    And no I don't mean the man, the poster Animal!!!!!!!!!!!!! Although he is loveable..............

    I love animals, I have two dogs, a black lab named snoopy and a pug, named pug. Sometimes we call him pig, or dig, or mama's little baby.

    I bought two parakeets but gave them away the other day to the one sister who still speaks to me.

    In exchange for the two parakeets, I got two cousin kittens. The grandmother of the kittens was my cat that I gave this sister... I know hard to keep up with huh.

    One is black, male named Nemo#3 and flufffy striped female named Sassy.

    Tell me about your pets. Or what pets you would have if you could.

    I would love to have horses again........... they are the most beautiful creatures to me.

    I love cats too. I gave my birds away because they broke my heart. Everytime I would open the shades to the window right next to their cage they starte singing so pretty. I know they wanted to fly and be out with the other birds. I knew if I didnt give them away , I would have set them free. I don't know how they would do,if I did. I just cant stand to see an animal caged.

    I have good news for you thou.............. we have a spidermonkey right here in this site. In fact he is from my home state of Louisiana. I think he is toilet trained too. Very gentle and doesnt bite ,,,,i dont think anyway. I think you could let him roam the house and have access to a tv and the fridge and he would be very happy. LOL Should I tell him you are interested in obtaining him, he may make you a good deal on himself.

    Spidermonkey if you are reading this,,,,,,,,,,,,, she may pay very well........... something to think about...... LOL

    I LOVE ANIMALS!!!!!! I've had pets and I've been fascinated with creation my whole life. Over the years I have many animals....my family had horses, rabbits, dogs, cats, lizards, cockatoos, parakeets, hampsters and gerbils, and later on I had at one point ten ferrets......but now I've just got my two macaws.....and they are the love of my life. They love my unconditionally...unlike those in the borg.....welll....I won't go there right now.....

    I have a mini-hahn's macaw, and a HUMONGOUS Harlequin. Her cage is so big I can walk around inside it....heehee....but because she is sooooo big, and has inch long talons.... (her toes are as long as my fingers) I get red marks on my arm from holding her.....I have to tell people when they first meet me that I have parrots, so they don't think I'm a drug addict or mutilating myself or something.

    My fids (featherd kids) speak english like a young human child...and it's rather amusing....they even try to get their two cents in when I'm on the phone with someone.

    I was encouraged to get rid of my animals when I was a Witness.....I didn't know anyone at my KH who was into animals like me....anyone else relate to this?

    I have the cutiest little furry brown wolverine I call "Manson" that loves to roam the neighborhood at night. Every time we fix the fence he just eats it down again.

    Actually in all seriousness.....I have a female Boxer names "Sadie". She is my best bud. We always had a cat until ours got attacked by a dog.

    Losing your pet is often as tough as losing a family member for many. That is the bad thing.......they live such a short time (dogs that is)

    I would have to say I like animals, but am not an animal lover. We have a cat and a dog, that we got for the kids, many, many years ago. The kids are gone and the animals live on. The dog is 11 and the cat is 17, and seems VERY healthy. The cat had a 'sister' that we got the same day, but she died about 5 years ago. She was Princess' cat. None of the kids took their pets when they moved out.

    The dog is a husky/German shepherd mix, with one blue eye and one brown. Very lovable and sweet. Loves my Dad with a passion, and stays with him protectively, when they are out for a walk. The cat is a tortoise shell, small cat, very sweet, named Tiffany. Same name as one of my daughters in law, but we had the cat first.

    Princess' cat was an all black Siamese, a throw back in a litter of all silver point Siamese. she had the typical 'yowl' of a Siamese, and the triangle face. Name was Buckwheat. Gorgeous, but had a kidney disease.

    My husband calls himself an 'animal tolerator'. He doesn't hate them, but definitely doesn't have great affection for them either.

    Hey gumby....I here 'ya...after losing all my friends when I was Df'd, then losing my Grandparents in death and having to put the family dog I grew up with to sleep...all in the same year....I had had enough loss and couldn't bear to let myself love another animal just to lose it.....so I got my parrots...they can live long enough to outlive me....life long companions is what parrots can be.

    Hey Valis, your hedgehogs are cute :) not exactly a cuddly pets though eh?
