Pet Name: McKenzy

Pet Nicknames: Kenzy, brat dog, Kenzy girl

Age: 5

Kenzy's Likes:
Loves, loves LOVES to play fetch. Kenzy also enjoys performing tricks so she can guilt us into giving her treats, and she adores going for car rides so she can catch some wind and meet new friends! She also loves her cat friend Phat Boi. They are best buds.

Kenzy's Dislikes:
Water. Absolutely hates the stuff. Baths??? The devil. Do not mention the b word or she will instantly get upset. She also really hates when the humans work because that means we can't give her all the attention she so obviously deserves.

How would you describe Kenzy's pawsonality?
Super energetic and playful. She always wants to play and seems to have an inexhaustible resource of energy that I wish I could tap into. She's also very smart and mischievous and can often be found getting her nose into things that I never in a million years thought she could have figured out, and she's also very talkative. She likes to sass and talk back to me whenever we disagree about whether or not it's time to go outside.

Why I love Kenzy:
She is so sweet and clever. If I'm having a bad day, she'll always come and sit a toy on my lap and just lean against me like she's giving me a hug, because toys make her happy so they must make human happy too, right??? Absolutely the most patient and tolerant dog I've ever had. She's never shown any aggression towards another creature and she's fantastic around kids. She's just a super goofy, adorable, and loving ray of sunshine that seems to always cut through whatever gloom is happening in my life.

A Random Fact/Anecdote about Kenzy:
Her best friend is a cat that we rescued and she helped to bring out of his shell. My cat was abused before we got him, but he'd grown up with dogs so he was more comfortable around Kenzy than our other cats, and she was so sweet and patient with him while she became his friend and helped him to adjust to life with us. I often find them sitting on the bed together or looking out the window, and he's always coming over to groom her. They're truly the best of friends and he is a completely different cat than when we found him, and it's all thanks to Kenzy being the wonderful girl that she is.

Pet Name: Onyx

Pet Nicknames: The Pudgy Baby, Owl, Mr. Stubby Tail, Monkey-See Monkey-Do

Age: 1 year old

Onyx's Likes:
Playing with his brother and litter mate Midnight, snuggling, imitating the other cats in the house

Onyx's Dislikes:
People messing with his short tail

How would you describe Onyx's pawsonality?:
He's very playful and will race around the house at top speed for several minutes before getting tired out and flopping onto the ground or going over and rubbing up against someone. He also tends to go up to his brother if he sits there and is crying wanting to make sure that he is okay or something like that.

Why I love Onyx:
He talks with his tail. Cats aren't so much like dogs where they don't tend to wag their tail or you can easily tell if they are happy or something, but Onyx is very different where he will flip his tail around and clearly talks more with it then any other cat I have seen. Not sure if it is because he has a sort of short and stubby tail or not, but it is great.

A Random Fact/Anecdote about Onyx:
He has to be the silliest little thing ever. In the house we have 6 cats, and Onyx is very much the baby, but he works to imitate the other cats to the point where if he sees one of them yelling for food and putting their paws on a drawer handle to get closer to the food, he does the exact same thing. One time another cat was blobbed out on the floor (she's very much a butterball of a cat) and Onyx went to lay down next to her and imitated exactly what she was doing, he was in the same position next to her, looked over at her again, and then proceeded to puff up his stomach so he blobbed out in the exact same way.

Pet Name: Peep the Sheep

Pet Nicknames: The Stomach on Legs

Age: 7 years

Peep's Likes:
Food, especially dried apricots; hanging out with animals of other species, in particular cows and chickens (although she needs to work on her stealth skills in order to get closer to her bird friends); head butting things, mainly her long suffering sister.

Peep's Dislikes:
Being put on her back; snow; dogs; small loud children.

How would you describe peep's pawsonality?
She's a right greedy guts that likes to think she's the boss of her little herd, but really I'm petty sure the other sheep are smarter than her and just play along with her crap. She's very friendly with humans (apart from shrieking kids), but is completely unconcerned about things which don't involve other animals or being fed. Being fed is a very important part of Peep's day, if you forget she will scream at you. If you oversleep, she will scream at you. If she's just hungry for some reason, she will scream at you. She likes to throw her weight around and can sometimes be a bit of a bully, except for when she gets shorn and the other sheep realise she's not as big as she looks and get their revenge.

Why I love Peep:
She's a big idiot. A very lovable big idiot.

A Random Fact/Anecdote about Peep:
Peep and her sister (Bo) are both technically French because they are Ouessants, a rare primitive short tail sheep breed from an island off the coast of Brittany. Ouessants are the smallest naturally occurring breed of sheep in the world, so they only come up to about my knees. Oh, and they live in a graveyard (gotta keep that grass trimmed somehow right?).

@Stormflyx Can I throw all six of my points to McKenzy because A. Dog and B. Border Collie means no C. Contest :P?

<Snipped quote by Lord Wraith>

To give 6 points to one entry goes against the spirit of the vote — but you can just give 3 to the best one! I do encourage a full vote though :)
