Graphic designer by day and a custom stationary designer come night (and any other free time she has), Kellie of Two Pooch Paperie started her business when she couldn’t find what she wanted. The business was coined after her two pooches, Molly and Baxter โ the craziest two dogs in Mississippi!

once, someone left the hamster tank open and my hamster got out in the middle of the night. we searched high and low but we couldn’t find her. I was pretty upset since she was my pet. I’d thought she had drowned in the sewage. however, we heard scratching noises and they were coming from behind a bookshelf. we shone a torch in and lo and behold, a pair of beady eyes stared right back. we had to coax her with a carrot to get out (:
Everytime my pug sneezes, she farts. Makes me laugh everytime
The cards are so adorable. Anyway, when I was little, one of my hamsters escaped from its cage, leaped off our balcony (four floors above the ground) and miraculously survived. It looked up at us, almost as if to say goodbye, and ran off into the bushes!
Aww..that little French frog is too cute! Well, my mom’s cat, Bella collects rubber duckies. That’s the ONLY thing she likes to play with. :)~ She has a bunch.
Frodo, my labdoodle always ran in the opposite direction every time he see a ginger cat coming!!!
Oh, I am SUCH a dog person! My puppy niece is the cutest and we’ve even taught her to play toss with us… so we toss her a balloon, tell her who to pass it to, and she’ll bounce it to that person! Such a smartie.
My guinea pigs are a bit special – Winston is missing an eye and Clementine is missing a foot. I took them in from a Vet who was looking for a home for them after their accidents.
Winnie and Clemie’s cage is double level, which means they need to go down a ramp every morning to go downstairs. Every morning Clemie goes to the top of the ramp and waits for Winnie, because his blind side is the open side of the ramp and there is a risk he could fall. Clemie then slowly guides him down every day.
It’s the sweetest thing to watch!
my kitty mischief fell in love with a stuff cat toy when he was little. now he is twice the size of it, but still carries it around in his mouth and when hes playing with it, no one can get near him!
Okay, my cat, Meneertje actually LOVES yoghurt. He never gets any, because I don’t think that’s very good for cats (it gives them indigestion – which isn’t very good for me).
But recently, the Brussels government issued a new rule that all plastic needs to be separate it, so we keep it in a different bin in the kitchen.
Every morning when I open up the kitchen to make breakfast, Meneertje gets in there, takes the empty yoghurt containers and puts them in his basket. I didn’t notice at first (he has an igloo shaped basket), but after a few days I noticed he wouldn’t sleep in his basket anymore, but right in front of it.
Turned out he had stashed about five empty yoghurt containers in his basket and there simply wasn’t any room for him anymore. Hilarious! ๐ He was so proud of his little collection!
I used to have a dog as a child that we took in from the pound. One day we discovered he could sit up totally straight on his hind legs, like a circus dog. I don’t know where he acquired this particular skill, but it was adorable nonetheless. ๐
Im allergic to anything with fur or feathers but my little boy loves animals so we’ve made pictures with colored contact paper of ducks, sheep, dogs, monkeys, etc and stuck them up all over. Its a 2-D zoo!
We used to have a dog, that farted under the sheets (she had to sleep under the sheets because she had no hair)… so every time she farted she would just get up, and leave… yep, she would leave all her smell under the covers for me. Anyway, I still loved her…
i had a pet chick once when i was 6 but as soon as i got her i was scared to death of her. i though she was going to peck my toes out because she kept following me. one day she fell from our two story house and i couldn’t find her. turns out she fell through the manhole cover and into the sewer in the street. the nice old man who lived next to me helped me get her back though. ๐
I had a cat, Kitty Witty, who loved to be picked up under the front arms and held up so she could stretch out the rest of her body. I swear she was about 4 feet long when she’d do that. She would also sit on my lap and put her face right in front of my mouth. I would then open wide and she’d stick her face in as far as she could. I have no idea what that was all about but I loved her for it!
My cat likes salad.
My dog is the wackiest dog in the world – we lovingly describe her as “eternally youthful” (i.e. CRAZY!) She is five, but I am consistently asked hold old my PUPPY is. She once tore apart an entire houseplant and built herself a mountainous pile of dirt in the middle of the living room and sat as king of the pile until we got home. Obviously.
My dog, Eddie, loves to lie with his front legs crossed out in front of him. He has an air of sophistication about him. We call him our perfect little gentleman. He’s also cockeyed and has three extra toes that just sort of dangle. He’s awesome.
My dog likes to be the only animal on his territory, which would be kinda ok if he didn’t think he’s territory is everywhere he steps his foot on:D So this is what happened when he tried to claim his territory where this pretty fellow lives…:D http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/5900/hrabripasuakciji.jpg
Well, out in the garden the other day my boyfriend and I watched an ant for about 20 minutes carrying a crumb of bread (about 4 times the size of its body) from the table, down the table leg to the patio. Once it got down it was trying to find its ant hole when my dog George came along and gobbled it up: ant, bread and all!
It seems he likes ants. When he sits in the grass they crawl all over his paws and he likes to lick them off and eat them. Yuck.
The thank you cards are not yuck though, they are gorgeous and I’d love to win some ๐
When I was little I had a English Bull Dog named Rumpelstiltskin, Rumpy for short. Rumpy ate every button in the house and would get over excited every time the doorbell rang. Our neighbour, Cookie, yes that was her name, came over to show my mom her new gold sandals. Poor Rumpy got so excited that she let loose on Cookie’s feet. My mother was so embarrassed. I thought it was great. Just one of things that made Rumples so lovable.
I’m popping in here to let you all know how much I enjoy reading all these stories! I’m not in the running, but I’ll share mine:
The craziest thing my dog Jeff did was to pull out fur from my other dog, Jojo, until her back was completely hairless. He does it randomly, and we had to stop him by caging him and separating the two. It’s the craziest thing to wake up to a pile of fur and one dog with a hairless back!
My parrot chases feet! People run screaming!
When I was studying in Zagreb, I met a woman who was living on 14th floor in some big building. Her cat fell off from the balcony. The point is – the cat survived! The vet said she only bite off a part of her tounge. Bizarre isn’t it?
my sister ran over her dog’s head, because he was lying under the car asleep…but he’s completely fine!
This happens on a regular basis.. my little hound Archie will come into my room while I am in bed, acting all cute and sniffly, then will sneak off out, when he does this I know he has something. A few seconds later I will look out the window and he will be running round with something in his mouth… and more often than not this is an item of my underwear! Then it becomes a game to him, me chasing in my pjs! It’s like he knows what to do to embarrass me most in front of the neighbours!
