Sometimes when i have spilt something on the floor I use my rat to wipe it up. His fur is very fuzzy and this means he is absorbent.
Thanks for this!

IRL, the dogs like to haul the laundry baskets and get the clothes out of the dryer, why, I have not clue but they are always excited for laundry day and when the buzzer goes off on the dryer. They will also fetch things out the pantry for me and the one will get tools as well.

I have to admit my dog has been used to "mop" the floor on occasion but only if it's safe for her to eat!

She also makes for an excellent back warmer until she gets fed up with me moving her into place.
Thanks for this!

My dogs make good footrests.

The kitties make good heating pads in bed.

Random app picker. She just stands on my iPad and opens a random app. Completely dictates my evening.

occasionally she will let me rest my head on her belly!

Alarm clock and scheduler. If I don't feed her or empty her litter box daily she lets me know. Keeps me in a routine.

Style maven. My last cat was black so most of my clothes were dark. My current cat is white. I have to change my wardrobe.

My dog has become a walking dustbin. She eats everything. She even ate a sticky price tag once because it was screwed up on the table. She passed it safely to me relief. Silly animal! She also makes a great hot water bottle. My guinea pig,Tiger Lilly makes great weed remover. She eats dandelions like a child would eat a bag of sweets.

My dad's dog makes a good garbage disposal along with my cat.
We give them whatever we don't eat (Although I don't approve of giving them leftovers).

My cats are good alarm clocks. Nothing like a sharp paw in my face. It does wake you. They go off a few hours before I need to get up though.

Also they kill house plants so they give me a good reason not to have house plants. I hate house plants.

Sometimes my floor isn't fuzzy enough, so my cat fixes that problem.

We all missed one of the biggies! Pets make great hankies. I've cried my eyes out into the fur of countless furbabies.
