The Pet Thread

RickFLM4 · 07-13-2023, 05:20 PM

Our in-laws have been staying with us for a few weeks now. Ginger loves it and spends most of the day with them. Winston, on the other hand, seems to have had enough and prefers to stay with me all day in my office.

My favorite closeup was in anemone - not coral. I may have posted this a little while back. Both clowns died recently...had them for over 20 years.

Of the coral I had, this shot from inside the tank was one of my favorites.

Since I have a nano tank, my colorful and small options for fish are limited, though I make do. Clown fish are almost a mandatory with anemones, they just pair so well together. That’s a interesting perspective of the coral with the water reflection. Thanks for sharing 😀

Everyone said don't live close to the in-laws...but you know what, they go home at the end of the day

My daughter always brings her pup up here...one of mine will play with it for a while, but always seems to get his fill after an hour or so. Wifey thinks I'm nuts...but I think he's glad when his cousin leaves.

Our original (Patches) was rude about it. She'd be happy to see people when they arrived, but within an hour or two, she would either stare at them to ask them to leave or retire to the master bedroom to get away from the noise.

My dad made the mistake of sitting in my spot, which was her spot when I wasn’t there. She had her own set of rules and it was up to everyone else to figure them out and live by them.

My in-laws make an hour drive almost every weekend just to take their grand-dog (aka: OCD psycho dog) out for a day's adventure. He loves his grandma even more than his mommy, and the in-laws spend all week making plans for where they'll be going the next weekend.

I joke with my wife that her parents love the dog more than her and me, because they bolt for the door as soon as they drop him off when their adventure du jour is over.....

I'd like to say that is odd...but my wife's parents take my dogs every Wednesday, for no reason other than that once per week visit.

My pups are so spoiled.

Our in laws are loving the dogs and Ginger is really loving them. Nice to her, no rules and they make crumbs.

^ Nice. He looks like a big strong cat. What’s his name? I like to know the names of the pets here.

Maynard · 07-15-2023, 08:10 AM

I'm thinking "Prisoner 451666" ?

He looks stout. That looks like a cat NOT to be messed with. And the name fits imo.

Toughest looking cat here, so far.

They are not identical twins. Although both are beautiful, are they even the same breed?

He's just a pound kitty-- no special breed.

I don't have any other good pictures, but they do look very similar.

Esteban · 07-16-2023, 12:54 PM

Will F36Donut tell us what breed Axel is? Or is he a mixed breed, like so many cats, including mine. That last pic above of Axel is very majestic.
