I have 1 pet at the moment. Angel she is a 135lb. hybrid wolf/shepard mix. I have had her for 11 years. She is one of the best behaved and intelligent animals I have ever had.I'd imagine you'd like to recant this last statement right about now, 'eh Sarge? Total bummer about the Vintage collection damage. :'( Maybe Angel was just jealous that she never got to play with the cool Vintage stuff too, and wanted to take a crack at it when she finally had the chance...
Here is Cosmo being harrassed by his little brother
We have 5 cats...Little Bit, Tim Bit, Bug, Rocky and Monkey

You sure you spelled that last cat's name correctly Bob? :P
My little Gracie rat had to have a mammary tumour removed last Friday, but she’s recovered really well and is almost at full power again.

I could have sworn that I have seen a thread like this here before, but for some reason I couldn't find it. I'm sorry if I am duplicating...

Be wary of rabbits a squirrels.
He lasted quite a while, a good three months, so we may get another one in a couple of days
Newest addition as of 3 weeks ago. This is Bailey & she loves to climb on shelves. Shes banned from going into my collection room.

We now have 5 cats! :o
Ooohhhhhh....pictures of cats. I LOVE cats. They are all so cute (and Brad, CC is pretty 'big boned' isn't he?? ;)).
Those rats are pretty fugly
Wow, how kind of you be so positive about someone else’s pets.
Why not just get a cat if you're getting a dog that small?
<------------- running away now. :P

Our puppy "Keeper"
(http://home.comcast.net/~jedijaybird/keeper.JPG)
Rob -- your dogs are a hoot -- are they Boston Terriers? Do they snore and snort and snot and snuffle?
But they're phenomenal dogs, are unbelievably sweet (to people, not necessarily to other dogs...).
There are a bunch of older pictures a page or two ago if you didn't see them already from when the little one was really little.
Sounds like pugs. Ours could pretty much care less about other small dogs, but get them around a big dog and they would turn into Cujo. They didn't care.
My 1 and a half year old Parakeet...

One fish. A beta named Kirby.
Kev used to breed these things.
My dog passed away this Sunday. :-[ He was 15, and my family has had him for a little over 10 years.
Right now I have a black cat named Spicy McHaggis!

I am so sorry to read about your loss. On Good Friday, my beautiful Golden Lab, Brandy, also passed away. The joy and memories she gave our family over the last 11 plus years will stay with us forever and I certainly understand your pain......

I've got a male named Jabba and a female named Luminara.
What do you keep Kirby in? How long have you had him?
You may recognize my pet bearded dragon, Irwin, from when I snuck her in with my collection pics. Today I arrived home and found her dead. She very recently developed metabolic bone disease but she was seeming to take a turn for the better. It all happened very fast. I loved her very much, she was really like a kid so it is really hard to see her go. :'(

Not a good enough hiding spot to avoid bath time!
Glad to hear she's ok, Rob!
3 rats: IG88, Lenny and Carl (all young males so I should have a year or so before health issues)
2 cats: Howie and Scamper (18 years old)
The rats chase the cats
Yesterday, we had to let our old boy Baker go. He was old for an Alaskan Malamute (12 and a half years) but was always so playful and fun. He was a true pack leader...we would take him to the dog park, and all the other dogs would follow him around, truly an amazing sight to see!
The past couple of days he could not make it up the stairs (he's had arthritis for a while but he could still get around), and then he just stopped eating. Yesterday afternoon, you could just see him fading away, so we made the tough decision to take him to the vet and end his suffering.
I'm going to miss him.
Sorry to hear about Tarkin, Jesse. I hope it ends up getting better as time passes...
On a personal note, I may be seaking out advice from you as our Great Dane, Buffy, is turning 10 in May. It's going to be a really rough patch for the entire family when it's her time.
He died in your arms? Oh man, that must have been tough. Sorry Ryan.
Adopted two "male" rats from a Pocket Pet rescue group recently. We have had many rats but it never crossed our minds to question what the rescue said. When putting them away recently I asked my wife, "Why doesn't this one have testicles? Why is it so fat?" We now have 11 babies.
Glad to hear your pooch is doing well. One question: was the dog-sitter a friend?
I'd be wary of Pet insurance Rob...we have looked into it for our dogs from time to time and the coverage isn't very good at all.
Sad to hear.
On a related note by wife gets choked up every time she see's the trailer for "A Dog's Purpose (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4y_h9xbyDE)".
Our dog is turning 11 and is on the slow downhill slide and I think the thought of life without our dog is becoming more real to her.
That shot of her looking out the window is the best! I have a picture of Colin with Cora looking out the window at the snow that I have framed and will keep forever!
It's amazing how a new puppy can heal your heart!
