“Charlie is our darling!”

Canada gets the kudos this year with Charlie from Ottawa Canada taking the “Pet of the Year” honor for 2009.

This good-natured canine loves people and brings smiles to many at a local seniors’ residence. He also seems to like getting his picture taken when visiting his pals in the local sand pit and dog park.

Sweet Hamster from Seattle

Pets catch at our hearts and Ben from Seattle is no exception. Ben is the Pet-of-the-Month over at MillionDollarPetPix home of the PetPix Time Capsule.

Bees, Bears and Winter…

Yes, we know what you are thinking… bees are not pets!
As a rule we’d generally agree though we’re sure bee-keepers and the pet lover community in general may feel differently.

Halloween Fun…

There are many reasons why pets prefer to go into hiding around Halloween, as evidenced by the many weird and wonderful costumes in which their owners dress them. While we get hearty laughs from the various get-ups we see through our never-ending email photos, one really has to wonder how good all this fussing around can possibly be for the animal companion. No matter how serious a person may be, seeing some of these pet costumes can really make one laugh out loud.

People Caring for Pets in Disaster

Pets do matter to people, even when human lives are endangered!

Having a pet website may seem like a frivolous thing to many. In relation to all the famine and disaster in the world and the worry about basic human survival… well yes, a pet blog is hugely insignificant. But it is incredibly interesting to know that even amidst major disasters, that money, effort and emotions are also spent to rescue animals… even by the very people whose lives are in peril from whatever natural disaster is plaguing them.
