I was just curios about what other kinds of pets people had besides cats.

Besides our cats, our family includes, Frankie and Cookie, Siberian Huskies, Ardie and Boots, retired racing greyhounds, and Sukie the St. Bernard. I am a representative for a group that places greyhounds and people can't believe that greyhounds and cats can live together. I'm not saying all can, but my group (and a few others that I know of) do what they call "small animal testing" which is a test of a greyhound (in his basket muzzle and on a leash) in a room with a cat or small dog to see if they are interested in the small animal. I've even got one of my abys living with a few other greyhounds, an italian greyhound and since his mom fosters greyhounds, he gets a variety of others to rule. And I have to say that he does a good job of it. BTW, she is one of the others that makes sure her greys are small animal safe. So that's our family or as my mom and friends say my small zoo.

Griffin, I have 22 cats, one German Shepherd dog, a misplaced peacock (people moved, he lost his mate so he pines for her in a tree by our creek) and a horse. I also take in orphaned and injured wild animals (raccoons, skunks possums) to send them on their way to rehab.

I have a fire-bellied newt. I got her 18 years ago, but I don't know how old she was then, so she might be over 20. I'm not even sure she's a she. If anyone knows how to tell a newt's gender, please let me know. It would be neat to know what s/he is.

2 cats, 2 kids, and one very dependant husband.:tounge2:

Ps. Would love to get an aquarium eventually, but not too sure of the type of fish I would want. I hope to get educated and then purchase one perhaps for Christmas next year.

Kitties and a cute boy, that's all!


I've looked at getting fish, but all the ones I like are a lot of work, and I'm just not gonna do all that for a fish.

I want dogs, and bunnies, and well, just about any other animal you could name. I love them all, but not really in a position to have any others yet, money and time wise.

My two cats, Sadie and Soltie, are the only animals I have now, and they prefer it that way. Use to have a boston terrier (Molly) but she passed away--I think these are the best dogs. I had a husband but took him to the shelter and someone else adopted him
. Last I heard she was thinking about taking him back.

Besides the two cats, Gabrielle and Tifa, I have a Springer Spaniel called Mattie, and 5 guinea pigs - Cricket, Wookie, Snowball, Peekaboo and FeeBee. I want to get another cat or two, but right now Gabby is stressed out so that is on hold. I hope to get another dog in the future as well, maybe a horse.

In the past I have had horses, hammies, bunnies - I am a real animal lover!!

I have 3 cats. One Siamese, one black and white one, and my oldest who weighs a hefty 16 pounds is all grey.
I have one black, pure bred registered pug, named Otis. My cats torture him everyday and I know they live just to make him suffer.
Would love to have a fish but I know they would find some way to torture it too.
Must say the cats rule this house!
