because I'm home sick and bored, pet pics!

My faithful companions.

Awww!! Cuties :D




Here are mine. This is Doerak just before New Year's when fireworks were going off, and he was telling me what he thought about that in no uncertain terms. I think swearing was involved!

Behind him his brother Rakker.

We no longer have any pets, so I have to make do with my daughter's cat - who loves me!

Such a good cat, keeping your head clean!

Gaer boy: that is one sweet kitty! :D

Oh, I remember the kitty pictures with the two orange dudes, now they are all grown up.

My son.

They'll be 7 in March.. time flies huh!

Here's a pic from when they were still at the shelter, March 2011:

He's adorable!

If any of you guys have a HD image of your Pets, I could do you a wallpaper for you desktop or mobíle?
Image has to be High Definition, uncomplicated background and well lit, but not blown out.

Let me know if your interested :)

Roger Melania

I could probably get a photo of the wild coyotes like the one in my current avatar, but they only come out at night and they really don't like flash photos. The one in the avatar image proved she was female a couple of weeks ago by going into season, so maybe there will be pups in a couple of months.

Roger and Melania look so sweet!!

That's a great pose by Roger.

The 1 cat <Miso> trained by my dogs. I will post my pack of dogs later. Miso acts like a dog more than a cat. Even eats dog food. As you can see. She aint starving.

Beautiful cat rokytnji.1!

Nice cat. That's a Kodak moment.

The pack minus 1 dog. Heading off to get fed. The pitbull is named Lulus and is a girl. She is such a gentle creature. Understands commands quickly and is eager to please



Popeye, a Pug and Chihuahua mix



Monty , a full blown male chihuahua



I rescue death row mutts abandoned by owners that abandon them at the local Animal Control Centre < aka Dog Pound >. When I take them home. Their next stop was a Euthanasia Needle. I train them to guard my shop, motorcycles, and my family. I trust them alone with my grand kids.
Abandoned pets make the best pets IMO. Because they love unconditionally. Even Miso was a throw away. She comes when called like a dog.
Mutts and Mix Breed animals are very quick on learning and clever also. Given the right owner.

I don't chain animals up all day. I don't let stay outside when the temp drops below freezing. They come in the house to stay warm and toasty during the night.

Miso the cat, Is a prey catcher and nothing moves in my place without her intervention. I keep pets to remind me life is good. Especially when BBQ and Beer and friends are present. They are sociable when I am present.

The kennel

Beautiful cat rokytnji.1!

Thanks for that. She was a fraidy cat when I brought her home from the pound . I threw her in the kennel with the dogs till she figured things out. As you can see.
She did not suffer from the experience and the dogs educated her on how good things were with me as a pet owner.
Pretty soon. About a week. She was greeting me also when I stepped out to the kennel to feed everyone.

I got weird ideas on how I raise my pets. But they are healthy minded and most are over weight. Because of canine tendencies. If it is there.
They will eat and eat and eat. With the pack mentality. Not enough food. Fights start.

Last photo. Lulus when I 1st saved her from death row

Good thing you do, thank you for saving them :)

You're a good man, nice dogs.

My last "pet" was a pair of these ~~ I got chumped into promising to "find 'em a good home" when kid moved to Florida.
The male was 34" long & had an annoying habit of charging, and climbing up my nekked leg like a ima tree trunk, at feeding time.
Favorite food, seasonally, was Rose of Sharon blossoms; year-round, steamed broccoli florets.
Took me durn near 2 years to rehome the pair. Took another couple months for me to break my habit of cooking broccoli daily.

Only a mother...

The male was 34" long & had an annoying habit of charging, and climbing up my nekked leg like a ima tree trunk, at feeding time.

I taught mine the word sit and it's meaning. They were dumb dogs and cats till I schooled them. Like tweaking stuff on your Linux computer. Training takes some effort. Hence why just I won't just let anyone I don't check out first adopt them.
Pizza night in the Kitchen during a past winter. Some of the dogs and cats in the pic are are adopted and gone.

I got into this pattern of behaviour after my wife got the job of Animal Control Officer. She has since moved on to the City Building Code enforcement dept. Perk is. I get free Dektop and Laptop gear when the city Upgrades from Windows what ever. I have not bought a computer or peripherals for a while. My stuff is not latest greatest. But I don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

I found I enjoyed taking care of pets. The love/companionship is good for me in my senior years. So I keep my hand in this even though my wife has moved on in her job career.

@ Roky : do they go with you on road trip?

I took Popeye when he was younger down Bourbon Street in New Orleans when visiting my oldest boy there. He stays single and was living with a magazine model there. The bars are dog friendly and let you bring in your dog when deciding to partake in their place for food and drink.

A panhandler. They are legit in New Orleans and have freedom of the streets. Trying to hustle me on the sidewalk. Part of his hustle was to reach down and pet Popeye on his leash I was leading him with.

Popeye. Being a the Alpha male of the pack. Did not like this pan handlers hustle/demeanour. He probably sensed the dudes inner self. So he grabbed the dudes hand and let him know. Hands off. Which made the pan handler move on.

I take em sometimes. Sometimes I don't. Depends on where I am going and transportation involved. I like taking the little dogs. The big ones watch the shop.

My dogs are easy going. But they aint push overs either.

rokytnji.1 They look like they are waiting for food.

Well. It was Pizza Night that night. I'd be waiting also if I was dog. Shoot. There is no 5 second rule on my floor.

Where I get my pets from.

One I rescued but now adopted.



Edit: another one




My Wife with the pack. Last winter. Lulus is younger and smaller. She is about 50 lbs or so now.



Notice the couch is covered, for outside dog obvious reasons.

So cool all those puppies!

rokytnji.1 Nice. :)

my dog benji
he was a rescue dog i got about 4 years ago. hes a cross staffie greyhound he was starved and weighed under 20 pound when i got him, he was a year old.
now hes 6 and half stone of solid muscle

Looking good there!!

Me likey Benji. I had to chase off 2 border collies with collars on yesterday. I was using my smoker to cook a brisquit. The smell of course brought me loose/escaped neighbours dogs. One border collie was the Mom. The other her pup.

when benji stands on his back legs and rests his front paws on my shoulders hes as tall as me, im 5 feet 11 inches lol.
he hates other animals tho, so he would have chased the dogs of for ya rokytnji no problem there

Mine are fenced up. I was cooking out front. Mine raised a racket of course.

yea we had to put 7 foot fence round back. neighbors have dogs cats etc. hes already had a german sheppard, a staffie and a jack russel

You can look further back in thread to see my setup and pack of dogs.

will do, went through some during night

i agree with the statement you made in youre post
"rescue dogs make the best pets" like i said benji is a big dog, 6 n half stone of muscle but my 2 grandson who are 4 and 2 can pull him all over, hes so gentle when they go near him, but on the other side. if any stranger goes near them hes protective
i like lulus, she looks solid

Lulus lately



I have to chain her up during feeding time. She thinks all the dog bowls are hers. She is watching me in the motorcycle shop while on my wireless MX 17 music, movie, motorcycle manual, media center. A old Emachine 3507 I found in alley thrown out. Popeye is squatting in the back ground.

it always shocks me how people can mistreat them, when i got ben he was so skinny he couldn't stand, had cigerrette burns in his ears and his claws were so short they were bleeding. vet said he will be lucky to live but he has

My wireless antenna for the shop computer



I get pretty good reception with that setup. Yea. Certain people should not be around good animals. I am 6 foot 7 inches and weigh 275 lbs. I can put a hurtin on some one if I don't like em. I don't like bullies.

sweet antenna. i ran ethernet to my workshop bottom of garden. i have an 80's ar50 kawasaki ive restored and my aquariums in there. my little hideaway when mrs is on one . got pc with tv card set up, tea urn and a fridge, happy days

*digs up topic*


I just have to share this.. I mean.. just look how horribly abusive I am to this cat.. it's awful and I should be reported!!!

That boot lace looks like it could be a problem.......wonder what would have happened if you had yanked on it.......

Yeah I saw that when I posted it

yeah, my first thought was, did she eat someones shoe... and now it's stuck?

I think the cat would show veeeery different behavior if that were indeed the case *giggle*

That is one very relaxed cat :) It is has a funny tail though

At least it matches color wise hahaha

Just hit me. Cats have a paper fetish. My paper bags folded on the kitchen floor are Miso bed mats also.

Every night, You hear rustling. Must be the smell or something.

It is definitely one of the more popular things.. bags and boxes. Hide places.

And if I put a sheet of paper on the floor.. where does he sit? ON the paper

What a great thread :-)

Here's my cat:



We called her Sid because she's unstable.

Perfect name!!

Looks very fluffy :)

Love the look.

I'd love to hear how Doerak is pronounced. Anyone wants to volounteer a vocaroo.com upload ?

Well.. the owner would be the best bet to ask

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRight.

A face only an owner could love ..

To be honest.. I am not the owner and I would love that puppy :)

And I would buy a LOT of drool cloths.. haha

I watched a cop make his horse dump about a pint of drool on a bum sleeping on a park bench
one sunny Sunday in NYC - bum woke up screaming, ran off into the bushes, never to be seen
again - even das horse chuckled ... nasty, smelly, wet awakening ...

Black cats are really hard to capture, so I'm really proud of this capture of our mixed moggie.

Indeed.. black cats.. they're gorgeous but they photograph like crap hahaha.

Beautiful!
