Show & Tell..

Shea - my 5 and a bit month old lab...utterly insane but very cute with it

Even better than a picture is a video... our fishtank.

Aw wow AJ I love your fishtank, I'd love one like that but don't have the space at present.

I don't actually have a pet but allow me to introduce Poppy, the 4 month old St Bernard my friends mum recently got:

2 year old Meg (yes, she is in the bath)

And her brother 2 yr old Archie

Not entirely convinced we do but we made room It's not actually that big, and came with a special stand which was on a deal that if bought together was cheaper than the tank on its own!

I'd love a tropical tank but I know they take a lot more care. This tank is an upgrade from a smaller 40 litre tank I have at home which is awaiting our hopeful move next year and then maybe I'll set it up with lots of nice little bright colourful fishies alongside my goldfish tank.

Since I did that video I've added to the tank and got another fish - a Black Moor - and a coldwater clam which shuffles along the bottom of the tank when nobody's looking, hoovering up all the crap that doesn't get to the filter.

LOLA, 9 year old manx

and Howard, 2 years

My blue boy Rex

And my firstborn little tux, Baby

Buster the Patterdale cross. Shouldn't let him on the bed but I do when OH is on nights.

ETA: Damn - won't let me add from iPhone.

K...I can't see Buster ☹️

I have no pets but you can see photos of my puppies if you want BB?

?

You're forgetting I've been in bed with you ?

Meet cookiekat, my naughty tortie

My boys have both died now but I still miss them so you get pictures of them too

True!

I don't have any pets now, but here's my old Cat "Bathory", when she was a kitten

Poppy... Watchin tv like human, and just being cute.

Pics off my old phone so a bit blurry!

Here's my zoo...

Millie, Mollie and Mikey.

Bubba (the very naughty dog!)

This is the only pic I have of the fish, also starring Millie. Fish are named Marve, Mavis and Deidre ?

Here are Toby (hooded) and Zak (blue) my gorgeous ratties!

Sange. Mrmini and I are very impressed by your owl! We love them! Will post pics of my babies later.3 cats and 6 chickens.

Awww what a lovely thread to come into today

I am sort of cheating, my little hammy who died earlier this year and a picture of my best friends dog who I have sort of adopted as my own, dont tell her!

Not the best picture because the little monster wont sit still for long enough.

Harley at 3 months;

And now my 3 stone, 5 1/2 month old terror.

? Waaah I don't have any!!!

Mr C wants a dog, I want cats... ?

Growing up I had loads of pets... over a period of about 18 years we had 4 x rabbits, 2 x guinea pigs, 3 x hamsters, 2 x rats, 13 x cats and fish in the pond!

This is Holly:

She's 4 and she's very cute.

We also have a parrot (well, a conure) called Diego, but he belongs to Mr B (was on the scene way before I was), I have nothing to do with him. He bought him from a friend, so we have no idea how old he is. I hear they live for a very long time.

Loving the ginger cats!! am in talks with Mr F about getting one caslled Henry, i even put it on my christmas list lol heres my er, very ladylike kitteh Cocopops...so proud ?
and normally...

You must win! Cats are significantly better at cuddles!

I have had so many pets over my 25 years.. Don't think I've ever been pet-less.

A few of my old aminals:

Sorry, lots of pics!

Here is my 3 1/2 year old Tabby Maggie-May Banana T____ (our surname) The banana is because H had a silly idea about calling our first born Banana so when we adpoted Maggie we added Banana on!

She's asleep on my bed as always...(Weird positions are her forté - you will notice her front paws are actually in the air)

And a little close up of her cute sleepy cat face

Ok so here are a few of the chooks;

Its really hard to get a pic of the kittens as they dont stay still for long enough;

And. The one. The only...Harry. A legend amoungst Cats;

oh and for good measure- still "mine" but living with my mum and dad now- Patrick the PiggyWig (forgot to mention on the Familyisms thread this is what Guinea Pigs are known as in the Mini household)

Harry looks like quite a character! I have a similar pic of my cat, how can they be comfy!?

I LOVE the photos of Harry et al on radiators. Amazing.

Here's a little collage of Buster - I couldn't pick one.

Going to try and find recent pics of my 3 moggies!

1 year old Lemmy - aka 'demon cat', 'basement cat' and 'vicious killing machine'

1 year old Ozzy being cuddled by Scarlett. Surprisingly he loves it and when she puts him down he comes running for more. Daft cat.

2 year old Blaze. We did also have a gorgeous tortoiseshell (his sister) called Bayley (as in Blaze Bayley, former singer of Iron Maiden) but we had to rehome her because the boys were being horrible to her and it made her ill :-(

Should specify - by "the boys" I mean the boy cats, not my sons. My kids are lovely with animals!

We have 3 cats!

Maiya...well, half a Maiya lol:
