As a kid, I loved playing with small toy animal figurines, so one year, my mom got me some sort of pet store set that I absolutely LOVED. Sadly, I must have thrown most of them out/given them away because all that remain are a few odd accessories and two of the animals.

Here is what I remember:

Two Birds: a green-and-yellow toucan and a blue-and-purple unidentifiable bird. Very much like the colors of Trix Yogurt (Why I remembered them -- I called them Yogurt Birds!)

Two Dogs: I don't remember what they looked like, but I know at least one of them had its tongue sticking out.

Two Cats: I recently found the grey cat as if to prove I wasn't crazy. It's sticking out its tongue as well (which is why I know that there is a dog, because they used to be a "couple")

Mouse: A small grey mouse that is less than a centimeter long, possibly intended to be a cat toy

Birdcage: A blue, house-shaped cage with a pink roof and floor. (I still have this)

Pet bed: A yellow pet bed "basket" with two handles and a pink "pillow" on the inside. (I still have this too)

I believe the set also came with a few food dishes, but I can't remember if they were "filled" or not.

The entire set was made out of this weird plastic that felt squishy but wasn't. The animals were all VERY cartoony and simplistic, though the grey cat has some texture on her "fur."

I'm thinking my mom ordered them out of a holiday catalogue. Anyone know what these are? I will eventually post pictures of the few that remain.

If possible, can you please photograph the items you do have and post them here? These items sound like they could be from any number of pet playsets :)

In the meantime, do any of the items resemble those shown in these photos:

No to both -- none of those items resemble anything I've had, except for possibly the orange pet dish with food and water, and the remaining few toys are two hours away at my parents' place.

Hi ForeverKokiri,

  I'm pretty sure this is the animal set you're referring to; it's made by Jasman:

THAT'S IT!!!! That's them!

Mine was a bit different. It had a bird cage, and it didn't have the monkeys, pony, and a few of the dogs and cats, but OH MY GOSH THAT IS THEM! I'm so happy!

I remember the little milk bowl, and the bird stand, and the bone, and the doghouse, and oh my god this is FANTASTIC! How did you find this?

(I named the white dog "Milk" and the black and white cat "Oreo.")
