A couple rescue cats, orange tabbies. They add a lot to life. One has a physical disability and one a psych issue or two - but hey, it ain't like I myself don't have both! :lol:

I currently own two cats, and since they're Ragdolls, they have a lot of dog personality traits too. But they still purr and use a litter box...

Just one indoor cat now, C.C., a Calico cat. We estimate she is 14 years old. (Her name stands for Calico Cat, Christmas Cat and Cute Cat).

We also have a number of feral cats we take care of. The oldest is a 16 year old Siamese.

I have a guinea pig & my girlfriend just adopted a pregnant cat cuz her sister was getting rid of her & my girlfriend had to put her cat to sleep months ago. The one she just got had 3 kittens a couple days after we got her but we are not keeping them. We also just adopted a rabbit last week because we both felt sorry for her because she has bad vision. They were practically giving her away at the county fair.

I have a standard poodle, who is in training to be a service dog, several fish (only one is officially mine, but I take care of my dad's, too, so for all intents and purposes, they're also mine), and a crested gecko. I had a cat, too, but she died in May.

2 dogs now, our first dog pased away last year



My dog, Whiskey, had to be put down toward the end of August.

He was a big dog and still managed to live 12 years. I was only expecting him to live about 7 years considering his size.

I don't but I would like to own one. Technically my mother and I have had cats but they were not animals that I myself owned. I've been around some dogs in my life. Held snakes and tarantulas as well but never owned any myself.

I would like one whenever I get my own place but knowing that I have to take it to the vet as well as other things is what bothers me. I simply have too much social anxiety to see myself work up enough courage to do so. Thus, I cannot see myself owning a pet and I don't have my driver's license to take them anywhere either (anywhere outside of walking distance like to the vet).

Whenever I get my stuff worked out, I would like to own maybe a cat or a dog, or perhaps a hedgehog someday.
