Ace of Spades Pet Thread, May 11

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 relax a little with the animals and leave the world of politics and current events outside today.

Don't have one of these, do you?

Some people know how to get along with giraffes:

> I hope this works. You asked for some horse pictures and this one is about as sweet as it gets.

I will be in the comments on Saturday to explain the picture so as not to tie up more of the main page.

Thank you,

Ben Had

Very sweet. And of course, we try to be careful to protect the identity of hoomans in photos.

Winnie (black and white) and Kroger (black) are quite happy to assist me on days I work from home. I met Winnie when she was just off the track and I was transporting her to her foster home. She decided that she'd much rather go home with me. Kroger was returned due to an instance of aggression. We fostered him, weaned him off Prozac and got him adopted out only to have him be returned again. My wife and I decided he could live with us.

They look like great office helpers. Interesting story about weaning Kroger off Prozac.

This is Panda, she's now about 16 yo, a sweet and gentle cat to all but the dogs. She is very expressive with her voice and especially with her tail, and no longer pretends to be aloof,. She was born feral but was captured by 3 of the Dall progeny, enticed by cheese. She then captured said kids, then after she moved in with us she enthralled the elder Dalls into her service.

Panda has obviously earned her place in the family.

Ok, the family has expanded beyond the three cats (Zim, Grrrrr, and Monster) and Princess the dog. We now have adopted a bunch of more unusual animals which I now present for the Pet Morons Pleasure.

I just pray that I got the name pairs correct.

As always, thanks for doing the PetMorons! It's a fun part of my weekend to see the pets.

What an amazing collection of critters! Love them. It must take some dedication to care for them each day.

A nice collection of pets today. Thank you for sharing your pets with us.

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.
