After a dismal week of news, these beautiful pets always bring a smile to my face. Thank you Contrarians for sharing these pictures with the rest of us.

Merry, merry, joy, joy, joy! What beautiful happy pets! I have detected a preponderance of kitties, and this makes me happy (dogs usually get all the attention because they are so doggone wonderful). Especially loving the horse pet. One worries quite a bit about horse's lives. They are so big and must take a lot of space, care, time, money. The world needs horses. They are one of earth's most beautiful creatures. I hear that they are gentle giants. For what we have done to their world, they need humans to love them and care for them through their senior years.

Darling pets, every one, and a reminder of how exquisitely loathsome the new mechanical "lifelike" pets being pedaled online really are. Go, Live Pets, we love YOU!

Would love to read more about Lottie the paraplegic cat. Perhaps she can be a Contrarian pet of the week

Keep the tinsel away from the cats.. they can ( and do) eat it and it can be dangerous..

patricia's avatar

do people still use tinsel ?

Potter's avatar

I don't know...I looked it up and apparently 30% of people do for a retro look. WE pulled a long string of it out of our cat's rear years ago- and it could have really hurt him if it was twisted around.. But also cats nibble on things-- greenery etc. So please be aware and of what is poisonous too.
