I don't think there's a "limit", as long as ALL of them get the proper care, love, and attention. :)

For me, 3. And hopefully within the next two weeks, I will be the proud mama of two kittens in addition to my beautiful pup, Samantha.

For me, right now, it's 2 dogs, 1 cat, and a fish. But, if the right bunny rabbit comes along....then it will be 2 dogs, 1 cat, 1 fish, and 1 bunny rabbit. Or anything else, for that matter ;)

I will have as many pets as I can afford. I will set a limit when I can no longer afford to care for them/buy them supplies. Later in life, I can def. see me having a ranch of critters. :D

I HAVE 4 DOGS 3 HUSKYS AND 1 JRT MIX SO THAT IS PLENTY FOR NOW! ALTHOUGH I WISH I COULD SAVE ALL THE PUPS IN THE WORLD..I WOULD LOVE TO LIVE ON A FARM ONE DAY AND TAKE CARE OF ALL THE STRAY ANIMALS I COULD FIT ON THE FARM:)

Right now, where I am living and with my time..I wouldn't be able to fit another dog. I would be able to fit a cat and maybe something small. Probably not much more then I have though. However I plan to have a big place with lots of space....as long as I have the time for it I'm sure I there wouldn't be much of a limit :X

Right now 4 cats is my limit but if I suddenly became rich and moved into a big house then probably 6-8 cats would be my limit.:)

I think 4 dogs and 1 or 2 cats would be perfect for me and a fish tank too:D

Right now I have alot of pets though:
1 blue lobster
2 fire bellied toads
about 20 fish
3 dogs.

I am in town, so I am at my maximum. Sometimes I feel like I went overboard, like right now when Sarah is giving me problems. I have 3 dogs, 2 cats, and 3 snakes.

U can never have too many fish :)

I want to get a 200 gallon tank at my fish store for $100.00-$200.00 & put Oscar in that & get her an albino boyfriend. I'm hoping that if I buy the tank, the filter, large rock decor & a top they will lower the price for the Albino sexed males. The Sexed fish can cost anywhere from $50-$100!! & thats cause they r full grown or almost full grown. I want an almost full grown, cause that means he'll be under a year old.

I want to get other cichlids friends for Jack & put Jack in the 55 gallon her & Oscar r sharing right now.

Mango will get his own 100 gallon tank with nothing in it except his castle, shell, a few marbels, his bird toys & thats it.. no real decor can go in his tank. he chews them ALL up.

I want to get a python. Rob wants to buil it a bedroom & make it look like a jungle or whatever that kind of python likes. I want to rescue one or more if they can get along & just let them be. Rob want it to be a LOCKED room with bolt lock & he wants to build a food shoot, so the snakes can get their food without us going in there. Rob just LOVES big snakes.

& I cannot get another common snapping turtle, as having more then 1 is against the law. But I do want a bull frog. Its super easy to feed this kind of frog, they'll eat anything that fits into their mouth, like MICE!!!

enough is always "one more":p
(I came to PT in summer 2003 with two kitties, and I only need one more)

In the house we are in now... two is enough. But once we move into a bigger house with more land. I would like to add one more dog and maybe a cat or two!

I think 3 or 4 dogs and a few cats would be great. Right now we only have one dog, but that's only because he's a handful in himself and a bundle of energy! He doesn't get along super well with other dogs either. If we do get another dog, it'll be an older shelter dog. :)

We have 4 dogs, 3 cats, and some fish and I think we are at our max.

Our house is fairly big, but Bailee is not nice and she doesn't like new animals invading her "turf" so we definitely won't be adding any more critters to the family any time soon.

We are having enough problems as it is trying to get her to get along with my new dog, Bandit (http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=60935).

I think we are at our dog limit for sure!

But are in the process of adding another cat soon.

That will probably be our limit then ;)

I don't think there's a limit to how many pets someone can have, just as long as they are all healthy.

For me my limit is two kitties, because that is what I can afford,although I would secretly love to have four, but that would be it tops.
But for everyone it is an individual thing, and as long as you can afford to take proper care of them, any amount is acceptable IMO.

That is so true around here.

Actually we are always "at our limit" at least that is what we keep telling ourselves until I get a call saying so-and-so needs a home, can you help.

Right now, my 3 dogs and 3 fish are "enough" in those categories. However, I think i'd like some sort of rodent.

Right now, I'm at my limit in terms of attention and money. After I graduate and have a steady source of income, I'd like to add at LEAST another dog, a couple ratties and possibly a cat.

I always say my limit is what we can handle and care for propertly, so far I'm at a 100 give or take some. I lose track with the fish, they keep having babies. :eek: Of course today, I was outside and heard a meow up in the oak tree, so who knows my limit might grow by 1. We will see if he stays around.

I would love to have 3 dogs and 2 cats when I get older and a few reptiles and other animals, haven't really decided on that part though. :) One of my agility instructors has 40 pets all together!! :eek: I thought that that was a lot, not saying thats bad or anything, just thought it was a lot because I don't know how a person could take care of them all!

Well, our limit was 2 dogs and 2 cats. Now, it seems to be 2 dogs and 3 cats and a betta. (The betta lives at school most of the time, though.):)
