    Hey, there are many bunnies at shelters that need homes, go for it! After all, as a pillow my mum-in-law bought me says "You're nobody 'til somebunny loves you!"

    That adorable little Pug yesterday only got 4 comments???? It seems the dog comments never get as many as the cats, but this was terrible.

    I noticed that too. Could be the nicer weather is drawing folks outside
    more so they are not around as much. I just think what if it were my pet
    and nobody cared to give at least one kind comment? Doesn't take long to
    do that.

    I am #5 today for French Bulldog Chipsy. I feel bad. I will be more careful to post going forward.

    I saw that, the next day. I felt bad as I didn't get a chance to post. That was the day I had a Dr appt after work and Missy had a vet appt, right after me. I usually try to post any time I see a pet not getting very many posts.

    Karen, I love how today's Dog and Cat of the day are both black and white -- and they are both such wonderful stories!

    I just love that 'see more images' on the DOTD/COTD/POTD pages. There's never a time I don't check out the extra pics!

    I agree. I don't normally post in the Day forums because I am so absolutely horrible at expressing myself without sounding lame. I really have to dig deep to express these things.

    However, today, when I checked in again this afternoon, no one had posted in the dog or pet Day forums. So I started something in the Pet forum for Ginger the Cockatiel. I just thought that it was terrible that no one had posted yet, although it being a Saturday and decent weather might be a reason.

    Pomtzu beat me to the Dog forum, thankfully.

    I didn't realize until today that we must have more cat and dog people. I saw a lot of cat-dog people posting in the pet Day form.

    I don't normally even read the other Day honorees. Perhaps that will change tomorrow, as I read today's.

    Thanks for listening.

    Thanks, I hope you enjoy the featured nominees more, and do not feel you have to be terribly or original or as gifted as tattsxxx11 in posting about the animals. A simple congratulations counts a lot for that pet's people!
