What did your pet(s) do today?

They (2 kitties) take turns laying on me to sleep.

Let's just say......

My mother's pit bull makes Marley look like an obedience school Mensa dog....

easygoingfemme · 11-06-2013, 07:09 AM

One of my cats spent the last two nights sleeping on my pillow, curled up next to my head, snoring. Kind of sweet, kind of annoying.

For those that haven't read the book or seen the movie, here's your reference!

(Watching thursdays episode of Greys Anatomy at this time)Well it wasn't today, but last Friday I was sitting on my couch playing fetch with my pup across the room with her rope toy. I'd throw it, she runs like crazy to get it, brings it right back and tries to put it in my hand and then pull away when I go for it. (So cute when she does this) I had previously tried a couple times to teach her to sit and STAY until I say go get it! Which has NEVER been anywhere near successful. But that day I figured I'd try again. So I get her toy from her and hold it up, she sits right down and lays down for it immediately, as always. Then the fun part, I tell her to stay. She cocks her head at me like hmm... So I fake throw it and she gets up and runs like mad. I go "Hey! Stay..." And show her the toy. Back at my feet she lays. I fake throw again. Same thing. Then back at my feet. Next time I fake throw she gets up and looks at me. But doesn't go. Down she lays. At this point I said "Good Girl" So now goes the real throw. She gets up, runs a couple feet. I say "Hey! Stay.." And she stops, looks at me, lets out a big grumble and lays down. You can't help but laugh here. So I go get her toy. She follows me back to the couch. Lays at my feet. I look at her and say Stay! 3 times. I throw the toy. And she doesn't flinch. I look at her and say stay... Sat there for about 30 seconds and then "Go get it!!" And she runs and brings it back! Here comes the love and scratches and a treat of course! All week we've been playin and she's perfect every time! (Back to Greys Anatomy) About 10 minutes later she's busy playing in the corner with her toy, and myself, a sometimes overly emotional person, crying like a baby over the episode of Greys Anatomy on the couch. Immediately she drops her toy, runs over to me and flops her head down on my lap looking at me with those incredibly cute puppy eyes. You could see the worry and love in her. This made me cry even more because my reason for getting her was my dad is ill and I was feeling pretty down and thought maybe a puppy would bring joy to all of us. At that moment I thought about how fun it has been to play with her and train her and teach her new tricks, and how proud I was when she learned them such as that one I had tried over and over and she just learned 10 minutes prior. I knew through all these crazy puppy stages

and vet bills

and everything we've been through in the last 10 months that this was exactly what I needed and wanted at this time in my life. Everyone thought this was a bit hectic of a time for me to get a Puppy but I know we are a perfect match and have made each others lives so enjoyable. #Proud/Happy Mama

princessbelle · 11-06-2013, 12:21 PM

Bella and i watched a scary movie this morning.

She jumped worse than i did. Not sure if it was the sounds or maybe she felt my fear.

So we were like jumping beans with the covers pulled up around our chins peeping out watching ghosts with bad intentions.

Eeeeks.

The first time I read this, I read...."watching ghosts with bad intestines." and then I thought, well of course I'd be scared of THAT.

cinnamongrrl · 10-23-2014, 07:12 AM

I confess...

I've started dressing my poodle...out of necessity. He's chilly since he was groomed...so my mom sent him a winter coat...and I got him a Carolina blue argyle (sp?) Sweater...people think he's a girl now but he is happy and warm so there

Chad · 10-23-2014, 05:52 PM

My cats slept, ate, drank the cool water and then looked out the window for me.

SleepyButch · 10-23-2014, 07:10 PM

My dog Murphy, went under this big bush in the yard, the bottom branches being right at the height of his back and started scratching himself. He was moving his back legs up and down and it looked like he was dancing. What a silly dog! Love that guy!!

Blade · 10-25-2014, 06:33 AM

Nothing yet. He has spent the night between my knees. He hasn't moved all night and Im not sure I'm going to be able to move when he finally does. I might be stuck this way. My roomie might have to hook a come along to my door and drag me to my feet.

Actually I'm not sure he is still living. He is never this still this long.

cinnamongrrl · 10-25-2014, 09:21 AM

My poodle made me feel guilty with his "you're not really leaving???" Look before work today...

Kenna · 11-01-2014, 08:51 PM

Since I got home after a long day out, my pup has misbehaved several times...resulting in me having to fuss at him because he's sooooo smart, I KNOW he knows better than breaking certain rules...

A few minutes ago, I sat back in the recliner, lounging on my left side with my legs folded over the chair arm...
My bad, rotten pup (who had just got in trouble) sat on the floor "asking permission" to jump up...when I allowed him up, I looked down at him and said "you better give me a hug!"....

He very promptly, very sweetly and gently laid the side of his face and shoulder on my chest and looked up at me...as if to say "I'm sorry momma, I won't pick on my brother anymore."...

He just melted my heart!!...it wasn't long ago that I taught him the "give me a hug" trick...he doesn't always do it, but tonight was the sweetest hug yet! ...I wish I would have taught him that years ago when he was a therapy dog.
He's too damn adorable and loves to get hugs as much as I love to hug him. He's always been a fluffy, very loving cuddle bug.

Martina · 11-01-2014, 11:07 PM

I have no idea what my cats are doing because they are in California, and I am in Florida. BUT, I just made arrangements for pet transport, and they should be here before Thanksgiving. Talk about something to be grateful for. I miss them so. I can't wait to see them chasing each other around their new home.

Kenna · 11-02-2014, 09:37 PM

My rotten pup is up to his bad antics again...
I had been cuddling with him on one recliner...got up to get something, went back to livingroom to find that he had stolen my fluffy bathrobe from the other recliner, pulled it to the big recliner, and was "fluffing it" to make himself a nest.

I was not happy (he needs a bath!!) but the look on his face was priceless!

cinnamongrrl · 11-03-2014, 04:08 AM

My poodle shared hummus with me...he LOVES it lol

MsTinkerbelly · 11-03-2014, 11:42 AM

Our dog is sitting thisclosetome, and has burrowed under my lap blanket.

Chilly morning here!

cinnamongrrl · 11-10-2014, 05:59 AM

my very young kitten, Lola Mia, finally recognized toys!

Up until now she has played with imaginary things....or my fingers/face.

Yay to no more bites and scratches!

cinnamongrrl · 12-18-2014, 08:08 PM

I could post in here daily....

So ...today Jacques and the kitten (I haven't OFFICIALLY named her yet...I know...) were frolicking on the recliner....the kitten grabbed hold of Jacques and he jumped down, dragging her behind him....

I find it endlessly funny when cats fall...so long as they aren't hurt...she is no exception....

Both of them revealed to me today a love of pasta...they shared mine with me....who knew??

girl_dee · 12-18-2014, 08:38 PM

i found my pups hiding spot.. a whole pile of treasures behind the couch...
