This is my girl Penelope. She follows me everywhere, snuggles, fetches. It's like having an Aussie again, in a cat. She is currently 4.

And this is Boris. Adopted him at 3.5 yrs from a vet's office where his previous owner wanted them to kill him. He's a great boy. He's 7 now.

lol, no not scorpions. They're giant Australian spiny stick bugs. Totally harmless, no stinger, and their mouth is just a vertical slit for chewing on leaves. They do stick to you though, they are a total PITA when it comes to putting them back in their home since they never want to let go of you.



They eat black-berry leaves.

reminds me of my 52 year-old seventh grade biology teacher Miss (not surprising) Winthrope, only kinder and more attractive.

This is what I usually look like when I'm sitting at my computer. No matter how big she gets, Pixie still thinks she's a shoulder dog.



Here's a better photo of her.

Wow, there are some cute and interesting pets here. Sorry to the people who don't think this is fun...... anyways, i figured i'd post something. Here is my daughter's betta Rudolph
[IMG][/IMG]
She named him after the red-nosed reindeer. I wanted to name him Rocky, as in Rocky Balbetta, but you know that dads always get overruled. We also have a lovebird that i haven't taken pix of yet.

Interwebbing tip: An excellent time saver is to ignore topics you don't care about. A most complete waste of time is to enter such threads just to post something mean and miserable about them.
I love pet pics.

Here's my little bundle of joy. Her name is Gemma, a 4 month-old, white Boxer. She weighed 9 lbs. when I got her. She's weighing in at 22 right now. I'm hoping she stays on the small side of things.

This is Dusty, or as my friends call him Mighty Wumperstello Wigwams (don't ask). I think he had a hard day of sleeping.

Here's Buddy:Green Cheek Amazon Parrot



Bought him when he was an egg 40 years ago(he's an L.A. local,born and raised in SoCal) and they are now on the endangered list....Lives in the wild in Central/Southern Mexico/Northern Central America

Every muscle in it's body is hooked to it's feet and beak....Can crack Brazil nuts like peanuts and remove fingers at will....Ah,look,he just want to be petted...

.Speaks about 60 words and sentences.....Favorite song is Marty Robbins "El Paso", where he learned it is beyond me.I used to leave the TV on for him years ago,but I can't do that anymore.Drive you out of the house singing show tunes" Moving on up.....To the east side"......

Will perform every trick he knows.....and make up new ones.... for a Tropical Skittle.....

Most birds are one owner type things,they partner for life.If I were to die,chances are he will go into a depression state and pick all of his feathers out.I'm mom,dad,bro,all rolled into one.

It's a test every single day to see who's in charge.

Costello (had a brother named Abbott that had to be PTS in 2006, RIP) and I relax after a long day by crocheting/knitting and watching David Attenborough nature documentaries. (Seriously. He LOVES that man's voice.)

Also, this is what he has available to sleep in:


This is where His Royal Fuzzibutt chooses to sleep.
