Thanks so much for the wonderful pet parade, Mary. I especially enjoyed seeing so many keeping their toys close by. They are all lovely animals; what fun!

This was a truly wonderful way to start my day. What fun it is to see all of the pets. I no longer allow our cats in my sewing room after a couple of nasty incidents so they sit at the door and watch.

Oh Mary, I just love the Pet Parade! What a great idea. These pictures cheer up all your friends in your blog.

Jackpot, Mary… I love your blog but these pictures are priceless….. We do love our pets! You made my day. Keep up the good work..
Susan Boyd in VA
I am absolutely loving looking at all the beautiful pets! I am on a couple of rescue groups on Facebook and most of the pictures are of animals that need homes. The best part of this is that I know all of these animals are very loved and well cared for! I don’t know about submitting a picture with me in it with my pets — the pets look great, but I’m not so sure about me! LOL! My daughter has said she’ll take pictures for me. We’ll see……..

So many wonderful pet photos the last few days, love them all. Thank you Mary, for doing this for all of us. I must admit that the alligator, Jr as a pet was a total surprise.
Gail in Ohio
That cat’s tail by the presser foot made me laugh too!
One of my cats had to be in the sewing room with me – he did learn after a couple of incidents that it was NOT a good idea to lie down behind my rolling chair where I couldn’t see him!

Oh my gosh I loved all of these and agree with all previous comments! The one that really made me laugh is black tail right by presser foot! I can relate as my Boo is right there with me .. lounging on ironing board or hiding on shelf in fabric! Yes the best animals and quilts. Thank you Mary
Patty Brenner
I’m loving the pet parade!!! Thanks to everyone who sent in photos, and thanks Mary for sharing them with us <3

Wow! Those are lucky happy pets! It is fun to see all the special furry family members. Have a great day!🌸
Diane in Maryland
I have loved the Pet Parade so much! What a variety of pets! I laughed at the lady being dwarfed by her huge dog that probably loved being on her lap when he was a puppy! There are a lot of very loved animals! I’m listening to our cat snore right now as she sleeps on this rainy morning all snug and warm in her little bed. Mary, thank you for posting these and to everyone for sending them in.
Diane and the gang
I laughed, too. That is a BIG dog! I love all of the “stichin’ kitties”. FUN parade.
Joy in NW Iowa
Love all the pets! Some make me laugh with their goofy antics and how they lay or look. Their personalities are so special! I must need to visit someone with a dog for a puppy fix!
Kathy Hanson
Amazing all the pets your blog readers have! What fun to see all the pictures! What a good idea you had doing this, such fun to see all the precious family members!
Linda in Michigan
I don’t know which is better, a quilt show, or Pet Parade! If I knew how to send pictures to your email, I’d give a glimpse of our pets. Right now my daughter’s Maine Coon cat is racing through the house because she just got bawled out for harassing the older, deaf cat.
Have a good day, everyone!
Thank you for the pet parade.
