Post your favorite memories of you with your pets

Mine:

with Reba - of course when I first saw her in the SPCA. She wagged her tail and barked with such spirit as she came out to go home with us. Also, there was a time I cut myself on a fence going after her after she ran off as a puppy. That's devotion for you. I remember all the times she has given kisses, wanted belly scratches, and shown love in general.

with Benji - I remember that gate game he always played. He would put something he liked by the gate and bark at the gate to give it up. Benji would always win. :-)

with Scotty - used to play with all of us little kids. I remember he would let us ride him. He was like the Garfield of dogs in personality, so I'm surprised.

1. My cat Oreo...

had been a stray, and was ALWAYS in search of food. ALWAYS.

When I had her (in my pre-repehensor days), I was working AND going to school full time, and she was always creating havoc while I was gone during the day. But she was so damned funny I couldn't help but love her.

One night, after I'd finally graduated, gotten a great job and moved into a cool old duplex in Dallas, I was in the process of getting settled in. My furniture had not made it up yet.

I decided I wanted some Greek, so went to Kosta's and got a mixed platter of various favorites.

The phone rang, so I walked across the room to answer. since it was my mom, I settled down for a second to let her know how things were going.

All of a sudden, I saw this flash of black and white, and there she goes, across the dining room floor, dragging a huge hunk of souvlaki behind her. I laughed my ass off.

I fed my birds and they squawked. Sorry, they don't do much.
