Pictures of EVERYONE! *IMG heavy*

Ritz459 · 10-12-2007, 01:52 PM

Here are up to date pictures of everybody. The dogs, the cats, the bird, the rodents, and the ferrets.

As of now, I still don't have pictures of Chloe, Blackie, or Rose, but oh well. I'll get their pictures later this afternoon. I'm also going to try and get a video of Casey and Dameon playing, for all of you who have never seen a ferret's dance. It is too cute for words!

So first things first. Enjoy!

Say hello to the kitties:

Here's old man Rush. He's going to be fifteen next year. He's having some issues now with an enflamed pancreas, but meds will help that. But since the stupid cat refuses to take pills....he just throws up AWFULLY every night. Aside from that, the Dr. said, "He is in excellent shape for a '92 model." lol

He's straight but the rooms crooked...oh well. I tried. He was right by a window and it was weird lighting. At least he doesn't have a glare. He was pawing at me because he wanted attention.

Introducing.....Pheobe! She's around four months old now (was four weeks the first of July so....). Yes, I know, she's fat. We're going to cut down on her food. She's going to go in to be spayed some time in the next couple of weeks and she's also going to be declawed. Not my first choice, but she's mom's cat, and it's not my new leather furniture she's tearing up. But my throbbing thumb from where she got got me nice and deep because I tried to pick her up while she was attacking Chloe isn't complaining too much...

Next on the list, the bird.

Here is my birdie Joseph (Joey), a white faced Cockatiel. He'll be two years old (I think....either that or three) in May. His favorite thing to say is, "Joey's a pretty bird, momma says." He also likes to whistle the Phantom of the Opera theme song and just say, "Pretty bird" along with a wolf whistle. lol At first he was curious about the camera, and then he just wanted me to get the freaking thing away from him.

Next are the rodents.

First is Bonnie, my 2 1/2 year old Dwarf Hamster. Something is wrong with her eye, and her back legs are screwed up. She has problems moving around and she is also starting to loose fur, but she is still as gentle as always. These aren't the greatest pictures, but I made the mistake of taking them at night when she wanted to get up and run around.

Next, Tobias, my brother's spastic rodent. He's a Gerbil and is approximately a year old. Not only is he a spastic rodent who loves to dig, but he has a habit of attacking anything that comes in/near his cage...so I was smart and took these pictures after I had woke him up so he wasn't hyper.

Freddie's next! He will be three years old in December. He has trouble making it up the ramp in his cage, but he is still a sweet old guy and is going strong. He's my little fuzz ball.

Lucy's turn! She is roughly four years old and is F-A-T. I don't know why she is, she just is. Oh well. She's a sweet heart. I have her a box to hide in/chew up and she loved it - instead of chewing it up she's been sleeping in it.

Now for the Ferrets. You have no idea how hard it was to photograph these two buggers. They would strike a cute pose, and I'd click the little button...and as soon as the camera would take the picture they'd move, so all I had on my screen was a big blur. Dumbos.

Here's Casey. She'll be three in January, but is still as spunky, playful, and sweet as ever! These pictures are dark, and I apolagize. She had just woken up so these are all I-want-to-stretch-and-sleep-some-more shots.

And last but not least, Dameon Michael, my evil ferret. He loves to sleep, eat, bounce around once or twice then sleep, and bite people. But he's a dear and loves to be cuddled. He'll be two in January. Just look at those chompers!

Phew, I'm exhausted. And I still have three dogs to photograph!

LOL

I love all your babies! And now I want a birdie to whistle the Phantom of the Opera soundtrack.

lol If I wasn't so afraid of them and they weren't so messy... lol You made me want another hammie, too!

OneCrazyDogOwner · 10-12-2007, 02:30 PM

Aww your babies are soo cute! I love ferrets.. I use to have one.

Joey is a sweetheart.

I first bird, a Budgie, was a nasty biter. She drew blood from me a couple of times. Joey, while being a bit "beaky", has never once even left a mark on me. He sings the tune of the , "In sleep he sang to me, in dreams he came. That voice which calls to me, and speaks my name." Then he just blabbers on. LOL We don't notice his mess of food because Chloe is our vaccum. But he has downy feathers and dander EVERYWHERE.

Thanks!

Here are some pictures of Chloe!

She's a Collie/Australian Shepherd mix and is about 7 months old now. She is finally starting to understand the rules of the house, and at least with me, has improved greatly. I took her on a walk in town yesterday and she did WONDERFUL. I was shocked. LOL Out here when we walk by the random person she gets very uptight and she doesn't like passing other dogs or cars, not to mention what happens if she sees a squirrel. In town we had people passing us left and right, some with dogs, and there were geese and cars...she wasn't fazed one bit and behaved.

Made me proud. She's still a little poo head though.

***Rivsky*** · 10-12-2007, 04:48 PM

Loved the pics. Chloe really is losing that puppy look isn't she - if that makes any sense!!

IceyBlueSibes · 10-12-2007, 04:56 PM

Loved all of the pics! Everyone looks great!

Wow, I can't believe how fast Phoebe has grown! She doesn't look fat to me

And Chloe... my she sure knows how to put that "cute face" on doesn't she? lol "Me? Crazy? Naahh, I'm an angel!"

Snoopy · 10-13-2007, 02:02 AM

*would like to point out that Rita has only Blacki and rose to take pics of*

k9hullio_sam · 10-13-2007, 07:22 AM

Everyone is soo cute! I love that last ferret picture, and Chloe looks so grown up already!!

oc_spirit · 10-13-2007, 08:07 AM

Great pictures of everyone!!! I love the ferrets!!

Man I would have pegged Chloe as an English Shepherd LOL She's a cutie!

I know what you mean. When I compare Chloe's pictures now to her as a puppy I think, "Where did my cute little fuzz ball go?" lol

Pheobe is chubby. She's starting to get fat pouches like Rush. And considering she eats about a cup of food a day and with her weight and age she's only supposed to have a half cup....we're decreasing her food amount. LOL
Chloe is VERY deceptive. LOL She has this sweet little face and sweet little expression...and then WHAM! She just got a bath today, so I'll take another picture of her for you guys.

I know, I know....I'm heading outside right after this to take their pictures.

Wow! Chloe does look like that, only she has a more slender head and floppier ears. Whenever I look at her I can't decide if she looks more like a Collie or if she looks more like an Aussie. She is the perfect 50/50 split of the two breeds. And depending on her mood is how her ears look. In the first picture of her she was relaxed, so they were floppy like an Aussie's. When she is interested in something they prick up into the prick/fold of the Collie's. LOL

Okay, going to go take Blackie and Rose's picture now!

Ritz459 · 10-13-2007, 12:05 PM

Here is the last of the bunch!

About twelve more pictures. lol

So first, I'm going to give you more pictures of Chloe, as she is just so darn cute. The first picture is what I was talking about concerning her ears. I love her ears, they are so cute.

Now here are Blackie and Rose all in a bunch. Blackie will be twelve in January, and Rose just turned nine. Do you guys think Blackie is full Lab? We have no clue. His fur seems to be a little too thick for him to be pure, but we aren't sure.
I made the mistake of taking these pictures in our expired garden....although I guess it gives you a hint about both of their personalities! While Blackie was sitting by me, Rose was off and away....she only came to me when I threatened to leave her in the garden by herself and then that was because I had a milk bone. lol

Vanilla · 10-14-2007, 08:11 AM

They are all so cute!!!Everyone is adorable.
I never seen a white faced cockatiel before.He is really cute.

And I love tha guinea pig!!! Her colors are gorgeous.

DogLover8 · 10-14-2007, 02:04 PM
