The Pet Thread

SW111 · 10-09-2024, 01:02 PM

We lost our whirly girl today. She used to twirl, spin and jump when she got up in the morning. We’ll miss her sleeping on the couch with her tongue hanging out. She was an old dog when we adopted her and was part of a bonded pair. She is with Leo and her first family. First Otis (see above) and now Roxy. What a crappy week.

So sorry for your loss - losing a pet is like losing a relative.

Dogs are family that’s for sure.

This is Leo. The most social cat we've ever had. He passed 2 years ago now. Thinking we should get a new feline friend but there's no replacing Leo.

We don't ever replace them, but there is that empty space that could fit another.

We welcomed the newest member to our family after our older lab passed away in May.

Kids are very excited as they've never experienced having a puppy before.

Meet Remington (Remi for short) - 10 weeks old and just shy of 14lbs. Very inquisitive guy, I think he's going to be fun.

My DW went to the organic pet store a few weeks ago, and got some "nose butter" for OCD psycho dog. I assume that it is some kind of moisturizer, but it apparently also contains peppermint oil. When she puts it on his nose, the peppermint must overwhelm his sense of smell because he stops going OCD trying to snort out some imaginary critter hiding under the couch in our living room.....

Gotta keep that doggy off the THC gummies.

Just got back from being out of the country. You'd think these turds would be a little more excited to see us.

As far as cats go, I'd guess that one to be quite excited to see you. Its looking at you (without malice) and is attentive in posture.

The dog on the other hand - I think he's pissed at you for leaving and he's studiously ignoring you so you understand his feelings and are more empathetic to them in the future.

Maynard · 10-30-2024, 04:12 PM

I was thinking that was the look that says kitty is now the boss.

My sisters dog used to give her the cold shoulder for days when she returned from a trip. Brussels Griffin
