Ace of Spades Pet Thread, July 30

Courtesy Misanthropic Humanitarian.

Welcome to this weekly respite from most of the outside "civilized" world -- the Ace of Spades Pet Thread.

Thanks for stopping by. Sniff out your best treats, kick back and enjoy the world of animals.

Reminder: For current events and politics, the Thread before the Gardening Thread (a couple of threads below) is almost always an Open Thread.

Hi K.T. it's buzzion. I thought this video from Shadiversity might be good for the pet thread. It's about Medieval Dogs, their looks, breeds and who owned them.

Fascinating. Thanks, buzzion!

Penny (my black cat) likes to troll the Moron Horde on the evening threads, as you can see in her picture.

Jasmine loves taking naps in her warm spot in the sun.

Kaylee the Calico Kitty Cat (the cutest little cat of them all) just likes to roll around on the floor, exposing her belly. It's the ultimate sign of trust among cats, though she's not too keen on me rubbing it. Penny LOVES belly rubs, though.

Enjoy!

Well, now we understand the opening to the Book Thread a little better. Kitties with personality!

Hey K.T.

Great Pet Thread today! Here is a picture of Charlie to add to next week's pet thread! Actually, Charlie has been on the famous AOS Pet Thread before - as a one year old. Now he's older and on his first date!

Keep up the good work!

Charlie is a charmer. Had to include that first photo so we could distinguish Charlie from his date! Heh.

This is Anisette. I don't remember if I sent her photo in before. She's not doing too well right now -- lost a lot of weight and is losing fur. We're seeing the vet on Wednesday.

I've had her twelve years. I am not sure how old she is. She was a stray when she came into my life. She had had kittens and my neighbors and I tried to catch her and the kittens but by the time we were successful, only one kitten remained. We got her (the cat who came to be named Anisette) rabies shots and then we got her spayed. She stayed with me while she recovered. (My landlord adopted the kitten.) Anyhow, Anisette was not happy and kind of mean -- actually really mean -- but she grew on me. I hadn't intended on keeping her, but I did. Now she's royalty around here, keeping the dogs in check. She takes their beds, hangs out in their crates, drinks from their water bowls... And she's so sweet to me. She guards me at night, perched on top of me... Demands rub downs in the mornings. And remind me to feed her.

I hope she'll be okay.

Faithful Moron,
Lee Also

We have already been praying for her, and hope she will be okay, too.

This is Lacey. She's our precious English Mastiff. The gentlest of gentle giants and the sweetest boss either of us ever had.

We love her to the moon and back!
Tracy and Tom

Looks sweet. Little photo, big dog!

Hi all, this is Honey who left us all to quickly this past Wednesday, July 20th so the pain is still fresh. She was a good friend and protector to my wife, daughter and I for over 12 years. Honey was definitely an ette as she knew right from wrong, good vs evil, while loving the good things in life such as sleeping, eating and long walks. I love the pet thread and wished I had sent in Honey's profile before she left us as she would have loved seeing herself on the world famous AoSHQ Pet Thread. Honey was about 8 months old when we received her on Valentines Day 2010 from our local shelter. While 13 years might be long in a dog's life it's much too short for us humans.

P.S. I'm mainly a lurker but sometimes post as Worc1.

Oh, what a fine looking dog. Her personality shines through in those photos. So sorry for your loss.

Hello,

I once in a blue moon post as ptleahy. All three of these pets have been featured on Ace of Spades Pet Thread individually. Big Poodle (black Standard Poodle, Lobi (Chi-weenie) and Pizza (daughter's Malti-poo). We were watching the daughter's dog this week, so it was a big dog party. They were interested in what my lovely wife was snacking on.

Keep up the good work.

A big dog party, or a gang of dogs giving the eye to hooman snacks? Which is it?

Love those PetMorons! Thank you for sharing your pets with us. We have some left for next week.

If you would like to send pet and/or animal stories, links, etc. for the Ace of Spades Pet Thread, the address is:

Remember to include the nic or name by which you wish to be known at AoSHQ, or let us know if you want to remain a lurker.

Until next Saturday, have a great week!

If you start feeling nostalgic, here a link to last week's Pet Thread, the Ace of Spades Pet Thread, July 23. Some special PetMoron stories and photos there.

I closed the comments on this post so you wouldn't get banned for commenting on a week-old post, but don't try it anyway.
