Tibby - a cat.

It drew forth my very first ode.....

I have a cat called Tibby
He is a tabby cat
He eats and eats and eats all day
But never does get fat

(I won no prises)
@SW-User My first poem.

I retitled it from Deer to Stuck for a Rhyme

How lovely is the auburn deer
How daintily she picks her way
In spring she drinks from waters blue
You see, she must, so drink she do.

I did get a prize, because it was third grade.

Miffy. He was a cat, not a rabbit though. My friend killed him.
BalthazarBlake · 61-69, M
@Matt85 I would have killed the friend.

My first pet was a parakeet named Herman.

Years later, my mother confessed that she accidentally killed it by placing the cage on a radiator. (At the time, she told me Herman had gotten out of his cage and flown out a window!)

@DrWatson that poor bird. I hope she felt bad.

@DearAmbellina2113 I am more inclined to say, "My poor mother!" She held onto "parental guilt" for every little thing that went wrong. I think of her as a great mom, and I wish she hadn't been so hard on herself.

@DrWatson then I'm sure she felt bad. 🥺

Snowbun: a white rabbit. I have long forgotten who of the family coined the name.
To answer your actual question, while there were always animals around, MY first pet was a black & white springer spaniel I named Cherokee Girl (for the registration papers) and called her Cherry.

Rocky and Roxie. Two really sweet pitbulls who were my step dad's

Rocky got ran over when I was too young to remember him very well (poor Rocky 😔). Roxie lived to be very old.

Muffin. It was a cat that got out of line and got ran over playing chicken with a tractor wheel. I was very young. As a result I thought for a while that muffins were something like pancakes.

I remember a dog named Katie. She was really old and committed suicide by tractor
My father had raised (English) pointers some and had had his last two when I was born.

A cat named Trixie. We had to give her away after a year, because she wouldn't behave.
Blue Boo. A blue budgie.
Jiggs. A long haired little dog is all I can remember.

WTF with all the comments about killing your pet? 🤔🤨
BalthazarBlake · 61-69, M
@SumKindaMunster Not really animal lovers at heart by the hinted sarcasm in their comments!
