I have 7 fish now, one passed a week back.

Ranger, Santa, Sherbert, Treasure, Porkchop, Shark, and Melody are all either common goldfish or comets.

We have had them for over 4 years and they are always treated with the best of care.

OMG a fish named Porkchop...nice ^^.

Today all three dogs are going to get a bath, first time for Mr. Nacho. But earlier we went to vet to get Samson and Harvey's pills. Our vet moved his practice to a new building (this one is a lot bigger) and it has a fish tank. Saltwater. Some of the fishes are from Finding Nemo. I love looking at those fish, and occasionally one of them decides to be friendly to me. You know, just come to the front of the glass, not swim off and hide.

I could watch fish all day, but never had any luck actually caring for fish. So you have done a very good job Taishi. Congrats.

My neighbor's beagle just caught a rabbit and was eating it...it was gross (wonder if he ate that treat that I had tossed over in an attempt to divert his attention).

I love them all equally and they're very wonderful doggos <3 I can't imagine a life without dogs, or pets in general :italian:

I wish I had a pet, adly my mother won't allow any at the moment. We'll move into a bigger house in 1 - 2 years, maybe she'll change her mind then. Our apartment is very small as as far as I know, does not allow any pets unfortunately.
My dream pet would probably be a bombay cat, they're just so adorable! ^^

But truly, the most cruel thing to me is when you have a dog that is already old, and has been an inside dog since puppy hood, and sticking him outside just because you got new carpet D<

I own two dogs who are my entire world. One is an almost eleven year old 65 lb crotchety old mutt, who is 99.9% sass. He's been an old soul his entire life. He's SO vocal and demanding, and has yet to realize he's a "senior" dog as he is constantly demanding more activity. He'll swim, run, dig etc until I make him stop. He doesn't have an off switch. He's been a handful and a challenge due to intolerance/dislike of most people and other animals, but I wouldn't trade him for anything. He came to me with a crushed face as a pup, after a friend picked him up running along the side of the highway. My vet jokes that he's the first dog they ever did a nose job on. He healed okay, but still has a crazy face and some breathing difficulties. He snorts and blows nose bubbles sometimes when he gets excited, lol.

My other dog is a six year terrier. She is my shadow. I adore her so much and she is attached to my hip. She's so much fun. She isn't keen on other animals though, so I can't have other pets. Her and my old guy have an unspoken agreement on giving each other space so they get along semi well. I do a lot of proactive measures to prevent fights.

They are definitely a lot of work but seriously, they make my life worth living and I don't know what I'd do without them. I could go on talking about pets/animals/my life experiences with them but I've already typed a novel and have probably put everyone reading to sleep!

Ok so I've currently got a purple male veiltail betta fish named Finley as well as two parakeets named Tango and Tweety. We've also got an aquarium with a couple of different kinds of tetras and a pictus catfish - none of which are named. Outside, we keep a huge aviary with about 200 pigeons for breeding/selling and four of the sweetest (and plumpest) little chickens you have ever seen! In the past, I've owned 3-4 other bettas and numerous fish as well as a bun, a snail, seven other chickens, two cockatiels, 4 zebra finches, three other parakeets, a robin who was abandoned from her nest, and a squirrel (sort of). Me and my brother also like to hatch stray caterpillars that we find to see what they turn into :)

The fish don't really have any interesting stories to them; they just swim around and stuff but at some point we had little freshwater crabs who really were escape artists. They managed to crawl up the end of a leaf, up the aquarium heater and down across the hall into my room! The catfish loves to get caught in stuff and I've had too many frantic moments of trying to get him loose somehow. Sometimes baby pigeons are abandoned because their parents might not know how to raise the young so I've ended up having to raise quite a few chicks. They look pretty funny to me in a weird way. The chickens we hatched at home but 5 of them ended up being roosters and their crowing might've disturbed the neighbors so we had to give them away :( Currently, we have an americauna, new hampshire, blue laced wyandotte and golden laced wyandotte. I also had a white silkie, plymouth rock, dominique, andalusian, and a mille fluer d'uccle. I caught the baby robin wandering around during a walk and saw that he couldn't fly so I took it in. The squirrel liked to come up to our patio door to ask for peanuts everyday and was pretty friendly so it was cool having him around but he wasn't exactly a real pet.

Anyways, even though I have all of these pets and am still planning on adopting another one (African grey parrot that needs to be rehomed) I really want a cat but my parents don't really like them... thats cool I guess.
