Dualbunny's Pets: A Desk Reference
Daily round-up: I had today off. Officially. Not just 'cause I wasn't working or something. Boo Boo is cleaning Lily's face and killing me with the cuteness. I finished clipping for my vid, and intend to be in a vidding place tonight and this weekend--and then some. And I got ice cream and have a shiny, fluffly, clean dog with the cutest

I think your dog looks gorgeous. I love when they're fresh from the groomer. :)

I'm assuming the fish are safe and out of kitty reach. Actually this reminds me that my mother's colleague has a similar set-up: two huge fish tanks (he used to have Oscar look alikes, but they ended up dying), a rotweiller, a miniature dachshund and an indeterminate number of cats. And they all get along rather well. Do your kitties ever try to get in with the fishies?
The other day he ate a rock he couldn't swallow, and it took him like three days to spit it back out. I figure if fish are dumb enough to kill themselves with rocks, there's not much you can do about it.
Hee! I remember reading somewhere that young ostriches are fond of eating rocks and other indigestible things.

It's not silly because I have a similar theory about our kitty and how he may be Gobi (the dog, not me) reincarnated. I wonder if it works across different species.

And the kitties have never really tried to catch any of the fish. They like to jump at them occassionally, and Lily like to go behind her little tank and dip her feet in the water pump sometimes. Mostly they don't seem to get that they could come at the fish from the top. Lily's always trying to reach around the side of the aquarium and suprise them.

I don't see why not. Once you get used to the idea of them coming back, the shape doesn't seem like much of a big deal. :)

So I read that and thought for a second that was how you met your husband! Your dog brought him home for you! :D

I actually broke all kinds of good-pet-habitry rules when I got Miles. I had to put my first cat to sleep, and I didn't deal with it very well. That same day I went out and picked up Miles. From a BYB, who unsurprisingly shouldn't have been making puppies in the first place. Of course, I didn't actually know that stuff at the time. All the same, I'm glad he ended up with people that could handle, or at least try to handle, the problems he's had.
Now it's hard to imagine life without a giant fuzzy barky dog in it. :)

And I notice a lack of black and white cats in your cat collection. Surely this oversight must be corrected one day?

And yes, I do bemoan the lack of black and white cats. Although I don't know if you're referring to them separately or as a combined version. :) My Murphy was black. And so was the first cat that adopted our family when I was a little kid. I have huge soft spot for black cats. And we had a white one for a while when I was little too.
Someone just needs to point them toward my house. Gerry can't say no to homeless animals any better than I can. ;)

I love how Bettas think their so bad-ass. A former co-worker used to keep one on her desk, and he (the betta, not the co-worker) did NOT like it when I wore red... he would always flare his fins at me and glare. I was scared. :)

Um, I do know that the proper spelling is "they're." I blame my fingers. Me smart, me tech writer!
