I don't mean to sound weird....but I love this thread. I love seeing so much love for animals in one place.
Oh no, it's not weird at all, that is exactly one of the reasons why I made this thread. ^^

She is! No joke, she's the softest cat I've ever touched. She eats better than I do (lol) and they say the quality of an animal's diet shows in their coat so I guess it's working, haha
 
I just wanted to randomly thank everyone that has posted pictures so far, you guys are amazing and I love that you're all sharing a part of your family with TBT, and they are adorable honestly, every single fuzzie is adorable.

Also, I want to encourage others to post more cute pet pictures because I honestly love the fuzzies~~ <3
 
Ugh, I wish I had pets. I'd love to have a cat but my dad hates them. We can't have a dog either, because our house is empty for most of the day and we don't really think it's fair on the dog to leave it on its own for so long (and it might get injured or something and no one would know). My parents just think any other pets are a waste of time, so no pets for me.

Awww D: /hugs

I think that's a fair point about dogs though - a lot of them need attention and hate being left alone for long periods of time, but cats would be perfect for your situation (depending on the cat - there are always exceptions that want to be with someone ALL THE TIME like my own little puffball).

As for other pets... they're totally not wastes of time. My family had snakes at one point and they were boring as hell (lol) but another friend of mine absolutely adores his own snakes and lizards, etc. I think generally reptiles are easier to take care of / more low-maintenance than like, hamsters and gerbils and stuff (but I'm not sure how the lifespans compare and I know not everybody is into the scalies)

A bunny might be an option, but they generally need their own space and you need to make sure there aren't any wires hanging out or they'll chew them o_o
 
Thanks everyone for the wonderful comments on my dog, Buster.

lolipup I had a guinea pig as well. His name was Kolzig, named after a famous hockey player by my husband. He ended up needing two surgeries for his overgrown molars but eventually passed away from some sort of lung infection. After over 4,000$ in exotic vet bills, we are sad he could not stick around to be with us for longer. He was 3 n half years old and adopted from an animal shelter:
Kolzig... RIP my little buddy

I had a guinea pig as well, died due to a URI two hours before his vet appointment. :(
 
If I posted pictures of every animal my family owns, I'd probably make the website explode because we own a lot of animals. a lot. I'll stick to talking about my prized fluffballs. WARNING: STRANGE NAMES AHEAD

So I have 4 cats, I'll list them in the order we got them.

Almond Joy (AJ): My uncle found her on the side of the street and brought her to us about 3-5 years ago. She's black and white and my favorite cat out of the bunch. Almost every night I'll go up to my room and she's sitting in there. I'll get in bed and she'll jump up on it and try to break my nose by headbutting my face when she rubs her face against it. If you hadn't gathered it already, she loves me as much as I love her.

Fat Princess (FP): She was a kitten living in one of our barns when we found her. She's my second favorite behind AJ. We called her Fat Princess because she gained like 5 pounds within 2 weeks (keep in mind, we don't feed our kittens a lot of food that they don't need so this is a lot based on that), and she's now probably 2 or 3 years old, and has incredibly stubby legs. She's tiny, but I love her so much.

Sophers: Sophers is a tabby-ish cat that we thought was a girl when we found him living in the barn as a kitten, and we later found out he was a boy. WHOOPS. Anyways, he's probably my least favorite mostly because he's always meowing and bugging me for food because I'm the one who usually feeds the cats, but he's very sweet and his tail is very fluffy. He reminds me of a raccoon, and he rolls over onto his side and back when I pet him like all of the others. <3

Sir Ribblesworth / The Gray Ninja: TGN is our most recent cat, and like FP and Sophers, he was living in our barn as a kitten. He's a solid gray that kind of looks blue, and we call him a ninja because we'd always see him walking around, look away for a couple seconds and BAM. He's long gone. But he's incredibly loving and matches up with AJ in terms of nose-breaking when he's rubbing against my face.

I also have a dog named Velvet, and she's a Chow and some other kinds of dog we're not quite sure on yet. We got her from a shelter when we were returning another dog (Uno) we'd adopted that kept attacking the animals whenever he either escaped the house by getting out the door, or just running when we were walking him on a leash. Let me say this now, Velvet is much different from Uno in a lot of ways. Velvet was only about 1 and a half when we got her in July last year, and was kept in a cage and abused primarily by men (which explains why she barks and growls at them when they come into the house, but has no problems with women). So she had a lot of confidence issues, and kept her tail between her legs and would instantly drop to the ground whenever she got scared. She'd do this during a walk or around the house. It's been about 7 months, and she's a much different dog now. Energetic, tail up and wagging, and a little better around men (still does not like them though).
