MOSES LAKE — Canine or feline, equine and even the occasional arachnid, people in the Columbia Basin love their pets. An appeal for pictures of pets brought more than 200 responses on the Columbia Basin Herald’s social media. A few are pictured here, with comments from some of their grateful owners. There were so many that pet pictures might be a continuing series.

Thanks to all the readers who responded.
