...and this is Willow. She was in the care of my ex-girlfriend years ago, and was passed on to another friend who is now my housemate. Willow has been my friend for many years but she has not exactly warmed up to Pete yet. She is well, a little jealous apparently.

Pete looks like he just came out of a dryer with his hair stuck up like that.

I've had dogs before, but no pictures on hand.

I've never really had a pet. MY gf has a canary atm, it's pretty cool, called Mabel.

no pics because my camera got stolen, but I've got a 30 gallon aquarium full of a shitload of guppies, and a couple of little eel-like things.

OP here. Pete is dead. He died choking on his own blood this afternoon, after being stepped on. I guess a lung or some other vital organ was crushed. Then we buried him in the backyard. It all happened really quickly. The whole house is traumatized.

I'm just drunk and thought I should bump this thread one last time, in memory of him.

Sounds awful :( Here's to Pete...

This is Cody. Adopted him about a year ago. he's my buddy.

do I smell troll?

>>1455
What?

>>1455

Check your upper lip.

>>1458
Honestly I'd rather it be troll than dead cat. :(

Not trolling. I don't even know why you would suspect that. He died in my arms yesterday, my little warrior. He is gone. And I am quite drunk right now.

>my little warrior

Tears... in... eyes.

Her name is Goblin. This photo's a couple of months old. She's about twice this size now.

she's a lot bigger now

>>1653
She's lovely. Wish I could have a cat in my apartment D:

>>1471
She looks sort of like my new cat. Right after Pete died my friend got kicked out of her place and I ended up adopting her cat.

This is Kristian the Cat. He appeared outside, wet, hungry and scared. Here in his chair, many years later, he is king of his domain :)

Ticco, a male Schäfer, German Shepard, about 1 year old

If you look closely, there is a kitten in this box of corn flakes. He put himself there, for whatever reason. I tried to get a better pic but he wouldn't stay put long enough.

and his name is Tetley, which is also the name of the most popular brand of tea around here. I didn't name him, that was the name he came with. When I took him to get snipped, the vet told me that they had several cats named "Tetley" in their files. That says a lot about our local culture I think.

He is absolutely crazy and I love him.

Cool story about the cats name. And a cool looking cat:) Thanx

Ticco meets a cat for the first time. This cat is not afraid of the big dog, but rather enraged :) Ticco plays it cool...

This is Varg, meaning wolf, a gorgeous 2yo. He will be missed.

>>2046
That name is Norwegian, right? or it comes from several Northern European languages. Did he die? If so, I'm sorry to hear that.

>>2047
Thats right, Varg is a norwegian abbreviation of wolf. Varg was put to sleep, he was struggling with a typical german shepard condition which caused problems to his digestive system. Also, because he was subjected to mental abuse from his former owners, he could suddenly attack people, for no appareant reason. He never hurt anyone, but I'm sure scared the crap out of his "victims". But I knew him as a kind, fun, sensitive dog, ever so kind to children.

Timmy. born Oct. 1999. Recently he had started peeing a lot in the house in his old age, but we thought he was justing being more of a punk than usual. We didn't know till it was too late. He had a cancer growing in his bladder that what constricting his urethra, so his capacity was getting lower and lower. The doc said it was going to squeeze shut eventually, and that it'd be better for him to die by injection than kidney failure. When I came back during spring break I just threw every rule out the window. I'd let him walk where ever he wanted, whenever he wanted. If he found a chicken bone, hell I'd let him eat the whole chicken, even road kill, I'd just stop and wait till he was done.

Weird though, was one time we came upon a squirel just lying on the sidewalk, looking like it was freshly dead. It's eyes were even still round. And first I dreaded that he would start tearing it up right there, but I stopped myself and let him sniff it. He sniffed, but then walked away. I didn't know what he knew, or maybe he just knew me too well to know that I wouldn't want him to eat it.

God he knew me so well. He knew when I was pissed. He knew when I was happy. He knew when I wanted to play. I knew when he wanted to play. We knew when one of us was tired. He even knew the way home. I even tried asking him to come in the bathroom for his bath, and usually he'd just run away, but this time he walked in. Hell if anything was hard to make him do it was to eat.

I really didn't know how'd I go through with it. I tried humming the last track of blade runner in my head. When I practiced the night before I sobbed so loudly I woke him up. The sound I made almost sounded like the weep he would make when hurt or sad. He would always got anxious when it looked like I was going to leave, and would weep when I was out of his reach. I left him so many times, maybe this is payback.

Everyone he knew came to visit him one last time. As we rode he would nudge my hand and put his head in it. As we were waiting he still knew how to shake hands. When we placed him on the table he was shivering. And it happened so god damn fast. I mean, I don't know if what they gave him was like an overdose of heroin or something pleasent, but it looked as if his soul was ripped out of his body. He went from looking into my eyes shivering, to convulsing, to panting on his side, till his heart stopped and his tongue hung part way out. All the while I said "good dog, good boy", something he hears when he knows he's going to get a treat or get pet. A fucking kid like Jared Lee Loughner can shoot 20 people and smile, and people expect me to start acting normal right after I went through that.

2011, Mar 11, about sunset. I don't know what would be a good picture of him, but here he is doing what he loved.

>>2119
RIP :(

OP still here. This thread turned out a little different than I expected ;_;

>>2119
Sounds like he was a great dog. I don't know what they give them when they get put down either but I always assumed it was something to put them literally "to sleep". Perhaps I was wrong, that sounds dreadful.

Tetley is still alive and well, and fucking shit up left and right. My roommate snapped this shot of him. Explain to me how the fuck he got up there? There is pretty much nowhere I can put anything that is out of his reach anymore. Everything needs to be put in a drawer or something. I had to barricade the back of my desk with beer boxes because he kept unplugging my network cable, and it's a real hassle to get back there and plug it in again. Maybe it's a sign, he wants me to spend less time on the internet and more playing with him?

new roommates...

Mr. Teef, the coolest and smartest dog I've ever met (well, maybe). Loves cats.

Basil. Very sweet and friendly, and dumb as a fucking post. I keep seeing him trying to hook doors open with his paws... from the wrong side. So he's pulling when he should be pushing, and jamming his paw in the door in the process.

MadCat, rather appropriately named. He pretty much lives in the woods and only comes inside when he's half starved. I think he feeds himself on shrews and such in between visits. Terrified of people, doesn't like the other cats, yet loves Teef for some reason. Him and my cat Tetley often get into nasty scraps and I've actually seen the dog break it up on one occasion.

Here he is stealing Tetley's food, which is probably why they don't get along so well.

and my own little guy patrolling the new turf, lazor eyes at the ready.

lol passed out cat

this my doggerz Tai-Tai, she's a pittschund! Or is it daschbull?...

shopping at costco means unlimited new houses for your cat

Looks more like she's captaining a ship than living in a house.

>>4004
That's the roof-top patio for surveying the landscape.

Get some cheap paint, paint the outside a base coat of whatever color then paint it to match your decor.
