Oh yea, shes a piece of work! Only 10 months, so we have to remember that. Our last dog passed 2 years ago next month. He was a JRT/Pug mix. Had a lot of problems later in life though. Had a killer underbite! We miss him like crazy.
My #4 kitty thinks he’s a dog. Chews on cardboard boxes, digs in every crevice he can find, and the pompom-thing on the top of scratching posts? Yeah, pulled the stuffing out of each and every one of them.
Our kitties names are “Kitty and Doo”…don’t ask haha! This box here is called “Kitty’s Custom” he’s been working on it for his 3 years on the planet. We rescued all 3 pets over the past 3 years. I think we’re done for now!
What a tongue!
it’s all about those language skills
Any new pet pictures? There have been many excellent so far.
Here is Cat. Not really a pet but a stray that decided to stay this fall. She was around the neighborhood for a few weeks. Didn’t know if she was one of the neighbor’s or not. She “stole” a loaf of bread we had outside to feed the fish. Then she started getting in the bucket of fish food pellets for a nice snack. So she set up camp here. So also loves the other fish food - canned sweet corn.
It was very hard to find a shelter that would take her with some not ever replying or up to 6 months wait time. The last one in the area said we could take her there in a week. That gave us time to be able to touch her and eventually holding and carrying her. Thought she was 6-8 months old which they said was about right because she was 6 pounds. After looking at her teeth they determined she was 2 years old. No chip or collar but did have some ticks (it looks like one in her left ear in the pic but that is just a spot on the glass in the door I took pic thru).
Definitely makes me wonder how and why she ended up here.
Awwww, adopt her!! ![]()

That’s how I got my 4…
I got 3 more outside, 2 occasional visitors and one that looks suspiciously like yours.
I think she might be the former Mama Cat who was verrrrry pregnant, and I was already trying to figure out the logistics of how I’d keep her and however many kittens she’d have, but she upped and disappeared.
Now, a year or so later, this new cat started coming around, no kittens, so I’m at least hoping someone got her and kitties to a vet, got them adopted, and she’s just an indoor/outdoor cat.
She still runs when I open the door, but only 10ft away or so not clear out of the yard like actual ferals.
And now she turns up her nose up at the dryfood I keep out there for everyone (no flies in summer or frozen in winter as wetfood would be), and demands wetfood instead. Kfine, so I plop some on top.
So… go’head, adopt her!
Our dog clearly still doesn’t know her boundaries yet!
My daughter saying “we have an Easter kitty” a few weeks ago. Had to rescue him from this contraption.
He’s also very special…we like to think he has around 3 brain cells clanking around in his head haha!
And the two of them hanging in the closet. They like to hide in there and smack the dog from above when she annoys them.
I used to stop at a small human cemetery out in the country when I was riding my motorcycle and stretch my legs, have a snack etc… and it was a really serene and peaceful place. And after the Internet got to be I was able to find out what made one of the residents earn the nickname on the headstone. Motorcyclists like places like that, something I realized after talking with other friends.
I rode through a pet cemetery once after finding the human cemetery and just felt an overwhelming sense of sadness. I really get the concept, I just didn’t want to have anything to do with it. I do think fondly of the one beloved cat buried in our yard when I’m mowing the lawn, but the big cemetery (it was huge too) just felt completely different.
I have the exact opposite reaction.
Pet cemeteries to me are just peaceful, like a park with marker stones and headstones. You know that each and every critter there was buried with dignity, and love. Each person put enough love, thought, and money, into every little detail at the gravesite, by choice.
Hyu-mon cemeteries seem more discomforting. You know that quite many residents there are only given a burial there because it’s illegal to just put Uncle Kaz’s or Daddy Herman’s corpses out for collection on Garbage Day. And Aunt Millie is probably so soused and has a high enough alcohol content that just lighting her up would be an easy cremation, but that would probably be illegal, too. So, you don’t really have a choice but to bury them.
Interesting take. Don’t think I know of a pet cemetary ![]()
Also LOL
corpses out for collection on Garbage Day
Oh I know and totally agree with you. I think the feeling of sadness had something to do with my first pair of beloved cats getting older and knowing the day we said goodbye for now was closer than I wanted. It sure didn’t seem like it was that long between the vet telling us how to car for kittens and the “they’re getting older” talk.
We’ve always taken our critters for cremation to the Hartsdale Pet Cemetery in, well, Hartsdale. Nice place on a hill, and scenic.
My then-gf has a few of hers buried up there.
Lol! He looks right in the festive mood. ![]()
Labs are such great dogs!
Fine looking family members. Excellent photography.
It’s a boy!!
Yeah, the kitty I thought may have been Mama Cat come back… isn’t.
Normal food-run, kitty stuck around so gave “her” some treats, then I see"her" by the back door with a leg stuck straight up in the air, licking “herself”.
Ummm, bright neon pink against jet-black wool is a little too easy to notice.
So… yeah. She’s a he.
