The Pets of NMA!

Kooikerhond (cage-dog) - bred for its tail and quietness in duck catching. Small number of dogs (all pedigreed - about 20.000).

Her name: Zajrha Gaelica van Muskyteira (but we call her Femke)

This breed is also shown on a number of Jan Steen's painting (famous 17th century painter) namely:

'In weelde siet toe' 1663
'Het doktersbezoek' (Doctor's visit)- ca 1660
'Het huwelijk' (The Marridge)
'Het Driekoningenfeest' - 1668
All by Jan Steen

'Meifeest' - 1700 by Richard Brakenburg
'Vrouw leest brief' (woman reading letter) - 1665 Richard Terborgh
 
I have 3 kids, though one is still in the womb for the time being (until sometime in early December).

I used to have a yellow Labradore Retriever. Once we move and get settled I'm getting another Lab. I'm not to picky about the colors, but would probably like another yellow one.
 
I have a Kerry Blue Terrier. I don't have any pics of him here, but this is one from the same "line", and he's a dead ringer for mine ...

I used to have a Golden Retreaver, and before that a Black Lab mix. My wife used to have German Shepherds.

Right now we got a couple of squirrels and a couple of regular birds that sponge food off us.

I think a squirrel is little more than a cute rat. Ever see one of those up close.

"Black eyes, black soulless eyes, like a doll's eyes." (movie quote).

Oh and on dogs, this is kind of cool.

I want to go to New Guinea to get a dog that sings.
 
I have a cat, a grey cat. Not much to say about my cat exept that she's grey. I call her Richard..
 
I have a dog. His name is Duke. He is the most badass dog out there. He wears gold chains and has pierced ears with pirate earrings. He doesn't really, but that would be pretty great.
He is a Lab. When he perks his ear, he looks like King Tut. He also eats a lot. That's about it.
 
I have a cat at home, but I live in a university residence where we're not allowed to have pets. So I have a pet rock. :D

That sounds like my cat, Midnight.

I have 2 Ferrets, which are fun as hell to play with, as when they get wound up they bounce around like they were wired on Ferret tone. The Ferret version of catnip.

Cotton is a VERY destructive and cute kitten who is a terror and will one day destroy the earth. Rajah is a very affectionate kitty who loves outdoors.
 
I have a ton of cats, 2 birds and a ball python.

I have WAY too many cats and pets to post pictures of, so I'll just post one of my Misty.

Her and I are inseperable, she's slept in my bed for every night of the 12.5 years I've had her. I love that cat. She had a heart attack recently along with a few other illnesses - But I am willing to sell everything I own to keep her alive (since she's not in pain or anything). It may come to that.
 
I used to have 6 cats around the house, two dogs, a canarian and fish... now I only have a canarian and fish, stupid fish, in a fishbowel... OH and Jimmy! He guards my parents lands, big black dog, fun dog... we called him Jimmy 'cause he kind'a looks like Jimmy Hendrix (no disrespect to the late musician whatsoever)
 
Wow, so many cute pets :)

At my home we've had a lot of pets. This includes a pletora of tropical fish in large aquarium, dogs, and also turtles ina tank in our front yard.
Presently we only have cats. Two dynasties of them (and considering cats are matriarcal, cause the female is the one who owns the teritory among them, you can imagine now and them they make huge fights...)

They are cute, fast, smart. They catch birds in the flight, they come home with rats I dont know how long they had to travel to get. They are sweet attention demanders and also tender lapwarmers.

The looks? One "dinasty" is of siamese (yeah that short fur that grows darker in the extremities such as nose and ears and paws, and those striking blue eyes). The other "dinasty" is mixed breed of siamese. The pure siamese used to have her siamese mate, but since he died she had a variety of different mixed breed kittens (including one batch that had fur as long as Slámak's koska's ). This long fur kitten we kept. Presently we have in the house about seven cats of different ages.

Cats, there's no animal I know of with more personality than a cat.

I swear you said the exact same thing a few years back(freakish memory). It's very true though, cats are amazing.

Personally I've got one knucklehead Golden, and 2 cats, one of which weighs 17 lbs. and acts accordingly. The other is something like 6 lbs. and also acts according. Sounds kind of like Darkshade's pet situation... weird.

BTW: Bill Maher is on, that man is a genius. :idea:
 
Cats can be so funny, you have to earn thier affection. My cat Rajah falls aslep on my lap all the time.
 
I took a polaroid of my dead rabbit. But I don't have a scanner. It's quite morbid, because the neighbor's dog got at it, mauling it to death. I don't know why I took the picture. Guess it was one of those times that the Polaroid camera was just sitting there, and look there's a dead rabbit, hey, picture time.
 
well i used to have 2cats.. they wore the nicest cats i had eer seen. they stayed with me for about 16years.. but than one of cancer and the other of loneliness ..

im still not over it :(:(:(
