Pet Project 365: Give Me NOMS!!

   I just read about the Pet Project 365 over at Kol's Notes, which is being hosted by Kolchak and Lulu and Wally. I thought it was a great idea; I've always kind of wanted to do something similar but I lacked motivation I suppose. With this project, I found my motivation in:
    a) a blog hop and
    b) no rules! Yay! I can do it however I want. My simple minded brain never thought of starting a 365 project with no specific theme besides pets, but that's what will make me do it every day. Because conforming to a theme seems like a chore.

   Besides, it's a great idea. I get a little teary-eyed when I think back to Ren and Stimpy most recently, and other pets that have passed on, and I realize how I took almost no pictures of them. Pets, whether Riley-sized or Jack-sized, do not stay on this earth with us long enough, so memories are all the more precious. And what better way to describe a memory than a photo?

   Anyways, here's what I'm going to do:

   I am going to take a few pictures of one/some of my "zoo members" every day.

   I am going to try to post at least one picture every day. If not, I will catch up on the day that I do get to posting.

   I am going to try to alternate who the pictures are of. One day the rats, next day one of the dogs, next day the snakes, and so on.

   Maybe I will include a little story with my picture. Maybe not. It depends.

   Thanks for the motivation Kolchak, Lulu, and Wally!

   GO!:




Day One: Every night, before I go to bed, during my nightly check on the ratties, they all get a little gerber puff treat. It's how I make up for my paranoia-induced daily physical exams, because rats develop tumors and abscesses and go downhill way too quickly </3.
