I LOVE ANIMALS!! So I wanna hear about all your pets -- names, funny things they do, etc.
Some of favorite names that I've given my pets:
Edgar-Fat-N-Belly
Purrfection
Algernon
Jinx - black cat that crossed my path
My fav pet story of all time:
Poochie was a dog we had rescued from an abusive home. Before we could get her spayed, she got out and got pregnant. Well after we gave her puppies away, we found this little black cat who was the runt of the litter and its mother had tried to kill it (you know - stronger species survives) so we rescued him. Poor thing weighed all of a couple ounces and his head was twice as big as his body from where she had tried to suffocate him. Well after a day, the cat disappeared, and we thought it had died outside -- then we noticed Poochie wouldn't come inside except to eat and then she'd go right back out....2 weeks later, Poochie comes up to the front door with this huge cat by her side -- she had nursed Algernon back to health!! Is that not the sweetest thing? Algernon is slightly mentally retarded (no joke) and he only has a few teeth from where the others never developed properly, but he is the sweetest most loving cat. When Poochie died, he would just lay on her grave and meow to beat the band. He knew that's where she was because we had put her toys on top and Algernon could smell them. When we adopted a new puppy from the shelter, she was a runt too -- well what do you know, Algernon took right to her and would cuddle with her at night so she wouldn't be lonely, and to this day they are best of friends!
