    We have a gigantic (20 pound) cat, who is a big spoiled baby. We love her to pieces though. As a pet owner and animal lover, I'm curious about other MFP users' animal friends.

    Ah heck that is small!! I have one 20 lb Maine Coon, one 18 lb Black Long Hair and one 25 lb Manx!! They are all big babies!! The Manx is all light grey... so his name is Fat Ash!! :wink:

    We have an 65lb dog named Hennessey (Brindle Pitbull) - whom believe's she is the size of a teacup chihuahua - she is spoiled rotten, overly excited and a bed hog! But, we love her to pieces so over the years my fiance and I have adjusted to all her 'needs' (example: learning to sleep smooshed up together on one side of the bed to accomidate her lol and her desire to lay in your lap and watch tv)

    Lets see, I have 4 dogs as you can see from my profile pic. All of them have their own special personality and I love everyone of them, especially the ****zu, she's my baby (not the youngest). They definitely make my day when I come home from work and they are so excited to see me.

    I have a domestic cat, named Black Kitty

    I also have about 10 "extra" kitties, they live downtown where I work, they are a feral colony. I feed them daily, I even go down there Sat/Sun

    They follow my car like kids following the Pied Piper because they know i'm going to put food down LOL...a couple of them even let me get a quick rub in but I try not to indulge too often. I don't want them to get to used to people and someone come by and try to hurt them! me wuvs them. :smile:

    Three female parakeets I think they are 3 years old now. I had 4 but one died on Independence Day this year. The one that died was a male.

    I have 2 cats! 'Charlie' is 17 pounds and is a PITA... he's a year old and is very jealous of my new baby...he's peed in the carseat twice... I told him "one more time...if you pee or poop anywhere that's not your litter box and you're going outside"
    Then there's 'Lucy'...she's a sweetheart, but she won't do anything without Charlie... I swear! I've never seen 2 cats eat/drink from the same bowl (at the same time) in my whole life, but she'll only eat if Charlie's eating... so weird!

    When a cat pees somewhere other than his little box it can be a sign of a urinary tract infection. You should have him checked out by your vet before you toss him out.

    More often than not, when a normally good kitty starts peeing somewhere he/she shouldn't, sumpin' ain't right. I believe this is typical behavior for a jealous kitty when a new "attention ho" comes on the scene. Make sure you don't ignore him. Give him extra attention whenever possible. Also, remember positive reinforcement is the only way to teach a kitty. Never yell or hit. That will just make the behavior worse. You need the guy from the show "My Cat From Hell" on the Animal Planet Channel. Maybe he has some tips on the website? http://animal.discovery.com/tv/my-cat-from-hell/

    I have a cat called Poppy, he is about 6 years old and gets the hell pampered out of him by my 16 year old daughter.
    and a Miniature Schnauzer dog called Mollie, (profile pic) she is just over a year old and is the baby of the house, totally spoiled rotten, great to see the cat and dog getting along so well in the house. they are both totally adorable.

    We have 3 dogs (Gracie - Australian Cattle dog mix, Ellie - Chocolate Lab mix, and Toby - Dachshund), a diabetic cat - Oliver, and a corn snake - Cornelius. We got Gracie from a no-kill shelter, Ellie and Toby were foster dogs we ended up adopting, and Oliver was a stray. I LOVE my babies! :happy:

    I have three wonderful cats, all rescues. My oldest (4 y/o) is Millie (short for Milagra, which is miracle in Spanish). She thinks she's human and absolutely loves yogurt. Next two are both a little over 2 y/o. Nya (meow in Japanese) she's a little scaredy cat and runs under the bed anytime people knock at the door. She LOVES to play fetch with her little foam balls (she must think she's a dog) and finally is Tabitha. Tabs weighs about 14 lbs and is just a lover. They are all indoor cats though I have tried leash training the oldest but she seems to be a Houdini with her harness so she doesn't get to go out much for that reason. They are all wonderful friends not only to me but to each other. Wouldn't trade them for the world. My kids tell me I love the cats more than I love them...they're right! LMAO!

    Here's our beautiful 3 1/2 year old black lab. He's a big boy - 110 pounds, but he's not overweight. He's just big.

    Ive been keeping my eye on him... its been a couple weeks now and he hasn't done anything since. And he only peer on the caraway and not any of the other baby stuff so I doing know if maybe the baby's diaper leaked and the cat was trying to cover up the smell?

    I have two cats, which i can never seem to find around because they are always sleeping in hidden places. Apparently they only come out to eat. I also have two small dogs who like to steal socks and hide them so i have lots of missing pairs :D

    I *really* miss having pets. They bring so much joy and calming natures into one's life. My cat died right after my mom died. I've been back and forth across the country for the estate so I haven't been able to get a new pet and **I SO MISS THEM**

    Tuff - a border collie that is a best friend to my children, and my favorite walking partner.
    Stickers - a kitten we found under our semi and raised from 2 weeks old (I brought her in to die in piece and warmth... going on 5 years now!!)
    Lilac - a fluffy wimp of a cat, but patiently waits for the alarm to go off before she bugs me in the morning!
    A gerbil named Spice
    Then the 7 horse and the 400+ cattle, not really pets but they still provide enjoyment!

    I have one cat now (my second died recently), her name is Misskin. She's 5, and she's very lovely and friendly.

    This is Gizmo. She was hit by a car two months ago - on my birthday! :( The family was devastated. She was only 4. She was incredibly silly, she climbed curtains, ran around, chased anything and everything. Ah, I can't do her personality justice by trying to explain. She was just hilarious and sweet and crazy. R.I.P.

    IMG_0521.jpg

    Miss you Gizmo <3
