The success kitty looks exactly like Smokie - a superior animal from my childhood who somehow wandered up and adopted our family.

Looks like chow is not a problem around that household.

That was kinda tacky lodwick. Get in the spirit my man.

"I'm having one of those Twilight Zone moments...."

Don't worry, I'm much weirder in person...LOL!!

FReegards...MUD

[iceskater]

Don't worry, I'm much weirder in person...LOL!!

Oh oh!

I don't know, I'm pretty weird. After all, I am the person who gets up every day at 5am so I can go ice skate! Even on Saturdays - how weird is that?

[iceskater]

Well, I have to get going. Packing to finish, etc., etc., etc. This was a fun thread. Thanks! Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas. Be back in the New Year!

Just got online here at post #345....Read every post and enjoyed them so much-Loved hearing about different ones' pets and enjoyed all the additional pets posted.

Thank you for including Jasper in the Doggie Heaven part. I did not tell Mr. D. he was included, just told him to check out Billie's animal thread...well, he had a tear in his eye when he got to Jasper. He was so touched.

[daisyscarlett]

Good afternoon dear sistahs. What a great thread today and so nice to see all of our pets on display. Love the hostess graphic too.

Sandy, hope you get better soon. I know you will be better once you get to the Florida sunshine. What is all this about losing photos at Domania? That scares me...I am afraid to check my storage....Lori, I'll bet you have some real teddy bears in your collection bigger than your doggie Bear...he is a cutie And Billie, shame on you for leaving Roscoe out...Well, I guess you did rectify it by posting him on the thread and it was bad of him not to share that gingerbread cookie...Guess you are practicing "tough love".ha ha.

Here is our beautiful calendar page for today...

[knighthawk]

LOL!

[daisyscarlett]

oops #346 was meant for Billie....Buy hey to you r4....Chels looks great..

Merry Christmas! DaisyScarlett

[Diver Dave]

Love that photo, ru4. Reminds me of Buddy when he would climb up in the lazy-boy with me and catch a few zzzzzz'z.

We used to lull each other to sleep with our snoring. He'd be all stretched out beside me and tuck his snout under my chin and nod off.

Sometimes it would get a little uncomfortable when he would start dreaming. His dreams must have been of chasing a cat because his legs would start twitching and he'd make some wimpering crying noises. Sure miss him.

[Flyer]

Look at the feet on that puppy! I would guess he is about 5 months old. That lady must have worn him out to get him to sleep like that when there is so much to do.

[jwfiv]

Thanks, Mud...coming from a word-smith like you, I'm liable to take that as a compliment..)

[GailA]

He has to be tied with Rocky, who I know is SPOILED ROTTEN! When we get up, we put the coffee pot on, take Rocky out, then fire up the 'puter. Then we get Rocky's treat and he sits on my lap and eats it as I read FR. Then when Dennis gets up he runs to the kitchen to get his NEXT 'cookie'. When I take him out later in the day he looks for our neighbor who has bought a box of doggie biscuits for him. She doesn't have a pet. Now that is SPOILED rotten.

[lodwick]

Goodness - poochie @ 345 is zonked! Too funny.

[lodwick]

Good evening DaisyScarlett. If you didn't tear up reading the splash, I guess that you really don't belong here. Billie did a super job with this one.

Top of the evening to you and Mr.D.

[jwfiv]

Have been reading all the posts, checking out all the pictures...just wanna say again what a terrific gift you've given us Freepers today...an extra joyful thread.

[daisyscarlett]

Good to see you here. Did you say you were going to be awol for a couple of days or was that someone else?

We have not seen Fred today but that is fine. You have done more than your fair share with all the other sweet animal graphics you have posted and the stories of some of the "real" pets who have owned you in the past were so touching...

Merry Christmas! DaisyScarlett

[daisyscarlett]

Buddy sounds like he was very special and I adore the picture of he and Christian...So glad Billie included it....Bet Buddy and Christian "bonded" too. Do your grandsons have pets?

Merry Christmas! DaisyScarlett

[Feiny]

I couldn't get a photo of my dearly departed Bear to Billie in time. I was lucky enough to have his company for 13 years. These pix look kinda like him....except he was much cuter....had a spotted tongue and real goofy expressions. People always said he looked like a cartoon or a stuffed animal. He loved swimming & jumping in piles of raked leaves.

Your home page is truly inspiring. Thank you for sharing. I hope you get to be an American because you seem to me to be the kind of "immigrant" that built America, unlike those who just want to come here so that they can demand that we be something other than we are while taking whatever they can get from us without giving anything in return. Many of my ancestors were from the Netherlands (Holland then) and I have always thought that someday I would like to go there and see where they lived and learn more of the history there.
