Hi Nella, I've got a few short stories posted on this site, labeled V Pet Series: "something". http://www.vampirespet.com/Ruby.html is my home website. It has links to where you can read chapters for free and see if the stories are something you'd enjoy. They range from rough to romantic and back again. Vanilla they aren't. * wicked grin*

Good luck.

Status: offline 		I'm not sure how your Master divides the roles, but I will describe how I see a pet to be.

A good pet does not seek the spotlight, but rather lays or kneels beside her Master, to hold his glass of wine, his whip, or share in some furtive joke. When he paints the back of a shrieking slave in crimson stripes, she may be the smile beyond the rim of light that is his private audience. In social events she may be the quiet, nearby servant that lights cigarettes, fetches a drink, attentively waiting for her next instruction. Or she may simply be a female who is kept in luxury for pleasure alone. A pet is an intimate creature that does not necessarily have to be treated harshly, but regardless of the form of service, her focus is upon her Master.

Slaves and pets have different relational geography, but can be equally intimate in how they interact. Separating slave and pet may not always be a logical exercise, however; they can often be one in the same. The gradations of meaning become so fine here that it's impossible to give one concrete answer that applies to all, as is often the case when speaking of personal subjugation.

I have a question. I am an Alpha Sub (I know some of you do not like that term and I am sorry) meaning a Sub to only one, my Sir while a Domme to all others. He also has another beautiful young sub, and says we are in a Poly Relationship (I have my own Sub as well). Recently, friends in our lifestyle have become confused as to our relationship and protocol. I am often the one left to my own devices by my Sir while they are together, so friends want to play ( I am a very playful person). Sir recently tried to explain our positions through a post on our groups web-site where he introduced his other Sub as his "Slave" (ok...I know what that is...) and me as his "Pet" ????? Now, he doesn't treat me like a dog and pull me around on a leash or do "puppy" training. So, I know he doesn't mean that. I tried to look up "Pet" under BDSM terms and there is nothing....so I am more than a bit confused. If it is just a term of endearment, than what the hell am I? And no, we are not treated equally. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it. Thanks!


Honestly this is a question for him and not for anyone else.

Each person will have her own definition.

Status: offline 		i am not owned, but Master and Mistress both refer to me as'pet'. it is to me a 'term of endearment' that makes me feel special to them and that Master/Mistress are interested in me.

what Faramir stated makes sense to me as to why and what it means to be called 'pet'.

Status: offline 		Ok, while I find "pet" to be cute and all, I am just wondering for those who just use it as a term of endearment (as opposed to a status parameter), is that the only nickname allowed in bdsm other than the standard slut etc... I would rather like to think myself as rather unique and would like to have a nickname that is set apart from the zillions of "whatevers" out there. Is this a sign of laziness or lack of creativity or both?

Any nickname which Master chooses to use is allowed.  There is not a rule book on names, or activities, etc.

Master calls me many things, depending on his mood and my purpose at that time.  Some are common names, some are unique, and fitting only to me. Each nick name has its own meaning, which is jointly understood.  He does occasionally call me pet, and it is an endearing term (i have heard many a vanilla relationship use this nickname endearingly as well).  pet, as he uses it for me, tends to be as someone else said, symbolic of the family pet.  Loved, loyal, knowing him, sharing in the quiet moments.  pet may be the girl who receives a tender stroke of the face, or a playful pat on the head.  pet looks at him adoringly, with love in her eyes.

To the OP, often if my Master wishes for me to figure something out on my own, i will not receive a reply to a question, either.  Perhaps the best thing to do is to write to him about what that term means to you and how it makes you feel.  If he feels you are off course, trust that he will correct it.  If he does not respond, trust that you have it right.

Status: offline 		I have no idea what he means exactly by the term, but it seems to me to be clear that he is publicly aknowledging just what you said, that your relationship with him is different than the relationship he has with his slaves. He has elevated you above them in a rather charming way I think. Be glad

Status: offline 		Definition of pet is an animal kept for companionship and enjoyment as opposed to livestock according to Wikipedia; around the Victorian era 'Pet' was used as a term of endearment for a lover, wife meaning she was special, spoiled (and considering the historical period I would assume owned), the definition of pet as far as pet name instead of nickname is personal name; either derived from the individual's given name or a personal name with in the relationship...none of this answers the question directly but it does provide a general gestalt of how the term can be intended...I agree that the definition needs to come from Him to actually understand the semantics behind what he means...
In my personal case, mine has a tat from her first master defining her as" _____'s Pet", after hearing the story behind their relationship, the term has been poisoned for me personally, I think both historically and interpersonally it can hold great, intimate meaning but I would never choose to use it.
