Pets

[liszmaninopin]

I'm just curious, but do you have any pets?  I have a little white dog; we did have a big retriever, but he passed away just last week.

I have a German Shepard.  I used to have a Collie too, but she died last august.  She was a damn cool dog.  We also have three cats.  One's named Mr. Jingles, he's orange.

I used to have tons of exotic animals - reptiles, marsupials, amphibians - you name it. Now I have no pets at my mother's house and three cats- Rupert, Pumpkinhead, and Baby Stripe - and a great dane - Chewy - at my dad's.

While granny (dad's mom) was still around, we used to be living in the countryside with vast field for growing all sorts of veggies, a garden growing all sorts of flowers and an orchard growing peaches, guavas, bananas, lychees and longans - all tropical fruit exotic to many folks here . Grandma used to have a maximum of 7 cats and 3 dogs at a time! That was some 20 years ago.

Now we have a 17-month-old male Siberian Husky. Very timid to other fierce animals like barking chihuahuas and even purring cats! Rarely barks, if ever, therefore never provoked complaints from neighbours.

He would howl sadly (but then, aww . . . what a sweet howling voice he has! By the way is that the equivalent to human crying?) sometimes if locked out in the living room when we need some nice sleep.

I used to have a fish. His name was Fred. Fred died when I took him on vacation in a ziploc container and then left him in the car on a hot, sunny day. Poor Fred..

Squinchy you should be ashamed of yourself- taking a fish on holidays- why didn't you leave it with trusted friends?  What the hell were you thinking?

I have three aquariums of Goldfish and tropical fish.  I love them very much...pet friends are better than people friends because you never get tired of them.  Love is unconditional.

I've never owned something so large as a goat. I like goats, though.

I had a mouse named Pinstripe who died recently at three years old, which apparently in human years is like one-hundred-and-something. He was very prolific and had 64 children by his wife, who understandably died a lot earlier.

[thomas_williams]

My family had goats until recently.

We have many cats (so many that I've lost track) and a cockatiel.

My wife an me are never at home, so weve been keeping turtles for the past 2 years. Wed love to have dogm but wed never see him.

By the way... can a turtle play the piano?

Ive put 2 of them on the keyboard and they can play chopsticks..... really slowly.
