Ok guys, if you don't know it yet, you will know it now...I'm absolutely CRAZY about cats! I have 2, an orange and white fireball named Mia who is almost 2 years old, and a tiger striped stinker (not as in she stinks but as in shes spoiled rotten!) named Annie. Annie is about 6 months old. I just thought I would post a few photos.

Any other members who have pets, please post them here! I love to see animals.

We dont have any children other then our four legged critters. Animals are so awesome because of their unconditional love. You can be having the worst day and a little love from one of them and things don't seem as bad. The white and red one is Pepper, rat terrior we have had for 5 years. Black and white one is Ladybug she is 1 year old, and our beloved kitty (who loves my hubby more) is Crybaby, she found us about 2 years ago. She and Pepper travel with us all the way from Oklahoma City to Anchorage Alaska, in January 2005.

Post `em if you got `em!!

I'd post mine but there is no URL for them.

P-Nut. I'm sorry for your loss. I can very much relate. They are family and I have dogs and cats 20 years passed that I still miss, like any family member gone.

I sure do like your kitty pictures (and everybody elses pet pics!). I just love it when kitties snuggle! I would love to post my kitty pics but I dont know how. I tried but it seems to be beyond my scope of expertise!!

leener & j.s., if you want to e-mail me the pics, I'd be happy to post them for you. My e-mail address is tricia@triciakutz.com.

My baby is a spoiled rotten siamese named Niele.

She's beautiful!! My first cat ever was a siamese, I still miss her.

Oh my....I just love all these babies!! I can't remember a time in my life that I haven't had a pet. I hope my kids say the same thing. My first poodle lived to be 17.5 yrs old. They are like children. :eekB:

I want to see more........

I have a yellow lab named Casey. She was a rescue with pups. We got her from someone who had gotten her from her rescuers and couldn't keep her. She is a big baby, spoiled rotten and loved alot. We got her a month after my black lab, Jazz, died from cancer. She has helped to fill a big void. lbtpics.doc

Black & White Female's name is Sylvester AKA "Trouble", Grey & White Male is our only son named Mouse AKA "Old Man"; Calico Female's name is Julie AKA "Fat Cat".

My first cat was a female Siemese named Panda. She was an adult cat given to me by a friend of my parents. She was a great cat! We had her 10 years when she died of kidney failure. Fortunately at the time we had 8 other cats to console us.

When I got my calico six years ago I was suprised when my vet told me all calicos are female, since then I've realized all calicos I had known and have met since are female....I wonder why that is.

Here are some of my two and four leggers:

Not all are females, but the majority are. Males occur in about 1 in 3000 calico-colored cats and are typically sterile. For odd genetic reasons, it takes two XX chromosomes for a cat to be calico-colored. So, a male calico-colored cat would require two XX and one Y chromosome, hence the rarity.

Our red miniature poodle, Mr. Hobbs, enjoying his first snow:

My Jeter. He died last October with Cushings Disease. However, he is forever in my heart.

I love all the pics!!! My cat, Bailey, will hunt a pic of hm tomorrow,(too close to bedtime to think clearly tonight!!!) is full of attitude...most of it bad, he had a poor disposition as a kitten and it has failed to improve. He takes a few strokes, and then bites or scratches. He is beautiful long black & white hair with the most distinctive figurations on his little face...looks like a little Jack-o-lantern! Well maybe not little, he is 17 pounds of catitude. Little beast, I do love him! I figure I too have a bad attitude, and my folks kept me....so we kept him, and he is now 13 years old!!!

Heather my "Kat" is short for Kathy, which in turn is short for Kathleen. However one of my good friends, also a Kat is short for Katrina! You'll find a way!!!
