PET Pet Peeves! What do they do that annoy, gross you out....?

[caseysmom]

Bubba's fur drives me crazy...I will never have another dog with long hair! If he has a messy poop he needs an entire bath, if he throws up he stinks until he gets a bath.

Casey is totally low maintenance.

[catnapper]

Nicki looooooves tissues. The more "Flavored" the better. She also adores used "feminine products" (even worse once they come back up.) She also HATES when hubby and I cuddle. He calls her BC (birth control!) We might not be doing anything other than holding hands and she barks her head off until we stop.

Allen pees on any blankets that are on the floor. Even if its two minutes, he swoops in and sprays.

Pouncer has a fascination with rolling around in litter -- dirty or clean, he rolls in it.

Chip does that too! But he's whacked out of his head anyway. I find it amusing when he's rolling in freshly scooped potties. The iguana often comes out of her tank and wanders around the house...and I come home to the most disgusting slimy mess of lizard excrement on the floor. Imagine trying to wipe up egg whites mixed with lumps of mud? Only good thing is it really has no odor at all to it, but man it's gross to clean up! The dogs used to feast on the cats crunchy coated tootsie rolls until I moved all the litterpans into the basement.

The sound of either Joxer or Strauss barfing at 3:00 in the morning. Its even worse when Joxer is sleeping on our bed.

[joycenalex]

after alex gets a drink from the waterbowl, he gets alot of water on the floor, and guess how many times i've found it in my socks?
richard, smelly runny stools can be a sign of poor quality or poorly digested food. maybe a higher quality food, or a change will firm up the stools and make it less smelly. while alexs' stools are still...poop, it's not horrid, just a lousy duty (pun intended)

[Flatcoatluver]

[wolf_Q]

Reggie has an obsession with trying to lick Nebo's privates ten thousand times a day. It drives me insane! Nebo gets a look in his eye like he's going to go after him (though he never has) and Reggie will not stop until I yell at him. Gross!! He also is really talented at getting right under your feet and tripping you.

Sydney's barking outside is extremely annoying, she'll just go nonstop...even if scolded she'll stop for a second then start up again. Her garbage habits are annoying too, we have to put the garbages out of her reach (especially bathroom one) because she just loves to chew up toilet paper. She doesn't just chew it up though, she spreads it throughout several rooms...

The only thing I can think of with Nebo is he's a messy drinker, he spills water all over the floor. He also will drink tons and tons of water at a time then run around the house and end up puking it up.

[Cookiebaker]

Malone: when I'm in a hurry to do something, or be someplace, he grabs something nawtee (off the coffee table or garbage can) and play "catch-me-if-you-can".

Emerson: Whenever I'm bent over to tie my shoes, he stands really close and WIGGLES. I push him away, and he just presses in that much harder. Tieing my shoes can sometimes be a 5 minute ordeal. And Emerson is a real water slop, too. He will take 2 mouthfuls of water, run around the kitchen letting it all dribble out. Repeat 3 or 4 times, and my kitchen is flooded.

[LKPike]

frankie teaching jillian every bad thing he learned in his life while with his previous bad owners. fighting the nail clippers, trash diving, agressiveness, and stalking and killing little animals.

[ParNone]

Murph: Non-stop licking of the Collies ears, if I let him that is. I tell him to stop after about a minute. They don't seem to mind, but I worry about him giving them an ear infection. And if it's while I'm trying to go to sleep, I have to get him to knock if off, cuz I can't sleep with licking noises going on.

Oz: He can't seem to play with Gull quietly. It only bothers me when I'm trying to watch something on TV or work though. He's so loud, you can forget about hearing anything said on the TV. And for working, I can't hear myself think from all the racket, so forget about stringing together coherent thoughts to type up.

Gull: Uses his nose to flip the computer keyboard out of my lap or he comes and lays his nose across it. Most of the time I think it's cute, but every once in awhile, when I'm trying to get some work done, it can be a lil' irritating.

Par...

[Cataholic]

the friggin 'traveling water bowl'...

Good Grief! If mine travelled any further, it would need a PASSPORT! I have ONE word for it- MONTE! That cat...I swear...if I didn't love him so much, I would have given him the bum's rush a month after I adopted him. I have never known such a 'bad' cat. He is responsible for every single problem in my household, every single one.

[catlover4ever]

Hairballs on the carpet....they can be within inches of the tile floor and they still prefer to throw up on the carpet.

Gracie and Gabriel who decied to wrestle at 2 am.....any other time would be fine....and it would be really nice if they would wrestle on the floor and not on me while I'm trying to sleep.

Abner.....he has to put his paw into every liquid...water, milk, soda...does not matter...he just has to put his paw into it to see what it is. Mark and I swear that Abner's daddy was a squirrel....because he has to bury his food and his water so no one else can have any.

Smokey, well he is just down right nasty. He peeves me the most.

Tucker and her atomic snots...she sneezes all the time and it is just nasty. No amount of antibiotic can help her.

Mystic and her smelly behind and Tigger who will not settle down on side of you until she walks in a circle for what seems like forever....just LAY DOWN!!!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Peanut - at home she's the perfect little girl, I love her to bits and she can do no wrong! However, in the motorhome..... She must drink with her paw, which is not a problem at home with the carpeting - the paw is dry by the time she hits the tile floor, but in the motorhome, the tile floor is about all there is, so she takes a drink, then proceeds to walk from the back all the way to the front and she leaves little wet paw marks the entire way. But that's not the worst of it....uUsually the litterbox is in the shower, but for about an hour in the morning it needs to come out so we humans can take a shower - sorry Peanut, we can't just lick ourselves clean like you can. She will not use the litterbox all morning, until the second I take it out of the shower! Then she's in it, and out of it, then back in it, then out of it, then it's time for the big dig, then, without going at all, she's out of it, then it's time for a drink....so the paw is wet...then she's back in, then out and tracking not only wet paws all over the tile, but clumpy litter too! She is in and out so many times in that hour it's completely ridiculous, and when she's done the floor looks like a tile lined sand box, which we then have to step on with our wet feet as we get out of the shower. Finally she'll slow down with the in and out, but she won't totally settle down and leave the litterbox alone until we're both out of the shower and I've got the litterbox back in the shower stall. Then she wants nothing to do with it!

Whew! Glad I got that off my shoulders.

CJ - the only thing I really don't like that he does is his meowing while we're driving in the motorhome. At home he is a little goofball and if anything, I would like him to be a bit more cuddly and sleep with me, but those aren't really pet peeves. His meowing while we're driving though, is enough to drive me insane!

[ramanth]

When Kia will sit either in front of the TV or in the kitchen and whine loudly. She'll have food and water in her bowls. She doesn't want to go out or play, just wants to stare at me and whine.

Ugh!

[IRescue452]

Pepper- she's so old that she shakes like a cold chihuahua, it drives me nuts.
Sonny- meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow his rendition of the cat food commercials, and when you want him to come by you to get pet he'll walk up to you and stop a few inches too far.
Autumn- the puppydog eyes she gives me when I leave for college, she fetches a toy and quickly snaps her head away when you reach for it, she has a real high pitched bark when she's frustrated at me and when she knows I'm hiding the ball behind my back
Morty- always hisses when I shut the closet door its like the door has a sound effect
Depot- begs for food with this great big wide open mouth like a baby bird
