    i have 2spoiled cats:D and my parents have 1 dog

    Neither :( Fostered a few cats, and can't WAIT to have my own when circumstances allow.

    My ideal pets would be a couple of retired greyhounds, but unfortunately, with the way my job is, I'll never have the time to care for them properly. They're the COOLEST pets though :) Cats will have to do, they're a very close second!

    1 rabbit - lop crossed with lionhead
    1 syrian hamster

    One dog, who we've recently taken in!!! I'd love more pets but he doesn't like cats or birds and he can blow hot & cold when it comes to dogs!!! So for the timebeing it'll just be him until i can sort him out with dog training!!

    I have three cats, I adore them. They are great company and are all real individual in their personalities. But like a previous poster I would love a retired greyhound someday. My granny had several over the years and they are lovely dogs, so graceful and gentle, excellent pets...

    Just one cat, Henry but he lives with my girlfriends family 250 kilometres away. They're in a remote village in the countryside and he's got company all day and two other cats to play / fight with.

    This is him at 7 or 8 months old

    lost count of the ferrels 20, 30 +

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 590 ✭✭✭Jimkel


    3 rabbits, 2 ferrets, 7 budgies, 11 rob hamsters, last count anyway!, I think 15 degu's a the moment, fish!! - too many to count, At home and in work combined your looking somewhere in the region of 7000 - 10000, from marines and brackish to freshwater tropical and coldwater. 2 bearded dragons. I have kept at home or cared for in work virtually every available reptile and fish in the pet trade, although I am still learning allot about birds and small mammals, and the varanid genus of reptiles, ie monitors still leaves alot for me to explore.

    One dog who I love to bits. She lives with my Mum while I'm in college and I can't wait to get home on a Friday to see her. When I get in she yelps and barks with excitement.

    Also have a hamster, Daisy, who keeps me company down in college. Like my dog, I couldn't be without her. If I'm in the room, no matter how quiet I am, Daisy is awake and has to see me. Love her.

    Hey , Jimkel, I'm curious as to where you work. It sounds like fun if you get to care for reptiles and fish!!

    I have a YBS 4 1/2 year old terrapin scooter. Unfortunately she has a resp infection at the moment but usually she's full of life and cute as a button :)

    Two gorgeous cats, both boys, the elder is going on for 7 and he's ginger and white and the younger one is black with a white patch on his neck and his middle toes on both of his front toes are white - so cute!
    As you can prob tell I love them to bits!

    Would love a dog but I work fulltime so I don't think twould be too fair on the littel critter.
