    So tell me what do you all keep? Can anyone beat my list?

    Can't beat your list but I do have:
    2 Fresh water fish tanks
    1 Marine fish tank
    1 Russian Tortoise
    1 Tortoiseshell Cat
    1 Japanese Spitz
    1 Chihuahua
    1 Rottweiler pup

    The Russian tortoise, thats the land one right? Saw a tiny baby one, the size of a Kinder Egg during the week in a pet shop and am hoping to get him. Can you tell me a bit about the needs of them? Are they easy to keep?

    Back on topic,
    I have 2 dalmatians,
    1 shih tzu terrier cross,
    A Russian Blue cross cat.

    The pets I've ever had:
    4 dalmatians
    1 shih tzu terrier cross
    1 sausage dog
    1 koi carp
    I'd say about 40+ gold fish
    3 budgies
    and frogs . . .lots of frogs :P

    Just have one spoilt cat. Got her from collon animal sanctuary when she was 5/6 weeks old and she's grown into the bossiest little cat. She decided that by pillow was her new bed, so now i get a tiny little corner to rest my weary head and she's spread out snoring every night.

    3 kitties - two of whom (brother and sister) we adopted through Boards.ie from another poster who had rescued them.
    The third arrived at our back door last September and has now signed a long-term lease with us!

    I'm so jealous FAYESY! That's an impressive list of animals. Are you on the new Irish Guinea Pig forum?
    http://irishguineapigs.findtalk.net/


    I have quite a lot.

    4 dogs
    6 cats (well one isn't around much cos an old lady gives him much nicer food! :D)
    5 rabbits (want another male, and have 2 litters on the way I hope)
    5 guinea pigs (and 2 babies at the moment but I have to sell those)

    I really want chinchillas next! And a couple of hens. When I have my own place . . .


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,812 ✭✭✭Vojera


    14 guinea pigs
    1 syrian hamster
    1 dwarf hamster

    And that's enough to keep me going!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,162 ✭✭✭Kiva.D


    I have only one, a rescue dog, a semi-paralyzed Cocker Spaniel who will eat :pac: anything.
    But the feral cats in the neighborhood have decided I am their mother. :rolleyes:
    And geckos, who find their way into my chest of drawers :eek: from outside.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,130 ✭✭✭Azureus


    I've got five goldfish at the moment...

    I had a beautiful beagle but had to give him away due to an illness in the family that meant they couldnt be around dogs :'( Heartbroken but had to be done.

    I really want a cat now I think-just gotta make sure the new landlords are ok with it and I'm sorted.
