The QQ pet & critters thread...

Wow, they are beauties. Look at the white geni bottle pattern on the top 2!

Wanted to name top right Sven (aka; Svengoolie) due to the black goatee under the chin, but she turned out to be a she. So had to settle for Svenette. Assuming most of you know who Svengoolie is; otherwise Google it.

The Quad kittens; 3 months old. We took in stray mama in January; by early February we suspected (surprise !!). Born March 2. Fostered through local shelter so everything was paid for. We adopted mom and the kids and everyone is spayed/neutered now. So cute!

Kittens discovering the world is truly one of the greatest things to watch. Thank you for helping these kittens and their mama.

Picking this little fella up from the refuge next week. No name as yet, but Crumpet is a possibility. My partner won't allow Zep or Floyd

Looks like a Ringo. Lol

This was my Bernese Mountain Dog, Digby. Other than my cat Sushi, this is the sweetest animal ever. Such a big dog, but so timid and sweet. My ex got custody of Digby when we split up. But like Sushi's mom, Digby's mom would let me go to Baton Rouge and visit Digby. A few years after we broke up Digby was diagnosed with cancer. He underwent chemo. I was planning on going to see him a few weeks after he ended up passing.

The day he passed I was at the Museum of Art here in Houston. I was in the section of Far East art. I was looking at a statue of The Buddha. Sushi's mom was with me, and she is buddhist. She is Chinese, i am white, and although I relate to buddhism the most of all the religions, even though I was raised Catholic, I thought it was a cheesy white thing to do to actually convert. Well, I stared at this statue and just started crying. It was so bad Sharon (Sushi's mom) and I had to leave. The next morning I got an email from Lisa (Digby's mom) letting me know that she was in the back yard. Digby was playing, he walked up to her and lied down. He put his head in her lap and breathed her last. I was devastated. I asked Lisa what time Digby passed. She told me that it was around 3:30pm the day before. This was the exact time I broke down looking at The Buddha. I do believe, as cheesy as it sounds, that I somehow sensed Digby's passing.

I had the same sort of thing happen when my stepdad and especially when my younger brother passed two years ago. Pets are family. It stands to reason we would have that connection to them. If you believe in that thing. He was a beautiful dog. So, so lovable.

Whenever Lamar goes through the motion of "sharpening his claws" (he has no front claws) I call it; "sharpening his paws" lol

Be thankful you're not a mouse!

Very contemplative look on Lamar in this shot.

Is this even legal?

Having otters as pets should be illegal.

This little feral fella showed up out of nowhere looking hungry I already feed 3 feral cats outside but with the fireworks getting ready to start time to grab him to go inside he did not like it.
