Anyone have a pet or two that they have had through transition that's kept them company?
I have my boa, Hazard - he's a sweetie pie, and I just love him to bits. In fact, he's lounging on the back of my chair right now. Six and a half feet of love, he is.

I used to have a cat, but she was annoying. I got rid of her when I got Hazard.
Anyone else want to share? Pictures are welcome, and feel free to gush on how awesome your pet is. ;D

I have a cat, 2 rat snakes , a painted turtle and a boa constrictor. I also have a Burmese python that is between 18ft and 20 ft long.
This is Magdalene. Nice to meet you all! :laugh:

OMG! Blanche! I want a little doggy with punked out green hair! Dying your pet's hair awesome colors... I never even though of it! Yes!
I'm getting a dog now! Can you give them piercings as well? :D

Cut pets! My roommates have two cats (well, two of my roommates do, they are sisters). The cats are old, I don't like them that much. They get sick a lot, it's pretty sad actually.
I have pet plants. One is named Fred and the other is Ophelia. Yeah, I know that's weird that I have pet plants, but I like them. They are my babies. :D Most people don't get it. I've gotten a few weird looks when I introduce my plants to people with names.

yeah, cause people with names are weird...
yeah, People with name is kinda weird. LOL. Okay, I kind of goofed up in that sentence. I was tired. LOL
Oh Pica that was a funny vid. :laugh: I love your British sense of humour. :)
The dog was my granny's, when she died my uncle wanted to make him a video to prove we hadn't killed him. So I made one saying that we would.
Here's my boy... ;D

I love Staffys
I wish he were a Staffy, he'd be a lot smaller and easier to handle than 60 lbs LOL. Casey's a big ol' Pit Bull.
tells you what I know about dogs. He's got that sort of smile those sort of animals have. I like that smile a whole heap.
Oh, you were very close. They're extremely similar, Staffy's are just smaller and stockier.
Here's a smile for ya:

You feel a bit daft walking a King Charles Spaniel, I'm guessing you don't feel like that with a Pit Bull.

*Gasp!* Thank you! I think he's a very pretty boy, yes. Honestly, most people get creeped out by snakes, but I think he's just cute as a button. I love his face. He's also very affectionate and nice. I wish people weren't so scared of him.
... Although, I did name him Hazard. <_<
~ BB
Oh, I love snakes, I've just never been able to have one. Once my fiance and I get our own place we plan on getting a ball python. ;D
I know how you feel, people are always terrified of my dog. They cross the street and snatch up their children, but he's the friendliest thing ever.
I have a 15 year old cat who rules the place (and I REALLY hate sharing a bathroom with her. She doesn't so much share as allow me to use it occasionally):

And I have a 2.5 year old dog. She's the black one in this picture. The blond one was just visiting:

Sometimes the personalities get a bit too much for 400 square feet. It's going to be an interesting winter.

Peircings are kinda a bad idea on animals, because of the chance of them ripping them out accidentally. Imagine getting your earring caught on something but not having hands to free yourself.
I used to dye my dog's white ruff and tail-tip blue, with 'Manic Panic.' People thought I was evil, but he loved it and would strut around so proud. Dogs can see most colour. They cannot see red. Red things, in theory, look black or muddy-mustard colour to them, depending in the shade of red. Which explains why, if you put a red bandana on my dog he'd take it off and bury it (too plain!) but he was thrilled to be blue. The colours that look eye-catching bright to them are blue (the very slightly violet iris blue for best effect) and yellow (a very slightly green lemon yellow). This is true for most mammals, except great apes, who can see red, and certain new world monkeys, but only female ones, who also see red.

Wow Doc, I didn't know dogs can see in colour, but it does explain alot about my dog. :)
Is it true that bulls hate red?
according to mythbusters... no

Yeah, that show has certainly debunked a lot of old wives tales and theories. I wonder how these things get started though? Like not using a mobile phone at the petrol station. They proved that one wrong.

It came about because they really do use red clothes in fighting bulls. But that's so any blood doesn't show, same as red carpets.
Oh and Katia, Dante is beautiful.
