) we also have many crested geckos (rhacodactylus ciliatus), two rhacodactylus leachianus, and one very old phelsuma standingi. My mother is in a local organisation for reptiles, and thus has taken up a few geckos which have been brought in by shelters which didn't know how to care for them. The poor phelsuma is one of them. She's already several years above her life expectancy, and lived alone in a small terrarium. Now that she is in a larger terrarium she still doesn't leave an area roughly the size of her old one…

Poor sweetie, that's terrible. Crickets are great, for my toads (I kept fire belly toads (Bombina bombina) as a kid) we'd just run to the pet store about once or twice a week, get bag of hoppers and let the toads amuse themselves.

the bereavement team from the vets delivered his ashes the other day.
they're in a large maple wood box, about 8" L x 6" W x 6" deep.  very classy.
the vet included a framed large lock of fur w/eulogy statement.

Protector, Guardian.
Clown, Eater of cameras.
Beloved Buddy.
BEAR.

I remember a few years ago when we put Rusty to sleep. I didn't have any classes until the evening, and my dad and I drove him to the vet where it happened. When I got home, I opened the door and instinctively started to call out "Rusty!" before realizing...right. One of the hardest days in my life.

But I never lost the memories of the years I had with him, and those are what got me through it :)

yep.

what is odd: BEAR was my -in-laws' dog.
But he had such personality. 
there were several times that the only reason I went to the in-law's was to play with BEAR.

MY dog, LOVEY, is getting older.
And I think she can sense my sadness.

Rest in peace Lilly.  I will always remember rescuing you as a pup.  Getting home with you and laying on the floor.  You were so cold and sleepy so I put you on my back and covered you with a tiny blanket as I played on the xbox.  How when I played on the computer or wrote college papers and you would jump in my lap and find the tiny corner of available space on the chair and sleep.  When a lightning storm came and you were scared you find me there and curl up in that same corner of my chair and I'd feel you shaking with fright.  I would calmly pet you and you knew it would be alright.  Or if there wasn't space you bury yourself behind the computer and I'd pull you out and put you in your spot.  Although I have been out on my own for the past 6 years, I love you Lilly.  You will be missed.
