    Newbie here

    Well, I originally came here, because luckies4me bribed me with 50 bucks and a box of cookies. In reality, I actually registered here to vote for her hedgehog in a contest and decided to stick around.
    I'm currently in a very happy long-term relationship and residing in TN with 11 chinchillas, 1 hedgehog, 6 hamsters, and 2 dogs. In the past, I've had experience with sugar gliders, dormice, sto, degus, gerbils, and I know that I'm forgetting a few.
    That's all I really have to say.

    For those of you who don't know, STO means Short Tailed Opposums.

    And alas, welcome!

    Hi and welcome to Pet Talk!! I'm sure you will love it here.

    I now know what STO stands for - but not what it looks like.!! Any chance of you posting a picture? Otherwise I will have to go through life not knowing what an Opposums is.....and whilst your at it, I don't know what a Sugar Glider is either

    Can someone please educate me???

    Thanks Kay for my great sig & avatar!!!

    Welcome, RachnJam. It is nice to have you here. I live in SC. What part of Tennessee are you in? TN is my favorite state and I would live there if I could!!!

    Ally Cat's Mom, there was a Sugar Glider as Pet of the Day on 10/15. Isn't he cute??

    Welcome to Pet Talk!! You've love it here.

    You sure do have different animals. Any pictures to share??
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    A warm welcome to Pet Talk!
    I love the cute look of chinchillas.



    Do you think you could update your members profile,
    and fill in what animals you own and your interests.

    (I sometimes click on members profiles,
    when I wan't info. about the person I am posting to. etc.)


    Welcome again.

    Hi everyone. I have posted pictures in Pet General of Short Tailed Opposums. He pretty much has had everything I have had, besides rats............have you ever had rats before?

    If you search Pet General you will see some of the pics I posted about DEGUS, Short Tailed Opposums etc.

    But I am just waiting for him to post a pic of his hedgie girl, she is an albino and sooooooooo cute!
