My cat is trying to get me to feed him. But he is currently misbehaving so I'm holding off to avoid encouraging his bad behavior πŸ˜‚

Edit: He calmed down enough and is fed

No offense but he looks like the kind of cat that misbehaves. He’s pretty though but don’t tell him.

Aw, cuddle sponge 10 out of 10

I wish I was clever enough to produce a good joke about your cat obviously hoarding a roll of Cat 6 cable.

That's not even all of them, there's one more out of frame. Usually we get the corners and they will pile on top.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That is a lot of dogs.

Hugging.

A pause in playing what I call bitey face.

They love each other so much. I fostered them first before adoption, the rescue we foster for asks for a small fee for adopting for legal reasons, and therefore they are the best four dollars I've ever spent.

Meet lumpy. Lumpy is swell.

Lazy. 10 out of 10

What a cutie!

[–] morgunkorn@discuss.tchncs.de 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is Shana, she is turning 16 in 2 months, and she is well! A bit of age-related aching, but we give them what she needs to relieve her old bones. She is very vocal and cuddly, must be at any time near us.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Is she missing an ear? Is she Siamese? Very pretty cat.

Rhea was doing great (sleeping) until I woke her up to take a picture. This is cat equivalent of "what the fuck do YOU want".

I also have another cat, Luna, around here somewhere, but she's shy, so I have no idea where she is or what she's doing. I tried searching without any success. She usually shows up in the evening when the kids have gone to bed.

an orange bearded dragon with an ineffible expression

Surprisingly he ought to be asleep for the summer but he’s still awake. He’s 3, the youngest of my scaly boys. His name is Tofu and I love how lazy he is

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Holy s*** 11/10

I didn't know beardies brumate! Thank you for sharing.

Rune is doing very well. This photo was taken yesterday in my garden.

He was outside very long last night (until almost 3:00). He usually comes home at 22:30.

He is almost 5 years old.

My dogs are both sleepy lil babies rn. The beagle is Radar and the goldendoodle is Rosie. They spent a lot of today hanging out outside.

I also have two cats who are notoriously hard to get pics of, and I have a flock of 12 ducks.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

I don't have these dogs, pretty pissed about that, 10 out of 10

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago

Mine just got a haircut last weekend for the warm summer weather.

Calliope has never been fed in her entire life… (she was fed 15mins before this photo)

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

Holy s*** that's adorable, and I don't even like cats but that is adorable. Not at all an a******.

Long snout, kind of predator, little bit scary.

I love kohi, 10 out of 10

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Very pretty!

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 5 points 1 year ago

He keeps stealing my chair!

[–] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

This is the crew, not all mine though.

Lady is the smallish black and white Aus. Cattledog (mix), she's 16, going on 3.

Oslo is the fat black dog, and Tommy is the skinny black dog.

I wanted to show this because the shaggy old brown pup, our friends boy Vic, 14, was put down last friday and he was the best.

[–] darthelmet@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

We have 2 old cats. One is doing fine. Sadly the other is probably not going to last much longer. He hasn’t been able to keep down food much for a while and has gotten too skinny.

We’re not exactly sure how old they are. We were told they were around the same age, but the healthy one is still super energetic, so idk if that means he was actually a lot younger or if he just turned out to be healthier for whatever reason. He’s also really social with other cats, so I’m worried he’ll be sad when the other passes.

[–] Gallardo994@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Carl. His name is Carl. He enjoys cosplaying a bird sometimes.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

Carl is so cool, amazing colors, very robust, 10 out of 10

I’m very late to this post! The boys are living their best summer life, coming and going as they please, lounging in the grass, and playing in the woods. Worrying their mom when they don’t come home till late. They are brothers, almost two years old, and the orange is Diesel and the black is Styx.
