Those three were my first pets, Prissy was the first kitty I'd ever owned I got her in 1974. She was so very sweet and loving. She had kittens in 1975 and I kept one that looked like her only with short hair, I named him Stanley. I'm still looking for a shot of him.
Those two pups with her are Rebel on the left and her daughter Sandi on the right. Rebel only weighed around 45 lbs but Sandi was at least 55 lbs.
I was as loyal to them as they were to me and I still miss all of them.
I just had to share a little about the first pets I had.
I wish I had pictures of the dogs mom n dad got us but that was way back in the 1960s and most of those negatives were from those old Kodak cartridge cameras they used to have, I'm trying to find an inexpensive service that will transfer that film to DVD.

I wish I had photos of my first pet. It was a beagle my dad named Bogey after Humphrey Bogart, and unfortunately he got run over by a car. I remember as a kid crawling into his doggy bed and crying myself to sleep after he got hit by a car. I will never forget that beagle, but I sure do wish I had old pictures of him to look at!

Oh, that is a shame @moffittjc nothing could be worse than losing memories in that way but at least you didn't lose your life, hopefully the rest of your family is safe as well.

@rebelann I just don't remember us taking any photos of our pets, although I'm sure we did. Or, I'm sure they are in the background of other photos. Unfortunately, I don't have many photos from my childhood because we had a house fire and lost everything in the fire.

I'm trying to find photos of all the pets I've had in my life to put at least one of each in a big frame so I can see them all together. So far, one of them seems to be missing, but my nephew said he might have one. So I'm waiting to see if I can get one from him. They are all my "kids" and I miss them all so much!
