2 dogs - one from a shelter directky, the other ones mom was in the shelter prego's and she was fostered out to have her pups.

2 cats - both from irresponsible homes that didn't care to have their cats spayed in the first place.

 

A dog when I was a kid.. couple house cats.. probably a dozen wild 'barn' cats that became friendly... I also had a scorpian and an iguana for awile...

The wife has all kinds of fish and a budgie right now.. she used to have a couple hedge hogs...

 

Tyler did you know you can also call those dogs Spoodles? I had one a couple years ago.

So yea, had one dog spoodle/co ckapoo he passed away a couple years ago at age 18(his age not mine) his name was Clancy, my sisters dog a 1 year old Black Lab named Lexus, I had a variety of fish when I was younger - beta's bottom feeder, id shark, 2 guppies, zebra tetra. I had a goldfish when I was really young and when we had our other cat named Ginger who has been long gone. Now we have a 3 year old cat named Daisy, I had a hamster named Jonathon Brisby(sp) (Secret Of Nymh, not sure how to spell it) and my sister had a hamster though I dont remember the name. We had my uncles cat Spike for a year, he died last year of liver disease sadly. And I do believe that's about it. Unless you wanna count the chipmunk that lived under our front porch and would make his way up to the deck around the otherside where the pool is and we'd feed him peanuts.

 

DOG - beagle - Muffin, when i was a wee lad, SPCA

DOG - bichon/****zu - Mr. Tibbs, got him for my 10th bday now he's 13 yrs and REALLY sick w/ cancer..., got him from breeder.

 

did i mention my anti-pet?!?....
sorry for any cat lovers but...

I HATE CATS!!! i would never buy one as a pet and i'm set on dogs. what did a cat ever do for you?

 

My cat's there for me and know's when somethings wrong, if I'm pissed off the thing will bug me and try to make me smile. The cat keeps me company and is entertaining when I'm bored. That seems good enough for me.

My sisters cat does the same and it also acts as a guard cat. The cat was guarding my brother in law one day and his friend went to jump at him on the bed to tackle him or whatever and the cat was on the bed, it leaped up in mid air at the guy and bit him in the butt. This cat also used to guard the bedroom door wouldn't allow me to get by it at night, it would lunge at me and try to bite me etc. How many cats do you know that actually guard their owners ??

/\ Your cat also likes to jump on people's heads in the middle of the night. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

What do my 3 cats do for me? Bring a smile to my face. They love you who who you are. What more do you need?

 

I had a great cat - Missy.
We opened the door to let the dog in from it's walk in the mioddle of the winter (out in the country) and the cat just walked in.
Lived with us for ~8yrs.

Like Teri said; it always knew when something was up and tried to make you feel better. Wouldn't leave you alone until it did. Used to sit and watch me do my college homework and when it decided I needed a break it would lay on whatever I was doing.
It was a guard cat also. It chased off many a big dog and on more than one occassion I heard a dog yelping and looked out just in time to see a big dog run by with my cat riding on its back with claws in deep.

Best pet I ever had and I can honestly see why a person would pay $5000 to clone a past favourite pet.

OK, that's enough of my sensitive side. I guess I do have one after all.

 

Have I think 1.5 year old cat named Stitch...
And a wife...

 

Currently have a young yellow lab, a budgie and a green iguana. Have also had 2 golden retrievers in the past, a sheltie, a couple other budgies and a gecko.

Oh, and I also had a snapping turtle that I caught in a river and tryed to keep in an aquarium. It didnt work too well since it didnt eat anything so I had to put him back in his natural home. (which was a good thing for him, but I was young at the time, didnt know any better).
