Hi folks, the generosity here is crazy!
as a bit of thank you from my dog, my husband and myself, I would like to giveaway my extra copy of Into the Wild. It's only a reissue but it's a great vinyl and it's near new. All you have to do is tell me about a pet of yours, it can one that you had as a kid or now. Good luck folks and I'll draw this next Monday. 

My dog Henry

Just thought I would add a pic of the vinyl with Jo, Henry's sister.

Speaking of generosity, Lorna
Awesome thing to do of you :thumbup:
Please don't count me in, I have this awesome vinyl already
This is my kitty Werner. I raised him and spent fun times with him, but when I went to study in Finland I gave him to my parents. They fell so much in love with him that I just couldn't take him back. He's leading a very pleasant life at their place now and with 15 years of age and without balls, he is still a wild tiger, chasing birds on the balconyHe was so focused on me that we went for strolls outside and he used to follow me like a dog. I still love my ginger teddy bear a lot
Good luck to all, and again, best of luck for Henry!Please, Pearl Jam, consider a Benaroya Hall vinyl reissue! http://community.pearljam.com/discussion/148993/please-pearl-jam-consider-a-vinyl-benaroya-hall-re-issue0 -

Loulou, your little Henry looks is one handsome little gent!
Our store cat, Goldie (a calico) was a stray ally cat. She came poking around the place about 10 years ago and said, "Hey look, if you'll feed me, I'll stick around and be your mouse police", (and we know The Mouse Police Never Sleeps!) Well, we didn't really need those little "presents" left on the door step and thankfully she's gotten old and lazy enough to let go of that nasty habit. She's never quite gotten over being a brat-cat but I've learned to talk her language. I know she loves me because sometimes she'll hold my head with both sets of front claws and grab my scalp with her teeth without breaking the skin. Such affection!"It's a sad and beautiful world"-Roberto Benigni0 -
What a great giveaway and the timing seems putting. Our cat Sassy who is almost 19 is going to see the vet this week to be put down. As much as we would love to keep her forever she is deaf, blind and appears to be in a lot of pain. If I win this i'll spin it in her honor, the grumpiest little lion of them allEdmonton 93, Vancouver 05, Vancouver 09, Edmonton 11, Vancouver 110

Just amazing what happens here...So glad to see how many people are helping out... :thumbup:
The Jamily is a true group of friends who spread humanity and the love for pets is also one of them...Great!
My dog Lupke is an active dog even when she has reach the age of 17 already,She was the dog of my former girlfriend Maaike and after breaking up with eachother she is living with my parants now,cause Maaike is living in an institution cause she has Borderline syndrom and cant have pets and i work around the clock.
She is a wonderfull and happy dog and still playes a lot,she was recently sick,but after a visit to the vet and medication she jumps around the house again...
Maaike is still my best buddie in life after this relation and i am so thankfull for that
We both share our love for Pearl jam and what they stand for and in June we both rock our socks off at the Amsterdam gigs togheter with visitors from the Usa,Australia and New Sealand...That gonna be a great summertime here...
Thanx for the change to win this awesome black circles..
Lots of love and hugs to cute little Henry...Be well soon my four legged friend...Pearl Jam 4 live

I've had a lot of pets, and as much as I'd like to talk about them all am sure would bore you all to tears.
When I was born my parents got a couple of part doberman puppies, Bric and Brac. Bric was an amazing dog that would often play babysitter to me and my siblings, but the best story is one my dad tells about how he was driving and heard a dog crying in the back seat, I was very young and sitting between the two dobermans, chewing on Brics' ear. I was obviously hurting her (I was only a toddler if that) but she never growled or snapped, just whimpered. Dobermans are only supposed to live to be about 7 but these two went on to 14, Bric seemed so healthy when her sister died but soon after just shut down, we've always thought that she just gave up/died of a broken heart. Deciding to put her down when I was only 14 was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!0 -
I love reading all these stories guys, lando I'm sorry about your cat. Sounds like she is well loved, if Henry wasn't fit to recover I would have done the same but the vet seems to think he's in well health apart from this problem. Big hugs to you and your family this week.“ "Thank you Palestrina. It’s a wonderful evening, it’s great to be here and I wanna dedicate you a super sexy song."

Hey dear Lorna! :wave: How are you? Another great giveaway from an awesome lady!
Many thanks for doing this!
I don't own a pet. I used to have little turtles as pets but unfortunately they died many years ago. Before I was born, my family had canaries. My oldest brother used to have a male cat (Hercules) - lost or dead, we'll never know - a squirrel (dead from a disease a decade ago) and another black male cat (Pumbaa)
- now stays with his girlfriend parents and he's fat as hell. He can't even chase a bird or a mouse
. Now he and his girlfriend have a female dog called Tonia. She was a stray dog before they took her home. Last year, she gave birth to ten cute puppies all safe and sound. They gave them all away because of space and responsibilities. But, they kept that beautiful brown dog, Tonia. I love her so! :P So, does that count? Can I participate to this beautiful contest?
P.S: Good luck to Henry and many cuddles from me!Athens 2006 / Milton Keynes 2014 / London 1&2 2022 / Seattle 1&2 2024 / Dublin 2024 / Manchester 2024 / New Orleans 20250 -
have the best cat and fish in the world. Cat is a dumpster cat we rescued 5 years ago, all black, loves to be around people and sit on laps. My fish is a 6 year old gold fish in a 40 gal tank. Looks very strange, but likes to be a only fish (I also don't want to mess up the water, he's 6 years old and going strong).
about to apopt a dog, went and visited one for a hour over the weekend, it's a lab/shepard resucue from a high kill shelter. here is a link to his picture, his name (on petfinder) is teddy http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/21909555
Thanks for the chance, would love to own this.0 -
I have the most wonderful dog in the world. Her name is Molly and she is clever, funny, loving - well just fantastic at everything!
Here she is with my hubby;<a href="http://s952.photobucket.com/albums/ae8/catkinson_2009/?action=view¤t=domo.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i952.photobucket.com/albums/ae8/catkinson_2009/domo.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>0 -

Alrighty Lorna...I will tell you about my kitty Trouble.
When I worked at the clinic, a construction worker brought in a box of 3 kittens, said they hadn't seen the mother for 3-4 days, and was worried about them. They hadn't opened their eyes yet (so younger than 10 days). One girl took in all 3 of the kittens, and when I came back from vacation, I volunteered to help her out and took one in. By the time I took in one of the kittens, they had opened their lovely blue eyes. I was committed...feeding time is every 2 hours 24/7.
He was the runt, and not expected to make it. Kept climbing out of the box and wandering away from his brother and sister. He could hardly walk properly because his belly was so full of worms-we had to wait until they were 6 weeks old to de-worm. Finally he made it to 7 weeks, and the vet said he would make it.
My original intention was to place him in a home when he was 8 weeks old...well, when you wake up in the middle of the night, feed the little guy, he looks up at you with those big round eyes, so excited to be fed...I just couldn't give him away.
When he was 10 months old, he wandered away from home...having too much fun in the sun. He lost his way home...I put up posters, checked the shelters for a month. He was gone...I was sad. The day I finally accepted that he wasn't ever going to come home, guess who was sitting at the front door? Trouble.
He's still with me today, fat (20 some pounds) and happy. He doesn't wander too far from the house now. Also thinks he's a dog, following me all over the house, and if he's napping somewhere and I call his name...he comes running (ok, he can't run fast so he waddles).
(BTW-last I heard, his brother and sister are bigger than him...so he's still 'the runt')
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

so similar to mine with my cat. 3 left in the vet after a man brought a whole bunch in and I was the sucker that agreed to take the last one home to 'keep him company until he found a home'. 4 years later!

This is Jedi:
She's a wonderful companion. Her favorite gift (Christmas, birthday, or whatever) is a brand new sheet of tissue paper. She keeps me company while I read, but does sometimes get jealous when I spend a little too much time on a certain board.
Jedi enjoys naps in the sunshine, watching nature from the window, dancing, and stepping on anything that crinkles.0 -
