I have 4 wonderful dogs besides my 2 wonderful kitties.

Jenny is a 9 year old rottie/yellow lab mix we think she may have golden retriever in her as well
she is my heart dog.

Rocky is almost 11 and he's a black lab mix. I honestly think he may have some beagle in him.

Buster is a 3 year old coonhound

Ginger is a 7 year old corgi mix

Other than the three cats, I just have Jake, my 9 year old Australian Shepherd-Border Collie mix. Buffy and Willow hate him (though Buffy loves to taunt him and get him in trouble with us humans by teasing him into following her all day, giving her an excuse to wail and holler). Molly, though, LOVES Jake and Jake loves her. Well, it's actually kind of hard to tell if Jake loves her, but he loves the fact that she's not afraid of him, lol. He gets so excited when she chirps and runs up to him and gives him a headbutt. He doesn't have a clue what to do next when she does that, so he just wags his tail like mad and then gives her a push with his face, lol

Wow, there are a lot of people here who would be qualified to run a zoo! I think most people know I have three ponies in addition to the five cats. And I am thinking very seriously about adopting a dog.

Next to the World's Largest 6-pack
we have the 3 cats.

10-gallon fish tank:
1-cherry barb
6-neons
2-cory cats
1-can't remember what kind, but a small south american catfish

2-gallon fish tank:
3- white cloud mountain minnows

we had a mouse and a gerbil for a few years, but i haven't been able to convince DH into letting me have another gerbil since my last passed on.
i adopted them when i worked at a shelter several years ago(no one else was going to take them). i really like gerbils and would love to adopt one or 2 again. the hubby was not swayed at all when the shelter here had a bunch of gerbies in.


for those who don't think fish live a long time--our 10 gallon tank was "adopted" from a shelter in 2001. i still have 1 lone cherry barb who came with the tank, and who knows how old that fish was when i got him.
our neons are at least 2-3 years old. and one of my cory cats is a good 4-5 yrs old. the other is about 3 yrs old.

There's no place like home
We have 2 dogs who happen to be littermates, Sam and Spike. Their mother was an Irish Setter mix. Sam is 75 pounds and looks very much like a Golden Retriever. Spike is 95 pounds and has the body of a lab and the head of a setter with the curly hair of a black setter (sort of in spots around his body). They will be 4 in November.

We also have a part time dog that actually lives across the street but begs to come inside every time the weather is bad (she is an "outdoor" dog). Her name is Vader and other than a little bit of Rottie, we have no clue what she is and her owner doesn't know her age as she was a freshly spayed stray when she wandered up to their house a few years back. For a poor dog that was handed the life of an outdoor dog, she is very well behaved and likes to sleep under the coffee table. We've told the neighbor that we would adopt her from them but they aren't willing right now. She runs the neighborhood when she's outside.

Geez, I thought we were offering a small petting zoo in our home, but a lot of you put me to shame!!!


Let's see...

Obviously, the 3 cats...Fergus, Ripley, and Captain Steuben.

Then, the 3 dogs...Melvin (7 yr old golden retriever), Puppy (lab/chow/rottie mix), and Rita (8 week-old basset hound pup).

What can I say? We're equal opportunity pet owners...we have the best of both worlds!

Besides my 2 cats, I also have a Senegal Parrot called Jasper. He (although I've never had him DNA tested, he could be a she) is very very loyal and devoted to me, and jealous of any attention I give to others or that I receive myself. He chose me by screaming loudly and regurgitating for me when he first laid eyes on me, and I couldn't ignore such a poignant plea to be with me. He's about 5 now and still doesn't have his adult eye colour, he's still a baby. I hope he will be with me (and I with him!) for the next 30 years! He talks a bit, Sennies are not really known for their ability to speak, but he has a few phrases that he uses, and he understands much more besides what he has learned to say. He likes to give kisses and a bit of mutual grooming. He's a one person bird and will only let me touch him, he's cuddly with me but I fear he may savage others.
