Meet my little love...Satan. This well-behaved pet has been residing with us since 1996. He is a favorite of the grands and has given more than one home-repair man the fright of their life. Because I love him so, you have to naturally assume that he is dead. Yup. What other kind of dog would I allow on the furniture? I know, I'm awful. It's not that I hate dogs. I've had several myself. Cocker spaniels being the family favorite. I've helped Lindsey's cocker, Mercedes, birth two batches of puppies....in my living room no less. But I've been chased by far too many of the beasts on my bike to even count. That is why I like to name dogs "Satan".
Cats? Never met a cat I didn't want to personally kill. But BUNNIES. Now that is a pet for everyone. I prefer angoras and mini-lops. We have had bunnies for about 7 years. We let them roam free on our property and have never know one to wander off. Get eaten by a fox YES, but wander off, NO.

In that same strain, I refer to all dogs as "devil dog."
Claire, you and I are made from the same cloth!
Why is it I am not afraid of dogs, I'll kill a spider without a second thought, I run down your street and any other one in the valley all the time yet.... I won't hold a bunny, had an out of body experience with a snake, and even coyote skins give me the willies.
How did I not know that dogs name was Satan? Sad. I've been referring to him as Fluffy.
Those are some funny comments you have going there. I definitely have developed your fear of dogs and general dislike for their slobber and hair. My little Bucky Bunny is being prepped to come and run the circle of life at your house. Let me know as soon as "Rodeo" that dam* cat is caught and I will bring up sweet little Buckwheat.
No! I want buckwheat!!!
if i hadn't been chased and scared to death by so many dogs before i had children, they could have had a much different childhood. . . but as it is, the list is long with why we can't own one. my sister-in-law jessica thinks i'll get a dog when all my kids are grown and out of the house cause i'll be so lonely. she should be a comedian.
and may i just say- way to get some comments from wowclaire! good job claire!
Poor bunnies getting eaten by a fox - ACK!
Have a good day - Kellan
I don't know can we get into heaven if we don't love dogs or cats? I knew there was a reason I've felt bonded to you in a weird way. It is our distain for certain animals no doubt. My sister has the cutest bunny that looks like a lion, I think thats what they're called.
you crack me up Aunt Mary Ann. I always thought that the milk-man running over the cat was a great idea until I actually ran over Bailey's cat, Jimmer, a few months ago. It was so traumatic - I'll never be the same. And as for Bunnies - they poop and smell and are complete takers ;). WHY Bunnies??
Love you!
LOL Catherine! Bunnies don't scratch, get hair all over your patio furniture and deposit urine smells so badly that you have to recarpet and re-sheet rock your house! Don't get Lindsey started:)
haha I agree, bunnies are by far the best! And, I love your dog satan. Dogs are cute, but I would hate to clean up after them.
Remind me not to give you my cat.
After having two bunnies for the last two months, I'm not sure why anyone would want one, all they do is eat a lot, poop a lot, and scratch. They do pee in a litter box, so there's that, but bleck. However, during the great flood of Memorial Day this year, I did jump out of bed and rescue the little buggars, and then I made my boys sleep with them so they wouldn't freeze to death. See, I'm not completely heartless.
I think that was my longest comment ever.
