Kittens are wide-eyed, soft and sweet. With needles in their jaws and feet.

To me, a cat is an easy pet, they don't need any spoiling or looking after.

I didn't get a lot of attention from my dad when I was young. That's a big part of it for girls. Because your dad is the first love of your life. If he doesn't put you on his lap and give you a pet, you do end up not really liking yourself that much.

We created a line of pet food called Nutrish that's made to human standards, and 100 percent of the proceeds go to animal rescue. One of our top-tier donors is the ASPCA, and they help us challenge animal shelters all across the country to get more animals placed in homes.

Laziness in my biggest pet peeve of all time. Get up, make a plan, do the work, and love yourself, people!

When I was a kid, I was obsessed with different planets in the solar system, and I used to create, for every single planet, a different alien race with a certain kind of pet, a certain kind of house, a certain kind of water system, and everything.

A kitten is chiefly remarkable for rushing about like mad at nothing whatever, and generally stopping before it gets there.

Cats are very independent animals. They're very sexy, if you want. Dogs are different. They're familiar. They're obedient. You call a cat, you go, 'Cat, come here.'

If you have time to get your pet rabbit its own Instagram account, you have time to at least tweet about something important.

We are deeply sorry for the loss of anything - from your luggage to, of course, a loved pet.

I spent a lot of time in the White House in the public areas where reporters are allowed to go, but I spoke to people about the private quarters as well.

I can't imagine God not allowing my dog into heaven.

It doesn't work if the bad guys kill his mother's uncle's friend's neighbor's pet dog. You've got to make the stakes high.

I do have the most adorable little Chihuahua mix. I adopted him about 3 1/2 years ago from Much Love pet adoption, and he has been the love of my life ever since.
