Hey, fellas! I've just created this section for us to show off our cuddly companions. I own a little Pomeranian named Lucky. He's such a playful fellow, too playful that we had to set up a pet gates in our home, so we could limit the indoor areas that he's only allowed to run into, as he already broke a few things before and we decided it'd be best to keep him out of the said area, especially when we're not around. In spite of that, he’s fun, loving dog. He even cuddles before bedtime and greets us with his cheerful barks in the early hours. What pet/s do you own, guys?

Olive is a Portuguese Water Dog and is almost two years old. She is an ill-behaved cur, but we love her anyway.
 
May as well try to figure out how to post pictures. We have two cats from the same litter, Dot and Dash (we feel no remorse). This picture sums up their relationship.IMG_1490.JPG
 
This is Bailey, I'm not sure who gets more excited about the mailman bringing rockets.???

This is Ohm. He had a cut on his back he wouldn't stop scratching at, so we put a shirt on him to help it heal. He's grown attached to it and doesn't like when we take it off. Throws a hissy-fit every time we remove it. So I've had to buy him a second so I can at least wash them.

He's also pretty good at balancing things on his head.

Not sure about a little friend [emoji57] but Sweetie does like everyone so far. At 110#s+ that’s a good thing.
 
Sorry no pics but...

I have Cichlids. 6 Convicts, 1 Red Devil, and 3 others that are unknown cichlid species (but look nice). All in a 55gal. tank.
I also have an Electric Blue Crayfish in a 10gal tank.
 
In order, Benny, Frodo, Rocket, Stormy, and Kit Kit. Also a bunch of guppies in a tank in my office at work.IMG_20180712_085454648.jpegIMG_20180712_085432097.jpegIMG_20180712_085424981.jpegIMG_20180712_085629626_BURST000_COVER.jpegIMG_20180712_085650166.jpeg
 
Adopted our bundles of fur a few years ago from a friend who was moving out of state, into a 'no pets allowed' environment.

Gizmo is pushing nine years old.

Shadow, ten years.

Shadow has a skin condition from birth which, sadly, causes him to look like a zombie cat during the summer months. But, we've found a good combination of diet and ointment that has helped to keep him health and comfortable.

Ember, our female dalmatian. She's deaf which is good for rocketry. She has a growing vocabulary of 25 or so signs - we're teaching her American Sign Language.
 
This is Angus, me wee Heilan' Laddie. He is a very rambunctious 7 y.o. Scottie. He will sit near me while I practice my pipes in the backyard. But , only if they are perfectly in tune! He even has a favorite tune! When I play a hornpipe called "The Stone Frigate", he gets excited and starts to "dance"!

Here's Oscar, the Rocket Dog, at the NEFAR launch a few years ago. Oscar loves attending the launches.

Here's Juno our 7 month old Sheepadoodle (Old English Sheep Dog Poodle cross). She a very quick learner and loves everyone she's met so far. She's not trained well enough to let run free yet but she loves to be out meeting everyone.

Both our cats are buried in the back. One, a long hair creamsicle cat and the other a Black Forest Norwegian. The Weegie weighed in at 16 lbs. as a female. Both lived on dry food and lived to see 17 years apiece.
