    New here; just joined.

    Just thought I'd start a thread and introduce myself.

    My name is Jennifer and I currently live in Prince Edward Island, Canada with my husband and our precious pets: Keesha (dog) and Monte (cat). Keesha (my avatar) is a husky/shepherd, 4 years old, and FULL of beans. Her best friend and companion is Monte who is 5 and is a black shorthair cat. I just recently lost one of my babies (cat)... Hatchie (short for "Hatchepsut"), who died of renal failure after a really long life at 23. I miss her and her sister so much -they were a large part of me, as are all my fur babies. I lost her sister, Neffer (short for "Nefertiti"), to renal failure (she was diagnosed with hyper-thyroid when she was 13) when she was 21. I hope that we are fortunate to have our animals as long as I had those two loving sisters.

    Well, I joined this board by following a link on another one I belong to - like I need to join ANOTHER web board. I do love pets though, so I feel I'll be here often.

    I look forward to meeting everyone and getting active in the threads.

    Jenn.

    Welcome Jennifer!! Your pets are adorable! I'll admit I'm really excited to see more photos of Keesha!! (I LOVE huskies *and* german shepards!)

    That is amazing that Hatchie and Neffer lived such a long life, I can tell from you post that they were very well loved!

    My name is Amy, and I am owned by 3 dogs.....Smokey the (almost) 17 year old poodle, Reggie the 9 1/2 year old schnauzer, and Nebo the 7 month old siberian husky.

    I know you will enjoy it here!

    p.s. who is the other dog in your signature? Yorkie?

    Wow! Replies! Thanks for the welcome Karen, Uabassoon, LoudLou, and Amy.

    Amy, I can't believe that I left out my "original dog" Josie! *slap on my face*. That wonderful (and TOUGH) Yorkie is my Dad's dog, but I grew up with her. She's 16 and still thinks she's top dog at the park. I haven't had her living with me for almost 7 years, so I tend to not include her with my pets, which is really awful. Josie is such a great dog. SO friendly and NEVER barks (she broke the mold - hahaha). You have 3 dogs? Er, you are owned by 3 dogs? That is something... a poodle, a schnauzer and a siberian!

    Again, thanks so much for the welcome. I have TONS of pictures, so don't worry about seeing them. LOL.

    For example...

    Hi Cassandra. I didn't see your post when I replied. Thanks to you as well for the warm welcome. You have a TON of pets! How wonderful!!

    We are thinking of rescuing a gecko... we've never had one before... how do they get along with the other animals? I've been hemming and hawing about this because I'd hate to make a rash decision before educating myself... I would love some feedback on what your gecko is like.

    Hi SavaryGal,

    Your Keesha has the cutest nose!

    My two fur-kids are in my avatar: Cassy, the male, is a dilute silver swirl tabby and Livvy, the female, is a brown tabby Maine Coon mix.

    Look forward to hearing more about your fur-kids. Welcome to Pet Talk!

    Thank you, Popcornbird for creating this tribute to Summer starring Livvy and Cassy

    Thanks!

    Well if you want a gecko white spots are about the tamest you can get. If you get them as young adults. Spot was rescued while I was working, when I found him under a shelving unit stuck to a glue pad. I didn't know what to do but he was alive and I was not about to let him die. My boyfriend came over on my lunch break to bring me some food, and said he could "unglue" him if we bought some vegetable oil. So he went to Rite Aid and bought some oil and we got him off. I hated that petshop!

    I told my boss he died and took him home, I was not about to let him stay there! Anyways, all that he suffered was a few missing scales. He did unfortunately lose his tail one day but it has grown back, though not as lovely as it used to be.

    He's very active and loves his crickets! They don't get too big. So he is a perfect pet. I love him so much! He doesn't like to be handled too much but does enjoy supervised stick time to walls in the bathroom.
