Pets Allowed

October 6, 2025

A collection of creatures that are not always well-behaved and not always that cute. And then there’s our pets.

“Dennis, do you mind if Mrs. Carlisle comes in and sees your rhino tube-farm?”

“Polly wanna finger.”

“Now calm down there, ma’am … your cat’s gonna be fine … just fine.”

“Through the hoop, Bob! Through the hoop!”

“Gad, it gives me the creeps when he does that. I swear that goldfish is possessed or something.”

“It’s Bob, all right ... but look at those vacuous eyes, that stupid grin on his face—he’s been domesticated, I tell you.”

“Oh, no! I have several others—Oggy here is just a tad aggressive, so he has to stay in a cage.”
