Here's a picture of the bunny that Heather (my wife) brought home from work (mid 2002) - she had to save it from the kids she works with... :o:o:o
We've thought of all the usual names like 'Flopsy', 'Thumper', 'Bugsy', and 'Patch' as well as a few more personalised names like 'Edward' and 'Freddy' (because he has long sharp claws! :o).
We seem to have settled on "Bunny" because... well, he's a bunny. 😀
Feel free to post your pet pictures here. :thumb

I found three kittens on the side of the road near work early this year. I hate feral/stray cats, so I took them home. I found a home for one and got stuck with the other two.
This one is Sandy. He was the least tame of the three and bit me a beauty when I caught him and I bled all the way back to work, with my hand around his neck so he couldn't bite me again. It took quite a while to tame him, but now he loves me. 🙂
He really has a beautiful nature, its a pity he's so slow!! Here he is eating the rabbit's Bran Flakes!!

Poor Col🙁
I've seen a couple of your posts around, it looked as though you'd been busy on the forum
What's going on with the kombi?
Hey I love the pics of the pets. Rastus's eyes are an amazing colour
Sandy's a bit like a peach face parrot I had
It thought it was a rabbit and wound hop around on the ground with the rabbit and eat with it etc, so funny 😀
Hey forgetting to mention, Bel makes cricket noises now as well as dak dak sounds 🙂🙂🙂:thumb
Here's 'Snuggles (long story). She's a kelpie/blue heeler and was born in our Lounge-room on Xmas Day '92. A shot of her throwing the tennis ball for herself...

Last but not least, here's my old mate 'Kitty'. She's about 11 years old and was another 'side-of-the-road' job. I took this shot just now; as you can see she'd pretty relaxed....
[Edit] Alas, Kitty Kat was laid to rest last week after chronic kidney failure warranted one last trip to the vet.... Probably one of the most difficult things I've ever had to do; hold her in my arms while the vet administered the needle 🙁🙁🙁

Hi Jen,
Peewee (kombi) is getting a few additions, including the alarm & central-locking kit that has been floating around my shed for the past two years!! (Hooray!!😀)
Unfortunately work has been slow due to a couple of uncomfortable stitches (see photo) which make bending my fingers painful. I have been persisting with my fingers taped together. I really don't want to split these stitches because there isn't a chance in hell of me subjecting myself to another local anaesthetic injection into the nail bed!!
Progress finally came to a halt when I realised that I don't have the correct bolts to replace the one's I'm going to have to drill out of the driver's door hinge. 😠
How much improvement have you noticed since having the work done on Bel?
[Edit] I've deleted the photo in the name of good taste....

Ouch!!! You are in the wars. How did you do that?
How's the shoulder?
I figured you were probably missing a bit to continue with athe job.
Bel is going so well now. I think everything is finally sorted out. She's running like a dream and held the road so well today on the cruize
Hey and I can hear cricket noises like you said, so sweet 🙂
Love your menagerie, they're a cute lot
Look after yourself Col, no more injuries
Ok, just so everyone knows how easy it is to do yourself an injury... The shoulder Jen is asking about is my dislocated collarbone which I achieved when I slipped on a wet rock and fell on basically flat ground. About three months later it has basically come good, but its permanently dislocated.
The cut fingers were achieved while trying to get some new steak knives out of their packaging. They had zip ties stuck around the handle and I thought I'd pry them off with a butter knife......
The two most common ways to hurt yourself:
1. Doing something you do all the time, are comfortable with and don't believe is dangerous, and
2. Doing something you've never done before without thinking of the possible dangers.
Good things to remember when working around cars. Funnily enough, I don't seem to injure myself often in the workshop....

lol (sorry)
Good to see you feed your cat lots of nice grass Colin! LOL
Yeh, yeh, I know its really for the dog...
I mean rabbit. :P
Well the cat was eating the grass AND the Bran Flakes!! :o

Hope you had kitty litter handy!!?😀
Here are my two little terror kittens:

Jen, there is a kitty litter tray in the room. The rabbit is (mostly) house-trained and uses it. I do find hard little black balls around the house though. :o
Andrew, interesting shot of Meebles. That really gives me a better idea what he/she looks like. 😀
Rob, nice bunnies!!! Those four lined up are the cutest!! I'm going to be building a bunny-run in my backyard very soon, I'll post some pics when it's up. How do your bunnies like the car? Our's came home via a 90 min drive sitting behind the back seat in the bug and was quite happy! :thumb I though the noise or heat might have bothered it, but apparently not!
I should have titled the thread "Show us your pets". Has anybody else got some 'Pet Pics" they want to share?

This is out the front of my Sydney residence. You can see the top of my Toyota Echo that I had up there, and the lovely Jacaranda tree.

So many bunnys!!
And cats..
Heres my Phoenix - he swears terribly and loves singing to Eminem....
Next you'll be calling yourself "The Dub Symbol"!!:P
Andrew: ...and Greebo! 😀
Jen, did you actually post a pic?:o
Kruizin Kol
Yep, I can see it on my screen?
WORKING HARD
😀😀😀😀 Cool pic!!! :thumb
Jen, I see it now. I'm connected via yet another ISP. 😠
Kruizin Kol
Oh good you had me worried that I was the only one seeing it for some reason. I've noticed that sometimes I don't see pics when others seen to, judging by posts.
Hey Manx is a very laid back cat 🙂
This is our friend who shares a house with us. His name is Sid Vicious
He was saying something profound when I took this shot, but for the life of me I cannot remember what it was.

lol😀
Hey Vee Dubbers are real cat people.
Wonder if anyone has anything unusual out there in the pet department?
I could show you my elephant, but I believe rude pics have been banned! 😀
Kruizin Kol
Weird pets ? Not really, but I do have a Jack Russel Terrier (called Russell 🙂 ) who stands about a foot and a half tall (thats huge for a pure bred Jack. And my fiancee has a Jack that stands about 8 inches 🙂 Talls and smalls .....
We have two turtles called A'Tuin and Gryphon, but I don't have any pics scanned.
Will try to remember to take some to work tomorrow 😎

We used to have a cat, Geri. It always lived inside and was never let out for any reason. I think it only ever saw the outside world twice and that was for a vet check ups. Anyhow he got out one night and came back in the morning then for the next two weeks went mad continually trying to get out everytime someone came in or out. Eventually he got out and didn't come back the next morning. Neighbours claim that they saw the Strata gardner taking him away to the RSPCA in a trap so we wnet down to collect him but he managed to escape from the RSPCA as well. So no more Geri.
We have always had fish. I have bred fancy guppies for a long while and recently put gold fish into onle of our breding tanks for the boys. They had three each so I went and bought three Koi as well. Man do they grow fast!
They all have names and are looked after by the boys daily.
I still miss Geri and one day when we move will get another cat with a shared indoor / outdoor run.
