Where did you get your pets?

[lvpets2002]

My Babies are all adopted = Callet from pet store reject & was charged more cause no one else wanted her due to she was so sick with ear mites & she was underfeed & near death; Half Pint was a stray from work; Buttons was adopted with a Glaucomaic Eye (that we treat) & is one eyed now; Autumn was a real bad abuse & beaten case & also has only one eye & she was so scared of humans it took 4 months of solid patience just to get her out from under the bed & but now she all ok; Yardleigh (3 ft in a yard) yes is three legged & can run faster than the four legged ones; A brand new baby from Walmart Parking lot is Splenda & was so starved & eyes all infected & is now going thru treatment & will be all ok && of course three dogs all were adopted also.. Oh did I mention I just get to live in the house so all the babies get pamperd & feed well..

Sebastian and Miko (ferrets) - from the ferret rescue society
Speedy (brazilian rainbow boa) - petstore (my husband's purchase)
Slytherin (mexican bairds rat snake) - repitle show (my step-son had to have his own snake).

All of mine came out of 'free' adds so I rescued them in a way. Nobody else would have taken them if we wouldn't have. They could have ended up on the streets or in a shelter.

I do plan on adopting/rescuing all of my animals I have in the future

All of mine are shelter babies and strays. My fosters are kill shelter rescues as well.

I said pet store, breeder, and other. I got my mice, snake, and guinea pig at a pet store. I got Annabelle, my pug, from a breeder. Other was my cats and my rabbit. My cats came from my horseback riding instructor a couple of years ago and my rabbit was from a fair in New Hampshire.

Star & Sherman both came from siberian breeders. My RB Rosie was adopted form a shelter. (I miss my Rosie-Posey girl! )

Every cat who has lived with me over the years has been rescued.

The horses I had to pay for as no one seems to ever give a horse away.

Corkscrew was originally adopted out of a shelter, then passed around to a few owners. The last owner no longer wanted him so I took him in.

Tibby came from a shelter.

Payson came from animal control.

The rats all came from a pet store.

Batman can from a shelter

[rizzy]

My dad picked her out from a breeder.

[k9krazee]

Cats were all rescues

Guinea pigs were the result of my friends not wanting their pigs anymore

Geico was given to me by my teacher

Dogs...

Shadow - My Aunt...not sure where she got her from, probably a byb

Micki and Mini - BYBs

Kyra - we became BYBs
What we did was horrible, I wish I would have found PT earlier or tried harder to convince my parents that breeding Min was a bad idea...but its been 13 months since Ky has been a part of our life now...I really wish we wouldn't have done it! I feel like an outsider here and a huge hypocrit, I am always telling people to spay and neuter their dogs but then my parents go ahead and breed our own dog

Jack - a shelter dog

[Desert Arabian]

Dudley- Humane Animal Welfare Society (H.A.W.S)
Sammy- side of the road
Peanut & Buster- Elmbrook Humane Society
Sophie, Eloise & Lucy- Hoffers pet store

Sam I got from a barn as a companion for Spunky. June 19, 2003 born mid April 2003

Bob (5 ? in 2011) and Emily (13 ? in 2011) (RB Oct 2013) were thrown out because the lady was tired of them but didn't want them killed at a shelter.

Callie (2 in fall 2012? ) is a runaway semi-feral, chased from her colony by a tomcat. Adopted my porch as her home (March 2012). Now in my bedroom.
