I made this thread for those of you who are fond of your family pets. Share pictures and there backgrounds.

Here are mine, Dusty & Angel :

Great cats, very fat. Dusty weighs 26 pounds while Angel weighs about 14 pounds. Dusty is the gray one that looks like a raccoon, and Angel is the Sandy brown one that has the pretty eyes. They are both so cool, and I wouldn't trade them for the world. We've had them for about 9 months and they are really special to our family. We adopted them from the SPCA and they were 4 years old. They were abandoned by 2 college roommates who were unable to take care of them. The living conditions were harsh for them, and they were obviously fed something too much. Angel was beaten which makes here a tad more skittish than Dusty. Angel is really dependent on humans, and hates to be alone. She favors me, and is always crying for me, especially at night. At about 6 PM, Angel will let loose a symphony of MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEOOWs that will ring in your ears for much longer. She waits at the foot of my bed for me to enter the room and she wont get on the bed until I'm laying situated. She is sweet and has tremendously soft fur. She has never scratched, hissed, or been aggressive to anyone in our home or visitors. Dusty is probably the most mellow and easy going cat there is. He will let almost anyone pick him up, squeeze him, scratch him, or anything another cat would hate. Unlike most normal cats, Dusty's favorite thing is to have a belly rub. He will get on his back and wait until someone starts to rub away. It is a funny site to see him waddle down the stairs, taking each step with tremendous care, when a normal weight cat would take 5 at a time.

Besides being fed the obvious wrong thing by their previous owners, these cats are over wight probably because they were stuck in a 2 by 4 cage for 6 months, with nothing to do but eat, sleep and poop. It took them a while to get adjusted to the system: You have to walk to get places. They are definitely adjusting and I'm happy to say that they are enjoying their stay!

I have an obese guinea pig named Ginny. She is white with cream (orange for those who don't know guinea pig colors) Dutch marks. I used to have a guinea pig named Ginger that was from the SPCA, but she died of a jaw problem. :'( Maybe we gave her too much Vitamin C...

Here is my cat Mia:

My little pet, live in my garden, named Zeboruco, sometimes have a bad ideas over me, but generally, is a sweet bull. Is an original Vitorino, from Caseres, Spain.

^ Can you rub his belly?

A rabbit named peanut. Odd colors..... He is Brown,Blk, White, and grey all in 1 rabbit!
EDIT: He is housetrained, so he can roam around freely.

@KKB

Do you saw what a big thing have in his "belly"??
No man, sometimes I just can rub his horn.

Here's our doggies, Dodie and Belle-

Crazy pair. The little one thinks she's tough, but ol' Belle just puts her in her place

@Matador- nice- just stay away from the pointy end (my neighbors would freak if I had that pet)

^ Did your grey dog just lay an egg? :P

@Matador, rub his horn....OLe'!!! %)

@KKB Well, only when Seboruco sleep. I'm brave, not stupid, lol.

@LGM, my neighbors also are Toreros, so no problem.
