      You’ve got a menagerie!

      Tell them all that Lemmy says hi.

        I do! I’d love to have more birds, but $$$ and space lol. I will tell the dogs that Lemmy says hi. I can’t see my birds or cats until January at least because I had foot surgery and I’m staying with my parents until I can drive. My parents are taking care of the critters at my house for me and I have the dogs with me at my parents’ place.

    Not sure where else to post this. This is my boy Balto (the full husky), who unfortunately passed away during an emergency surgery on Monday to correct a diaphragm hernia. I’m going to miss him forever.

      I’m so sorry to hear that. He looks very happy in these photos and I’m sure he loved the life you gave him.

      I’m so sorry to hear that.

      But on a lighter note, I glad to see I’m not the only person with dogs that lay next to their beds instead of on them.

        Yes, still in shock over this happening. He was only 2. We had no idea he might not have made it out of that surgery.

          I had a similar experience a few years ago with gizmo, an extraordinary feline. I’m sure both are in a good place and forever alive in our hearts anyway.

            Thank you for the kind words. We are still in so much pain from his loss. We did not expect to lose him during this surgery, especially at just 2 years old. I have to tell myself that we did the right thing and gave him the best year of life that any dog could ever possibly ask for.

      Ah, the classic cool down posture to prevent core overheat.

      Aw man, Monday, you’re still in the first week of that. Here’s a hug. Won’t help with the pain, it gets better though.

        Thanks. He was a silly little dog and we loved all of his antics. Full of personality. Shame he was taken from us so soon.

    Sparrow is staying with us this week and she’s making it extremely difficult to Lemmy right now

    Also been taking quite the interest in my knitting (as well as favourite pastime, leaving soggy bits of carrot all over the floor)

    One day I’ll wake up and my hand will have atrophied due to no circulation. But that will have been worth it. He’s usually the chief of security around here, this is the only time he dares to doze off into a deep slumber cause he knows someone is looking out for him and the general situation.

        Yeah. I mean, apart from looking comfortable as hell, he also… purrs? There’s no better word for it. Whenever he’s very comfy he just purrs as good as a dog can do. I guess he spent too much time with the cats at the shelter.

      Hi Ozzy and Kyubey!

      I bet they just watched it and never actually caught it.

      2 posed and one is indifferent. Does that fit their personalities? Lol

        The indifferent is Viktor and he doesn’t care about anything other than food. The other one in the back is Joe and he hates getting his picture taken despite how photogenic he is. And Chloe is old and kind of a bitch.
