Your Pets

All of my roses are pretty good - I just don't have a lot of photos of them here at the office.

You need (free!) Teamviewer.com with which you can remotely operate your home PC (or Mac) from your work PC (or Mac), or vice versa. Or either from an internet device (like a laptop, netbook, tablet, or smartphone) when you're on the road.

Then you could e.g. access all your rose pictures (or whatever is on the remote machine) all the time, and send them to yourself (on the other machine) or to others when you want to. Or post them here.

Here's a better one of the pup, anyway - he doesn't like me being on the computer any more than Gordan does.

My dog Harley. He got old and died a couple of years ago. Poor puppy.



One of my sister's dog Hunter. This puppy is a menace. Can't wait for him to calm down.



Post Card Grace and Papi when he was just a puppy.



Memnoch, my old buddy. She died years ago.

I don't have pictures of my fishes. They were Sebastian and Cecil. I had to leave them in Washington when I moved home because I couldn't take them on the plane. My friend Christa took them in.

That last one looks like an African Rock Python, Shell. Was it?
Long ago I had a Reticulated Python, a red-tailed Boa Constrictor, a Royal Python, and a few local snakes, some of which I caught myself. When the Reticulated Python got too big (7 feet) for comfort I donated it to the national zoo where I 'visited it' occasionally, and it lived there for another 25 years, and grew to over 16 feet!

She was a ball python of sorts. My roommate and I rescued her from some dipshit that didn't even know how to feed her properly. We're not entirely sure she was thoroughly ball python, but she looked the part.

Holy shit! That's awesome. I've thought of getting another, but I don't want one that will require a room for a tank. Just a little guy will do. However, I think my next pet will be a turtle.

Did you feed her live prey (mice and rats) or did you force-feed her (dead prey of course, a.k.a. meat)?

[Shell B]

I had to force feed her. She was sick when we got her. She wouldn't eat anything. We force fed her pinkies.

[Rokcet Scientist]

She wouldn't eat anything.

That can be very confusing because big snakes (3 feet or more) can go up to 12 months without eating! It doesn't necessarily mean they are sick, starving, or dying. They just have a very slow metabolism.
