My Pets

I love animals! If had lots of land and a big house, I would go to the animal shelter and rescue all the dogs and cats I could so they could come live with me.

Well, I don't have lots of land or a big house, but I was still able to adopt one dog and two cats.

My dog Blue This is Blue. The people at the shelter said he was ugly, which was why no one would adopt him. What?! I think he looks great! Dave and I brought him home on my birthday. I like to call this picture "Blue with Bluebells."

This is a picture of Blue with Cosmo. Cosmo is also a rescue animal. I saw him at a cat-adoption day at a pet store. He was very afraid in his cage, so I took him home. He was afraid at home, too! He hid behind a couch for weeks! He's still shy around strangers, but he's very playful with me. And he loves Blue, as you can see.

My cat Cleo And this is Cleo! Cleo is the latest addition to our family, also from a rescue group. Cleo has beautiful green eyes and long black fur. She and Cosmo hissed when they first saw each other, but now they're best friends.

I love watching my animals play and be happy. It's sad to think that someone had to give them away and that they ended up in a shelter. I actually saw Blue's picture for the first time on a web site: www.petfinder.org. If your family is looking for a pet, check it out! You'll see lots of animals that need homes. And it feels so good to save an animal from a shelter.
