My best friends & companions presently share my space: Oreo, a tuxedo cat and Rocco, a Merle poodle with partly blue eyes. Over the years I've enjoyed many animal companions, several dogs, cats, a horse, gerbil, fish, hermit crab, snakes,fish, a African grey parrot, geese and an iguana. Loved them all!

I live with three dogs, four cats, and seven chickens.

I've also owned hamsters, mice, rats, rabbits, and fish in the past.

I'd like to get more fish, a tarantula, and some robo hamsters down the road when I have my own place.

Actually, I brought none of these home so technically they aren't mine, but I do the taking care of them.

Two wolf hybrid dogs
One outside cat
One python
One Giant Flemish Rabbit

We recently had a dwarf hamster but he died.

We used to have a Dwarf Hamster, too... And it ended up being pregnant. 8O

Currently, we have three dogs and five fish.

We have had several fish and hamsters, a mouse, parakeet, and a lizard that lived off of crickets.

I'd also like to own a Manx Cat once I have my own apartment.

I dont own pets, so my partner and I both agreed, that we dont want to own pets, because of the responsibility, the troubles with holidays....

So we dont own pets, but a farmcat decided to visit us every 2-3 days and raid our garbage and beg/demand some more food. The cat then decided, that the space below our house entrance, would be a better place to give birth to some kittens, then the farmers place. The kittens then decided, they liked our house and would allow us to stay in it, as long as we feed them regularly. We agreed with them on the compromise, that they all got sterilized/castrated.

Now I only have a dog and a cat.

But throughout the past ten years my family has had:
2 dogs
3 fish
2 cats and tamed around 5 or 6 feral kittens for people
30-40 goats, The most we had at one time was 17, but on average we had around 4 or 5, but they had kids every spring that we then sold as pets.
10 chickens
2 oxen
and a skunk that moved under the barn and sometimes he casually walked out of the barn as I entered it.

I don't own my own pets, but I live with a family that has three dogs, two cats, and a few snakes. The snakes are my favorite because they mind their own business and don't make noise or try to harass me like the dogs and cats do. :P Actually, one of the cats is fairly well-mannered too, but the rest of the animals tend to drive me nuts.

I like pets, but usually only if they're at someone else's house. That is to say I like visiting them rather than owning or taking care of them.

I don't, currently, have a pet, but I've had cats all of my life. I've also had a ferret, a hamster, fish, and a guinea pig. My sister had a bird (I love all of God's creatures, but I CANNOT STAND being around birds----I can't stand the noise----it almost makes me have a seizure. I throw soft stuff at my window, almost every day, to stop that squawking, and shoo them away.), and an alligator.
