on Friday May 18th, 2012 at 09:00 PM
This past week, we learned just how devoted as pet owners that you all are!

While our winner will be chosen at random, I still wanted to feature some of my favorite crazy pet owner habits.

Of course we all knew it would happen: pets have joined in the meme. The internet has all kinds of hilarious pictures of dog and cat photobombs.
Recently, we found a videophoto bomb of a news segment with a dog named Stormy who pops up right at the beginning. Check it out!
