Our cat Daisybelle keeps watch while I post to the RRF. We think she may be a Maine Coon mix. She certainly has that shape mug.

Been having trouble with computers and cameras of late but here's my best mate (apart from family and many others).

I have some great pics of him when he was a young 'un and when I get my desktop back tomorrow I'll post a few.

Meet Ernie:
He has a strange fixation with water at the moment. I put 1/2" or so in the bottom of his bowl and he tips it over with one paw and tries to catch it with the other. If he took drugs or drank alcohol I'd understand, but.........................

Bonnie!

Besides the squirrels this is one of my pets/companions that I have now. It lives under my shed. Have'nt named it yet but am open to suggestions.

I suggest "Jingle_Jangle"...or maybe just "Jangles"

Do these count as pets? (The fish are all hiding- they're camera shy.)

I was thinking maybe if the critter is male, name him Rafe or Ralph if you prefer

He's cute! What kind of critter is that?

I'd say it looks definitely like a Fred!

Fred's definitely a good name for anyone who lives under a shed...

If you lived in Canada, I'd guess that might be a skinny marmot...but in Missouri: a woodchuck, maybe?

I had a cat named Fred a few years ago.... pure white and very sweet. He became very diabetic and I kept him going with 2 insulin shots a day for 2 years, but eventually he had to be put down.

That photo is begging for some photoshop action. I'm thinking blues harp or maybe a kazoo...

I think a good name would be "Gordo" (nickname of astronaut Gordon Cooper) or perhaps "Gorgo" or you can always be uncreative and name him "Rocky"

Groundhog, woodchuck, or whistle-pig whichever you prefer

Of all the suggestions so far I think I like Fred the best.
