Carlo, who, in his former incarnations, was Giacomo Casanova and a turkish padisha. Has to be that way, I can't explain how else he can be so cuddly, demanding and adorable. He's also the most patient cat in existence. He only scratched someone once in his whole life, when my sister dragged him through the house by the tail.
He's completely black, except for a few white hairs under his chin.

 
I have no idea, why he does this, but he keeps jumping you, and curling up around your neck, here he's in the middle of conquering my neck, while I was skyping with a friend:



Your cats are adorable -- especially Carlo!  (Although it's kind of eerie how he has NO CONTOURS AT ALL.  That second photo could be.... anything.)

I think he also makes a very stylish neck accessory (or work-out tool to bulk up your shoulder muscles).  I guess that's what Flik was trying to do in his legendary photo from MAGFest.

Did you ask them if they had a no-livestock policy though?
I mean, rabbits are delicious.

Heres my dog called Vili. He's an Spanish waterdog with a strong tendency to guard everyone in the family especially me since i'm the youngest one and used to be the shortest ( even now that i'm around 10cm+ taller than my brothers he still thinks im the weakest one  :P ). Added benefit of seeing me sick and that by the way really got his "Protect owner" circuits online since while he normally sleeps where ever when i was sick he essentially either staid just behind my door or went to sleep under my bed everytime i left my door open.




Here's an another photo. Note that he is impossible to take pictures of him since he always manages to got get a toy/ball and swiftly leaves the area of the camera.

Indeed and none of that fur (?) actually falls off so no stray dog hair around which is nice.

When he was still little he was even fluffier so it was lovely to hug him.

Oh wow, really? I didn't think that was possible! Is that what they mean when they say some breeds are hypo-allergenic?

Probably.  I'd never heard of the *Spanish* Water Dog till now, but it's probably related to the *Portuguese* Water Dog, which has a similar, poodle-like, non-shedding coat.  (And both breeds are incredibly cute!)
The Obama family chose PWDs as their White House pets because one of their daughters is allergic to regular dog hair.

When I looked up Spanish Water Dogs, the first photo that came up was a dog owned by a Finnish person named Taru!

I'm glad you have such a loyal friend, FV.  I still miss the poodle I had from the age of 6 to 18.

awww! he looks so fluffy and precious! Gotta love guard dogs! My dog was part border collie and always was happiest when we were all together in the same room, otherwise he didnt know who to watch over.

Yeah it's the same with him. Whenever there are people in different rooms he jogs between them constantly and when my parents are gone for longer than normal he gets really restless.

Really it's love and hate since he is really nice and likes to play a lot, but on the other hand he reaally likes to zealously guard the household and even the slightest sound drives him in to a barking storm that won't stop until he is sure that whatever made that sound is too scared to come again.

Oh gosh, everyone has such adorable cats! If this was a contest for the cutest cat there would be some big competition haha.

These two kitties are my babies~

Here is Gizmo, he is very playful and naughty at times. :3



And this is Gizmo's Father, Valentine. He's a total sweetie. <3



Hooray for cats! May they one day rule the world.

Is it bad that the first thing I noticed was the Quality Street box in the corner?

Hahaha! No not at all, I imagine that's the first thing I'd see too. No chocolates in there though, just a ton of postcards. x3

I didn't know that I can spend so much time looking at someone's pets!
They are all so sweet and nice, and I'm so jealous. Because I myself - owner of the monster.
Here it is - hyperactive beast with a terrible temper.
This rascal knows how to hide. I'm scared to death every time my plaid begins to hiss and try to bite me.


I have no idea how to write her name. Something like Yuzhik. It's an ancient word meaning roughly "little sister."

Regardless of being mean, she's a very pretty cat!
