Awwww, that's so adorable XD I love how cats are so interested in everything.
He is a little tiger indeed, and a stunning one at that lol
She really is fantastic She loooves men and then my friends who are girls are afraid to hold her lol. Other then me Rosie only tolerates women. That's one reason why socializing is so important, if I didn't force her to interact with other women she would bite them all the time. It also helps that I'm a girl and she adores me.
Wow that bird is such a stunner!!
This is the only pic I have of Oliver and the fish (an old one of Lakitu). He doesn't care about them! Which is good I suppose. He always wants to help me feed them though, I think he wants to steal their delicious food!
Two of the 3 boys-Mathew, Mark and Luke all grown up now-but still help me when I work on the tanks-Mathew tries to get the food out of the tanks when I feed and all 3 sit next to the bucket and slap at the water coming out of the siphon and drink the water and for what ever reason they like to stand on the edges of the buckets and if they are not full they get turned over...what a mess I put up with.....lol.....

Your cats are sooo adorable! If the top is off my friends 3g fish keeper her cat will come over and stick her face in it and start drinking the water. She doesn't get to do it to often, and when she does we stop her because she'll drop a bunch of hair in the water and it will need to be changed lol
Laffs......On one of my 20gal grow out tanks on the bottom rack-the cats use it for their water bowl-(they like fish flavored water)....lol.....anyway....they must drop cat food crumbies in it when they drink because the fish respond to them like they do me at feeding time...kinda funny to watch and I often wonder if any of the cat ever got their tongue bit.....lol.....and cat hair...geeze....when you have as many cats that I do (29) in and out of the house....I have lots of cat hair in my tanks and it has never caused any problems for the fish or tanks and I use a topical flea/tick drops every 3 months in the winter and monthly in the summer-never has been an issue....
Notice how few dogs are taking an interest in the fish. Well mine never could because the dogs aren't allowed upstairs where all of my tanks are, but the cats sure do. I've only been able to snap this one picture.
This is Potpourri looking into one of my divided tanks. Knucker (the fish) didn't really like it.
A vegetable crisper!! HA! What a perfect idea! For people who claim to not have a larger space for their bettas! lol Most fridges come with TWO crispers!!! Mine doesn't but I've seen it.
ya, mine's the medium sized "mini" american Eskimo I chose this breed bc one of my best friend had one and it was really smart and adorable. It just looks really pretty to me with all the white coat, super smart and obedient when I first got her at 8 weeks of age, she already know how to pee on puppy pee pad by herself! she learned how to shake hand in 5 minutes! I love her so much hehe... look at me going crazy talking about her...
My rats love to sniff the tanks, but their eyesight is so poor I don't think they know there is anything inside them. Even if they did, they are all scared of water.
poor John! i'm glad you got him and are taking care of his nasty wound. ;n; imbedded collars make me SO mad! how hard is it to remove a collar when you see it's getting too tight?
as for my pets and fish, i only have a cat who loves the taste of fish water. :I he doesnt' hurt the fish! just drinks out of Twitch's tank when i change his water. xD i actually have a little .5 gallon KK that has my Java Moss sitting in the window, and he drinks that. he has two water bowls full all the time, but still goes back to the moss tank. :I silly kitty.

Especially on cats and intact males should never have collars-first you should be getting them neutered so they don't roam...but that is another pet peeve of mine.......In my area people dump animals or move-leaving their pets behind.....rather sad and irresponsible.......
My hospital tank stays on the kitchen counter for easy monitoring, and when one of my boys was in there for an extended stay, my tiny kitten Tish would always be jumping up there (it isn't the counter we use for FOOD, evidently.. haha) and quite literally laying down next to the tank and curling herself around it. She'd often sleep there, and Isaac got quite used to it. Cutest thing ever.
This thread is great! Love Rosie she is a beautiful bird and love everyone's curious cats.
My cat loves staring at the pond he sits there and watches all the fish swim... He has yet to discover the betta tanks
Laki - Yup, my dog is a minature American Eskimo. He is 9 years old and I had him since he was 3 months old.

They had to give me a new frige cause the old one quit working. one day I decided the veggie krispers would make nice tanks since I never had fresh veggies anyways. There are 2 but they got stuck together when I moved and I have yet to get them unstuck :-?. They hold about 3-4 gallons each. I took them with me when I left Alaska in Jan. :twisted:
Aw! How cute! My cat does not care about fish! YAY. He doesn't go near them, however when he passes the tanks to get to me or the window the fish get all dragon-like and mean and flare. Unreturned love I suppose!
Also, snowshoe cat= LOVE!!
