Let's see your pets
What we do when we aren't skinning

Don't recall this before. People show off their "stuff" sometimes, computers, kids, where they live......How about their pets?
Here's a pic of my pet. The mantis. I caught it in the bushes where I work in October before it started to get cold. I feed it crickets from the pet store. It moves around real slow until it grabs a cricket. I love the little killer!

Well that's orright, then... tho I dunno I'd want my leg back after a cannibal had chomped on it. 
[I read somewhere that a human bite can actually be more dangerous (infection-wise) than some animal bites]
Yeah, my cockatiel used to fly over and eat with us at the dinner table. He'd eat potato, peas, carrot... anything fruit or vegetable, and occasionally some meat if we ground it up for him. Unfortunately, my ex [second wife] got him in the divorce settlement. It was either that or give her the rottweiler we had, and that wasn't a good idea as she was living in a poky little apartment at the time.
Geez, that's coming up for 20 years ago... my, how time flies when you're not married to a complete b**ch.

I think my bird thinks she is human...she demands some of whatever we are eating...she will screech until we give her something. She eats some of our breakfast, lunch, supper, and bedtime snack...that is in addition to her bird seed. The vet told me she could eat anything we eat, except for avocado, apple seeds, and chocolate...they are poisonous for her. And she cannot eat beef. He said everything else is ok. We don't give her meat, except for a teeny bit we leave on the chicken bone. This bird is spoiled rotten!

They are extremely social animals and behaviors around food are social for them as well... she expects you to behave as she does... not vice versa, MJ. Don't let that ruffle your feathers.

First there's Thanksgiving dinner for a Mantis! Then there's our little girls. The Black one is JIJI. The white ones are Michelle and Loli.

It's nice to see that some people have given their pets better names than something like Mr. Tibbles. Up until just over a month ago, my partner had a cat that she took off one of her friends hands. Originally his name was Sunny, because of the colour of his fur, but we felt that didn't really fit him, so we renamed him Walter, after Walter Matthau. It was a lot more fitting for him as he didn't like people, didn't like other cats, and didn't go out (I felt something of a simpatico with him). Basically, he was a grumpy old cat.
Unless, of course, he liked you and felt comfortable around you, in which case he was the most loving cat you could wish to have. Oh, and he was a big fat cat, lol.
He died of old age, and I still miss him.
I have all these photos of him on my computer that I can't bring myself to look at yet. There is a happy ending though. He's presently haunting my partner. She hears him moving around downstairs from time to time, and she feels him jumping up on the bed next to her, like he always did. That's right, she has a phantom fat cat.

Hey!
He wasn't referring to the canines, Jim. To Vulcans, we are disturbingly pink.
CANNIBALISM!!
