Seeing as I don’t have a drawing for today, I want to draw attention to my lovely pets. Definitely not because my cat was being a camera hog earlier and blocking every single picture I took.
The Kittens
From back to front:
Comet, Figaro(Figgy), and Teddy.
Comet is the grumpy old gal, and Figgy and Teddy are my boys. They’re turning five this year, I believe, but they’ll always be my little kittens. (Especially since they are the most immature cats I’ve ever met. And yes, I understand that I just called two cats immature.) The boys are brothers and we’ve had them since they were three months old. Comet – sheesh, I don’t even know how old she was when we acquired her – is 16, I think. My sister found her as a stray and took her home. We’ve had her ever since.
Here are my boys again, all picture perfect and posing. Figgy is a little attention who- I mean. Ahem. Dramatic. He has the most obnoxiously loud meow you will ever hear (I’m almost positive he has Siamese in him because of it) and he’s such a talker. And on the other hand, Teddy only meow when he wants food, and even then he’s quiet as can be. He also squeaks when you pick him up (it’s the funniest thing.)
Comet was an outdoor cat for the longest time, so she lacks manners. (And she bites. Randomly.) Aside from that, she is the sweetest thing. And she just adores attention. She won’t actively seek it out, but if you start petting her she will not let you stop.
And now for the puppy dogs.

My Lily baby. She’ll be turning four this year, so while she’s pretty much grown up, she’s still acts and looks like a baby. I love her to bits! My parents got her as a complete surprise on Valentine’s day a couple years back. (I was so shocked I actually started to cry, haha.) Unfortunately, she has epilepsy and she has seizures every so often. The first couple times it happened it was terrifying. Thankfully, we have her on some medication so that she doesn’t get them anymore. : ) (Or, at least not as often. She hasn’t had one since going on the meds, so…)

This is Lizzy. She passed away in March of 2011, but I still can’t bring myself to exclude her from this post. She was a German Shepherd mix and the most stubborn dog I’ve ever met. She lived a good 11 years, and I’ll always remember what a 100 pound chicken she was. The baby. ❤
So these are my wonderful (and odd) pets.
