I did look through the dogster site. I was kinda fun, but I don't think I would spend much time there.
I chose not to make a blog profile for my pets. They are fat and lazy and not very interesting.
So unless you wanted to hear about how they ate....slept....ate....slept....ate....slept....well... you get the point.
I checked out a few of the other sites...I clicked on some of the message board discussions.
There were some interesting comments/stories/questions to be found there.
And as usual...lots of cute pictures of pets.

Pets #73: Losing a Friend
Oh....how timely....
I just found out yesterday that our cat has a large "growth" (aka: tumor) in her abdomen.
We are going to have to decide when to have her put to sleep. Right now she is just lethargic, but
still eating and not in any apparent pain. I guess we'll just take it day by day and see how she does.
I did go to some of the websites about pet loss and grieving....and they made me all teary-eyed.
I reckon I'll be doing a bit more surfing on these sites in the near future.

Pets #72
...and the results say......
That Lucy is 82.3 years old!
She's fat and she's lazy.
She sleeps a lot....snores even more....doesn't wake up when I come home.
She would eat anything she could get her paws on.
We don't know when she was actually born since she was a rescued dog, but she is getting old.
A lot of her black hair has turned white and she just "looks" old.
But she is the sweetest old dog we know!

Pets #71: Finding a Pet
Exercises:
1. ...and the quiz says: That I should have a reptile.
hmmmm.....we have two dogs, a cat, a parrot and lots o'fish.
We had a turtle....REPTILE!....and it was my least favorite pet.
He grew so fast and got his tank so dirty. He was a pain to take care of.
He is now happily making new friends in the lake at Meyer Park.
2. I looked at Petfinder...but not for long.
I didn't want to get too attached to anyone!
3. I looked for pugs....
We got one of our pugs...Lucy...from a local Pug Rescue Society.
She is great! and I would do it again.
My daughter and I recently started volunteering at a no-kill shelter.
I'm afraid I'm gonna want to bring home oodles of new pets...my daughter
has already begun pitching me for another cat.
I'm afraid at this time all we can do is make sure the poor homeless dogs
and cats have clean cages and get played with.
