Guess What Kind Of Pet I and My Brothers Own?

[Pastachef]

Lol! Our ferret thinks our dogs backs are a bus. She is also a thief I can't believe the gigantic objects Farrah can manage to drag around and try to tuck away under our couch. These animals really are special. She loves to play with our dogs, but they're afraid of her. I worry, because if push came to shove I'm sure we would find her hanging from one of their ears by the teeth. The cat just totally avoids her.

I have two 5 month old dalmation puppies. Dax who has brown eyes and a solid black ear and Roo who has blue eyes and very few spots. They are sisters and OMG what a handful. I am still trying to house train them.... I had a crate that they are suppose to stay in at night but they spent so much time barking and whining that they now share my bed. This wouldn't be so bad except they like to sleep all sprawled out across the bed. I try to get them to sleep with my sons but in the end they end up with me. They are super affectionate and get along well with my children. Now if I could just get them their own bedroom......

I raise dust bunnies only, since my pet turtle, Lloyd, died when I was 8.

Dust bunnies? Now that IS a collection of unique pets. LOL!

[Kimmie]

Mez, I'm French. What are dust bunnies??

[Pastachef]

Dust bunnies are a joke, Kimmie. Sometimes balls of dust collect under heavy pieces of furniture that we don't clean under every day. They're nicknamed 'Dust Bunnies'. We all get them at one time or another.

[Isa]

I'll gladly let you hunt mine

Un « dust bunny » c'est une petite boule de poussière. On en trouve généralement sous les meubles.

I can see you love animals too, Chrose. I've had Eve, a female cat who was extremely verbal, Timothy, a large orange cat, Noel, a Cocker who was born on christmas eve and died of cancer, Wookie, a gorgeous cat that weighed 25 lbs and had a Cheshire cat smile, Thomas and Tammy, brother and sister kittens...and now, Snoopy and Suzanne, also brother and sister. Priscilla, a beautiful and very sassy cat, and Farrah, a ferret. I've been so lucky that most of my pets died of old age. Wookie was killed by a stray dog at age 13, and my bunny, Baby, jumped over our balconey in terror when a basketball landed on the balconey where he was sunning. Oh, and I've raised several birds who fell out of nests and lived in an artificial tree in my living room and rode around on my shoulder. It's hard to get a wild bird to leave you once you've raised and tamed it Oh, don't let me forget Orphan Annie. She was a very ugly gray cat who was abandoned by an owner who moved. She wandered into our house soaked from a rain storm on evening. I leaped to the top of the couch because I thought she was a rat. After a good drying and a few good meals she looked a lot better. I bought her a pink pearl collar and that cat actually preened as if she knew she was beautiful. Animals have a lot of emotion just like people Then there was the winter we had several 14 degree nights and my sister and I went around collecting all the strays in the neighborhood. By morning I didn't have a lamp left that was in one piece. LOL! Dogs and cats who have never met mean trouble

How could I forget Amanda and Jason? They were a pair of parakeets we had years ago. We has a cage that had a handle on top. I put it on our balconey so the birds could sing with the neighboring wild birds. One of my kids used the handle to try to pick up the cage and move it and the whole top came off. Amanda and Jason were found sitting on a neighbors trash can two blocks away. Our school crossing guard brought them home At work, I have a nest with five little blue eggs inside our air conditioner How cute is that? I'd personally love to have a big black crow for a pet, but not caged. I love crows.

[Pastachef]

Whoops! We HAD a cage. I hate typos. I must be a type A personality

[momoreg]

I think you're a type O. Get it?
