Welcome to Ann-S-Thesia: My Animals

Our Little Buddies

If our house was Gilligan's Island, and Stan and I were the Howells, our pets would be the rest of the crew and passengers on the S.S.Minnow.

But sometimes Natasha and I trade the Ginger/Mrs. Howell roles, and Stan and Vladimir trade the Professor/Mr. Howell roles. I apologize; I was raised on Gilligan's Island. Not literally, of course.

Click on the animal's name below to visit their own homepage.

Natasha
(Ginger) An Angora Tortoiseshell cat, Natasha is the first pet Stan and I had together (if you don't count newts, rats, and lizards) and the first cat Stan ever had. She is also the only long-haired animal we have. Hopefully, we won't make that mistake again. Natasha lives in her own world, and is rather reclusive.

Vladimir
(The Professor) Vladimir, a big grey tabby, was beat up by his older sister, Natasha, when he was a kid, so he turned antisocial toward all the other animals we have gotten since. He typifies the cliche, "Great with humans, bad with other animals." He's very talkative, smart and affectionate toward us.

Hieronymus
(The Skipper) Hieronymus is named after Hieronymus Bosch, a Renaissance Painter from the Netherlands who painted lots of strange creatures in his hellish narratives which often resembled Pug Dogs. He is the first dog I ever had, and what a great dog to start out with. He's so sweet...the only thing rePUGnant about him is his breath. We got him during a really bad time in my life (graduate school) and he helped me get through the tough times.

Persephone
(MaryAnn) Although not a purebred, Persephone has strong Russian Blue characteristics. We got Persephone to keep Hieronymus company during the day when we were at work and school. She is our all-around sweetest pet.

Plato
(Gilligan) Plato the Boston Terrier is our youngest, and most spoiled. He has had more toys than all our animals combined. He's a very naughty dog, too and has the independence of a cat when it comes to training. He is a dog of extremes: when he is bad he is incredibly bad, but when he gets into those sleepy snuggle moods, he's just irresistible.

We all got our 15 minutes of fame in Annie's Gallery! Submit your pet's photo, too!
