One rabbit, two hamsters. I have a thing for little critters.
Oh, and I'm hardly their owner. More like their protector.

At one point, I had 6 horses, 3 dogs, 5 cats, and a rabbit.

Now I have 1 dog and 3 cats. It's a little empty-feeling.

Mammals wise: my max was a rescued greyhound, rescued cat, and fostering 3 rescued parrots.

The greyhound passed and I found homes for the 3 parrots. Now, I'm down to the 17-year-old step cat (came with the wife). She's a cranky old broad with high blood pressure, arthritis, and diabetes. The cat, not the wife.

The wife and I have 2 cats, a "plucky" African Grey (Elaphe's while he's doing his RCMP thing), 2 Pacific Parrotlettes and a toad that I found at a client's window well. Not sure how it got there as there's no woodlands nearby o.O. 55gal FW planted community, SW fish and coral in a series of RubberMaid containers until I get around to building a 500gal system...renovating the house for the wife's needs/wants and upcoming ankle biters...LOL! Going to get a Bull Mastiff next year and French Bulldog the year after. Hmmm...me thinks the 500gal will be awhile...FAHQUE!

Critters that we've had:
Henkel's leaf tail gecko, Harlequin Lories, finches (Star, Cordon Bleu, Lady Gouldian, etc), blue front amazon, double yellow amazon, Goffin's cockatoo (RIP), chameleons (Nose Be Jackson's, Flapneck, Meller's), iguana, leopard geckos, African fat tail gecko, turtles (RES, Mississipi Maps, Diamond Back, 3-line musks), tortoises, (redfoot, Burmese and Indian star colony back in NT-HK rescued from a food market and villages near my mothers')...that's all I can think of.

We had a cat a her kittens. The cat, instead of brining us birds or rodents that most cats would hunt, she'd bring socks and rice krispy treat wrapers. The kittens were mean little creatures, hissing and clawing at your shoes before running off. They are actual stray cats that my roommate fed one day, and the cats have been coming to our door store ever since.

Last Monday, they were sent to a shelter, so now we're left with two finches in a cage. That act up when ever I fry chicken on the store. I wonder why...

I have one crazy little puppy dog.



This is the least amount of animals I've had around me in ten years or so. Our next two pets will be kitty cats. A Corgi is apparently in the future as well, and I'd eventually like a goat.

I wouldn't mind having a goat. Probably more reliable at mowing the back field than the kids.
We have one old golden retriever, and a bunch of wild birds at my bird feeders. Oh, and several neighbor cats that keep invading, mostly because of the bird feeders.

Currently, we own zero pets. However, I have been informed that when we no longer live with our roomie (who has two cats) we will be adopting Moo Shu the Attack Cat from my parents. I would also like to get a English Terrier, I figure if a dog needs to be raised around cats to learn to deal with them, this is the cat for the job.

I've a female cat and a brother/sister ferret pair. My cat still regards them with a measure of suspicion mingled with curiousity, while my ferrets are pretty much fearless little shit machines (as in, you know, they shit. A lot. I just cleaned their cage for the 3rd time today).

Here they are:
Azucar (male)


Canela (female)


And Courgette (female)

We have two young cats- one small tortoise shell named Sasha and a big ginger tabby named Peanut.

I had to put down my dog of 13 years on the 1st of July. The cancer finally got to where he could barely walk... He was a wonderful German Shepherd/Chow mix~ mostly golden Shepherd.

My two old cats, including my feisty Fuzz Bucket, trained my parents' dog so well that he has some distinctly cat-like behaviors. When my parents had our cats, Ruff and Tumble, Jack acted like their nanny, barking at them when they clawed furniture, knocked over their water dish, or did something they weren't supposed to. He'd go and get my mom and show her what the two kitties had done or gotten into. He came down to visit this last weekend, and Ruff and Tumble nuzzled his face like they'd missed him. It was sooo cute!
