well i have 2 pure malamutes(pecco and raccoon), 1 wolf/malamute mix(sidon),two cats (bam-bam aka:bambie and bongo) but up until 7 months ago I had another malamute(nakota aka:nokie,kota cakes).but i have had alot of malamutes and until nakota died we were breeding them (raccoon and nakota) (pecco is their baby) but one time we had another female kiana (we had to put her down)and nakota and kiana had puppies at the same time but kiana couldn't feed her puppies so at one time nakota was feeding 24 puppies sSO I HAVE HAD 28 MALAMUTES AT A TIME but ya it depends on how much space and time and money you have.
