I was just reading a couple of posts and I realized that a lot of people have had to change their signatures a few times because of additions to their families. I know some of you have lost furry ones to the RB but I was wondering how many out there have added a 'family member' since being a Pet Talker. When I first came I had two, Andy and Trevor, so I have added 2.

When I first "met" Logan she had Honey, Lilly and Mimi and my has her household grown since then! :) Aly also had only Shiloh and Reece. Noah's Mommy - well she only had Noah back then! :) What's been happening in your household?

Well, i joined way back when Spencer the Lion was here, and he posted a thread for me about helping me find someone to adopt my Ragdoll...this is when i "met" Sallyanne, we got talking and then she adopted my Gabe from me. So, for a few months after she had Gabe, i was "animal-less", although, i visited Pettalk to hear stories of how Gabe was adjusting to her home. Then I finally decided to adopt some pets...first came Dandy, then Guinness, and then Dale...so 3!

:( :( Some of us live with those who have the power of VETO, hence, as you know, there have been no additions to this household. Maybe it is a good thing to have the REALITY CHECKER in residence, because as the two I already have will tell you, they don't get sufficient attention as is, hence I doubt that they would want to divide up any remaining with another furry being. If they had a vote, it would be three to one in favor of the status quo. So despite all the cats I have fallen in love with here and the ever so many dogs who need a home, our little family will remain as is.

I've doubled the number of pets in my house with the addition of Eddie (I'm not counting Turnip as she'll be moving out when my niece goes.)

Do they have to be furry pets? If that's the case, then I've added none.

But since I came on to PT, I've lost one (Takara - Leopard gecko)

And added three.

(Inochi - Leopard Gecko)
(Prism - Rainbow Boa)
(Youkai - Guyana Redtail Boa)

Unfortunately due to our military life and moving all the time, we have had no additions to our household. But oh, how I want another doggy! Sadly, it looks like we are going to have to wait for a while. Perhaps when we return to America in 3 years :(

When I first arrived to Pettalk I had Murph and Maddie and I think I was considering adding a Bernese Mountain Dog to the family at that time. I shifted gears somewhere along the way though and ended up with a most extraordinary Collie, since joining PT. :)

I also lost my lil' soulmate dog, Maddie, right before Christmas this past year. :(

If my life ever gets back on an even keel, which it's looking like it might by the end of April, then I plan to look for a lil' female to add to the family. I miss all that cuddly affection I got from Maddie. So I dunno maybe another Collie or maybe a Golden or mix of one of'em.

You forgot to add zero to the poll! :)

No new pets here. I'd certainly like another dog though! :p

03-13-2004, 09:06 PM
I started out here as shais_mom, my greyhound Shaianne, was the only pet I had. She crossed to the Bridge. Before she crossed I got Kylie then after Shai left me, I got Keegan. And then I gained 2 fish. One has died.
I voted for 2 (Keegan and Kylie) b/c I forgot the fish! :o
not a good fin mom!!!

03-13-2004, 09:18 PM
Many fishies have come, we've had very good luck with fish! But we also got Izzie the male Parakeet! I know, girl name! When we got him, we were told that he was a girl! Later we found out that 'she' was a boy!:D

green_chameleon_girl
03-14-2004, 12:01 AM
we acctually added 2 but I clicked on 1 by mistake:o

When I first joined PT my family and I had Honey(dog), Taffy(dog), and Tweety(budgie) :)

since joining PT we have added:

first Dexter(budgie)
and Rex(chameleon):D

My fur family has tripled ... :o

Three times the fun! And vomit. And poo. ;) The funniest thing is my attitude towards multiple animals. People look all google-eyed at us when we say we have four cats and two dogs, but compared to other PTers, we are mere amateurs!

BitsyNaceyDog
03-14-2004, 08:36 AM
Since joining PT I've added 3 chinchillas and a ball python.


Izzie the male Parakeet! I know, girl name!
my iguana's name is Izzy and he is a boy. I always considered it a boy name.

03-14-2004, 09:21 AM
Three here.:) Emma, my little baby cakes.:p
Stormy, one of the hamsters.
And Puff, another one of the hamsters.:D



((My mom got a digital camera off of the internet and it should be here any day now so expect pics of my pets soon!:D This time I mean it.))

Only one.... THe stray dog that came to my house. Her name is Pandy. I hope she gets to stay.:)

carole
03-14-2004, 07:45 PM
Just the one my delightful little Lexie, but that had nothing to do with PT, I was going to get her anyhow, now If I had another kitty, that would have something to do with PT for certain.:) :D

luckies4me
03-14-2004, 09:28 PM
Well I started out with some rats, my chinchilla, the degus, the parakeets, gerbils, the guinea pigs and my Rock cavie, Mystic, Cheetah, Houdini, Lucy, Speedy, and Geicko and have since added:


Ewok- who everyone had the pleasure of watching him grow up here on PT :)
My three dwarf hammies
Countless rats
My two spiney mice Pip and Squeek
Flower, my girl hedgie
Goliath the puppy who found a new home
my love bird I rescued with the broken leg who went to Rainbow Bridge
Morgan

and I think that's it..........so we lost a lot of pets since then. :(

03-14-2004, 11:00 PM
We have added 3.
When I joined, Kito was my only baby, but at the time we were thinking of adopting another. Abbey came a few weeks later, Riley came 4 months after that, and Jada 5 months after him!!!!

That's it though--I don't think I could handle any more (unless a Shiba popped up at a local shelter, that is).

clara4457
03-15-2004, 01:11 AM
Just one - Penny Lane. Not counting a foster or two.

Emily - There was a Shiba in the San Diego Humane Society when I visited last week. Maybe I should bring him back for you! :D

I lurked here for several months before I added Scout. Once I saw she was going to work out well I joined. Does that count as one?

Vio&Juni
03-15-2004, 12:59 PM
Only one unfortunately - Pichu, though we didn't suspect we'll be able to. (Don't tell the landlady that we have two cats :) ).

I'm sure if I could afford it, I would adopt more cats and maybe a doggy too. I will someday.

Vermontcat
03-15-2004, 01:00 PM
When I started at Pet Talk, I had Samantha and T-bird.
In November we added two new furry ones, Chocolate and Brownie the gerbils.
So my pets have doubled since I started here!:)

Well, I have had cats for many, many years. My last of the geriatrics died last March and I added two sibling cats. Then I discovered PT. I have long wanted more animals and I can say that PT *pressure* had a big part in adopting my newest kitty, Dylan. :D but of course, I have wanted this orange love bug for a long time. They just helped me along:D I am not done yet either. The last of the skin kids left and now we have plenty of time and room for fur kids.

We have added 13 pets to our home since joining Pet talk. It ended up only working out for 6 of the 13 pets that my family and I rescued, adopted, bought, or were given.

Our neighbours have just taken over full time care of our elderly persian cat so i guess we have lost one as well. *about time as well*
