Would Your Dogs Sing Along?

PetSugar — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 08:00:07 -0700

Although my tolerance for too much barking is pretty low (I do live in an apartment, you know - too much noise and my neighbors would be knocking on my door), I could watch videos of "singing" dogs all day long. A clip of one of my favorites is below: a Frenchie that sings along with the harmonica! I'm not much of a singer myself, so I gotta give credit where credit is due, this little guy can really carry a tune . . . or would it be carry a bark? Either way, check out the adorable video and then share your singing dog stories in the comments!

This cute cat's gotten herself into one sticky situation with a piece of tape. Favorite DIY toy of kitties worldwide, see what happens when an adhesive works all too well. After all, when it's cat vs. tape, who really wins? You do when you check out the video below.

In This Town, Everyone Gets a Ride!

Seriously, you find the darnedest things walking down the street these days! Just today as he was wandering around the city, OnSugar user Kjell found this interesting sight: the three layer animal cake. Not only is kitty riding the doggie as he walks down the street, but there is a rat hitching a ride on top of this incredible balancing cat!

I've never been lucky enough to catch these three around town, but I'm certainly keeping my eye out from now on to find out how the heck their owner got them to do that! It just goes to show you that dogs, cats, and even rats can get along just fine - don't believe the myths.

This compilation from Planet's Funniest Animals seemed especially appropriate for today's holiday. Whether it's a dog being totally silly or totally natural, these clips gave me a good giggle. Happy April Fool's Day!

This Dog Plays D!

Well, March Madness is officially here and, in the spirit of things, I've looked for the best baller I could find to tip off the competition. Of course, when I saw a smooshy Frenchie displaying such skills on the "court," I knew I had my pick. Clearly basketball's not just for the likes of Air Bud – it seems like pups of all kinds enjoy chasing a bouncy ball of any size!

Feline's Humorous Transformation Into Furball Alarm Clock

PetSugar — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 08:00:15 -0700

Waaaaaaake up! This silly kitty attempts a rather untraditional method to wake up his owner – while jumping on the head is a strategy many cats employ, this creative guy uses even more drastic measures.

Thanks to tawvry for sending me this clip – she may only have a pup in her furry family, but that doesn't stop Io from waking them up with what they call a "dramatic yawn." How do your pets wake you up?

Pug Wants Yummy, Yummy Yummies!

This dog surely knows what he wants . . . after some coaching, that is. I think he's asking for yummy, yummy, yummies – listen in and decide for yourself.

If you have pets that sound like they're talking when they bark or meow, share what you think they say in your comments below!

If Your Dog Wasn't a Dog, He'd Be a...

PetSugar — Fri, 22 Feb 2008 08:00:32 -0800

When I brought my puppy home on the Metro North, a man next to me on the train suggested I name him "Cat." Little (yet unnamed) North pawed and batted at the crate doors like a little kitty . . . and, to this day, he has mastered the sneak-up-and-pounce technique on his squeakers. Yeah, so the toys aren't alive or moving – perhaps he's not the brightest cat in the bunch – but I find him often catlike nonetheless.

Awwww. After watching this video of the adorable Lily, all I could recall were her rabbit like leaps and bounds. She hop hopped her way through the snowbanks, and I think she looked like a little bunny-in-training. Whether you share your home with a dog or a cat, which animal do you think your pet acts like the most?

Kali the Dog Will Get Up When She's Ready...

And not a moment sooner. Either this diva dog is really lazy or really playful, but there's one ~~tell-tale~~ tell-tail sign that she's actually alive and doing just fine.
