Furkids and Skinkids
I was thinking about the relationships that children develop with animals from a very young age. I can never remember not having a dog in my life even as a little baby, and I do feel very sorry for children who are never allowed to have a pet of their own. With that in mind, I just wanted to share a picture with everyone of my little grandson (13 months old) and my Trevor. As you can see, Trev is a very tolerant kitty and Christian is being taught from an early age to respect animals and "be nice." If anyone has a caption feel free to post it! http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...0/fd1bad9e.jpg

To be read/sung to music..."Lean on me, when your not strong, I'll be your friend"...he he he...I had dogs around me always....and was taught at an early age to respect animals, be kind, be responsible, etc. I think a child learns sooo much about life when he/she is raised with animals.

Oh Lut you made me laugh out loud! I do have a rocker and my kitties often jump on the rocker to sit in my lap, but I don't know how to knit very well.! HA! Also thankfully I am not that old! :D :D You gave me a great laugh today!

"Hmmm, I have red hair - this fuzzy soft thing has red hair, guess we are brothers!"
Pam, your grandson is so adorable! I bet you wear out his cheeks giving him kisses!

I never had a pet growing up. Draker is my first ever!! My mother has always been an animal lover, but my father doesn't like animals. I was bitten by a dog when I was young and was terrified of them till I got Drake. I was 20 when I overcame my fear.
Looking back, I do not know how I ever lived with out a dog in my life! I have found a passion that I didn't know existed. Andrew and I will ALWAYS have dogs. No ifs, ands, or buts! When I have children of my own, the too will have a furry best friend to call their own.

Pam, you can tell they are from the same family since they have the same hair color! :)
I was one of those kids who couldn't have a dog or cat due to my dad's allergies. We were allowed gerbils and I spoiled them plenty! Once I got my own place I got my own cat who has been a big sister to all 3 of my kids. We plan to get a dog when the kids are teenagers.:)

Pam, he's adorable! Your grandson I mean. ;) :) Of course Trevor is too, and it's wonderful that he is so tolerant. I know a lot of older people who have cats, and when the grandkids come the cats hide, but looks like Trevor rather likes the extra attention. :)
<Grandson whispering to Trevor> "Psst...don't tell anybody, but I smuggled some milk in here for you Trevor. Now if I can just keep from spilling it all over my lap, and I can get the darn lid off, I'd give you some." ;) :)
OR
"Psst..Hey Trevor, look, I "accidentally" spilled some milk on my lap. You, per chance, wouldn't want to help me clean it up, would you?" ;) :D

Pam, I am glad you posted this topic. It has made me feel a whole lot better. My husband and I are trying to have a baby, and I was worried that when we had the baby we would have to get rid of our furbabies. Now I know everything will be ok with them. Thanks! :)

I have always had lots of pets.. always two dogs and two cats at least. My parents still have that many!! :D I have already discussed with my boyfriend too, if we have kids one day we WILL have pets!! At least he agrees! He didnt have any because his mom hates the mess (she is a freak :rolleyes: ). But I would never raise my kids without pets, and if they have allergies, we get the breeds that are best for that!!! :D
-
I have no captions, but I must say that both of the boys are angels! Little Christian, you little doll, you. Look at that beautiful golden hair of yours :)
It's off subject but I am officially going to be an aunt and my brother is probablly going to name my nephew-to-be Christian :)

When I was young, I was never allowed to have the much sought after cat or dog. But I had many other pets. And all children should be taught the value of other living creatures. Great photo.

Both of your boys are just precious!!! :)
