Now. rate your answers>>

If you picked mostly a's you are a good pet owner.

If you picked mostly b's you are a wonderful pet parent.

On the other hand, if you picked mostly c's you are a pet fanatic who sleeps on the floor, eats junk food and probably has to cut your own hair.

LOL..... this is all just for fun, hope you enjoyed.

THE FOUND CATS HAVE EXCELLENT PREMIUM CAT FOODS AND THIER AUNT JANICE BRINGS THEM TREATS ON MY SUBSIDIZED MEAL PROGRAMS.
THEY HAVE LOTS OF BEDS, AND IF IT EVERWARMS UPTHE NEW FURNITURE ON THE ENCLOSED PORCH.
FOR TOYS THEY HAVE AWA MICE CURLIES AND SOON MANY FOUND TOYS MADE BY OUR FRIEND CRITTERS OF HISTORIC VIRGINIA.
THEY NEVER GO OUT, AND I TRY TO GROOM THEM DAILY.
IF THEY SAY ITS ALL RIGHT!!
I WOULD CALL MYSELF I GUESS A CAT FANATIC ALTHOUGH I THINK A MORE APT NAME WOULD BE CAT GUARDIAN AS I TRY MY BEST TO WATCH OVER THEM ALL.

AS THEY WATCH OVER ME

FYI, by law, here in RI we are all GUARDIANS to pets!

[RedHedd]

In San Francisco we're called Pet Guardians

[momcat]

There are two types of people with pets:

a) People who own pets
b) People who are owned by their pets

I proudly admit to being type "b"!

[kb2yjx]

The Clan had a good chuckle when I was read the questions and the answers!! They know, they are loved, well cared for, well fed, have quite a few toys, and run the show!!! I have to agree with MOMCAT, we are " owned " by our cats!!! And love it!!!!!!!!!

Fun quiz!

I truly think of mine as my children (seeing as I don't have any human ones) and treat them accordingly.

When I call the vet's I say " This is T_C_ here, you know, Cleo's/Colette's mummy" (whichever I would be calling about)

I have been known to read to them in bed when I have my book and they would gather round

[lvpets2002]

Oh I am for sure a Parent.. My babies are treated like children..
