Learning from wolves to interact with pet dogs makes about as much sense as, ‘I want to improve my parenting – let’s see how the chimps do it!’
When I was 16… I worked in a pet store. And they fired me because… they had three snakes in there, and one day I braided them.

Just watching my cats can make me happy.
To this day I don’t ever remember seeing a pet inside Moscow, I never saw anyone carrying a dog, or leading a dog. Err I finally saw a, a pet some years later in Kiev, so I thought that life must have been, different.
A lover tries to stand in well with the pet dog of the house.
Owners lavish love on their pets, which is why so many go from non-aggressive pups to being out of control when they’re older. People just don’t realise their dog must respect them as leader of the pack.

Growing up, I had an insane crush on Neil Tennant of the Pet Shop Boys.
Even in a culture where people are well meaning, there are sometimes ‘microaggressions.’ People who will just cut you off. You’ll be talking, and someone will interrupt you. That’s become a big pet peeve of mine.
Cats are very independent animals. They’re very sexy, if you want. Dogs are different. They’re familiar. They’re obedient. You call a cat, you go, ‘Cat, come here.’ He doesn’t come to you unless you have something in your hand that he thinks might be food. They’re very free animals, and I like that.
I wish people would realize that animals are totally dependent on us, helpless, like children, a trust that is put upon us.

I don’t micromanage, but I do care deeply about every product we make. Every one goes through me, and I try most of our products before they go to market, including our John Paul Pet flea and tick shampoo. If I don’t like it, it’s not coming out.
Cats are connoisseurs of comfort.
It’s true, you can never eat a pet you name. And anyway, it would be like a ventriloquist eating his dummy.
Humans should always exercise and watch what they eat. So with your pet, make sure they get enough exercise, make sure they’re getting fed at the same time every day and getting the nutrition they need. And make sure they get a lot of love and attention you both need. That’s why you have them!
I would love to own a dog, but somehow a dog is just not me. I’ve always had the distinct impression that they are less like a pet and more like another child.
Vinyl is the real deal. I’ve always felt like, until you buy the vinyl record, you don’t really own the album. And it’s not just me or a little pet thing or some kind of retro romantic thing from the past. It is still alive.
I do have the most adorable little Chihuahua mix. I adopted him about 3 1/2 years ago from Much Love pet adoption, and he has been the love of my life ever since. His name is Beau, or as my sister and I like to call him ‘ mushy mush’ because he truly is just a pile of loving mush that just melts in your arms.
I would say I don’t like people who are really into themselves or are very materialistic. Just always talking themselves up. Not being real is the pet peeve. Be true to yourself.

Pets have more love and compassion in them than most humans.

Women are often scrutinized when they have pets that men wouldn’t have. We are immediately faulted for having the wrong kind of pet rather than anyone first think, ‘Wow, she rescued an animal that would have been otherwise killed and gave them a great home – how sweet!’
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.

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.

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.
