Guess What Kind Of Pet I and My Brothers Own?

[SeattleDeb]

I have an interesting pet named Mr. "No I'm Not Fat" Stripes (a cat) - who at 18 lbs swears he has a very slow metabolism and is the victim of a too thin-obsessed cat society.

That was pretty funny...

I am the proud keeper of two rabbits. Thay can't stop talking about Easter...

I have a totally obnoxious domestic long haired cat named Priscilla. All she wants to do is eat. If she doesn't like the paricular brand of cat food I've offered her she gets an insulted look on her face and loudly objects. If I yell at her she gets louder and louder until she gets her way. One day I came in from work completely worn out. The first thing I do is feed the pets, but Priscilla was pulling her usual 'difficult' act, and I was just too tired to play the game. I snatched up the hand hose on the kitchen sink and let her have it. Ummm...I didn't know cats can walk on the ceiling

I have a Quaker Parrot! Who doesn't like anyone to take him out of the cage. If you grab him, he locks his claws on the cage so you can't pull him out. He rather get out on his own, and after he is out he just sits there on top of the cage and starts laughing sarchasticly. He still young, but is learning a lot of new phrases, although I belive he likes my jokes, he can't stop laughing

LOL! That bird sounds like a real character!

If you want to talk about wierd pets, all you need is a siamese cat, they have ATTITUDE !!.

Funny SeattleDeb... I think you and I must have the same affection for our large cats. I will stand by my large cat, she is not fat, she is gravity enhanced!!!!

I own a Black Persian and his name is MAX.

MAX sleeps 16 hours a day, preens for 3 hours, eats for a total of 2 hours (he actually munches), sits and stares, God knows what he stares at, (his bowl, the walls...) for I don't know how long, and is afraid the rest of the time.

In the morning, he likes to walk all over me, then he jumps on my shoulder, then stares closely into my face and purrs. That's his way to tell me he wants breakfast, hee-hee!

We have an adopted an orphaned standard Schnauzer named Frayser(because he was found in the Frayser area of Memphis). After have a mini schnauzer that was every bit a lady, this one is a trip. He belches and passes gas and doesn't even have the grace to look embarassed. He is all boy...and my college sons just adore it. At 31# I have trouble convincing him he's not a lap dog...

I LOVE Siamese cats Actually, I love ALL cats, but the Siamese definitely has an attitude. I've had several cats through the years. We also have a ferret. Now there is an animal that will keep you in stitches And I can't leave out Snoopy and Suzanne, our sixteen year old Cocker Spaniels. We bought this house specifically so they could have the yard.

Be careful what you say Coolj, I have a Siamese....

I had 3 guinea pigs whom I thought were all girls, until I noticed the large growths on the one's "area". His name was Brak. He made my girls into mommies (Yoda and Punkin) and then I had 9 guinea pigs (Slinky, Orange Butt, Mowser, #2, Dumbo, Sunshine). Then I sold the babies to my friends and the mommies got sick and passed away. So I kept one baby (Slinky) and the daddy (Brak) and I bought a bunny (Peek-A-Boo) who I called Boo for short. Then I took them with me to Phoenix and adopted a kitten (BroLee). I had to leave them with friends when I moved back east. Now I have 2 dwarf bunnies, a neutered male (Oh Spun-Kee Bay-Bee), Spunkee for short, and a female (Madame Buttermilk). They are silly pets, because they like to eat Golden Grahams, and Spunkee growls at me when I try to feed him. The end.

Sorry about babbling, but I can't help it. I love animals!!!

Actually, the letter A in the word cat stands for ATTITUDE! After a 20-year acquaintance with a noble member of the feline persuasion, I feel qualified to say that anyone who is kept as a pet by a cat should feel honored.

I'm the abused pet of my 4 cats! 2 princess females that fluff all day and hiss at my 2 wild and crazy males.

My dominate male thinks he's a dog...he has a leash and gets very excited going for walks around the yard! He's sooo tough he stands his ground with barking dogs...I keep trying to tell him he doesn't have claws and running would be a better option but he's quite certain he's KING of the WHOLE world!

I have a big red dog named Billy Biscuit. He looks like a red siberean husky. I also had a tabby cat ( until the biker-maniac down the street ran over her. ) Cookie (the cat) was quite a character---only 7 lbs. , house-trained (no litterbox, thank God!), and always on the wrong side of every door. She would sit and meow at the door to go out. No amount of "Shut up, Cookie!" or ignoring her would stop the moewing until someone let her out. she also had the habit of climbing up on my dresser at 3 AM and scratching at the mirror until someone let her out. It was a very soft, quiet scratching on the glass, but something about it would wake you out of the deepest sleep. She also was quite a hunter for such a little thing. One moring there was a decapitated rabbit on both the front and back porches!
