Ace of Spades Pet Thread, Christmas Eve

Good afternoon and welcome to the almost world famous Ace of Spades Pet Thread. Thanks for stopping by. Kick back and enjoy the world of animals.

Would you like a treat?

Let's enjoy the the furry (or scaly) ones and leave the world of politics and current events outside today. It's Christmas Eve!

Hope it's okay that I'm posting early. The two preceding threads are still open.

Santa visited the shelter at the North Pole this morning and got adopted by a new kitty.

What is it about cats and Christmas trees? Our Country is Screwed has been looking for examples:

People told me Robert was going to get bigger. I laughed and said "Yeah sure."

Boy was I wrong.

Merry Christmas!

My daughter's two best friends dogs. Stella hogging the chair, and Scarlet. Hard to imagine two better dogs, in all respects.

They look like wonderful dogs!

here is a picture of my 8 month old Maine Coon mix kitten Smudge. She's been on the Pet Thread before but wanted to share this picture of her posing beneath our Christmas tree. She hasn't climbed the tree - yet. She seems almost as curious about the water in the tree stand as she does at the possibility of reaching new heights in our Fraser Fir.

Thanks for sharing this and all the other pet pictures I've submitted.

Christmas Cat

Thanks as always for the wonderful pet thread on Ace. Although she's passed many years ago, here's one of our beautiful Matilda (Tillie).

A beautiful cat.

What a wonderful greeting from your pups!

I thought that I should send this picture of the latest addition to our collection of critters - the all-white, blue-eyed sort-of-Siamese, Miso, who has discovered that the best place to hide is on the white "snow" under our Christmas tree. Miso came from a litter of three white kittens produced by a semi-tame flame-point Siamese female, one of a pride of cats fed and encouraged by several families in the neighborhood. We noted one day, with alarm, that one of them was limping and tottering, as if her hind-legs had been damaged. So we scooped her up and took her home to be the cat-familiar for my grandson. The limp resolved itself within a week. There was a gap in our roster of pets, since the elderly calico, Jezebel had passed on in mid-summer, at the age of sixteen or so. She adored our wee grandson, and hovered over him constantly. I firmly believe that Jezz considered The Wee One to be her bald and grotesquely malformed foster kitten.

Merry Christmas!

Our Shih-Tzu Pomeranian rescue Edison gave up a good picture in front of the tree. Merry Christmas!
