PETS in QUARANTINE

QSaltLake readers share their times with their furry family members

ALEX HARROW in quarantine with cats: Gotta catch ‘em all? 4/4!

ERIC GRANATO had a birthday party for his cat, MANI. He’s been with him a year and is 3 years old. It got wild for sure.

Becky and Icarus Moss. Icarus is a Blue Crowned Conure, just a small and very talkative parrot.

JEN MELCOMIAN and 11-years-young pit bull mix STELLA. Every time Jen comes home she grabs a shoe I have left out and gallops away and back to me making squeaky grunts. Every. Time. This has been going on since Jen got her 10 years ago.

ALISON S. with LEO, DARLENE P with SCOOTER, BETH S with MOLLY, REIKO with ROUX, and LINDA M with ELLIE MAE, at a dog party in the back yard before social distancing. Leo and Scooter are Aussie Shepherd/heeler mixes, Molly is a Shih Tzu, Roux is a mini Schnauzer, and Ellie Mae is a Plott Hound.

ALISON S with PRINCESS LEIA, a 75-pound chocolate Lab that still enjoys laying on her human's heads.

MAREN NAZERA ERICKSON shares a pant with BUDDY, a cocker spaniel Maren watches.

MICHAEL AARON says it’s SUMAQ’s fault he can’t get out of bed before 11.

WILLIAM SCHWARZ poses with his pet plants

One year ago March 28, DARRELL PETERSON was first in line to pick up this playful bassett collie pup, LOUIS LOU. Happy gotcha day! And then Louie Lou decided a power cord looked yummy. Thanksfully it wasn’t plugged in

VICTOR CASTILLO and his 9-year-old monster, FENDI, an Italian Greyhound.

TONY SHIRLEY and SCOTT HARWELL with KUBO, an Aussie Shepherd mix who loves to sing backup for Scott to John Denver songs.

Technically, JONESY isn’t EDDIE WARFIELD’s pet. She’s his roommate’s. But the roommate says she is also his since he’s lived with her for six years now.
