Do you own pets? If so, what kind? If not, why not?

I would love to have a pet, but I don't want to neglect it when I am working.

I used to have 4 cats. It was pretty intense.

2 albino ferrets
2 torti-calico cats
1 blue russian cat
1 maine coon cat
1 flame lynx point applehead siamese
1 dsh (domestic short hair) tabby cat
1 hooded hairless rat
1 blue dumbo rat
1 fancy black rat
1 roboski hamster
and lots of fishes (mollies, corys, plecos, and a huge goldfish)
Working at a pet store it's not hard to want to bring home everything, but there is a limit!!

I love animals
and i hope that i can allwayz have 1

right now i have
1 dog
and 2 cats
Have a Great Day!

I have two cats that practice manipulative psychological tricks on me to try to get food. They look sweet but don't be fooled!

I have a cocker spaniel. Well, actually the better way to say this is my wife and kids have a cocker spaniel; I just sit there and watch it pee on my carpet and then take her outside.

yes i own one cute cat.She is perfect and i love her madly.

Yes,
Two cats - a mixed breed named-- Tinkerbell
-A British Blue - named -Jonesee

I have a Kelpie X, a Boxer X Lab puppy (looks more like a Boxer), two silver Chinchilla Persians, a Persian X and a cat I got from the RSPCA (not sure of her breed).

Oh yes - a dog, French Bulldog called Louis. Here he is.....

my bros have a hamster but i have a parakeet 2 guinea pigs and a dog

I have 2 apple head chihuahuas tiny and ruby they are great and soon i will have some puppys from them

Thoughout my life I use to have a Jack Rustle Terrier named OJ, 5 turtles named after the ninja turtles (fifth one named venus) and I also had an African Grey by the name of Trouble.


When I get the chance I would like to raise a Argentinian Mastiff or another Jack Rustle Terrier and Maybe another parrot too.

Working to not neglet an animal can help in commitment skills not to mention a build in one's character.

A barn/house cat, a rescued pound pooch, 3 horses a Quaker Parrot that rules all and a multitude of outside critters that want to be inside ones. Possums, coons and a very determined porcupine.

1 pup +5

3 dogs, 1 cat, 2 snakes, 2 Anoles, 40+ fish.

Two Cats! :-/

I have 1 dog.

Four cats at the moment

two dogs,two cats,rabbits and two horses.

Yes ! but their not animals,,,,,hheeeeeee

I have 2 dogs. Both working dogs.
They assist my night watchman.

3 dogs, 2 rotts and a mutt oh yeah and the tarantula that lives in my back yard, not a pet but we feed her!

Two golden retrievers and one pitbull.

I have a cat. He only 4 months old so he's still really energetic. I think he thinks he's a dog though, because he attacks people he doesn't know when they come into our house.

well ihave a few pets to start i have 2 dogs one is at my dads work pitbull avalon then my dog that i have at home my cuty spooky american eskimo chihuaha mix 7 months old then i have a bird a nanday conure chilli who is 14 i got her when she was 11 i love her then i have had 2 cockatiels for like 8 yrs know one had flew into my yard when i was out side and i caught it and i had a bird cage and i put it in there then i got him a friend his name is polly and his friends name is tweety

I own a horse (half Arabian/half Quarter Horse) named April, a ferret named Sneefers, and some fish. I love my horse because she's tons of fun (almost literally..) as well as a means of transport. Sneefers is an awesome pet because she's so curious and funny. The fish are awesome because they're pretty.. of course.

I would love to have another dog, but my health prevents me from taking the care that they need, so I just enjoy my sister's cats and dogs when I am over there. She has one long hair cat and three Toy Rat Terriers. I dont want to have one if I cant care for it properly.

I own a Bichon Frise puppy. I am a first time dog owner. My husband technically bought it for my six year old, but since I am the feeder, he thinks he is MY dog. It is very much like a child in the respect that: IT IS A PAIN IN THE ASS TO TAKE CARE OF ANOTHER LIFE. On the other hand, I now know like dog owners have known for centuries, that LIKE a child, a dog can bring so much peace and happiness to a human life, that the benefits oftimes outweight the negatives.

i have 2 dogs.... staffies

I have 2 dogs but only a pic of one

Rottweiler, bearded dragon & snake.

I have 2 fish, 2 parakeets, and a hamster (well i think my sis owns the fish and my mom owns the parakeets)

I have 2 fish, 2 parakeets.
(my brother has a hamster....)

Yes, a dog named Eboni. She is actually my son's dog, but since I'm dis-abled, she got attached to me. I call her Eb. She is a black terrier mix with white paws.
I fought my son for several year's on getting one, because I knew he wasn't ready for it. I finally gave in, and it was the best thing I have ever done. I have never been so attached to an animal, (and I've had many), and didn't think I could get this attached to one. She is really my buddy.

Yes, I have I Dog named Bubba, he is a yellow lab-mix.
I have a cat named Tiger (Very Originall Huh?)
I have one Holstien Cow named George
I have two Jersie cows named Henry and Mickey.
We have lots of stray cats, but there not mine.

Hannah my personal dog, a Shepsky nutcase that is too smart for my own good. Patch the family Parson's Jack R (a rescue that is about 5 of the most NEEDY dogs you'll ever meet rolled into one. Four cats...Shasta, orange DSH...12 Huge social butterfly, Sam 10, a black DSH w/slightly longer hair..a total reclusive fellow (originally feral) bonded to my partner's son. Sadie, 5, adopted from Stray Cat Blues a DSH tuxedo Queen...probably an exotic dancer in her last life (a bit on the dom side too.."I love you, I love you, SLAP!!..one of her favorite games to play! And Sipper the youngest at 2 1/2 another tuxedo Queen..loves to be petted but not held, a park rescue, loves to sip her water from the bathroom sink.

Emily, an 8 yr old Congo African Gray parrot (talks A LOT!) and Jazz a 10 or 12 year old Sun Conure...we are Jazz's 4 family and although we were told Jazz was a male, SHE laid her first egg earlier this past spring! Better diet and Emily was busy laying so that may have stimulated what ever Jazz had available to come on out. (like humans, Birds have all the eggs they will ever have from birth.)

Each one adds something wonderful to our lives, I personally can not be without a dog, but each of these beauties is FAMILY in their own unique way. They give love and they accept love...and that's the best family of all in many ways to me...it's the IDEAL to strive for.

Currently we have:

1 Corn snake
2 Degu's
4 Mice

In the past we have had fish, stick insects and rats. Next pet I would really like to get would be a lizard of some sort.

i used to have a 5 month old puppy named aiko, but she died on October 27. i am waiting for her mother to have puppies again do that i can adopt one.
but i do have a suckerfish named chitti!

To everyone who has a pet: You lucky ass!!!

I want a pet soo bad, but my parents won't let me have one. When I asked for a dog, mom said
dad doesn't like dogs, so I can't have one. And then I asked if I can have a goldfish, but then she said that I'm not responsible, and too lazy to take care of a pet, let alone myself. End of story.

Hopefully I will get one when I move into my own house. :D

I have,
2 female rats, Moka and pinky.
4 guinea pigs, Bubbles, Patch, Rosie and Dusty.
And one beta fish called Nemo.

i have two dachshunds. they are adorable. thats mollie!!! lol.

I just gave away my dog. She was a german shepard/doberman mix... Beautiful and loyal. I had to give her up cuz it wasn't fair to either of us because I didn't have the time to spend with her. I spend months at a time on the road and when I am home, I'm either rehearsing or sleeping... She was more than a lap dog and needed someone that could be more consistent.

Yes, two black cats, and I wonder why I have no luck!

I own 1 cat called Molly, who is an evil Norweigen Longhair

Right now, at my appartment, I have a young m-hair cat named Paleo. I used to have three other cats (silver tabby, tabby, and calico), but they're now living with my ma'. Earless, my 20 y-old precious recently died...he was the best. :)

In the past, I've have a few cats and dogs that are no longer with my family.
Trapper(common name for a dog),
Tigger(black lab, named from 'whiney-the-poo'),
Jenny(really gentle lab that died of cancer),
Lucky(not the happiest of cats)
Cidney(feline)
Twister and Tornado(sort-of roamed into our property a while back)
Spider(beautiful all-black long-haired kitten...died of crystals in his bladder)
Iggy(an iguana)

It's sad how many times we have to tollerate the loss of pets. I've always wondered if the cost is greater then the rewards.

I have 5 Cockatiels, and they are alot of fun but noisy. I love to take them out of the cage and one of them (Baby) flies into my computer room and walks on the keyboard. I think she is flirting but she clicks off before I catch her LOL

I have and presently own only 1 golden LABRADOR retriever dog. Although I've owned a cat as well in the past, I presently do not own a cat. Due to asthma issues, I had to stop owning one. Dogs didn't affect the breathing any...as long as the vacuum picked up the most of the dog hairs, it doesn't matter, but cats are another story.

Absolutely not. I have OCD and animals are dirty, I won't permit them in my home. My wife isn't happy about this but she'll learn to be happy without them or children.

a spirit cat. one I think.
