Do you have pets?
Let me rephrase that, do you NEED pets?
Some people do. Some people swear their pets save them. I think that can be true.
I do not have a pet, per se, but I kind of have a puppy.
Ok, fine. I have a little boy and sometimes the terms are synonymous. People ask me if we will get a pet. It’s a thing folks expect once you’ve made some babies. Always the what next.
“I’d like to get a cat,” I say. “But Chaucer would most likely kill it on accident. Or on purpose.”
“How about a puppy?” they suggest.
“I already have one. His name is Chaucer.”
Why My Son Is My Puppy:
1.) He crawls on everything.
2.) He hides in strange places. Strange, but obvious places.
3.) He jumps from everything.
4.) He requires a leash in all public settings.
5.) His paws are ALWAYS muddy.
6.) He finds a way to make a mess out of cleaning supplies.
7.) He just wants to learn new tricks.
8.) His kisses are messy.
9.) He cuddles like a champ.
10.) He really prefers his doghouse over anything.
Whadya think? Do you have a puppy? I mean a little boy? I mean…either?
Linking up today with Mama Kat!
So sweet! I remember those “puppy” days!!
I have a cat. I have a dog… I have a son… (waiting for his dog like qualities to show in the future) and I have a husband (that counts for an animal too, right?)
Haha, how cute! I am one of those people who needs pets. I have grown up with pets in my house, and it feels empty without them. We currently have a dog, a cat, and 4 chickens. I think you should add something to your list though! Does he eat food off the floor? My little one sure does.. It’s a race between the dog and the child.
And, he’s ridiculously cute and makes you think you want a puppy even though you swore you were off puppies.
Haha! Hey, I know! Just have another baby ????
Great post! You almost make me want this baby to be a boy… almost. Stopping by from Mama Kat’s.
My mom used to call us all puppies. In high school I thought it was wildly funny to ask her what that meant we should call her.
What a cute spin! I think my boy is a puppy too! All of the above apply!
How cute! My daughter is my pet too! Some days I am seriously convinced that I gave birth to a cat or a dog depending on her choice that day. It is scary how well she does at imitating a cat grooming itself!
Adorable! The pics made it even more fun to read. My youngest could fit this description, too!
hahaha, the title alone on Mama Kat’s made me want to check out what this post was all about! Very adorable ????
Oh dang! Yes! My son will be 10 tomorrow and he’s a gangly skinny kid now. But when he was Chaucer’s age, he was my puppy. So sweet!
You are so right. Your little pet seems a handful and with multiple capabilities. You don’t seem to need another pet. ????
I love your descriptions accompanied by the pictures!
Thank you! Yes, hopefully I remember this when for some reason I start wanting to add to our family with fur ????
