Re: But then people do get so sentimental about their pets.
I am the proud and loving owner of a gigantic hound. Well, almost a hound. A Giant Schnauzer called Arnold Schnauzeregger, "Arnie" for short. He is big, scary and imposing... and a total goof who loves catchin his ball in midair or playing soccer (he always wins). Also, obssesively sniffing and digging after rats, ferrets or any other animal living underground. He is going to be 1 year old this March, so he's still a puppy, albeit, a giant puppy.
This is him after taking a bath.

^He knows that. And he wants you to know that he only receives fan mail on Tuesdays, for future reference.

Re: But then people do get so sentimental about their pets.
Yay, I finally got some photos of my baby!
Oh, and for anyone wondering; that's not a canary- it's a feather teaser!

I was wondering if you'd like to have coffee...
Hmm. I really don't know. Oh, I'm sorry, did I say 'know'? I meant 'care'. I don't really care.

Arnie is lovely and your cat who cannot be named is lovely too Molly.

Re: But then people do get so sentimental about their pets.
That's from The Chronicles of Narnia, isn't it?
I never read the books but I always thought it was a nice name.

Re: But then people do get so sentimental about their pets.
It's so sunny outside and I decided to take some photos of my beloved tom.
Me and my kitty
Going by the state of his nose he had a fight with another cat :/ Hm, but he still looks adorable

He's a cute guy, Mary. I love cats anyway, and he looks like a friendly one. Is that you in the picture? You're a cutie too! *smile*

Oh cheers! I wanted to have a nice pic of him and me, but he always turns away. What is he trying to imply...

My cat's exactly like that. Sweet when he wants to be (generally if you have food) and rather chubby! We tried putting him on a diet, but it didn't work. He just stole the lamb leg from the counter!!!

Re: But then people do get so sentimental about their pets.
Everytime we try to put him on a diet, he'd then sneak through the neighbourhood and beg for some food. He always gets what he wants.
