Return Visit: How many pets do you have?

[mrspunkysmom]

It's been three years since this was last asked and there have been changes in peoples lives, so I thought, "why not?"

So if you have more pets than the poll numbers, just list your number in a post and also tell how many of what kind or breed!

[mrspunkysmom]

I have 5 kittehs, which is a growth of 150% since the last poll. Had 2, gained 3 which brings me to five.

Age 13, Emily, Calico-tortie - 2 months
Age 10, Mr. Spunky, Mackerel Tabby, Tuxie, 10 years
Age 8, Sam, Orange man, 8 years
Age 5, Bob, Orange Bobtail, 2 months
Age 2, Jane, Russian Blue mix?, 2 years
Age 1.5? Calla Lily, Dilute Calico rescued March of 2012 edited

[Karen]

None at the moment.

[Freedom]

I have the Crew of 15 you see in my siggy. Plus about a dozen tetras (fish)

[Grace]

We still have the 6 (cats) we had three years ago - no additions, no subtractions. Though we're all older, we're all doing well :)

[carole]

Sadly i am down to three kitties, having lost my dear Ash a year and a half ago, just have my three girls, Ellie-mae 12 yrs,her daughter Nikkita ???the baby of the househould we think and Lexie. 9 yrs

[pomtzu]

Well - I could answer 2 or 3 or 5. ;) Further explained.........

My 2 pups as seen in my sig:
Myndi is pushing 16
Sparky is pushing 13

Then there is orangeman Sherbie who is the outdoor stray who came to stay. He's been here almost 9 years and was probably 3 to 5 when he showed up.

Then since this is a multi-generation household, there are my son's twin gray kitties, Misty and Pepper, who are about 8.

[Asiel]

Only one at the present, waiting for an addition soon hopefullly.

[mrspunkysmom]

None at the moment.

And I almost put a zero in as a choice. :D

[sana]

In my current home, I only have One Down, and in our other house, there is Michelle and chickens :D So I guess I'll vote for one pet :)

[ToBeEvergreen]

(Didn't count the two fish, Doc and Apollo!)

We've got 9 pets!

3 cats (Mario age 11, Luigi age 2, and Toby age 15). Mario we think is maine coon, Luigi a domestic shorthair and Toby is a purebred ragamuffin.

3 turtles, red-eared sliders (Bing who is over 20 yo, Rose and Eddie Scissorhands are both young, maybe 5 yo)

[kittycats_delight]

Little Orphan Annie, 7-year-old Calico cat, around 13 pounds



OMG...7 really? It seems like yesterday you took her in and were bottle feeding her. She was such a teeny tiny baby and so fragile. So glad she made it through that rough start & that she found just the right person to help her through & give her the purrfect home.

We have 7 at present.

First the kitties:

Phoenix - black dsh about 8 yrs.
Bella - black dsh about 6 yrs.
Vega - Seal Point Balinese about 5 yrs.
Frost - bluey dsh about 5 yrs.
Pirate - Black & white dsh 5 months.
Opera - Black & white dsh 5 months.

While Pirate & Opera are still unofficial hubby has no intention of giving them up but I am still not willing to say I have failed fostering 101 yet again. They will both be getting alter in December.

Artica - black & white border collie about 5 yrs as well.

If I had to add hubby, bil & fil to the list then I would have 10. :p

In the last 3 years we have lost Vixen. She was just past her 6th birthday when he passed instantly from a blood clot.

[Roxyluvsme13]

Didn't know you'd lost Vixen :(. I'm so sorry.

[Casper]

Lets see, we've got....

Ethan and Sala the dogs.
Khaith, Martha, and Adelaide the cats.
Don, Indie, and Gir the birds.
Then there are the ten hermit crabs. Who all have names, but I don't think they are aware of it.

That makes 18, which sounds like way more than it actually feels like. :)
Its sad to hear of all the loses. My ferret, Queen Jillian, passed away earlier this year.

[moosmom]

I'm actually UP in my kitty pop. There's:

Bartie - 16
Buddy - 6
AustinB - 1 1/2
Isis - 1 1/2
Spikerdude - 10
Maya Linn - 13
Shortie Girl - 13
Lucy Lu - 4

I lost Mollie Rose in 2009 and my beloved MooShoo in 2010. :(

[lolli94]

I have 10... well only one is really mine but I love them all. My parents have 7 cats(all farm cats) and one beagle. My sister has a goat..., beautiful thing. I have one dog.. the love of my life. She is a one year old English Springer Spaniel named Lolli(DOTD April 3, 2011). She is SO naughty and so much fun!

[sallyandsnowx]

As of right now, one. A beautfiul, white 12 year old cat named Snow. :)

[moosmom]

Normally, anytime someone outside our inner PT circle asks me, "So, how many cats do you have NOW???" I simply ask WHY they need to know. If they insist on knowing how many, I'll either say "enough" or None of your business!!!

[Roxyluvsme13]

Okay, mine's changed to 2 dogs, 2 cats :D

Lily, Pomeranian, 6.
Brennan, American Pit Bull Terrier, 1-ish?
Tallulah, Calico, 2
Domino, Tuxie, 7 months
:)

[cloverfdx]

Yumi - 12 year old moggie.
Andy and Montanna - nearly 2 year old moggies.

[Alysser]

I only have one right now:
Mikey, 4 year old pug/beagle mix.

He has the energy of two dogs though. :D

[Freckles]

No pet, but thought you might like to see the new graph format. You may need to click on "view poll results"

Yes, Colby was Cricket but I decided to change it tColby and Finnegan was already named Finnegan and everyone thought he looked like a Finnegan. He also seemed to like it so I decided to keep it. Both new boys are so sweet and loving so I'm still glad that I adopted them.:)

I've recently moved to a smaller, but nicer, apartment and still have my four pets; three cats (MacGyver 14, Ming 9, and Kimba 2) and one bunny (Charmin, an 8-year-old mini-lop). I love all of them sooo much. It was difficult to find an apartment that let me have them all, but I refused to move without ALL of them!:love:

When I answered this, we had 6. Went down to 5 three weeks ago after Duffy died :(

[mrspunkysmom]

Well, since my last post, I am down to five. Hailey was sick when I started fostering her and I finally had to return her to Animal Care. Emily's hyperthyroidism finally took its toll and she passed recently.

[Roxyluvsme13]

Well, there are 3 dogs and 3 cats in this house, but I actually own 2 of the dogs and 2 of the cats... lol.

So, Brennan, Lilo, Hershey and Tallulah are mine. My mom owns Domino and Lily.

[mbsmum]

I am owned by 2 cats Ms.Kaveri and Ms.Shiela (black)

[krazyaboutkatz]

I now have only 8 cats not 13. I just couldn't handle 13 cats so I had to give 5 of them back to their foster mom. So far one has been adopted and I hope that the others will soon be too.

[Vette]
