What kind of pets do you have?

12 Wolfhounds, three of which are rescues and five are puppies around two years old. Three of the wolfies are near the end of their time on this plane and will wait for us later.

The dying part is painful but way overbalanced by their lives and spirit

8 koi in the pond.
 
Three dogs, all lurchers. Two are BedlingtonXGreyhound, both bitches and an elderly Aussie Cattle DogXGreyhound dog. They all kill rabbits by the dozen. That's one of the reasons I keep them, so no, I don't feel guilty.
My pic is of my first lurcher, Boy, when he was about nine months old. His epitaph, 'Numero Uno' Never broke, never even bent.
To me lurchers are more than pets, they are working dogs, are more than a hobby, they are a passion.............
 
Right now I have:

1 Ball Python named Pandora
1 Cat named Kruemmi
3 Mud Skippers in an aquarium.
1 Aquarium full of fish.

Soon to have about 20 more snakes, 2 huskies and some sting rays.

Here are some pics of my snake and my cat.











 
DerAdler I couldn't sleep at night with them in my house , I have a phobia of snakes

Two dogs: Sally, a dalmation; Dixie, a beagle/mutt
two cats: Sammy and Princess
goats, of which: six are does; two are bucks; four are doelings; one is a wether; and six are wethered meat bucklings
numerous chickens and rabbits.
There is also alot of wildlife in the back and front yards as we are surrounded on all sides by trees.

I only have one at the moment, but no she is not dangerous. She is actually very friendly. I take her out atleast once a day, so that she stays used to me. Sometimes she can be a bitch, but that is because she is a wild caught python.

She is not very big though, only about 4.5 to 5 ft right now. She will be no bigger than 5.5 to 6.5 ft when full grown.

I used to have 2 other snakes; a Columbian Red Tailed Boa Constictor and a Burmese Python, but do to military requirements I had to leave them in the United States. As soon as me and my wife have our house built, I plan on getting about 20 different kinds.

sounds a whole lot bigger than they are. They are up 'till 90 cm long and as thick as your thumb. I think many of our American friends have them in the garden and they are absolutely harmless. Actually we used to have a lot of them, about 15 or so. Now we only have 1 left, the old sock turned 13 years old, which is quite old. We stop after this one and will put fish in the tank. I don't have digital photo's, so maybe I should make one later.

Adler is your python as stupid as garter snakes? I believe our snakes have a memory of about 5 sec
 
I have a squirrel that I call "Hungry Ned" that visits my yard quite often. I
have a saucer on a table that I put pistachio nuts that I can't open in, or
Ritz crackers with peanut butter on it, or Brazil nuts or peanuts in the shell
that I break in half first. He will let me get about two feet away from him
but I can't hand feed him...... I've tried.

wow, great pets! I like the snake, even though I'm not a big fan of snakes, or at least the ones hiding under a rock waiting to bite you.

That qoute cracked me up! Don't put a garter snake to close to your nose, they may bite it, lol.

I've always thought having a small dog like Toby would be fun, but never had one yet.

We have one dog, and a cat.

The cat is almost 10, but she's still pretty plucky.

We used to have some fish, but they all died eventually. We had a hard time keeping them all healthy and free from disease.

Our dog is still pretty young, not yet 6 years old. Here he is, he's called Paego. Don't ask me what it means, I don't know, his first owner called him that. He's a Labrador, but lots of people have wondered if he has any hound in him, but as far as I know I don't think so.

Cute dog Welch.

We have a cat, used to have two but one has disappeared.
 
Well, I have a twenty-year old cat, sadly I very much doubt she'll get to twenty-one! Because of her kidney problems - one blood test reading was off the scale, it may be a matter of 'weeks'. Although a previous vet in January said that, and its now September! Apart from the CRF (chronic renal failure), she also has dementia which means at times she howls!
I also, have fish; a 36" tropical tank, and outside a fish-pond with a large koi (left by the previous house-owners) and 6 medium goldfish, 1 young goldfish - from last years hatching, and 12+ from this years hatching.
