    Hubby has been saying no more.

    He's out buying the hermits more toys. He's so hooked.

    lol I can't blame PT cause most animals I got are ones that I wanted so badly anyway. Althought PT did inspire me to get a bigger tank and tropical fish, and also a PT member made me want some frogs so now I have frogs lol. But I have 12 pets in total...that's alot when you live in a trailer park and live in a mini home

    So far I have staved off the PT trend, but not because I didn't feel the urge. An occasional visitor, Miss Rita, helps to remind me that two is really all I can handle.

    Kimmy, congrats on your new additions. And let me take this opportunity to say how neat it was to see pictures of Chipper's activity at Findley. It made me pleased all over again at the great recovery he made after *the big scare*.

    Yup, I also blame PT for the number of cats that I have now and also for failing Foster 101. I went from 2 cats to 6 and 2 of those were failed fosters.
    But I've put my foot down and haven't failed in the last 5 fosters.

    I also have to add that PT has taught me a lot too, which I am so grateful for.

    Also, what toys DOES a hermit crab play with??????

    I blame PT for my obsession with greyhound for over a year now. I actually can't blame them for anything else because I had Sassy and Star before PT. But I did rescue some fish and I did get some pet shrimp. No one else really convinced me to get either except my dad, so I can't blame you guys yet.

    When I joined PT I only had 3 cats and I now have 6. At least 2 of them were due to PT.

    I'd also like to know what kind of toys hermit crabs play with.

    *cassiesmom clenches teeth firmly* will... not... adopt... another... kitty...

    Seriously. When I adopted Cassie I agreed to keep her an an "only" because she was considered a special needs cat. She's 11 now and I think it might be very difficult to add another feline family member. But I do have the feline fur-nephew, Milo!

    Thanks Rachel. I love seeing him play and goof around too. We've had a few close calls, but no trips back to the ER vet thankfully.

    As for the hermits... I guess "toy" is a figurative term. Andy bought them a few different types of wood that they'll climb and pull apart. They are just now waking up and checking out the new "jungle gym".

    We have some netting we may add to it. Pretty much hermits love to climb.

    Hhahaa..Mr. Andy who didn't even want one in the first place!! That's too funny!

    I wish I could blame PT for all of my animals, but I had them all when I joined!!

    When I joined, I only had one and that was Chester.. I got Amy as a companion for Chester. My son Kevlin got Giz as a companion for Amy when he was keeping her while I worked, then I couldn't bare to seperate them as Giz was a stress reliever for Amy. In the meantime, Samantha had been at my front door all that time begging to be mine and her other owner would not agree until after I alread had the rest of them and since she had been on my doorstep begging for 2 years to live here... What could I do but admire her and let her in once the lady agreed?

    When I came here I only had one, I now have 4 but it was fate and I don't think PT had anything to do with it.

    LOL! Lucky for me he doesn't have one. I'm the one with the debt.

    Nope, he's spending his own hard earned money. He may resist getting them, but he loves them once they are home.
