Apollo Battles The Stairs

Submitted by beckyogg

The other week, my boyfriend and I were sitting at the bottom of my stairs, cuddling and acting cute and doing our usual sickeningly sweet act. My orange tabby, Apollo, decided that we weren’t the only ones who could have fun on the stairs.

Dexter Loves Animal Planet!

Submitted by mazsdps

I rescued a poodle I named Dexter. He has quite the personality and loves everyone and everything except dogs or cats on TV. We we watching the Animal Planet one evening and out of nowhere Dexter starts barking at the tv and jumping about 4 ft in the air. When the show was over he started going around to the back of the tv, I guess he thought they would come out that way.

Well, that was about [...]

Tom And The Dollhouse

Submitted by Egad!

Our cat, Tom, has always been an odd duck. Shes just a regular tabby cat that we got from the local rescue/pound/whathave you. Shes not terribly friendly but can be very affectionate and vocal when she deems it is time for pets.

Anywho, I grew up with a plastic dollhouse, fairly small rooms. Tom decides she wants to explore. So she hops up onto the table it is sitting on and pokes her head in the one of [...]

Tarquin: The Door Climber

Submitted by Chajara

Our cat, Tarquin, has a bit of a habit of getting into things. The apartment building hallway, closets, cabinets, behind the entertainment center where all the wires are, into my bedroom closet where my plants and a bunch of junk lurk, anything he’s not supposed to be in that he probably can’t get out of by himself.
His new thing lately is the tops of doors.

Blackie, The Guinea Pig Who Needs A Lady Friend

Submitted by Serella

My family used to keep guinea pigs when I was a kid, and our very first pair was male-female, due to pet store missexing. Well, one thing led to another and we ended up with a few more pigs. We ended up keeping two, a pair of females. Each of the four guinea pigs lived in their own cages and occasionally we’d swap around a shoebox with one end cut off as a little house for them.

Now, our [...]

Poochy: The Couch Rubber

Submitted by Cuckoo

I had to change states for college, but my mom has 2 cats and a dog. (gray tabbies, boston terrier.) The Boston’s name is Poochy - shut up, I named her when I was 12 - and despite being 8 1/2 years old she still has freakish levels of puppy energy and is obsessed with playtime. All of the animals get along fine, and of course since I moved out the house they all want mom’s attention when [...]
