I thought that this week, given the RR topic, we'd be inundated with pet pics, Shane had a go as did Carole and Shoey, but it never took off the way cats did, have we exhausted the subject? So to get my best mates their international internet 15 mins of fame here they are, Seamus, Jasmine, Marley, Biko, Chips and the brown cat.
Seamus is the world's best dog, no argument, he's a German Shepherd, about 12+ years old, we've had him since a pup,
he's amazingly intelligent and does everything except speak English. That nose is like radar, ditto those ears; I used to pull a weed and toss it out into the field, 40-50ft and he'd chase after it with his nose glued to the ground going round and round in ever decreasing circles until he found it, then he'd bring it back to me. All that based on the fact that I'd touched it for about a second! During all that recent Pink Floyd listening I didn't pick up on the 'Seamus' cut on the Meddle album until it was mentioned at RR, my Seamus does a way better wolf howl than the PF dog, everytime an ambulance goes by it triggers him and Marley together.
Jasmine was the runt of the litter so we got her free, she's his best friend and has an absolutely wonderful personality, she doesn't just wag her tail ecstatically to greet you, she wags the entire read end. She goes insane. The frog was also her best fiend for a while, totally inseparable.
Marley you met about 10 months ago, now he's working at becoming a handsome young man, we bought him so there would be a continuity when Seamus died, he's not as smart but he's going to be OK. 
Biko; he adopted us in Long Beach in about 1988, he was an alley cat, thin as a rail and used to eating out of trashcans, when he found us he thought he'd died and gone to cat heaven; a warm bed and regular meals. We used to travel a lot in an RV, he came everywhere with us, he'd prowl backwards and forwards across the 6ft wide dashboard absolutely intrigued with that huge world out there. He died of old age some years ago but is very fondly remembered.
Chips, AKA Sascha depending on who's talking to him thinks he's a dog, he follows me everywhere, if I go into the kitchen to make a cup of tea he'll follow me and sit at my feet 'til I'm done, then he'll follow me back; he spends a lot of time sitting on my lap having his ears rubbed when I'm at the computer.
BrownCat is very afraid of something, probably from a prior lifetime, he sleeps upstairs all the time only showing his face at meal times, I'm trying to get him to let me get close to him, sometimes he lets me touch him.
OK, so there they are, I think if you click on 'em they'll get bigger, does anybody else have pets to share?
Count this as a bonus ps; I recently came across this pic in my photo file. I've long been an admirer of Morton Subotnik, one of the early electronic musicians, in the late 80's I saw this picture of him in the LA Times, I couldn't believe it, he looked exactly like me, so I had a friend take this pic of me in the same pose, I always wanted to send it to him but never did.
