I have 3 cats and one neighborhood cat. our 17 year old dog died in march, and I miss him.

I collected animals as a teenager. I had a zoo. had about 70 rats at one time, too.

Living with parents. Two chihuahuas and a cat.

The dogs are fine, but having to walk them daily is a chore.

The cat is a terrorist, but a cute one.

I get in trouble for feeding and taking in stray cats. :?

I love animals. I have 2 dogs, 2 guinea pigs, 1 cat, 22 goats, and a few fish in the goats' water tank. Other animals I would like to own in the future include: gerbils, llamas, and chickens. Other more exotic animals that I'm researching are parrotlets, fennec foxes, African civets, kinkajous, prairie dogs, capybaras, springhares, and wallabies. I think I would enjoy working in a zoo.

Sorry to hear about your dog. My family dog died about 2 years ago and I still miss him very much. :( He was pretty good at getting himself into trouble but on the other hand he was always so innocent somehow! I really want to get a dog when I have my own place. I love dogs!

I was never really allowed to have a pet, aside from a gerbil, that stayed in my brother's room.

Two cats. I love animals. Wonderful conversationalists those animals, though one time there was a tree that told me of its many tales. Taught me many things. We had a wonderful walk down around the bay of quinte, there was no one in sight. It was perfect. Then I woke up the next morning.

We had dogs and cats growing up, a horse and I had a mouse (briefly). One cat I taught to sit on a skateboard and ride on the handle bars of my bike. I even trained this husky mix to pull a wagon but a neighbor called the cops and that ended the fun. Now we have a 14 year old cat that my son takes care of and also spoils him. I have 3 parakeets. My daughter has 2 finches which are more like my finches, and 3 snails. She also has 2 anoles and a few fish she keeps at her dad's. Dog's are cool but not cool enough that I follow them with a baggy.

I once lived with a girl and between us we had
two cocker spaniels, one cat, 16 guinea pigs, 14 rats, 5 mice, 9 acomys, 3 degus, 10 chinchillas, a fishtank, 1 cockateil, 4 budgies, And (alternately) a turtle, a ferret, & a rabbit.
The guy living in the basement also had 2 rats of his own.

Now I've just got chinchillas. Don't ask me how many because I'll lie to preserve my reputation :P

I LOOOOOVE animals! I am so much more comfortable around animals than I am people! I am not allowed to own any pets while living with my parents, unfortunately. :cry: If I ever move out I will be getting some. I want a service dog, actually.
