TT #3: pets

Thirteen beloved pets Mickey, the cat I had home with my parents. My first cat! Lapje, the cat I left at home when Ron and I were moving out. Later we took her in with our other cats. Garfield, the first cat we got from the pet shelter. He sold himself by playing with a ping-pong ball. He was a mother to all of the other cats and he was the boss. Cleo, we took her from the pet shelter at the same time we got Garfield. She was a full breed cat, taken to the shelter because she had the wrong eye colour... She was a lady. Mickey, the big black cat. Garfield was the boss, but Mickey was his right hand. He was big, but not fat. Snoopy, the little white lady. She has always been tiny. Snoetje, a cat we looked after for a friend of mine. She couldn't have it, so we took her in until we found a new home for her with my mother's neighbours. Poemel, the only cat still alive right now. First my brother took her in, but we got her back. She is getting old and doesn't always know what she's doing. She is still living upstairs. Ukkie, the youngest cat who passed on way too early... Heathcliff, the big red cat. He loved to play and cuddle, sleeping in every lap he could find. Shadow, our Bernese Mountain dog (Berner Sennen). Our first dog! We got him from the pet shelter in Gouda. He was well-bred, kind-hearted and loved by everyone. Foofur, our little dog (half Jack Russell, half Welsh Corgi). I fell in love with him the second he got into the pet shelter. He is fond of people and they love him! Boris, our big black dog (half Newfoundlander, quarter Bernese Mountain, quarter St. Bernard). His old boss went to Africa and didn't take him.
