Pets of the Playground

[Gem Flower]

Personally, I love animals. I have two lovely kitties, but I am interested to know of the other animals that roam the Playground. What pets do YOU have?

[Morty]

My family has bought a dog recently, namely a 3,5 months old German Pointer Breed. I objected to this, but now I have to say that he's nice, even if there's a bit of trouble with him. I'd post pictures if I had any.

[Athaniar]

I also love animals, except for earwigs. They are my arch enemies! I have a 1½-year old birman cat named Felix.

[Mr. Mud]

About 2 years ago, my family bought a dog, Named "Fluffy" who is the biggest dog I've seen ion my life... she is 3/4 poodle, and 1/4 lab... Its called a Labradoodle (which rolls off the tounge :smallbiggrin:)

I also have a tabby named howie who is... muscular... I never thought a cat could be muscular, but his shoulder blades are poppin out of his back...

I also have 2 pet ferrets, named Achilles, and Peeves :biggrin: (PEeves? Pet Peeves?)

[Ego Slayer]

Currently my family owns three puppies, a cat, a guinea pig and chickens.

At least the puppies aren't bent on eating the cat. :smalltongue:

[mangosta71]

My family has the most beautiful calico cat I've ever seen. She's a lot sweeter now than she used to be - she was found as a kitten in a dumpster and passed to my brother and then on to my parents, so she was a hardcore street cat. But I rarely get bitten or scratched now.

[Eldan]

Hmmm...
I currently have an old and toothless Silver Shadow Persian Cat called Ricco (not my decision. Was named like that by the breeder, before he decided the cat didn't look good enough)
Then two rats.
I used to tons of guinea pigs over the years when I was younger, but that's over now.

[randman22222]

One spastic miniature Schnauzer that rocks your socks. We had an Indian Ring-Necked Green Parrot that wanted to take over the world by killing everything in its sight, but we gave that demented thing to someone else. (I feel sorry for the recipient.)

Too bad, because before, way back when I was little, I had the most awesome cockatiel ever. :smallfrown:

[Don the Bastard]

This is my little gentleman, Duke, he is a mongrel, but I love him.

I love mah pets.

[Lord Tataraus]

I love cats, I have three of them currently - Quince, Goldy, and Abby. Quince is a stray who we brought in, Goldy is a Gold Ocecat and Abby is a Norwegian Forest Cat. Four other cats have passed on in my lifetime, Quooter, Tri, Hi and Yi - they were all strays.

[d'Bwobsling]

I have a labrador retreiver who's missing his left back leg. He can still run and walk fine, but whenever he pees he falls down:smallbiggrin:
I'm not serious

Gwah! Demon pets! j/k

I got 3 cats.

One is 55% black 45% white named Kenny. The oldest of our cats he pretty much doesn't give a crap about anything.

The other is about 65% Black and 35% white. She's pretty much the size of a basketball at this point and going bald.

My last cat is almost pure black except for 6 or 7 white hairs on his chest. He's named Beavis.

Heh, I've got a photo of our dog that looks like it's possessed or something. Unfortunately, I lost the chip it's on, and my camera broke down.

[Moff Chumley]

I gots me two Guinea Pigs. :smallbiggrin:

[TwoBitWriter]

As I am still currently living in an apartment, I only have one cat. Eventually I hope to get one Boxer and one Black Labrador (my favorite dog breeds!)

[de-trick]

well i got my 2 puppies Copper and Todd both rot/ and lab mix

and my old cat Baby

[Gem Flower]

My kitten sleeps in the stupidest places. Like in flower pots, on my dad's head, in the middle of the kitchen, on the stairs, the list goes on. Is my poor little kitten alone with this habit?

[Kai]

This is River, our 9 week old black lab...

Nope. My cat will sprawl out in the middle of the floor, too. Or on the back of the couch, window sill, the book I'm trying to read...

[draco567]

The family cats, Porcia and Drache. They are Bengal cats, are are quite lovely. They do however hate to be picked up. Porcia is spotted, while Drache is marbled.

My own dog, Magnor. A Year and a half old Welsh Pembroke Corgi. Magnor is a tri color, being mostly black. He does have brow "eyebrows" and white "socks".

[SilentNight]

@serp:That has to be one of the most adorable cats I have ever seen. :smallbiggrin:

I've got two cats, one of whom is older than me. And a street rescue dog who is part german shepard.

Cats sleep anywhere, any table, any chair.
Top of piano, window-ledge, in the middle, on the edge.
Open draw, empty shoe, anybody's lap will do.
Fitted in a cardboard box, in the cupboard with your frocks.
Anywhere! They don't care! Cats sleep anywhere.

[wxdruid]

I have two cats, Kenja (grey and white) and Jessie

http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i262/wxdruid/DSC03430.jpg

We also have one black dwarf hamster, some sea monkeys and we did shelter some tadpoles for a while. They all turned into frogs and we released them back into the ditch. There were about 40 frogs by the time we were done.

[YPU]

We have a fell terrier, was sort of a souvenir from England. We stayed a week at a farm where they also happened to have a nest of puppies for sale, we could not resists the cuteness.
On a side note, I am not sure she is a dog tough, she makes various cat sounds all the time and sleeps on top of the back of the couch, stretched out like a cat. Another playgrounder was perfectly sure she is a gremlin rather then a dog/cat. She is getting quite old, with the accompanying general illnesses and a new puppy like behaviour. All very cute of course.

[ColonelFuster]

This is my little ickle kitten, Chaotie, who was lost on a previous thread I made called "D&D" pet names, but is now revived, with a PICTURE. She is named Chaotie because she is CHAOTIc Evil.

[ForzaFiori]

I've had 9 cats in my life, almost all named based on what they look like (were uncreative like that). we had Grey cat, White foot*, Pink nose and Brown nose* (Twins, they're noses eventually both went pink), supergnat, Cow, brown foot, Zokay, and Tiger*. the asterisks mark the ones we still have, and brown nose is now called Twin, because the other one is no longer with us.

I'll post pictures eventually.

Oh. My. GOD! Your kitten is going to take over the world with evil cuteness.:smallbiggrin:

[Ilena]

Well, we have 2 cats, both orange, Kitty, and Boo, (i named boo i have no idea how she accually got that name, but i think it had to do with when we had an apartment she would climb half way up walls ....) then 2 dogs, a golden retrever named abby, and a black retrever named kelly, then (whom i dont really call pets but ill include) 3 horses, Elvis, a 24 year old bay, Dikota, a 6 year old appy (brown and white), and troi, Dikotas 5 year old sister who is chocolate brown,

[Sneak]

I have two cats, Dexterity and Caspian. Dexy is a loveable rogue, whilst Cassie is an idiosyncratic lapcat. According to the rescue-cat lady I got them from, they're brothers, but I doubt it, seeing as Cassie looks exactly like a Russian blue, while Dexy is just an average (but exceedingly cute) tabby.

I love mah kitties. Will post pictures later.

[Gem Flower]

Whoa...
YOU HAVE A TURKEY???

[nothingclever]

I have 2 black cats that are brother and sister. I've had them for several years now and they are very affectionate. They beg me to pet them constantly each day. I've trained both of them to hop on the kitchen table to receive some attention whenever I go to the refrigerator to get something. Sometimes they just like to lie next to me for hours.

[Vibrant]

Two cats...Harrison, 5 year old silver and white tabby...and Tika, 2 year old orange tabby. (Tika is currently AWOL, we think she snuck out while DH was putting out the trash. :smalleek::smalleek::smalleek: )

Also one horse, my baby: Twinks, 3 year old double-registered National Show Horse/Pinto, too gorgeous for words and my greatest pride and joy next to my actual kids. :smalltongue:

[Vaynor]

Whoa...
YOU HAVE A TURKEY???

Yup, and he's awesome. (kinda stinky though)

[Gem Flower]

Currently cuddling with my very fluffy kitten. I love my cats.:smallsmile:

[Thes Hunter]

Currently my family owns three puppies, a cat, a guinea pig and chickens.

At least the puppies aren't bent on eating the cat. :smalltongue:

Why do the chickens and the guinea pig on a mission to sautee the kitty?

[Mauve Shirt]

A Rhodesian ridgeback, 3rd in a line of ridgebacks, named Ralph.
An African Grey parrot named Cyrus, who can hold phone conversations with himself.
And I used to have 6 fish, but they all died. Several incarnations of them died. Then we gave up on fish completely.

My sister has a gecko named Torque.
My mom has a horse named Moonie.
And my father has a motorcycle named Bluzuki.

[Castaras]

Used to have a black and white shorthair mogcat.

Cleo was awesome...savage, senile, and dumb, but awesome...

Hopefully we'll be getting another cat after the school holidays. ^.^

[randman22222]

<snip>
Cleo was awesome...savage, senile, and dumb, but awesome...
<snip>

Synchronicity. Our Indian Green Ring-Neck Parrot that was savage, dumb, and wanted to take over the world was also named Cleo.

...I had a flipping nightmare about that demented bird... :smallconfused::smalleek:

[BizzaroStormy]

Reminds me of a parrot I got for 80% off at a pet store because it yelled racial slurs at people.

[Agamid]

right now?

I have...
1 adult female central bearded dragon - Avarice
1 juvenile male central bearded dragon - Lucien
3 juvenile central bearded dragons of undetermined sexes - Kali, Trogdor and Krishna (i think kali is a boy and Trog a girl though)
1 adult female eastern bearded dragon (my old grandma one just died :smallfrown: ) - Clytemnestra
2 adult frill-necked dragons (i think i have a pair) - Chris and Reneas
1 adult female Coastal Carpet Python - Sassy
2 adult female rats (though my friend's rat Dru spends at least 70% of her time at my house) - Pickles and Jane
About a thousand mealworms
A few dozen roaches

I might be getting another snake soon too... and i really want some geckos.
And hopefully my central beardies and frillies will give me some babies this coming spring.

[Last_resort_33]

Not nearly as impressive as ^ but,

3 Female Leopard Geckos, Tasslehof, Gustav and Imotep
1 Corn Snake, Kellogs
5 giant African Land Snails, Tom, **** (Harry died), Mary, Jane and Sue
1 Cat, Froggy

[d'Bwobsling]

I have a gold fish who just turned 9

[truemane]

We have many pets. Too many, probably.

We have three cats. One of them, Edgar, is black and white with a sort-of batman mask. He smells funny, and is about as smart as a pile of bricks. He's also madly in love with me. Seriously. Like madly in love with me like a human might be. It's kind of scary.

We have a small grey cat named Maia who's a serious psycho-freah-show-of-doom. She loves my wife and sleeps on us every night. ON US. At least one of us. Every night. And she's mouthy. She never shuts up.

And we have a BIG FAT tabby cat who's about as interesting as paint. He's nice enough, but he's very bland. His name is PC, which stands for P*ssy Cat (you see how clever we are).

Here he is doing his Camoflauge Cat Routine:

http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f85/truemane/pc-sized.jpg

We also have two rats. They are both very sweet, and very smart. They are named Willow and Little Mim. Mim spends a lot of time kicking it on my shoulders while I'm writing or cleaning or walking around. They never stand still long enough for me to get a picture, but here's the best I have:


http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f85/truemane/rats-sized.jpg


AND we have a Lory. A Green Naped Lory named Mr. Fuzzy. He's supposed to be my son's bird, but because I'm the one who feeds him he thinks I'm his Daddy. Or his mate. Or his personal chef. Or whatever. He follows me around and squawks for me when I leave the room. When Mim the rat isn't on my shoulder, he usually is. He's a funny little guy. REALLY smart. He says his name, "up-up" and "come here" and does a few whistles and makes kissy noises.


http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f85/truemane/bird-sized.jpg


He's actually a lot fatter now than he was when we took this picture. I don't think he could fly now even if his wings weren't clipped.

AND lastly but certainly not leastly, we have a brand new puppy named Molly. She's a real sweetheart. Eager to please. Friendly. Smart. She's going to be a really good dog. I'm a big fan of her radar-ears.


http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f85/truemane/molly-sized.jpg


And that's it.

[Cristo Meyers]

Ah, the great Fingerbane revealed!

I miss having dogs around, but the Lady is scared to death of them...all of them...without exception.

We'd get a cat, but stranding the poor thing in the apartment would drive it crazy...and there's only room for one crazy being in the apartment and I've filled that role quite well, thank you very much.

[Trog]

*snip*
3 juvenile central bearded dragons of undetermined sexes - Kali, Trogdor and Krishna (i think kali is a boy and Trog a girl though)
*snip*

Anyone ever comment about poor Trogdor... with the arm... sticking out of her neck there...

[Dallas-Dakota]

No pets.

Well, I do, if my brother counts. :smalltongue:

[Ilena]

I have a few pictures of my horses, for some reason it doesnt want to link properly so heres the sites, the bay (dark brown with black main and tail is Elvis, and the appy is Dikota.

Wow...there are a lot of cats around here. I really wish I could bring one of my cats to college, I could use the stress relief. Plus my cats always miss me and run up to me when I finally get home, I hate leaving them :smallfrown:

We have but a single cat (I can tell you right now it would be a lot more if it was up to me), though we used to have a beagle and a different cat until we moved to New Zealand. Funny, I am sure we have taken absolutely loads of pictures of the darn thing, yet it took me ages just to find one. Oh well. Here is Tails:

[Lupy]

My mom has Gorden Setter named "Champion Robhill's Dances With Quail" (He just got his championship last week :smallbiggrin: Oh, and we call him Bear.)

I have a 3 year old Zebra Danio.

Then there is my budgerigar "Peregrin" (or "Pippin"), who is the biggest ham ever. He says my name sometimes, and hello, less often, and he whistles. He also does little flips on his ladder by going to the top rung and curving his body around the rung, grabbing on with his beak, and then pulling himself up. He also can play soccer by rolling a tiny whiffle ball between two pegs to score. He liks to stop me from doing it by pecking my hand and the ball indiscriminately when I get too close to his goal. :smalltongue:

Photos soon to come.

I have three dogs and a cat. =]

My eldest dog is named Doll. She will be eleven in october. we had her since she was a puppy so yeah i was five. but she is getting old so shes very mellow and sweet :smallsmile:

Then I have my dog Ashke, who will be two in september. So it seems like he was a puppy just yesterday! but he has a fear disorder and he'll attack anyone out of fear =/ so nobody can be around him and he limits who and when people can come over. he's also an arrogant little thing and he argues with me quite often
as a baby:

http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b154/hjustine13/000_4249.jpg

[Kool-Aid]

Let's see...

Past pets:
3 gold fish: goldy (who lived for 3-4 years and a won in a raffle), goldina, goldy again (who I believed to be the original even though I accidentally killed him while trying to scale my dresser, I thought he was a magic fish even though my parents told me they bought him) and kit-fisto. I also had what we called an algae eater named algae (al-gee ah) Hooray for originality.

2 Hamsters, Hamtaro (orange and white) and then a couple years after, a black bear named oreo, (white on the belly) they didn't live long, only a few weeks.

I had a cat named Needles that my uncle gave me (I hated that cat) who had three kittens, two females named Cuddles and I honestly can't remember the other's name and a male named fluffy, who I gave to my grandma and is now HUGE (not just fat but long too, like can reach the table long, also renamed trouble.)

I had to give away the mother and "kitten whose name escapes me" to the humane society, because it turned out I was allergic to cats, although I have no problems now. It was heartbreaking for a young child to give away his little friends, because my parents wouldn't let me have a dog.

Although I do now have 2 dogs a 3 year-old chihuahua mixed with something (rat terrier maybe? They told us he was purebred, at least we got him half price :smallbiggrin: ) and more recently a 4 month old (I think) purebred chihuahua. The male Frisco is tri colored and Daisy, the female is white with tan on her face and a few spots, including a diamond on her head.

Frisco reminds me of myself, and I've heard he looks like me. He's the one who is always barking at the mailman and goes after anyone he doesn't recognize, he's a bit of a loner but is very friendly when he gets to know you. He's always with my parents, and is now friends with Daisy.

Daisy is alot more friendly, but always does what Frisco does, she's hyper-active, even for a puppy and she likes messing with Frisco, enjoys nibbling ear-lobes. She's more of MY dog always following me and sitting in my lap as I type.
