Albert Einstein: A laid back kitty who is named both after his
human's beloved Grandfather, Albert, as well as after the famous
Albert Einstein because of his bushy eyebrows. Albert is an amazing
14 1/2 lb cat with an 18 inch long tail! And, we think he has
a lovely "cattitude."
Mr. Einstein is a special cat, loved by his humans
and we think he will make a lovely rubber stamp.

Diva Belle: A 4 month old "apple head" chihuahua. Her human reports
that Diva Belle is a complete joy to be around and loves to give
kisses. She thrives on attention and spends her days chasing her
brothers and sister (cats and ferret) around the house and her
nights cuddling with them. She has a larger than life personality
and does not let her size inhibit her in any way. She truly is
a blessing and puts a smile on her human's face everyday.

Fritz: Adopted at 4 months old, Fritz is absolutely adored by
his humans. They tell us that he has helped bring them a new outlook
on a breed with an underserved bad reputation. Fritz loves everyone
and everything! He is the sweetest ever! His name says it all...F-R-I-T-Z...
F-Four-legged! R-Ridiculously cute! I-Irresistible! T-Treats anyone?!?
Z-Zillions of kisses!
We agree. And, we think Fritz will make a great
rubber stamps!

Gizmo: A lovely Keeshond dog with a very endearing hobby. He likes
to get dressed up for the holidays. Here he is, posed with his
Valentine's day bounty - all received, I'm sure because his human
loves and adores him so much. She tells us that Gizmo has brought
her love, joy, and companionship over the years and that she feels
indebted to him for all she has received. It was a lovely sentiment
and Gizmo will make a lovely rubber stamps.

Kajabbi: Son of Jabba The Het, Kajabbi's personality shines through
as vibrant as his color. His human brags about him, "to those
who say reptiles never tame, just tolerate, I say you never met
Kajabbi. What an awesome dragon!" And, we agree. This little
fellow exudes loads of personality and we found him quite beautiful
as well.
|

Noah: A blue merle Australian Shepherd puppy who just celebrated
his first year, Noah is described by his loving human as "our
little love bug." Noah is always ready to greet his family
with lots of kisses and body wiggles and big blue eyes reflect
all the love and joy in his heart.
His human also exclaims that Noah is "all
boy and is constantly performing - jumping, spinning, running
through the house with a toy. You could search the world over
and never find a sweeter boy than our little man Noah." What
a lucky boy Noah is, to be so adored!
|

Oggie Doggie: A 4 year old Piebald Daschund, Oggie Doggie was
adopted this past January from a rescue in Vancouver Washington.
Since then, Oggie has been an absolute joy and his human's brag
that they are very lucky to have him as part of their family.
His favourite activities include walks, car rides, chasing after
his toys and most of all, snuggling under a blanket with Mom.
|

Pribo: This beautiful Arabian horse is all dressed up for the
holidays and is sure to spread good cheer to all in his little
red Santa hat. His adoring human tells us that Pribo is a friendly
horse who will allow children to reach out and pet his nose as
he stands very nicely. He has been in the Rose Bowl Parade and
has been a long-time friend and companion to his adoring family.
He also wears a wreath on his back!
|

Scampy: Described by his humans as a relaxed, friendly, and easy-going
Cock-a-poo, Scampy does get excited when he first catches sight
of his humans as they arrive home, whereupon he dashes outside
and runs in joyful circles across the porch and around the garden.
He also loves to be petted, played with, and to hear that beloved
question,"Do you want your breakfast?!" His little button nose,
floppy ears, and scintillating eyes make him absolutely adorable!
And, we believe Scampy will make an adorable rubber stamp!
|
Yoshiko: An incredibly buoyant hedgehog who calmly combines
staying clean with the rigors of aquatic ballet, Yoshiko
is clearly puzzled at why she is being photographed in
the bath. Her other talents are too numerous to list.
But, if you are offering, she really loves being petted
and cuddled.
|

Skunk: A very cute, striped ferret with the amazing ability
to mimic the proverbial three monkeys of the Koshin faith.
The three monkeys include Mizaru, covering his eyes, who
sees no evil; Kikazaru, covering his ears, who hears no
evil; and Iwazaru, covering his mouth, who speaks no evil.
We do not know how Skunk came to learn this amazing talent,
but his human modestly claims that Skunk was just washing
his face while she took these photos.
|
|
Cashmere: A beautiful ragdoll cat, is described by his human
as being "a very big boy!" He meows at the bathroom
faucet and his devoted servants come running to be sure this
beautiful boy has plenty to drink. He likes to be brushed
and have his teeth brushed too. If you time it right, you
can catch the beautiful Cashmere playing hide and seek with
his humans at home.

Our 2009 Pet Lover's Star Search
Honorable Mention
(although they will not be made into rubber stamps,
these are just a few of the pets whose most precious of faces made
our choice so difficult this year - seriously, I say this every
year and it is always true: it was painful that we couldn't choose
them all!), in no particular order.
