Picture Weekend - The Animal Shelter

Posted in: , , ,
Hi everyone, thanks so much for making it with me this far, one year into my blogging.

****

Do any of you have a cat or a dog? I hope you're treating them well sha.

Last weekend, Atala came up with this idea. He's been toying with getting a pet, a dog and a German Shepard in particular. I'm not big on animals living in the house, maybe a hamster or a fish I suggested. Anyway, he decided we go check out the animal shelter and see if any of the animals was calling our name. Calling our names? See me see wahala. OK o, we carried our kaya and went. Thank God none was calling HIS name, as for me, certainly no cat or dog will be calling my name in the forseeable future, lol. But the visit made me think about what brought the animals there in the first place, some even had battle wounds. Pity! At least the Humane Society is taking care of them and there were lots of people there willing to adopt.

Enjoy the pics my people and have a great weekend. Love you guys, Mwah!

    Don't do the pet thing since I've been in this country, not condusive to it at least in my way of thinking. Back home (Trinidad & Tobago) our pets live outside in their own houses. Here people have them sleep in their bed and such, am not really down with that, so I just enjoy them from afar.

    In the Islands we had dogs, monkey, parrot, cat, iguanas. My only pet now is my lovelable and totally irresistable 1 year old God son. I call him "Man Man". A heart stealer that one.....

  2. The last dog is so cute. *Sigh* For I and hubby this is the reverse, I want a pet (preferably a puppy) to call my name, he doesn't want any such thing. Lol.

  3. I am not a fan of "live in pets". These pictures are CUTE! I think Standtall should see these cats! meow!

    I really envy people who have pets, considering all the effort one IS expected to put in to give these pets the best!

    Stay blessed!

  4. I love the white cat....I can hear it meow-ing my name.

    For hubby n I, the issue is, I'm more of a cat or bird person, while he's a dog person, anyways, no one is talking pets for now :).

    Enjoy the weekend Myne

  11. Thanks all.

    @NaijaLines, that is part of my aversion to pets o. Beyond the cuteness, they're a big responsibility.

  17. I adore animals. Has several cats when i was growing up. I don't have a pet anymore because there is no time to feed or cuddle. Hmmm, maybe one day.

  18. awww, that's such a cute idea. I fear the thought of adopting a grown dog because I have issues with training (pooping, biting, barking). Do you know if these dogs have been re-trained or pre-trained by the pet store?

  19. @Tetekai, maybe it's cos I didn't have any pets growing. I was scared of dogs at a point.

    @AP, you have a point there. I believe the animals have been retrained, the staff say there's a routine.
