Just more proof. My co-worker just spent about a half hour here meeting the pups after we both worked since 5:30am this morning! Guess what her name is? Pam!!:p
She has 2 bunnies, a cat, and 2 dogs. :)

Having just started a new job, no-one really knows the extent of my obsession I suppose.:D I showed one girl a pic of Oggy that is my phones wallpaper, and she has a dog. I also told them that we can't have kids and that our pups make a great substitute, so I think there getting the idea.:D
At my old lab, most people had more animals than I did so it was kind of nice to talk about them. One of my old professors just sent me an emal about one of the mew-mew kittens' leaving to go to her new home and how sad she was.
In my current lab, I am in a research tech/grad student office with three other guys. I know two of them have at least one dog and the third has 8 cats, but they are his wife's. :D I'm not sure about everyone else though...I haven't really gotten to know them well enough.
I think just about everyone I work with is an animal person. My boss's cocker goes to school with my dogs, our typist has 3, and the other tech reviewer has 3 cats.
In the lab, the supervisor has 2 guinea pigs, two of the chemist's have 2 dogs each, and the other has 1, currently and has been approved to adopt a grey. One technician just lost his dog, and I'm not sure if the other has pets. The technoloigst has none, but his parents have both a cat and a dog.
I think it took people a while to realize my boss and I were talking about our dogs, when we were talking about school, and (training) classes and stuff...but it really works out well when your boss is a true animal lover too...makes it easier to call off for emergency vet appointments! My former boss (she took a new job in Janurary) was a dog person too...she still calls me when one is sick to see what she should do!
