Social Pet Saturday: The Name Game

Happy weekend everyone! It's that time of the week again - Social Pet Saturday! It's been a fun week, but I'm ready for spring break. My daughter will be home from school all week next week. I guess that means I can sleep in some.

Anyways, on to the fun stuff. Let's see what's been happening in the petosphere this week!

Facebook Furbaby


Last week, I shared a kitten from The Kitty Kanteen Feral Cat & Kitten Rescue on Facebook. Well, lucky me that they asked me to name one of the four kittens. I am so honored to be able to name this precious little baby boy.

After a little brainstorming, my daughter and I came up with the name Casper. (She wanted to name him after a pokemon, but we decided Casper might be better.) Isn't he the cutest little furbaby?! I can't wait to see him grow up. 

Social Networking for Dogs


I was on Twitter when I found out about a pretty cool new social networking site for dogs from @ComeWagAlong. It's called "Pack". I set up a profile for Shiner that you can view here. Check it out! It's pretty cool.

First, I want to share a cool new blog I found recently. Well, I think the author found me first so I of course visited and discovered an awesome new hamster blog! The blog is called "Unexpected Hamsters" and there are some really cute hammies over there. Please be sure to visit and say hello! 

My friend Garth Riley from the blog "The World According to Garth Riley" has been practicing some basketball and he's ready for the court! Check out this awesome video of him shootin' some hoops. He's really good.


Sorry I don't have much to share today... I'll admit I didn't prepare for this post as much as I would have liked to because I was busy dying my hair last night. Totally not pet-related, but because I like it so much I just have to share...

The tips are purple.

Enjoy your weekend everyone!

  4. That video is hysterical. He wants to know why the ball goes all the way through. Look at that purple hair. Was that the plan. Have a great week end.

    1. It was the plan, except it's less purple than I wanted it to be ;)

  5. We can't wait for you to share pictures as Caspar grows. Our lovely blue-eyed boy, Madison, passed away two years ago, and we miss having a white furry friend around. The hair color is interesting. Mom loves purple, but says she's not brave enough to try that look. Purrs and hugs from the kitties at www.thecatonmyhead.com, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette
