I've got two cats, along with 4 dogs and a rabbit. All of them are fixed (Except maybe the rabbit, but we keep her inside in her own large cage.) All of my pets are also indoor animals.
Pumpkin is a female orange tabby, short-haired. She's definitely my cat.
Newton is a male brown tabby, short-haired. Newton is fat and fuzzy. He was gotten by my older brother when he was a kitten, and when my brother moved out he stayed with us. A year or two back (when he was still a partially outdoor cat, before we got Pumpkin) he got horribly sick and he couldn't use the restroom, and he had an awful smell, and wouldn't eat anything. (I think it was some sort of bladder problem) and he had to have surgery for it. He's a lot nicer cat now.
Phoebe is a female toy poodle. She's the oldest of our pets, at 14 years of age. She's blind. I really can't remember when she used to be able to run faster than my brother and I. Now she just wanders in small, tiny circles, and bumps into things. If you try to pick her up, she'll snap at you. She barks at random noises (the ones she can hear), and we're afraid she's losing her senses of smell and hearing too. My sister also thinks she has something wrong with her hips, but my mom doesn't.
Chia is a chihuahua, and is probably the youngest of our dogs. She's a rescue dog, and we've come to assume she was hurt or abused by a darker-skinned man who wore hats a lot. She would always bark at people who looked like that. When we first took her to the park she was so timid, and now she's really good, and we can even take her to the big dog side of the dog park.
Max is a bichon-pomeranian mix. Younger than Phoebe and Millie, older than Chia. He's a really sweet dog, though his fur grows really fast
We think Millie is a Golden Retriever- Australian Shepherd mix, but we can't be sure because the people we got her from found her as a stray. They had looked all over for her owners but couldn't. All she had on was a flea collar and her fur was all messy. I wish I had a more recent picture of her (I didn't take this one) We had her taken to the vet to have her checked out a few months ago, and thankfully she is fixed, but her teeth are worn for her young(ish?) age, the vet said, meaning she was probably locked in a cage often. She was very reluctant about getting into her kennel on the first night we had her. Also, she has heart worms
Bunny is supposedly a Harlequin mix rabbit, and is a really sweet one, too. When you put your hand up to her cage she'll come and lick it. We got her from someone who'd had her for three years (and didn't even know what gender she was, so they named her Bunny!) and they kept her in a tiny cage only maybe three times her size. We set on a project to make her a new cage, and it's all made by us. She likes it much better. Bunny loves being rubbed in between her ears.
