Nothing gives me quite so much joy as when people tell me they’ve had their pets spayed or neutered.

I really liked the snake that breaks out of the cage in the beginning of the movie. I saw it in real life, and it was really cool. Really big and fat. The owls are cool as well, but you can’t really pet them.

The reason I want to be able to teleport is that I don’t like waiting around. It’s one of my pet peeves. I also don’t like traveling, because I don’t like sitting on a plane for six hours, doing nothing, essentially wasting time. You know what would be awesome? Bam, I’m in New York.

Only very brave mouse makes nest in cat’s ear.

Learning about factory farms and their horrendous treatment of animals is what made me become vegetarian in the first place. I also support the education of the public on adopting pets from animal shelters or saving homeless animals off the street in lieu of buying them from pet shops.

When I was pregnant with my first child, I was 35 years old, and I was working in a pet shop.

Kittens are wide-eyed, soft and sweet. With needles in their jaws and feet.

Being successful is about professionalism, and chewing gum is unprofessional. Its also a huge pet peeve of mine.

Animals are such agreeable friends – they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms.

I love pigs. I think they’re very cute. I really want a pet pig, but those micro pigs, they don’t stay micro.

I have some road rage inside of me. Traffic, especially in L.A., is a pet peeve of mine.

There is nothing wrong with professional pet owners and private breeders of exotic animals. And I would be the first to fight to take away an animal from an irresponsible owner.

It is one of my pet hates when I see players who have agents who do everything for them. They don’t know how to set up their own bank accounts, they don’t know what they are spending their money on and they can’t make their own decisions.

One of my pet peeves about biblical epics was that the characters’ costumes always looked like they’re just out of the dry cleaners.

I have this pet thing about how global communications are moving so fast now, throwing information at you, making everything available to you, and yet I feel it’s leaving us more and more isolated.

Pet Sematary’ is one of my favorite books of Stephen King and I have a deep love relationship with it.

I had a brief stint as ‘People’s Journalist’ for the West Sussex Gazette; I’d do golden-wedding anniversaries and pet deaths. I was always looking for an angle; it wasn’t great.

It is a good morning exercise for a research scientist to discard a pet hypothesis every day before breakfast. It keeps him young.

I’d cut school and go over to the Lori-Ann Donut Shop and eat doughnuts. I got a job at the pet store near Lechmere, unloading fish tanks. They gave me $10 for unloading a full long-bed truckload. I never broke a fish tank. When I asked for a raise, I got fired.

Pet stores just sell their animals.

Dogs laugh, but they laugh with their tails.

I got a pet monkey called Charlie Chan.

My favorite type of pet has always been a dog. They’re loyal, kind, and offer endless affection. My friend Eric says, ‘The more people I meet, the more I like my dog.’ Funny thought.

There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face.

Millions of animals are euthanized every year because shelters can’t find homes for them. Buying animals from pet stores also tends to support puppy and cat mills, many of which have deplorable conditions for animals, which shouldn’t be tolerated.

I hate when people don’t keep their word or they are late. Tardiness is a big pet peeve of mine.

What counts is not necessarily the size of the dog in the fight – it’s the size of the fight in the dog.

I believe cats to be spirits come to earth. A cat, I am sure, could walk on a cloud without coming through.

I read very one-note. Teacher’s pet, Goody Two-shoes. I’d hate to be annoying. Who wants to see movies with someone annoying in them? But it’s hard for me to paint myself as anything but whatever it is I come across as – which is pretty together.

I was in three academic clubs, a huge book worm and the teacher’s pet. I was kind of an easy target for bullies.

No matter how much cats fight, there always seem to be plenty of kittens.

I’m scared to death of being poor. It’s like a fat girl who loses 500 pounds but is always fat inside. I grew up poor and will always feel poor inside. It’s my pet paranoia.

We have three cats. It’s like having children, but there is no tuition involved.

Once they become AKC registered, the newspapers will become flooded with ads for them. And you’ll see Border collies in pet stores and animal shelters.

My biggest pet peeve is when you go to a fine restaurant, and it’s like a mausoleum inside. Good food should be joyful. There should be laughter and chatter, not people sitting there like they’re in a funeral-parlor waiting room.

It’s difficult to understand why people don’t realize that pets are gifts to mankind.

I brought a Border Collie back home to Vancouver from Wales – where some of my ancestors are from – and needed to challenge him in other ways than just being my pet. So I investigated sheep herding and took a few lessons, and decided I was probably learning more than my dog!

My pet peeve is when people come over to my house, and there are coasters, but they don’t use a coaster.

Most women have jobs that require them to leave the house. A cat is actually a perfect pet. You get the love and companionship of a creature covered in fur, and you don’t have to take it for a walk, and it can feed itself. Less maintenance. Surely any man can appreciate the practicality of this choice.

There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats.

That’s one of my pet peeves. People always want to put something into a category – this one or that one. You know, a great song is a great song.

I consciously learned and performed my race like a teacher’s pet in an advanced placement course on black masculinity.

I’ve teamed up with PetSmart Charities to celebrate the five million homeless pets who’ve found homes through their in-store adoption centers, and to spread the word about how we can work together to save millions more pets’ lives and, ultimately, end pet homelessness.

Dogs are better than human beings because they know but do not tell.

Actually, my dog I think is the only person who consistently loves me all the time.

Scratch a dog and you’ll find a permanent job.

For many people who are so lost in their minds, so much involved in their thought processes, the only moments they have when they are not trapped in that is when they are relating to their animal, their pet.

The smallest feline is a masterpiece.

A lizard is a perfect pet for a model. They only need feeding once a fortnight. And I’m always travelling, so it’s perfect. If I had a dog, it would drop dead of starvation.

I was in New York and I walked into this pet store and came out with a dog.

If the Beastie Boys and the Beach Boys and Pet Shop Boys can stay boys, so can we.

I love pet animals, but I don’t have any.

I fed my yak on my spare Cadbury chocolate 21,0000ft up Everest. It was a blonde, very sweet female yak. I made it my pet after that.

We created a line of pet food called Nutrish that’s made to human standards, and 100 percent of the proceeds go to animal rescue. One of our top-tier donors is the ASPCA, and they help us challenge animal shelters all across the country to get more animals placed in homes.
