Show Us Your Fur or Feathered Kids!

Sometimes we have to spell around the cats too! V - e - t, s - h - o - t - s, c - r - a - t - e.....
 

The cat and puppy have been slow and deliberate in getting to know each other, but they're getting more comfortable day by day. Yesterday they were lying pretty close to each other in the kitchen, and I pointed it out to my husband. He said we'd really know when the cat was relaxed if he lies on his back near the pup. Well, this morning it happened for the first time, took a quick pic before he moved.

Thanks Shalimar, the sooner they're good buddies like the cat was with Hans, the easier it is on all of us. :sentimental:
 
That's lovely SB. Years ago, when my first doggy joined the family the cat I had was disgusted at first, but over time the relationship settled down. Cat was top dog, doggy accepted cats superiority, and adored and respected him. Cat pretended he only tolerated dog, but it was quite clear he enjoyed the adulation.
 
Thanks so much Moonflight! :) Cats definitely dominate, lol! Today the pup too a couple of playful steps toward the cat and the cat growled...he stepped back. Then the cat slowly went over the low room divider we have to keep the dog in the kitchen, and the pup jumped up to play, wagging tail. When the cat walked toward him again, he backed away, still wagging. They'll be friends soon, and then the fun begins. :eek: :D
 
Awwww that's adorable. The cats were always the first residents here. Sophie took a few weeks, she got a spray of water in the snoot if she chased cats. She learned...Callie took a bit longer, " Hum if I sniff a cat's butt, my nose stings and there's this warm stuff, maybe I should sniff one more time...yup, nose like a checkerboard and more warm stuff". He still regresses sometimes and the cats always win.

This is my service dog Izzy Royal D'..... The first picture is of us two months ago in Colorado Springs. He won $30.00 at the casino in Los Vegus in September, until one of the employees told us dogs could not gamble in the casino. Next is Izzy this Halloween, the kids loved him.

Sea, 2&1/2 months ago I put up a 40'X40' fenced in area at my step-daughter's place for them. The red pitbull was my husband and Boo belonged to our son, so they are a bit rough now, and had started to knock me down. They were just missing their daddies. I loved them too much to just leave them to theirselves, and Pat can love and handle them. I could not bring myself to take them to a shelter.
 
I'm glad your step-daughter welcomed them for you Ina, and I'm so happy you didn't place them in a shelter. Kudos to Pat, she's very kind to take them. Hope you get to visit them sometimes, I bet although they miss their daddy, they love their momma too. :love_heart:
 
Sea, Pat loved her daddy and little brother, and when I asked her if she would think about taking Boo and Reba, she cried and thank me for letting her have them. She is a good daughter, I've been her mom since just before she turned two.
 
You're very lucky Ina for having Pat, she sounds like a good-hearted person, and I'm glad you can have peace of mind leaving your furkids with someone so welcoming. :love_heart:

This was Sophie and Frankenkitty. Explaining such a name for such a cute little cat. I was at the shelter when she was surrendered. I brought her home and came to find out why they were so anxious for me to take her. She had neurological disorders. She could use the litter box and feed herself from instinct. She could walk in a stumbling sort of way. But I had to bathe her daily and make sure she didn't fall down the stairs. She never purred but showed affection by falling asleep with you. Dear Frank passed from natural causes maybe two years later, but she was such a special kitty!
 
Beautiful babies Fureverywhere, so sorry you lost your Frank, you were an angel for taking her in. I've heard of a wobbling disease, it sounds like that was a similar condition. Thanks for sharing this special picture.
 
I'm afraid I'm not a fan of anthropomorphism. Neither I nor anyone I know has a "furkid", though many have pets. I don't have pets. I have livestock and although I look after them well, I have no emotional attachment to them. I prefer it that way.

Here is my favourite dog. He belongs to our friends and is called 'Archie'.

Here are my pigs. They do not have names but a herd number and are tagged 8, 9 and 10 for identification.
