Two dogs and a cat.

chris9999

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

Glowing

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!

eden_my_ass

1 rabbit - lop crossed with lionhead
1 syrian hamster
16 tropical fish
and less free time and space and money than I had before them all!!

gidget

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...

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

Our man in Havana

Having the one is a lot easier, especially when it comes to walking it as opposed to three walking you.

We have 3 dogs, 4 ferrets, 21 rats and not counting 14 rat pups, lots of tarantulas, many lizards, many snakes and 2 frogs. Nearly forgot 7 aquariums of fish.

Lexie_Karas

With me at home I have two ferrets... 3 year old brothers called Neo and Freeman. They're adorable and great company and full of mischief! I have a dog aswell but she's living in Spain now. My folks moved there a couple of years ago when they retired and she retired with them! As much as it broke my heart for her to go given the choice to go and have my parents all to herself all day long or to stay here with me and be alone while I was at work (which she's never had to do before) I think she'd have chosen Spain herself. Even though I only get to see her a few times a year now she's still my best girl and always will be

wibblebee

OMG You rehomed Neo and Freeman. Saw them when we rehomed William and Vivi from Cottage Rescue, Tipperary. Is Freeman still nippy? We were trying them out with our other 2 ferrets, Haggis and Nibbler (brother and sister) they were ok together but Freeman jumped on top of the sofa and bit constantly. Naughty boy. Even Kelly was being bit by him. Neo also pierced my ear. So got William and Vivi and they are great all together. Fantastic pets. Its lovely to hear about them again.

Lexie_Karas

Hi!

Have you piccies of your guys?? I can't even imagine Freeman being bold, he is a complete angel!! He's as gentle as can be with us... even when he playfights with my hand he only catches me with his paws and then pins my hand down to lick it all over!! Neo on the other hand can get a little excited when playing, lol, and he nearly pierced my ear aswell but in fairness it was just after the vet chipped him so I think it was revenge!! And he thinks my other half's beard is another fuzzy and keeps tryin to get up to nip it.

They've settled in great, they are so full of beans! Their previous owner obviously had them well trained, they're great with the litter box and they don't wreck anything in the house and they're really good on the lead.

Its nice to know that some more of the group have nice homes I've talked to their previous owner a few times on a forum called The Ferret Hutch and he seems really nice... he was delighted to know that he knew one of the new owners of at least some of his fuzzies!

wibblebee

Thought i had some pics on this pc, but nope. Going to get OH to transfer them to this one or get him to post pics here. William is an albino and Vivi is polecat. William has a ratty tail and so does Vivi, due to hormones and time of year. Didnt know this until discussed on a ferret forum. Does your boys have rat tails? wispy bits of hair on their tail? Haggis and Nibbler dont have them, just normal tails. They are crazy and love to run and play especially in their tray of rice. They do love their ferretone though. Fantastic stuff. Amber necter to ferrets.

Lexie_Karas

Freeman had rattail when I got him but the fur is starting to grow back nicely now... it was a handy way to tell the two boys apart at a quick glance. Lol. Have you found anywhere to get ferretone in Ireland? I've been ordering it from the UK, it'd be great to be able to get it locally. The rice box is a big hit with both of them... between that and thier tunnel they can keep themselves entertained for hours!! I'm dying to get the chance to bring them to the beach though, thier previous owner says they love it... he has piccices of them playing at the waters edge.

Duiske

2 dogs and a Parrot. One of the dogs is a German Shepard, the other a mongrel. The 2 of them are best mates. And an African Grey parrot who never shuts up.

wibblebee

We only get ours from UK too. OH wants to take them all to the beach too. Would be lovely seeing their pics at the waterside. They are fantastic though. Well done in homing the boys. Excellent pets.

Lexie_Karas

He has one piccie of them at the beach in this link http://ferrethutch.forum6.biz/pictures-f28/come-on-in-the-waters-warm-t1379.htm Not sure what ferret is what in it... keep meaning to ask him if either of my guys are in it or is it too recent for that.

wibblebee

Have to wait for account to be activated to see piccies. My OH is posting pics of them at lunch time so not long to wait now.

Lexie_Karas

Ah sorry, I didn't realise you had to join to see them!

Here's some piccies of my two (taken on my phone so not great quality!)

This is the two of them


Here's Neo in his rice box


And here's Freeman falling out of his hammock

Hi Lexie, It was our ferrets pics you saw in this thread.

http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055394840&page=2

The first 3 pics are william (albino) and Vivi (sable). These were rehomed from Cottage Rescue.

The 4th-7th are Hagis, Nibbler and Petal. They are all siblings and were rehomed from TACT in Armagh along with there sister Noodles. As soon as we got them, they were taken to the vet to be fixed. Noodles passed away on the opperating table. We had a PM done but it showed no abnormalities. Unfortunately we also lost Petal to Cardiomyopathy earlier this year. It is our suspicion that the family has genetic heart problems hence the loss of Noodles and Petal. Haggis and Nibbler seem fine but it is always in the back of our minds.

The last pic is of fuzzie. He was our first ferret but unfortunately was only with us a month. Soon after we rehomed him (also from TACT), he was diagnosed with tumours on his heart and spleen (lymphosarcoma). After the month he became very week and he had to be PTS. Although we only had him a month, our time with Fuzzee was enough to get us hooked on ferrets.

Noodles, Petal and Fuzzee are all now happily playing across the rainbow bridge. Despite loosing 3 ferrets within the first 6 months of keeping ferrets, we have carried on with them and would not be without them now. Unfortunately ferrets are tough cookies and only tend to show that they are sick when they are very sick. They are very good at hiding illnesses.

Glad to hear that Neo and Freeman are doing well and that Freeman has settled. I am sure that he was just very excited when we met them. It took us about a month of supervised play sessions to get Haggis and Nibbler to accept William and Vivi. Most of the problems were between Haggis and William. They are all happily living together now.
