From our typical 4-legged friends to more exotic birds, arachnids and reptiles, show us pictures of your pets. Subject must be someone’s pet; no wild/zoo photos allowed.

Another quality theme brought to you by kestrana!

Does the pet have to be alive? A thought crossed my mind today to use a Pillow-Pet, but if the consensus is no, then I won’t; I actually have something for this anyway.

My take is that the caveat “no wild/zoo photos allowed” implies the kind of pet that is living.
That’s the direction I went anyways.

How about a picture of a pet who has died?

Yeah, my take is that the pet has to be alive at the time of the photo.
Stuffed pretend animals don’t really fit. I guess taxidermy would work but it’s pretty goofy for a pet. 🙂

I want to be on record saying to anyone who has an eternally preserved pet or lovingly created the perfect pet/companion animal/life partner by whatever means they may have chosen, I appreciate and respect your deep understanding of love and loving relationships. U-Man does not speak for everyone. Please don’t kill everyone here because one guy thinks you’re “goofy.” I’m sure you’re very, very serious.

No longer working at a animal hospital has REALLY curtailed my cute animal options for photography.

My question wasn’t very clear. The picture I was thinking of was taken years ago when my dog was alive. I wasn’t sure if they were thinking current pets, I realize it was a somewhat stupid question.

Okay, I’ve got too many darned good pictures of our corgi to pick from, even discounting the shots I’ve used in the past for other contest. Need some weigh in on a couple:

I think this is perfectly fine! I may be submitting one or two of my late kitties from last year.

I do think they need to be living in the picture–no chia-pets, pillow-pets, statues, or the like need apply.

Are feral domestic animals allowed?

Technically, the description says it must actually be someone’s pet. Feral animals are no one’s pets and are at least semi-wild. That said, if you took a picture of a feral cat in your yard or on the sidewalk, who would know if it was truly someone’s pet vs truly feral/wild?
