Post your pet photos! They cheer us all up so much. No pet? No problem just post a picture of something you like: flower, cup of tea, a sunset. Let’s share some good today

*This is Charlie. She never met a toy she couldn’t destroy in under 10 minutes 🙂

I guess you don't like hedgehogs. He takes no offense. I find some people creep out over him. They have never seen one.

I think it's how I would feel about a snake of those animals that have the suction cup feet... gieco I think it is .

I saw a man in the pet store with one crawling up his arm. He loved his baby but that wouldn't be for me

Willow2022 profile image
Willow2022 in reply to Dolphin14

I love hedgehogs. I’m not sure there is any animal I don’t like. Oh except maybe chimps. I don’t want to have anything to do with an animal that is smart as me and can also rip my arms off and beat me with them. No thank you

Thank you Rizzo. I was just writing to Willow how some people react very different to him. But, he is a little love. I had 3 guys moving for me last week. Seeing big strapping moving guys in their 30's taking photos of this tiny thing made me smile. He was a spec in their big hands :)

My little shadow, Poppy, under the foot of my side of the bed. Every day when I wake up, I find her there. After her sister died the other year, we decided to let her sleep under the bed to ensure she didn't feel lonely. She's free to roam the house and she will sometimes come downstairs for food, then head back upstairs.She has built her own little warren amongst the clothes and bed sheets in the drawers under the bed.

She is happy to sit and have a fuss, but it's always on her terms! My favourite thing is to lie on the floor and let her walk on my back. The 4 paws is a really odd, but brilliant feeling.

Loving Dylan the Villain! He doesn't look too villainous. My lot are always looking for treats, so we're trying to cut back, but it's so difficult because as soon as they hear a wrapper rustle they are over to investigate!

MadBunny profile image
MadBunny in reply to Spud-u-Like1982

Yep Dyl is very treat driven too. Any rustle and he comes running. Even a crisp packet. He knows I keep the treats on the table next to the sofa and if I reach out to get something else he's suddenly there.

Spud-u-Like1982 profile image

Goes to mental health foundation and autism and learning disabilities charities and any others in need of help and support I started these colouring letters when I was in a mental health illness a year ago and I wanted to make a difference to others and put God's unconditional love and hope in the world if you don't like me using God's word then that's not who I am learning it out by putting my faith in why I started these colouring letters was because of what God wanted me to make a difference in this world and it gave me purpose and my identity who I am my true self because God wanted me to do something bigger than myself and my struggles despite of all my battles and illnesses and struggles he gave me to share the love of God by these colouring letters and people who have these letters love them and said they are beautiful and it's because God is beautiful and they are beautiful who have them and they are broken but he uses our broken pieces into something beautiful and reshape it's to anew into something was bad into something good believe it or not. One piece of his handiwork of God. If I left God out of this then it wouldn't be true because I started these colouring letters from a very tiny seed and it grew and grew like a flower and now in one year I have done about a 1,000 and I raised over £400 for donations for charities in UK at the moment. I am still raising donations and though I have voices telling me to stop these but I am not giving up on them because I am putting good into people who have these colouring letters and who still requesting these. Dentist, gp surgery and hospital departments and contact centre has a welcome sign that I did of these colouring letters and my charity groups and my care company and my church has their names of their places have them and some have positive words in my colouring letters some have their own names and their family names and initials and I do for couples and children and adults and any words or names they request and favourite places and I did the word craft for a craft room group. I didn't realise how massive its grown in one year its really amazing and I have many disabilities and mental illnesses and physical illnesses it's not about what we can and can't do it's just finding something that we are good at and being used in a good way to make a difference my mental illnesses and depression and anxiety disorder will not change today or tomorrow or in my lifetime or my physical health illnesses will not change in my lifetime but if I can make a difference in this world don't matter how small it is as longs I have done my best I can do then at least I have been abled to make a big difference to the lives of others that was in need maybe it saved someone's life by seeing something very beautiful in my colouring letters and helped them to keep going without giving up and it made difference to others to do their best they can in their day better today than their situations and circumstances because when we give our problems and pain and stresses and struggles the full amount of our time and energy that it takes over our lives that's when we need to have something good that we can do that we are good at because we all sometimes put all our stuff into too much dwelling on it all and wasting our lives on stuff that we cannot change but we can all do something different to improve our day in and out and we change our focus on what we enjoy doing and have a interest to these that help us rather than negatives that doesn't help us feel better negatives are lies really but really difficult to overcome as I still struggling with negatives and its really difficult to think of positives but if we say like drawing or painting or colouring or writing creative writing or music or walking and running or poetry just anything you are really good at or have something that others have that's our purpose to make a difference to others and then it makes a difference to us as well that's why I have chosen mental health and autism and learning disabilities and contact centre is because I have these struggles all my life if anyone sad and stress and depressed I go out when I'm sad and depressed and smile at others even though I don't feel happy and when one person smiles and by the time I am lot better than when I left the flat this is what I did when I was really stuck in the very dry mud of depression and it would not go and I decided to go out for some fresh air round the block and I come back home refreshed but I at to take my inside feelings away from my mind by smiling at someone and keep smiling at each person passers-by and it works well I couldn't believe the results smiling is very contagious if you want to make your day better go out and smile at someone who is not smiling and when you smile at them they smile back at you you don't have to speak if you don't want to but just smile at them is enough to make them smile and it makes them smile and made their day better as they made our day better too as they smile at you so you get in return a blessing because you started smiling at them first of all. It's tells them you are interested and that they matter and it shows firstly unconditional love on others so on mankind a compassion and kindness to others that you care about others even though you don't know them but you look up at them and see them who they are you are not judging them in body language there is more to meet the eye a saying from many years ago. You can make a difference to others that are feeling similar to ourselves seeing someone else sad smile at them and it moves their hearts and minds to you that smile at them that we don't know them but this person is smiling at me and then they feel wow I am loved and cared about as they could be in a situation where their own family who knows them but who are not speaking to them and this lady or man is smiling at me that doesn't know me at all they start to think I must be loved and important and its a miracle that I matter to the world if someone else smiles at me who I don't know at all I have had a miracle today and a blessing from someone who don't know me I feel good now because someone else knew that I needed someone to cheer me up and I went out to cheer someone else up and myself up and be lifted out of the mud of depression we build each other up that's why we need each other we need people in our lives when we are struggling they lift us up and when they need it we build them up out from their struggles and then we see God working through us with each other it's really amazing and inspiring someone is blessing me today and I have received a miracle today that's when you know that there is loving God that helps us. We should be open with our feelings and thoughts people talk about other things like other

I keep seeing these comments about a dog named Charlie. but I have not seen any photos of him yet so many comments.

Charlie was a dog I never talked about until I mentioned him here one time, he was hit by a car and died in my arms. sorry if I’ve ruined everyone’s happy thread here I don’t understand and I feel stalked.

I started this thread and posted a pic of my dog Charlie in the original post. I am so very sorry if it triggered you and caused you undeserved stress.

litethatnevergoesout profile image
litethatnevergoesout in reply to Willow2022

it’s all coming together I see it now. I was caught off guard and alerted by a member I had been triggered. I have apologized I feel ridiculous no need to say you’re sorry. this is part of why I stay away from pet posts normally.

I can’t tell the difference between stress or anything these days. appreciate you. I am sorry I didn’t think to look at the original post close enough, I got caught just reading replies it was all my fault. in fact it was my fault Charlie got hit, a large part of why I have never ever talked about it minus this time and on a different thread here many months ago. this post and thread are not about me. i am sorry I want to delete my responses but it’s ok.

Willow2022 profile image
Willow2022 in reply to litethatnevergoesout

Please don’t apologize. Your feelings are valid and don’t apologize for that. Losing a pet is difficult and it sounds like you went through some trauma with it. I am still dealing with guilt/trauma from one of my dogs death from 12 years ago. I am here if you need to talk

It's years since I lost my dog, I couldn't go through it again. I'd look at dogs and cry.

That's how I got Tara.

it’s tough Books isn’t it.

Sure is Mr. Lite. But the intensity doesn't hurt as bad.

These are our newest fur babies! Emma (standard poodle - 4 months) and Rolo ( 9 weeks - dockapoo). Our rescues from Az, USA Nina and Niko passed at 18 and 19 years old last spring. Our hearts were so empty we needed to go there again but certainly didn’t think we would get puppies never mind two but my hubby and I are definitely that kind of Crazy! Blessings to all of you who have opened your hearts to all animals, you are brave bc it really hurts when they leave us. Hugs to all !!!

Getting there, it will take a few more weeks (months- that’s why I say crazy) before Rolo has more brain development. Emma is pretty gentle with him and sometimes the way they cuddle melts your heart but as a big sister you don’t want your brother on your heels all day.

This looks a lot like my Tara.

I don't have a camera, so Google helped with that one. But Queen Tara gets into any- and everything she chooses -- or else.

She looks lovely. My daughter loves all birds. She wants to work with them when she gets older. Possibly raptors.

She desperately wants to feed the crowd by our house and make friends with them 🙂

Ya, bird feeders can turn into raptor feeders. The circle of life.

This is my current favorite parrot video. (Turn on the volume.)
