Pet Submissions

Made In The Shade
“This is a photo of me and my pet ferret around the time I was three. My aunt decided to surprise my parents and take me to the local PetSmart for a photoshoot. A toddler holding a parasol with a pet ferret, along with unfortunate 90’s attire, makes for one awkward photo.”

Rocky 4
“We found this picture in the attic. I don’t remember the dog, but I definitely remember having a raccoon as a pet for a short period of time.”

No Horse For You
“What my daughter really wanted was a horse. She had to settle for a dog, a bird, and a saddle.”
Rando In The Henhouse
“It was a lovely day in my parents garden. I love their hens, so I wanted a picture of one of them together with my best friend. Little did I know some guy was coming up behind us!”

Fish People
“What was intended to be a mockery of people who take portraits with their pets now makes us mock-worthy.”

Doggy Style
“Our family went to the local portrait studio with our dog, Prudence. My dad, who loved her very much, considered her a member of the family and therefore wanted her to be a part of the photo. When we posed for the picture, Prudence would not stay still so my Dad straddled the bench to keep her still. This photo hung in our house for years, and, the truth is, we were oblivious about its awkwardness until a close friend pointed it out.”

The Bird Is The Word
“This is a photo of myself, my older brother, and our Grandpa, and our two parakeets, Snowy and Max. We drove from Cincinnati to Seattle in 1997, with the parakeets in the backseat with us for 6 days. We stopped in Iowa, in a McDonald’s parking lot to visit with our grandparents before hitting the road again.”
