Your pet's favorite activity?

zeitgeist4 · Gucci

Although my dog is a cuddle-bug, she gets so excited when she hears the "W" word (walk). I think she is the happiest when she gets to sniff around the neighborhood and get some exercise.

Kelly · Hermes

Traci does like going for walks, but is shy at the dog park and usually runs away from the dogs trying to play with her so she can stay with me! Her absolute favorite is to just snuggle and have me pet her. She's getting older, which makes her even more of a snuggle-addict, but I'm fine with that! I'm the snuggling queen of the universe, and when she was younger I'd wish she wanted to cuddle instead of always wanting to play.

MissMee · Kate Spade

My dogs' favorite activities are to piss me off. That and be annoying. Or is that the same thing? (only partially joking)

kittenheels · Coach

My kitties like to snuggle with me and watch tv. They also love to chase a laser pointer - but they get tired and need to rest after a couple minutes. And, they love to sleep, because I think that's what they do all day when DH and I are at work. They also like to try to eat my food! I love them so much - they are so tiny and adorable

AllieGurl · Marc Jacobs

hmm Elley (my dog) LOVES the dog park. She makes so many friends and just has a blast! She also loves long walks and car drives (kinda sounds like a personal add....)

My cats are all so different! My oldest cat loves to snuggle UNDER the covers for hours. If were sleeping and she cant get under the blankets she will paw at them until we lift them up for her to crawl under...

Sigh ... I just love my animals!

DH and I just got a good chuckle when I read this!!!!

Whiskey, my dog, loves to chase bubbles! It's like the two birds with one stone thing - it keeps both the dog and the kid happy.

Snickers, a dog, which neither hubby or I claim is so neurotic he doesn't like to do anything. Well, anything other than pace and I'm not kidding.

Turbo, hubby's dog, LOVES to freakin' run away. It makes me seriously insane. We had to put him on a dog-run-leash thing because last time (when he finally came home) he had a note attached to his collar saying "Please keep your dog at home or we will call the SPCA." I do believe last night was the fourth time I threatened to take the damn dog to the pound myself. Obviously I'm not very fond of hubby's dog furious

Exactly what one of my little dumbasses is doing. I have 3 kids to run after and an expanding midline, I don't need this crap! I keep telling everyone, "If he runs away again, I'm not looking for him." And he is in an electric fence, so he's getting shocked everytime he does it. Dumbass...... furious

Haha I know how you feel!

My dog Bo love just cuddling next to us and being pet. (and he is no lap dog, he's 120 pounds! haha) He also like to stay by the window to bark at people walking by.

My puppy Gucci loves anything that involves massive amount of energy. That, and car rides.

My bf's dog, Puppy loves the words 'walk' and 'eat'. We're so mean though, sometimes we'll say them just to see his cute little head tilt back and forth. biggrin

I love all the weird things dogs do! aww

luckylily · Gucci

Mitch, the dog, loves anything that has to do w/ spending time w/ DH or me. His favorite is probably barbequeing on the deck in the sun. He also likes spooning in the bed while watching his favorite show, Deadliest Catch. In my dog fantasy world, he's filming his own documentary show, Deadliest Cats, about his life w/ three cats. I'm a dork.

Mulder cat likes to eat and spends most of his waking time sniffing the kitchen floor for crumbs. He's also a big Maple Leafs fan.

Scully cat likes to sleep in the sun and head butt Mitch in the chest.

Phoebe cat likes to snuggle w/ the other cats or sit in my lap. Actually, he's annoying as hell when he doesn't have someone to snuggle with.

Our cat, Quimby, loves to play with elastic hairbands--the moderately thick black and brown ones from Goody. Our floors are hardwood, which is the perfect material across which we can fling the "rings."

She chases after them, catches them, jumps, blocks them like a goalie, does flips, and launches off our walls while playing with them. Her tail gets all big and poufy too--which tells me she's happy. It's a great bonding experience.

sydney - It's amazing how high cats can jump and how fast they are.

I love watching Quimby play.

My husband always says that Quimy is the athlete in the family! aww

My kitty does the same thing, but then hides them under rugs.

Other kitty likes to give kissies.

Doggers likes to bark in the yard, sneak on the couch to snuggle, and use the most annoying squeaker during the important parts of tv shows. Thank goodness for Tivo.

My cats Mauli likes the same things as well!

-She loves hair ties.
-She also loves any toy made of feathers and fur and goes crazy for them.
-The laser pointer is also a favorite.
-She loves to play in boxes or bags.
-She also loves to run crazy down the hall and jump off the wall numerous times. Cracks me up, it's so funny.
- She's also my little cuddle bug, she loves to snuggle and have smooches on her face. She just purrs and purrs when I do that to her.
-If I'm watching TV in bed, she wants to snuggle under the covers, and if I don't let her under the covers, she just stares at me until I do.
-She also likes to run her paws real fast, over and over again on the mirror or in the corner of the bathtub. I don't know why she does this, but it's funny to watch.
-She's a good watch cat, she growls at every walking by, especially dogs.

Okay, that's enough. She does more crazy stuff, but those are the biggest ones.

He LOVES running around at the dog park.
He likes going to our small local pet supply store. One of the people that work there will usually have their dog with them and they will let him run around and play while I shop.
He loves playing with other dogs in general.
He loves shopping. There is one part of town where they let dogs in all the stores and will usually have treats and water bowls and give him lots of attention.
Fetching
Stealing my slippers and socks every time I leave my closet or bottom drawers open.
Cuddling

Lol! You are not the only ones! I do that, too. I try to stop it, but it's so tempting to see how he just stops what he's doing, perks up his ears, and stares intently. It's so cute.
