I know we just did one of these not too long ago but let's see your pets!

Heck yes! Already posted these over in the other thread, but I'm spamming them again. This is my big baby, Charlie. He is a rottweiler.

@flowntheloop I just want to snuggle him 🥰



This is Elvis. He’s a 22lb cat who acts like a dog and only puts up with me because I feed him. 

flowntheloop

@kbrown2385 WOW! He is HUGE! And such a pretty boy!

brookert615

Spamming the thread with Gypsy girl!

We dress her up in antlers around the holidays and she's actually pretty good at keeping them on! She also got stuck in my mom's curtains the one day and she didn't feel bad about it at all. Then there was the trash can saga where she hated that we got a pet proof trash can and she would drag it around the house and chew the bag around the edges lol.

@flowntheloop OMG he's so cute! Especially as a puppy!

@kbrown2385 I love Elvis's coloring/pattern!

kbrown2385

@brookert615 she looks pretty pleased with the curtain situation 🤣. I have to find the pic of Elvis in his grinch costume. He wasn’t impressed.

@flowntheloop he is precious!!!

Here's my babies....
Chase (AKA: Chase Manhattan, Beans, Beanie) - 11 year old dachshund 

Lola (AKA: Lolabear, Pumpkin and Princess Peach) - 1 year old hound mix, mostly american fox hound

And both of them together: (Pup-A-Chinos or Pup-A-Ronis)

kpearse99

@brookert615 so sweet and so funny!!

@kbrown2385 what a cat!!!  Please find that grinch photo!!

flowntheloop

@brookert615 Too precious! She looks like a troublemaker!

We tried the antlers on Charlie a couple of years ago, and they wouldn't fit properly! His head was too big so they just slid down his face. My niece made a silly little Christmas card/avatar out of the photo though!

@flowntheloop Oh my goodness! He was a little ball of fluff!

@kpearse99 Seriously so adorable!

@kbrown2385 What a big cute, kitty!

@flowntheloop Yes, she's a mischievous little pupper lol. That card is everything! 

flowntheloop

@kpearse99 AWWW! They look so gentle and sweet!

kpearse99

@flowntheloop they certainly are sweeties but can get into some mischief when they want to... particularly Lola.  We are trying to ease her out of her cage and she ate a corner of the couch once... chewed through a few wires (100% positive she got shocked at least once) and got her head stuck in a snack container once.... I wish I could upload a video because it was hilarious!

Here is my grandpa kitty (17 y/o this month). I went home during lunch time yesterday and he was so happy to see me. Seen here with his mouse filled with kitty crack aka silver vine.

@flowntheloop oh my gosh was he cute as a puppy!

@kbrown2385 Elvis is quite the big boy!

@brookert615 she looks so happy with the sign like yay my humans are getting married!

@kpearse99 both are so adorable!

Our oldest pet, Haejii (red eared slider). She's in a nearly 300 gallon tank which she shares with some fish

<img alt="" src="https://us.v-cdn.net/5020794/uploads/editor/g6/5n1hpbab45f1.jpg">

Our youngest bunch - the sunfish. DH has started naming the largest ones after sun Gods. The largest is Ra, another is named Baldor and I can't remember any others.

Tabby cat Gir. Apparently this was short for "Girl" (per my Uncle, the cat was his sister's) but with DH and I being into robots we kept the name and say she's named after the Invader Zim robot pet. She's an indoor cat, but I let her wander outside with supervision.

Stuck in spoiler....

Last but not least, everyone's favorite! Pinecone the hedgehog!

Okay, here are my girls.

And I can't forget the bird!

brookert615

@inthewoods23 Oh my goodness! I love all your pets! You're giving me some major tank inspiration with the fish and turtle. We had a sucker fish for a while and he got along with the turtle pretty well!

@ruby696 What sweet pup faces! Your bird is so pretty! 

@rikiteacup Grandpa kitty is gorgeous! 

Edit - Tag!

ruby696

@brookert615 Thanks! My Danes are awesome. They're so sweet and loyal, and really gentle for being so big.

b_1029

Russ- the face of b1029

Rue - pretending she’s exploring a jungle, but it’s reallt just the side of our house. She’s an indoor cat but sometimes we let them roam around 

Hurley, our outdoor cat mean mugging to remind me that it’s time for dinner 

Rose, our other indoor cat out exploring our deck. If you all remember the grape saga with DH, that’s the tree she’s sitting in front of 😂 

inthewoods23

@brookert615 our tank is from Custom Aquariums so it was a bit pricey but we plan on her staying in that tank forever now. Before she was in a 125 gallon that was a standard 6ft long x 1.5ft deep x 1.5ft tall (or maybe it was 2ft tall?). This one is square and gives her lots of space to swim around. Also, the logs, 3D background, and rocks are all fake and made from a mold so they're all really lightweight. Made by a company in Serbia. Previously we had real rocks and logs - VERY heavy. If you follow Joey from King of DIY in Canada he uses them too for all his fish tanks.

ruby696

@inthewoods23 I ❤ Pinecone! Also, love your aquarium. We used to have a 200 gallon saltwater aquarium, which was gorgeous but so much work (and super heavy with 150lbs of live rock). I love that you have fish with your turtle - what an awesome habitat.

brookert615

@b_1029 So cute!!! I love Hurley's face in that picture LOL.

@inthewoods23 Thank you for the tips!!! We need to upgrade once we move this year and get Dexter his forever home LOL.

emeraldduchess

My sweet girl.

inthewoods23

@ruby696 I'm so happy to see someone with a bird! I think they're awesome! I started following a few subreddits called "birbs", "parrots", and "partyparrots" and I have never been disappointed in what gets posted.

ruby696

@inthewoods23 He's an awesome little guy! And green cheek conures aren't all that noisy, unlike some other types of conures (or large parrots). He's kind of a clown and very sweet, and he loves to cuddle and get wet. I would highly recommend for anyone who doesn't have room for a larger pet.

hanshotfirst77

This is my sweet little Murphy

As a puppy:


and now 9 yrs old:

daffodil_shoe

These are my babies! The pit/boxer mix rescue is “mine”, and the black lab my husband uses for hunting. 

kpearse99

@hanshotfirst77 oh my goodness... that sweet puppy face!!!!

kagesstarshroom

I got in last night, and my dogs were SOOOOOOOOO happy to see me. It was so awesome. And then the younger one like must've forgot I got in in the middle of the night and was like "OMG you're back!" again this morning. It was the BEST.

Here they are recently. Nova first, I took this one on her first birthday which was earlier this month:

And here's the two of them "Lion Kinging" as I like to call it haha. They love playfighting & have never hurt each other, somehow, despite this looking vaguely vicious lol. Nova is the one in the air and Jasper (he's ~5 y/o) is the one with the "big" collar (which we had to get bc she likes to chew on his collars):

celticknotfire

Loving all the pictures!

The old man Ashford.  He likes chasing shadows and light so he was waiting for the flash from the camera!  He had both of his knees replaced when he was two but he never really let it slow him down.

This is Fenix.  He has to lay on pillows and blankets or a bed.  He's too good for the bare floor!  When we got him from the shelter as a puppy he had really bad kennel cough that turned into pneumonia and we almost lost him the first week so I say he deserves to lay on whatever pillows he wants.

The youngest one is Baird.  He is actually full grown in this picture.  We joke that he a new breed called a mini-dalmatian.  He was a runt and very underweight when we got him but we happily nursed him back to health and other than his size he is a happy and healthy dog!

This was after we had Baird for a few months and they will still lay like this!

Here is my cat Carlos. He is also large like @kbrown2385 whenever I see other people’s cats I realize how giant mine is. He takes up the whole couch cushion.

mercury94

Fair warning, I have 5 of them. Get ready for some spam. 

This is Kermit, my first puppy. He is pure bred pug and his nephew won best pug at Westminster.  

Stitch is my second puppy. I got him because his first owner couldn’t afford to keep him. They claimed he was pure bred, but he’s clearly a mix. We think pug and chihuahua. 

Yoda is my rescue that happened because I went to PetSmart on a Saturday. He is Yoda because he is small and old and his ears stick out. 

DH has 2 dogs when we met. The girl is LuLu. Age looks like a chocolate lab and she begs for pets instead of treats. She’s my only girl. 

And last but not least, the Bear. He and LuLu are from the same litter, but he looks much more like a rottie than she does. He’s so big and cuddly. 

chichiphin

SO MANY SQUISHESSSS I love animals 

and I also love to show off my chichis 

flowntheloop

So much cuteeeee!

kpearse99

@celticknotfire they are beautiful pups!!  Makes me want a 3rd....HA!  My Lola won't lay on a bare floor either haha she will lay on the smallest pillow if she has to, but she will not lay on the floor.

kpearse99

@mercury94 I'm laughing so hard at your "I got him because I went to Petsmart on a Saturday" comment!

rikiteacup

Got another one of him today. Move away from your screen 

kbrown2385

@rikiteacup his eyes are so pretty 

kels0091

Everyone’s pets are so sweet!!! 
ive already shared a bunch of pictures of these pups but I can’t resist. They’re so loveable. 

madcouplewithabox

This thread makes me so happy!
