@chicandbubbly Awww cuddles! My cat definitely can look sour, she does that slit-eyed thing and lays her ears back a bit (we call her an owl when she does that.) Unfortunately, she IS sour... she cuddles with DH and I, but for the most part she avoids everyone else.

@Tusername lol, if it were up to him, he would eat anything! He's such a beggar, he doesn't care what it is. We don't give him grapes though as I know they are toxic. Still doesn't stop him from starting you right in the eye and asking for some. Any time I'm in the kitchen, he's by my feet, waiting for something to fall on the floor so he can grab it and run....onion peels and all! lol. Thank you for looking out though!

These are our three fur babies! I love this thread everyone has the cutest fur babies!!!
Artemis (Calico kitty queen of the house) is 4
Bacchus (Orange and white Tabby momma's boy) is 2
Apollo (the baby of the family) is a 1 & 1/2 year old Great Pyrenees. Don't let the photo of his handsome face fool you, he is a growing 80 lbs and stands 5'5" on his hind legs.
@Monica54321 He IS a gentle giant (when he wants to be)! I've read that they aren't fully "mature" until 2, and I believe it because he still has a lot of "puppy" attitude in him. Great guard dog too! He learns patterns, and schedules and ALWAYS notices when something out of the ordinary is happening, and will surely let us know about it!

Jan. 2016: 1st round of Clomid - stopped due to OHSS
Feb 2016: 1st RE apt - diagnosed with PCOS still possible uterine septum. Put on BC for cysts, HSG will be in March
March 2016: HSG showed both tubes blocked (right tube holding fluid), no uterine septum, need surgery
April 2016: Surgery to remove right (hydrosalpinx) fallopian tube and adhesions from the left - all went well!
May 2016: Waiting to start 3 months of un-monitored cycles in July with metformin and letrozole. If no success, going straight to IVF!
Here are my furbabies! Dallas is a 10-month old 117lb. St. Bernard/Bernese Mtn Dog mix. And his older sister is the 75lb. chocolate lab. Such fun pups!! Can't wait to give them siblings to cuddle!!
Thank you for reviving this thread with pictures of your cuties @kyrgyzshan!!
Guess I'll add another of my little cuddly girl Schatzi. She's super OCD. For example, every night when DH and I watch TV, she has to sit in the same spot next to me. Well tonight, for whatever reason, Bella (the one in my profile pic) took that spot. She situated herself there permanently and wouldn't budge. Schatzi could not find another comfortable spot if her life depended on it. She would try to sit somewhere else and would literally grumble after a couple seconds and then try to find somewhere else. This went on for awhile. Eventually DH and I decided we had to move Bella. Bella is adaptable and can sit anywhere. Poor Schatzi couldn't relax until she had HER spot. (DH has a similar personality by the way so they *get* each other).

Guess I'll add another of my little cuddly girl Schatzi. She's super OCD. For example, every night when DH and I watch TV, she has to sit in the same spot next to me. Well tonight, for whatever reason, Bella (the one in my profile pic) took that spot. She situated herself there permanently and wouldn't budge. Schatzi could not find another comfortable spot if her life depended on it. She would try to sit somewhere else and would literally grumble after a couple seconds and then try to find somewhere else. This went on for awhile. Eventually DH and I decided we had to move Bella. Bella is adaptable and can sit anywhere. Poor Schatzi couldn't relax until she had HER spot. (DH has a similar personality by the way so they *get* each other).
