    Velcro Pets

    Do you have a Velcro pet? He/She just has to stick with all or most of the time? Or only during storms or scary events?

    Mr. Spunky sticks to me all the time if I let him. He is especially attentive when it is storming or one of us is out of sorts.

    The others like to sit with me and get some attention, but not constantly.

    Luigi is the only pet I've ever had (cat) that wants attention on HIS time.

    Mario (cat) and Cassie (pup) will follow me around. Cassie even follows me into the bathroom. Makes bath time for her very easy, since she loves the water.

    Both Myndi and Sparky are velcro pups - especially Sparky. I can't even walk out the door and walk to the road to get the mail, without both of them sitting and watching me from the front window. And when I have to go out for a couple of hours and someone else is at home, they still watch out the window for me to come back, the whole time.

    I believe all three of mine are velcro pets, especially after I first come home from college. I'm usually only gone a week or so at a time since I live so close to home, but I swear you'd think I'd been gone for years .

    Bichons are also called velcro pups. They must be with their human at all times. When I get up and go to the bathroom, all 5 follow; always!

    Velcro big time! Cupcake and Poptart are with me all day. I can bring my dogs to work with me so I can actually say they are with me 24/7. The only time they are not with me is when they are in their crate. They sleep in a crate together.

    I voted on two:

    Yes, my pet sticks with the whole time I am home-this is Bon. He is most definitely a velcro dog.

    and then...
    No, my pet doesn't cling and just wants "normal" attention time-this would be the rest of them. They love to be in the same room with me, but don't need to be touched all the time.

    Huney, Bon & Simba-missed so very much
