What pets have you had? Post pics of your pets, previous or now. Why do I love my pet so much?

[Sokel]

Found her stray,sick kitten and we adopted her (or she adopted us,it's a little unclear):

Resisting this brown eyes is not so easy, but you have to. Sometimes..

That, is one beautiful cat! Incredibly striking.

Mermaid turns 4 this month, which means I've had her for nearly a year. Best decision I've ever made.

I bet people see a white dog and think let's pet it and are interested in him. It's cool.

This guy should have a tiny saddle with a Gandalf puppet on it.

She has a mermaid costume, but I should definitely make her one for Halloween. I'm pretty shameless in that I bring her with me everywhere because people are nicer to me. She's a star supermodel. People want to pet her, take pictures of her, and ask all about her. She likes the attention, too. These days, s he gets invited to stuff, I'm her +1.

I can hide a harness under that costume, too.

This is Boo. My sons named her after the Boo Radley character in ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ because she is a protector. I usually call her Boo Boo. She’s skittish with strangers, and she is extraordinarily loyal to her pack members.

We're fostering a 10mo old Maltipoo. He didn't know his name, so we're calling him Finn.

That's a handsome boy.

That's a handsome boy.

Fun fact: there's 12 of them around our little (non-student population of 700) village. My daughter has one of his littermates and two from the next litter. I'll walk around with him and people I don't even know will greet him by name, or ask, "Is that one of Chris and Courtney's pups?" (which he is)

Ah, the precious game of "Whose Mouth Is Bigger."

Every now and again I've been known to stick one or another of my Cats' heads in my mouth just to prove the point.

I've had a few where that might go over ok, and I've had others where I would likely scare small children for the rest of my life after the scars healed...assuming I recovered.

He's lovely! Our two are the offspring of a Parti Poodle and a Maltese cross, so we call them 'Multipoos', rather than 'Maltipoos'
