Do you have a pet story? I don't have a recent one but I do remember when growing up with my grandmother, we would take in stray dogs. Just one that I particularly remember. He was a spotted dog that someone had abandoned in our neighborhood and he took up at our house. We named him Spot. I have a very old photograph somewhere with Spot in it. My neighbor, has taken in a stray cat that has taken up at his home. He calls this cat Tom. Tom is a wonderer, and he left home recently for a couple of days and my neighbor went berserk, I told him to be patience I do believe Tom will be back he is just out living up to his name (Tomming), well Tom finally came back. And was my neighbor excited. I heard him calling my name as if something was seriously wrong. When I answered he told me Tom was back.

Hello, I have a pet story that I will like to share.I was doing some research on house bunnies, and based on the information that I found I wanted to purchase a bunny, so the next week off I was to the pet store. I have noticed how the pet store clerk was dealing with the animals so crule, but I never said anything, I just thought to myself she is pretty rough with these animals. So she finally walked me over to thebunnies, and asked me very rudely "which one do you want"?, so I replied the honey colored one, so she gripped the honey colored bunny up by his neck, and the honey colored bunny ,who I now call honey bunny scrathced her so hard she wanted to cry. Happy My Lotting!

I have so many pet stories that I couldn't pick any one of them in particular because there's just too many of them. I can say this though, when I was about 4 or 5 years old, my parents had 48 cats at one time! No kidding! They kept multiplying so much that it got out of control. Then one day a few men in a truck with wooden sides came along and stole quite a few animals from the neighborhood and they took a lot of our cats. We never knew where they were taken to but we think it was to some damned animal science place where they do animal testing. We hope not but really don't know.

It was rainy back then, 2 years ago when my country got hit by a powerful typhoon. I was a graduating student back then. I was on my way home, when a strong rain came in with strong winds, that almost destroyed my umbrella. well, i decided to head to a nearest store for shelter when i saw this poor puppy hiding in a broken desk with lots of holes. i went there first and grab it, then the people shouted at me for some reason. because a truck fell and it was sliding heading my direction, luckily i was able to evade t before it can hit me.her name is stellah and she's here guarding our new home.
