Gushing about pets/animals thread
Hi all, so I thought I might start a thread for talking about pets/animals we love because spending time around animals is one of the sure-fire things that make me feel better even when I'm in a very bad state and I think all animals are lovely, even untraditional ones like rats and reptiles.
I have two cats, Cookie and Coco. They are old kitties (11 and 10) but they're still very playful and cheeky. I would say that in their old age they might have even become cheekier just because they don't care as much, haha. Cookie loves sleeping in beds and boxes, having a lovely scritch on her cheeks and licking up toothpaste foam (it's super weird, haha). Coco loves to steal food off tables and scratch up couches. He's very round like a malteser.
I also love dogs, especially staffies and kelpies. I love snakes and crows as well.
I would love for you all to tell me about your pets and the animals you love
@DirtWitchsuch a good idea for a post!
I have a little Pug called Mochi!
She's only 7 months old and she's so adorable (but very naughty!)
She's constantly being cheeky!
this is an old pic of sid because I don't have many on my laptop also they're really crap at taking photos 😞
and this one is Bailee I'll try and find a better one though, this is what I mean by crap at taking photos
@Bree-RO my mission for the weekend is to get update pics of them together
hi everyone
so ive got a dog called minty, a bird called birdo, a rabbit called fluffy and 4 horses called bella, stanley, tinkerbell and nova
i love all sorts of animals though 🙂
whats your favourite thing about your pets?
OH MAN THIS IS MY FAVOURITE TOPIC!!!
I have a dog, a german shepherd called Remy and she is the biggest princess!! she doesn't like going on wet grass and gets cranky and woo-woos and grumbles at you if you do something she doesnt like (like pet her belly for too long when shes asking)
shes got such a long skull we used to call her rabbit head, and she puts her ears back really far so it just makes her face seem longer. and she always looks you in the eyes and looks worried or sad, and whines under her breath and wags her tail gently, like shes trying to tell you something bad is about to happen. when we ask her whats wrong the whining just gets more intense or she walks away and waits for you to follow her.... shes a funny lady.
I'm really sad though because she has a disease thats kind of like motor neuron disease but for dogs. She can barely walk/walks with her front legs and drags her back legs behind her most the time. shes gotten really frustrated at that, and has gotten extra clingy, but then gets upset when she cant follow us around? it breaks my heart. So she doesn't have uch longer to live but we spoiling her a lot, so shes getting lots of pats and chin scratches and she gets handfed hot dogs and leftover meat and vegetables and dog food every night
@ivory woo-woo is honestly the cutest phrase I've heard in a while...Remy's ears look so soft and beautiful just like velvet! I'm sorry to hear about her disease but I'm sure she's really happy spending her days with you and your family as doggie royalty. She honestly looks gorgeous!!
@N1ghtW1ng Gracie definitely sounds like doggy royalty, haha. What kind of dog is she?
@N1ghtW1ng your dog actually sounds like the dream dog for my partner and me because he loves whippets/greyhounds and I love staffies. She sounds so cute!
@j95 YES TO DOG PICS!!!
Bailee is tan and black, Sid is lwhite and tan.
I adopted them both from the pound. I'll upload some pics later 🙂
@Bree-RO @anyoneelsewholikesdogs
Gosh dang I must sound like a grandma but how do you high-five someone??
@DirtWitch In case you're still a bit confused, it's this button here 🙂
Remy reminds me of my dog Gracie @ivory. She absolutely hates going on grass (such a princess) We have a cement path running around the side of the house and when we play fetch, she'll run along that, go out at get the toy, then go back onto the cement. Once, I saw her daintily and deliberately step over some poop 😛
And she hates water (but ran headlong into the ocean so... what a weirdo :P)
I'm sorry to hear about her illness, I bet she's loving all the love 😛
@DirtWitch good question! when you see a post you want to high 5 - look for the orange button at the bottom of a post and next to 0 high 5 or 1 high 5 - press the button next to it on the right!
Always here for a good animal related thread! 😛
I have two dogs, Nellie and Scout. They're mum and daughter (trust me, having 7 puppies in your house at once sounds fun in theory, is much harder in practise) and Scout and the rest of the litter were born on Valentines Day (while hard, no Valentines present will ever beat it).
