I guess I'm pretty content with what I have - I never actually go out and get my pets; they just come to me. As much as I love animals, I think of all the work involved in caring for some of the larger ones and my advancing age, so I think when I retire I'll just foster kitties and/or get a "herd" of my own. (Now, if my dream pets also included acres of land and a farmhand to take care of them, well - I'd have cows, mules, jacks, goats........
