Mmmm drinkable chocolate. Thanks!

Oooh puppy! I'm assuming yours -- name?

Odin! He's ten years old, I think. He might be nine.

We have another dog named Thor, also a German Sheppard, three or four years younger. He's almost completely black. *stops herself from prattling on about her dogs*

Oh honey, you are definitely allowed. I have four cats -- It's an act of God keeping me from going squee about them all the time.

I really should do a voice post of how I talk to my kitties. It's horrible.

Kitties! Our last cat got along quite well with the dogs, once they learned not to mess with him. You can't see it in this picture, but Odin still has scars on his nose from where Olaf showed him who's boss.

And my dad is the one who names all the pets, hence the names. He got to name my brother and I, too. *wry*

I...really don't want to see my cats having to get used to a dog again. We had a dachshund for awhile, but eventually we adopted the dog out of the house because the cats never accepted him.

All my cats (that we named) are named after movie characters.

Lego - short for Legolas. White with blue eyes. I have an Orlando Bloom thing.
Rhett - Rhett Butler, Gone With the Wind.
Chan - Charlie Chan. Also apparently a cartoon show?

We had the dogs first. No, that's not right. We had Odin first, then rescued Olaf out of the tree (he was an alleycat at heart and made sure we never forgot it), and then got Thor. We also had a female cat for awhile, and she had kittens while with us. The dogs were very good about them, and though we made sure to watch to be sure nothing happened, they mostly ignored the little fuzzballs. We gave the mother and kittens to an adoption organization when they were old enough.

It must be nice to name animals like that. The names I can remember, in order of having the pet, are:

Ragnar - Lab mix, named for the father Viking in The Vikings (movie)
Fenris - white Sheppard, named for Loki's wolf son
Loki - Sheppard, named for the trickster god, Loki (he lived up to his name)
Ivar - Samoyed, don't know who he was named for
Odin - Sheppard, named for the top Viking god, Odin
Thor - Sheppard, named for Odin's son, the thunder god

I think I love that you named a cat for Rhett. *grins*

[muji]

:D It's funny because, now that I'm home from school, the cats have more or less adopted a different person in the house. Rhett is my mom's -- he's a mix, but he's big and long-haired and fluffy with Siamese coloring. Someone called him a Southern gentleman, and Mom named him Rhett.

My current cat, much by accident, is Tyger. Orange tabby, pretty young, Mom and my brother cat-sit him while I was in Italy in May for one of my mom's teacher friends. She ended up not being able to take him back, and when I came home, he and I hit it off, so we ended up keeping him.

D: He follows me around! And like...he pets *me*.

*amused* I love cats. I love dogs, too, but they rarely have a personality the way a cat does.

[muji]

My cat is a lolcat waiting to happen. I really just need to take thirty seconds and a camera.

You should have met my dog. She played practical jokes, managed to escape from every fence we ever owned, and when she was very young would go out and play tag with the fawns in the field.
