Sue, those photos are just too cute! Are you going to frame & hang?

Speaking of framing dog photos. I just put these up in our dog room.

Two of our darling Cavachon, Hudson!

Shee, I had a B&W longhair kitty just like yours. He was the sweetest boy who loved belly rubs.

Here are ours now. Little girl loves to loaf in the sunspot. Black kitty is recovering from a paw sprain from trying to climb the kitchen barstool and missing, making a hard landing on the tile floor. Poor thing. He is 15, so not as agile as he once was. He is gradually getting better but still is limping. It is very hard not to have him jump up and down things. Two vet visits and x-rays so far. We really have nowhere to confine him.

Willis loves the pool - but he doesn't swim.

edited to add - that's not me! it's my neighbor

Billie doing what she does best!

Here's our Savannah on her first trip to the lake house.

Jt, I keep meaning to frame this one.

One more - just taken. I decided to put a towel on this chair today so I can quickly remove all the white cat hair when we want to sit on it. Obviously the presence of a new towel doesn’t interfere with their enjoyment.

I’m currently petless so I will share a picture of my brother’s cockatoo. All these cuties are making me think I want another ( but I don’t).

Molly Beagle is doing really well after her surgery. She's just over two months into her 3-months of restricted activity (she's capped at 3 short 15-minute walks a day). We'll be going to the cardiologist April 26 to check to see her heart size and whether there is any regurgitation. At her one-month appointment, she had "trace" regurgitation (which is normal because they can't make the heart valve perfect) and her heart was shrunk back down to normal size (It was previously twice the size it should have been)

And here's her brother Bailey being adorable.

My absolute pain in the neck dog Orry. It’s a good thing he’s cute!

My Bailey picture won't post :( Edited - never mind, I think I got it in this one.

Earl Gray and his littermate sister Ginger Spice.

Here is Murphy. He is almost 8 months old.

Quite a change from when we got him.

All of these photos are so fun to see! Great thread!

Here’s our girl, Ellie asking me to play with her

nutsaboutplants - LOVE that name, Earl Gray!

Sharon, I hear you on the absolute pain in the neck dog. Our Sasquatch is that! I can’t help but love him even though he thieved all the bacon off the counter yesterday. He’s always doing something bad.

Sasquatch: "I've got a great Mom - she always leaves me snacks!"

I always say that's why kittens and puppies are so cute - so you don't kill them when they are bad!

Well, some might be repeats of our Samoyed, Callie!?

My husband caught this little guy in our backyard when our dog Tux wouldn't come in. He had to go pick Tux up and carry him in, then he saw the bun. It was obviously a pet-it's quite tame and is used to people. We've tried to find it's home, but to no avail.

He asked the the other night what we were going to do about it-I've been looking in to rabbit rescues, and I told him I didn't care but IF he kept it he was 100% responsible, and did he want to deal with ANOTHER animal (we've got 6 cats and 2 dogs already). Next thing I know he's gone to the store and bought bok choy, carrots, cilantro and a huge bag of bedding. He moved Berry (short for Cadbury) into a large dog crate and set him up a bed and a nice little house-in the guest room. I guess DH made his decision...

Aussie/Border/Buffalo mixes Poco (black) and Presto (blue merle).

Neetsiepie! OMG!! How absolutely adorable! I have serious bunny love. :) That sweet face!

Neetsie I agree about the cute bun...but I'm a bit biased since DD has always had one. Hers is, however, a house bunny and is allowed free reign. They're curious creatures who like the company of their humans. Have you tried posting on your local CL?

Also, sealavender, I'm a kind of obsessed with parakeets/budgies. Whenever I'm in the pet shop I'm always drawn to the parakeet cage...they such a funny little society going on in there :) How can you not smile?

Neetsie, he's adorable! Someone must be missing him. :(

Donna

Neetsiepie -have you tried NextDoor? Around here, that's proving to be the best way to reunite lost pets and their people. What a cutie!

People turn pet rabbits loose all the time when they become too large or too much trouble or not what they expect in a pet. One of my friend's daughters tried to have a "house bunny" and it chewed everything, esp electrical cords. I think she kept it, though, but lots of people won't. Guess they figure they can survive on their own :-( There was a found rabbit post on our NextDoor and the neighbors chimed in that it was a former pet turned loose and everyone in the neighborhood kind of adopted it and looked after it, someone brought it into their home during some snowy weather we had, then set it loose again.

Olychick, I see posts on Facebook this time every year about NOT buying bunnies to put in Easter baskets. I'm sure it's for the reasons you named.

Donna

OMG, I'm dying here. We are petless for now, and I just want to snuggle all of them!

Zephyr and Bessie. This is their 8th birthday shot coming up later this month.

OMG ... Cadbury! He looks exactly like a toy Easter bunny come to life. I LOVE him!

That bunny is SOOO cute. Happy he has found a good home!!

Mia Tuesday for her birthday she got a pupachino! Lip lickin goodness. She is 10 years old.

Our sweet Great Dane Majic we miss him constantly.

I'll try NextDoor, but I'm pretty confident it was a pet let loose. My DD and her DH captured a bun in their garden that was an offspring of a bun let loose by the prior owners of their house. There had been a rabbit hutch there when they bought the place and last year a bun was feasting on their garden. Neighbors said there were buns in the neighbor hood when the POs lived there.

So yes, for the time being Cadbury is happy in his new home. I noticed the fridge was full of more greens last night when I got home. Spoiled bun for sure!

Bun's love dried cranberries...but they are rare treats! Just for your dh's info ;)

Our granddogdoodle loves her Bunny and t.v.

Haha, it's a real bunny. I thought she was cuddling a stuffed bunny.

Gsciencechick - The black and white one is my buddy. He’s very easy going and lets me hug on him. He recently turned 13 and is slowing down more. I‘ll really miss him someday.

Little girlie, she’s sweet but like every calico I’ve ever been around is very high alert! She can be sitting in you lap, move your leg a little and she bolts like there’s ‘danger’. She comes right back. Nobody has ever abused her or over handled her,etc. I think it’s just in a calioco’s nature. (Someone is now going to prove me wrong, ha.) I’ll miss her too.

Dlm- I laughed about the moles. :)

Neetsie- I’m glad the bunny is safe. He’s so cute! I’m not really surprised but upsets me when people get pets and then aren’t responsible with them. I can’t imagine just dumping them outside.

Martinca- Aw, your granddog in the face and coloring look like the dog we had growing up!

I’ve enjoyed seeing these!

Yes, shee. Their sweet faces!!

Well, we've added two kittens. DH's boss found them in a parking lot on Easter Sunday and brought them to work, hoping someone would take them home. We're such suckers! I think they were around 4 weeks old and have doubled in size, since. Our 10 yr old cat is not happy. She avoids them to the extreme but is only hissy if they run up to her.

Meet Calliope (her fur is a circus of color) and Arnold the Buff.

Easter Sunday, jailed in our bathroom.

Closeups of their adorable faces. An early pic of Calliope and a recent one of Arnold.

What great timing! Savannah just had her first groom today. She's such a fraidy-pants about everything (most recently the ceiling fan), that I've been holding off. But I found a really great, gentle groomer, and she did great.

The Before:

And the After:

She's such a little sweetie....

Love all your babies! These threads always make me smile.

Our home is down one, after loosing our old man recently. He was 13yo (left). Our Lab is 12.5yo. We thought we were going to loose him two weeks ago. He has a brain tumor that causes seizures. The are usually spread a good bit apart, but he had 2 in 3 days, and looked just awful. Thank goodness he perked back up because DH was already upset about loosing his other buddy.

Our #1 female dog tore her ACL and Meniscus 4 days after loosing the old man. Talk about an upset mama! Luckily she had successful surgery, sailed through her 6 weeks of crate/down time, and is working well through her 6 weeks of still being leashed. She is 7yo, but we've only had her about 2yrs. She is the sweetest dog I've ever had the pleasure of knowing.

Pre-surgery pic:

Post-surgery, having some out-of-crate time with me:

The tiniest, but not youngest, is 10yo. She misses the old man. He was her BFF.

Even the cats are getting on up there. This guy is 12yo:

This guy is approximately 10yo, and we've had him 7 years.

Sporting his fresh lion cut. He just had a bath and his ’mane’ needs brushed.

I prefer his fur long but he tends to get knots and isn't super cooperative for brushing so a few times a year he gets a trim.

Great to see some more pics - the little kittens are SOOOO cute. I've only had kittens once - my first two cats when I got out of college.

Oooh, those kitten faces! Awww! We got a kitten that way once - she turned up in the parking lot at my dad's workplace. He brought her into the office to keep her safe and of course she spent the day napping on his desk. I can't remember if he called mom to warn her that we were getting another cat, or if he just showed up with her. :)

Miss Callie was at the Groomer Monday for her spring cleanup! She's never too fired-up afterwards, but here's a couple after I picked her up!

Aaaaaaaannnndd.....

Getting some kisses last Saturday...
