Two rescued cats - littermates who have kept us entertained for 12 years. Seen in my avatar- the calico is Diana and the tabby stripe is Hercules.

I have 2 short-hair cats who are geriatric, 18 & 14 yrs old. The 18 year old has very few teeth and eats canned tuna.

I have 3-2yr old long-hair littermates that were all born with the same birth defect of their eyes. 3rd eyelid on all 3 have been removed because it would not retract. Lucy had to have one eye removed because of constant infection. Lucky not only has the eye problem but also a level 2 heart murmur and some brain stem injuries that has lead to his walking funny and his tail curling up like a skunk tail, lol. Luna also has an autoimmune problem that is refered to a "Rat Rot". She developes ulcers in her mouth and on her lips.

I have an Aussie Shep/Lab cross who is deaf and 90% blind. It's a result of bad breeding. You would be amazed at how well she has adapted. Runs at warp speed across the yard chasing my other dog.

Last but not least is Katie who is a deaf Aussie CattleDog. She was one day short of being destroyed when we rescued her. Katie is my Medical Alert/Responce Service Dog. She tells me when something I am allergic to is near.

Don't pass up the special ones, you'll never know what a joy they can be

As a special education teacher by training, I applaud you for taking on the challenges of pets with special needs. God bless you and your furry friends.

I have 2.

My lab/bassett mixed, around 13 years old we think. She was adopted from a shelt many years ago. She just lays around. She has arthritis. But a loving dog.

Daisy, my poodle. 5 years old. Loves to sit in laps a love to snuggle under the blankets at night when she is cold.

We are going to be getting my son a kitten/cat soon. Will post pictures when we do!

We have one spoiled sweet greyhound that we adopted.
Came off the track at 2 1/2. He now is 9 years old and starting to get grey faced. It took us almost 9 mo. for him to finally look at us and start to trust us. He now is like velcro.
