How's This for a Festive Bunch?

From Tammy, whose original bichon, Malo, was lost for eight months after Hurricane Wilma. She rescued two while he was gone then had six pups. They look ready to party.

12 Cats of Christmas

Last year we did the 12 Dogs of Christmas. This year the felines got equal time, in Saturday's Herald. I wasn't involved in the project but many kudos to my colleagues who were. The kitties are just adorable and the best news is that some from the Miami-Dade County shelter are already adopted. Way to go!  Click here to see the layout.

Gorgeous Pet Portraits

Check these out. A colleague who knows this artist sent them to me and they're really charming. The artist is Janet Bloch. Click here to see more of her work - not pet-related but very interesting.   

Howl-o-ween Pix

From the delightfully daft Wendy Doscher-Smith. Enjoy.

Max the Surfer!

Now there's a happy dog! Send me your pet pix: pets@miamiherald.com. I'll post 'em.

Snowbunny Pomo!

Our little friend, Pomo, WOOF Patrol mascot, recently rambled back south after the first snows of the season frosted his furry self in Upstate New York. Brrr!

Cats? Minks? Hard to Tell

There are seven of them, tho only six sat still for the picture. Too cute.
