We use to have fish but haven't gotten any since we moved here. I would also love to get a parrot.

How about you?

9 turtles, and a DUCK!! The duck's name is Rubber. STupidest pet in history. I could have shot my son when he brought him home! :rolleyes:

The dog, Lovey, I do truly love. The cats I tolerate. (actually I like them too but hate to admit it as I was dead set against their adoption)

Heaven, do your bunnies live in the house with you and roam freely?

I would love to get a bunny. I'm still working on dh!
I have been told they get along with cats and can be litter trained. I think I'm more afraid they would beat up my cats!
I don't know that much about them.

We have about 6 neighborhood bunnies that live in our neighborhood and roam around freely.
I have 2 dogs even though 1 is in heaven now.
I hav 2 cats of my own and I take care of my neighbor's cats even though he doesn't take care of them at all.

Nothing but a dog and a cat at the moment, but I grew up with exotic birds. Nope, wwe didn't have Macaws Cockatiels! We had birds of prey. My dad had a federal raptor permit since we rehabilitated them. We always had some feathered critter in the house. Let's see...we had (over a period of time, not all at once!) a Red Tailed Hawk, several Barn Owls, a Screech Owl, a great Grey Owl, a Sparrow Hawk...can't remember what else, but we had others!

We also had a Canadian Honker (goose) with deformed wings that lived with us for years, as well as other ducks, a few chickens and many little fuzzies. At various times, we had gerbils, a mouse, rats and a Guniea Pig!

We have 2 cats, Scraps and Toonces. And a neighbors cat, who seems to be deciding that he likes our house better. And 1 guinea pig named Popcorn.

no the bunnies live outside. i can't have them in here because i have too many cords and they would eat thought them.

We have had hampsters, seamonkeys (died), gerbels, birds, iguinas, guinea pigs, a mouse, frogs, turtle. *once i thought we had a petting zoo.*

We have a duck too! He lives in the pasture with the pond. He didn't like the house. We also have a tarantula. His name is spidey and we all hold and love him. No, we are not the Adams family. LOL
