My dad is fond of saying “Not all pet owners are crazy, but all crazy people have pets.” Truer words never spoken.

dogs
I've owned my rescued pit bull Samsung (Sam, if you're nasty!) for less than a week, but, man, oh, man, is there a lot to learn. Help?
cats
Every morning, at 4:30 am, like clockwork, my stupid effing cat starts mrowling and screeching like a banshee.

FATTY MCBUTTERPANTS, you guys.

While I hope everyone seriously considers adopting their next pet from a shelter, no one talks about how difficult it can be to raise a shelter pet or a pet that is the product of an abusive previous home life.
diets
Just a few weeks ago, I had a conversation with my partner in which I'd announced that I had decided that I was going to accept my body at this larger size if it meant that I could just live my life eating normally and he was fucking elated. Now I'm all like, "Uh, nevermindsies."

You have your baby, and I have mine.
cats
He doesn’t adore me, unconditionally or otherwise, but that hasn’t stopped me from developing feelings for him. Feelings I’ve never felt for a cat before.
cat acceptance
I have spent the past several days giving food to a cat that doesn’t want it, and on the scale of difficulty, this ranks somewhere between assembling a different IKEA desk once every hour or so all day long, and performing brain surgery on yourself.

Once she ran across my entire apartment to claw my mother-in-law’s hand for no reason.
dogs
I am cursed now with a cockblock dog whom I love dearly and would never take out of my life, which, needless to say, makes dating guys difficult.
cats
Just so you know, this entire article is just an excuse to post gratuitous pictures of my cat wearing clothes.
murder
I was in my apartment when I heard screaming and gunshots coming from somewhere in my building.
cat acceptance
Having been a person who was once publicly eviscerated in comment threads for having a giant cat, I like it when cats and owners get the chance to set the record straight.
pets
I can reduce myself to tears simply by imagining any combination of my pets past or present bravely traversing the wilderness searching for me out of loyalty, love and devotion.
babies
24 hours after we got the baby, I realized I had yet to feed/think about/look at/or talk to the previous vortex of our household's love and attention.
pets
I don't live beyond my means, but my cats do.

I'm going to get all Crazy Cat Lady on your ass for a moment so just be cool.

I'll have none of your dogs and cats, or your budgies or guinea pigs -- frankly, they can all fuck off as long as bunnies are around.
animal death
My dead cat is more popular than cancer, but he deserves it.
adoption
When it’s been emotionally or financially taxing, I’ve still felt nothing but extraordinarily fortunate to share my home with such wonderful friends.

How does one keep the pet stank out of the house, anyway?
