off-topic: other animals?
So, what other animals do you all have, besides fish? We have 5 cats. Here's their link: http://members.cox.net/catzrus/ if you want to see them! Someday, I'ld like to own a spyhnx cat, but I doubt that'll ever happen  I told hubby on the way home from work this morning, and he said no.

We have a pet African Grey Parrot. A few years back we had approximately 300 parrots of different species, we bread them. I have to admit that I'm glad we don't have them anymore although sometimes I miss them... lol

Hi Freckles,
5 cats  we have 5 to we had six a stray came to the door in the middle of winter poor little bugger so we brought him in, but when the weather got better we shipped him off, to a good home.
(Silly)
(Tigger)
(abigale)
(Indy)
(Socks)
I have had my far share of dogs to first there was a shepard great dog and smart to (magnum) never left my sight
Then there was a Roty, great dog with a bad rap is all I can say on that one.(Zeus) never left my sight
Next up was a Jack russel (Jack) what a nut case he was, just a bundle of non stop freekin out, never stopped kind of a dog lotta fun but he bit one of the kids so he is gone, funny thing was I think the wife was more scared of him than the Roty.
Jack was all over the friggin map

I like the big Macaws, or even parrots are pretty. I like the birds who talk, too. Is it both macaw and parrots who talk?

I personally have no pets; not even one of the tiniest fish in the several tanks.  For the explanation, see: http://www.thereeftank.com/featuredmember/
Besides the Reef and watery stuff, here is the rest of FishGirl's menagerie. All these critters do take a lot of time and care, not to mention keeping up the aquariums, but each is special and much loved.
2 Leopard Geckoes - Crystal & Nicholas
3 Teddy Bear Hamsters - Hammy is the main guy
1 small brown mouse - Ralph Mouse, Jr.
1 Chinchilla - Gizmo
2 Chihuhuas - Maggie & Chi-Chi (Puppies this year????)
6 Cats - Ginger; Rebekah Tiger; Patches; and 3 others that are polydactyl.
Chocolate, the Lab/German Shorthair.
And, Rocky, the Racoon:

And then there's Benji, the "Purebred" Terrier Mix ReefDog, pictured below:
Not all of these live in the same place so it's not such a big job taking care of them.

Heres my best friend Payton. He's very smart and very gentle. Rottys get a undeserved bad rap. This guy wouldn't hurt a fly, unless you we're trying to steal
