it’s been a while since i posted a picture of my dog Rocky, and i’ve never posted a pic of my cats Kisa or Wind, so I thought i’d just do that while i’m booping around on tumblr xD give you guys a break from kpop :’D

I’m gonna talk about all my pets and stuff, and it’s gonna get loooooong so feel free to ignore it xD imma put it under a cut~

Kisa is my baby <3 she was born next to me and i’ve had her the entire 12 years she’s been on this earth ;u; she’s nuttier than a kitten and climbs the walls when she’s had a whiff of catnip. She can also jump 6ft straight up and can jump about the same horizontally, haha! You would never know she was 12 years old if you saw her running around being her crazy self xD

I haven’t had Wind her whole life, only about 15 years or so! (only 15, haha) She’s deaf now, but she still gets around surprisingly well and loves to be petted and brushed (which is a good thing because she’s decided in the last 6 months or so that grooming isn’t something she needs to do because she has people for that OTL) she also likes to yell at me when i’m not getting her food to her fast enough :’D she’s a little underweight atm, but we did bloodwork at the vet and her bloodwork looks great???? no thyroid issues o: she did have a slight heart murmur tho so she’s on meds for that now :’D i do everything i can for her and she seems to be doing good! noisy old lady cat pfft

I’ve talked quite a bit about Rocky on here <3 he’s also my baby! I rescued him from being put down at the shelter when he was about a year old, and i’ve had him almost 5 years now ;u; he’s been having some problems in the last year or so with his spine and hips, but we’re managing it pretty well. Some days are better than others :c i’m just trying to keep him as happy and healthy as i can for as long as i can, and it seems to be going okay so far!

The cat pictured above was Callie. I think i’ve mentioned my other cat Callie before? Not sure, haha~ Callie was a cat i found as a kitten up in the mountains close to where I live. She was living in a feral colony in the woods that was being fed by an older lady in a trailer :’D it was my 7th birthday and I asked my parents if I could take her home, since our previous cat, Sweetie, had had to be put down due to a fast growing cancerous tumor in her throat a couple of years before, leaving us cat-less. My parents finally agreed and we loaded Callie up and took her home. She wasn’t actually the kitten I wanted, but she was sick, and i think that’s the only reason the lady could catch her xD it worked out well, though, because we got her all doctored up and had her for 16 interesting years. She wasn’t always a friendly cat. Most of the time she’d rather bite or scratch than be petted, but I loved her anyways. She was my fat, grumpy old lady, and she mellowed out some as she got older. about a year ago, though, we noticed a lump on her belly... this lump progressively got bigger and ended up being a tumor. We really let it go on too long and I regret that, but I finally got the tumor removed. Callie, despite being 16 years old, made it through the surgery okay and healed up great. i was very optimistic about her having a few more years in her, and was fully prepared to do whatever I could to keep her going, but a few weeks after we had her tumor removed, she started having trouble breathing :c we took her back to the vet and found out she had fluid around her lungs. They drew the fluid off and it turned out to be lymphoma. I had the fluid drawn off once a week for several weeks, and she managed to make it through new years, but more and more problems started popping up, and she was in so much pain I decided to have her put down. Even now, months later, I still tear up looking at pictures or videos of her. 16 years of my life I spent with this grumpy cat who wanted to be on your lap every time you sat down, but didn’t want you to touch her half the time, and suddenly she was gone. I still miss you, Callie :c it took a long time for me to stop looking for her when I came home, and there’ll always be a Callie-shaped hole in my home that no other animal will be able to fill

...moving on to less sad things, i also have a few more pets that you guys have never seen on here :’D i have two gerbils, both girls, named Kaipo and Orin! Kaipo is a nutmeg, and Orin is a polar fox <3 they’re super cute and sweet and i love them lots ;u; i also have a russian dwarf hamster named Mama Dragon that i brought home from the pet store where i work because she was too mean to sell, and i love her to bits <3 i won her over with treats and we’re buds now LOL

recently i’ve added a couple of betta fish to my family as well! the first one is named Bubbles, and i brought him home from the pet store because he was so small he couldn’t eat the normal sized betta pellets! I’m thinking now that he was just young, because he’s grown a LOT and is definitely big enough to eat them now xD he’s beautiful and such a sweetheart <3

The other betta is Lotus, and i brought him home because he had some pretty bad fin rot and swim bladder disorder, which caused him to float at the top of the tank and list to the side like he was dead :c within a few weeks, though, I got him swimming normally and now he’s a happy lil guy <3 working on getting his weight back up and his fins grown back out! I love him so much ;u; he’s super pretty, i’ll have to post pics/videos of him and Bubbles sometime <3

That’s everybody so far! If you read all of this, then bless u <3 i love to talk about my animals and i get a little lengthy when i babble about them sometimes :’D peace out, i hope y’all have a great day/night/whatever it is wherever you are!
