You were expecting maybe a cat?
Everyone has a story about a time their pet did something really silly

And finally: The “More Pets, Please” Signal
Message received, more pets incoming! (via Arne)
I want a lap donkey…
Animals always know how to get their point across. My mom said Stars has been meowing at her a lot lately at a certain time of day…she figured out it’s because she wants her to make my dad’s bed so she can sleep up by the pillow. (Never mind that my mom’s bed is already made and she could sleep there. I guess it doesn’t smell like my dad.) She doesn’t even wait until it’s finished; as soon as the pillows are in place she curls up there.
I love Poodle the cross eyed cat, I would have adopted her in a second! I don’t understand how people would hesitated to take her she’s so cute!
Perfection is so overrated. The crossed eyes only make her cuter and more loveable.
Also, we have another calendar candidate in Poodleโs daddy, donโt we!
I dunno, looks like “More pets, dammit!” to me.
Now I want kittens, baby sea otters, and a little donkey. So cute!
I had no idea the “more pets” sign was universal to all species. I have no idea what that animal at the end is, but that is exactly the facial expression and the hand/paw gesture that my dogs give me. LOL!!
My Phred used to shove his head under my hand strongly and make my
hand bounce up and land on the back of his head, then give me the
sideeye that said, โyou get the message, mama?โ
