What pets do you have? What are their names and ages?

We have a fish, a cat, and two dogs. The cat is an orange Tabby and his name is Charley. He is almost 7 years old. Our oldest dog is a Golden Retriever and is 6 years old. Her name is Abby. Our other dog is a German Shepard/Chow/Lab mix and is 6 months old. Her name is Lexy.

Edited to add pics.

We have one dog. Her name is Keesha the Wonder Dog. She's about 8 years old. She's 1/2 black lab and 1/2 Alaskan malamute. She's a great dog and so gentle with the girls.

Here's our baby. We just adopted her from a rescue shelter last weekend. She's a 2-year old lynx point Siamese named Mollie. She has decided that DD's underwear drawer is a good hidy-hole. :laughtears She's a good girl. Her eyes are very blue and slightly crossed. She craves attention, and loves to rub faces with us. She sleeps curled around my DD's head, like a halo. :heart

I don't know how old Chewie the Man Cat is (maybe 6 years?), but our dogs are 2 and we have litter mates Ellie (girl) and Lickers (boy). Chewie is a fluffy gray cat with green eyes; Ellie and Lickers are medium sized mixes of half AKC golden retrievers, 1/4 black lab and 1/4 queensland heeler (why they're not huge ;) ). They're very VERY smart, and as well trained as I've had time to train them. They could be indoors but they still jump on the table and counter and eat food :(

Our baby is a Black Lab mix named Jasmine. We adopted her last Spring and I think sh'es about 2-3. She's definitely a mama's girl. She loves to sleep curled up behind my knees. :rolleyes And she will eat anything she can get ahold of. :yum

We have:

Tess, an Australian Cattle Dog or Blue Heeler, age approximately 6 years (we got her from the humane shelter).

Vincent, an orange tabby, 13 years. We got him a year after we got married as a "little brother" to our cat Sydney. Sydney was a beautiful, incredibly intelligent Russian Blue was euthanized in November. :cry :bheart He was our first "child", and I still miss him. I had to add him here, because he's still part of the family.

Angel, a hamster, who is really Zach's, age unknown but probably under a year.

I don't have good pics of all our pets but here are two. :)

This is Ziggy our boy bird. He is the funniest bird I have ever owned. He is also very friendly and will sit on our finger. He likes to look at us while we are talking or siging to him. We have a girly bird too, named Zoey, she is shy, but has a awesome personality. :)

This is our doggie Bubba. :) She was a wedding gift from dh.:) She is the sweetest doggie. Her and Jo are best buds. :) She has tooken to Jo and follows her around now. :)

We also have a mouse, name Walker, but I have not gotten any pic yet. :)

ETA: believer what a cute kitty. :) I would like to get a cat too, either a Callaco or Siamese. I had a Snowshoe Siamese for 7 years and she was the craziest cat, I sure miss though. We have been praying for the right time, to adopt. I think if we do get a new cat it will be for Samuel though because he has been praying earnestly for his future cat everynight. :heart :pray :heart

Just one doggie, a husky-german shepherd mix we got from a dog yard while living in Alaska.

Our ds claims he wants a fish (like Elmo) and a mouse. :eek Thankfully he gets his cat fix taken care of at g'ma's house. :smile

I am here to introduce you to the Moura ZOO!!!

Goldie has since this picture was taken gone on the walk on the rainbow pathway. Koki and Kola are Spiny Soft Shell Turtles. Alani is our 10 year old Tom Tabby. Kitty is our 9 3/4 yr old Queen, sister to Alani, she will be 10 on May 14. Then there is Noel, she is our little Calico Queen in training, she was my Christmas present this year. She was born on October 26, 2004. Then you come to our Rhode Island Red Laying Hens, Henni and Jenni, we figure they save us about $8 a month in eggs, we receive 2 fresh eggs each day. They are a gorgeous brown color and CHEMICAL FREE. We also have 7 Plecos (Algae Eaters) that the kids named all AL, but I have renamed the largest one JAWS as it seems to be a mall shark. Then there are 3 $.25 feeder goldfish that the turtles decided they didn't want to eat, and they are now about 6 inches long and now WAY TO BIG to eat. We also have a pluthra (if thats a word) of Guppies, a couple of which just had babies last week, so I am not sure on the count, probably close to 50 or 60 now. The turtles are helping that number dwindle but not fast enough we will have to find another enclosure for some of them soon. We also have one Snail, it is in the indoor tank with Randy, and seems to be perfectly happy with an oranda.

We have two dogs and a cockatiel and fish. Our dogs are 3 and 4 year old neutered males. One is a bulldog/chow mix and the other a doberman mix. Both are a riot. The cockatiel is new and we do not know if it is a male yet...I suspect it is a female. The fish are a community tank. I am passionate about animals and pets. We hope to have access or lease a horse, and have another fish tank and hopefully another bird (Electus). However, all this is keeping me plenty busy... :hearts

I am also a pet sitter, so I get to enjoy everybody else's animals too. :D

We have a Yorkshire Terrier, Dexter, who is 8. We also have a 30 gallon aquarium with freshwater fish & two crabs in it. We have another aquarium with 2 turtles (Tarzen & Jane) & a bunch of guppies. We were hoping the turtles would eat some of the guppies because after wanting to watch some babies be born we quickly became overrun with guppies, but our turtles appear to be quite picky and will only eat a guppy if it is dying. We have separated the boy & girl guppies into different tanks now as all the babies have gotten big enough to tell. Right before we moved we gave away our two outside cats & our two hamsters. My DH is ready to add some more pets to our house, but I'm in a wait and see phase right now. My youngest DD had just recently potty trained so my bathroom clean-up duties are the lightest they have been in years & I'm not quite ready to increase my load yet. :lol

We've got just two right now - a parakeet named Lucky and a bunny named Gohan. Lucky was found 7 years ago floating in the bay and we rescued her from the boat. So Lucky got her name because she was darned lucky she was found! Gohan was a pet sitting gone wrong. LOL!! A friend of my daughter asked us to take care of his dwarf bunny over the Christmas break then he didn't want him back afterwards. He's such a cute bunny and is so friendly - almost like a dog.

I also consider the horse I ride a pet of mine. He's actually my friend's horse but I am the only one who rides him so I'm there frequently and ride him each time I'm there. I'm training him in dressage and hope to show this summer. He was a pack horse in Colorado 3 years ago and now he's doing dressage! Pretty cool!! He's my baby (OK - big baby!) and he follows me around like my puppy!

'Fraid to say, we have one cat and she's a pain. We were fostering her from a rescue centre and we kind of got left with her because no one else wanted her. We are fond of her but she is a real NUISANCE :rolleyes scatching furniture, howling, you name it. But she and dd get along great...

We have a Mini-Rex bunny named Carl (after the rabbit in the Blockbuster commercials - he's just like that Carl!) and a Shiba Inu dog named Jake. So far, they're our "babies" and live pretty good lives here at our house! :lol

Some of you may remember that we lost our beagle mix dog Bill in December to prostate cancer, he was 9 years old. In two days we are going to be picking up a 7 week old cockapoo puppy 5 hours away. His name is BillyBob and I will post pictures when we bring him home.

And we have two sister kitties from same litter. Mary is all black and skinny and Martha is gray tabby and fat! They are going to be 9 years old in May.

Yay! I'm not the only one with lots of cats. All of our cats are rescues.

Snuggles - our 9 year old "Garfield" cat. Dh & I rescued him while we were dating.

Onyx - Also 9 years old rescued with Snuggles.

Smokey - Almost 3 years old - my dad found her at a construction site - Vet said she was about 2 days old. She is the smallest cat but now RUNS the house. She was very close to death when we got her, but while I was pregnant with the twins - we nursed her back to health. She stayed in my shirt pocket to stay warm. :) She truely thinks she is human - even sucks her paw! But, I could have rung her neck when I found her in the SINK!!!

Here is a picture of smokey a week or so after we got her.

Mama Kitty - Blue ribbon winning cat - rescued from a breeder that had over 70 cats in a one bedroom apartment!!! :eek She is a Maine Coon.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v426/heathernmartin/Animals/DSC00038.jpg

Ashes - found as a underfed abused kitten - stuck WAY up in a tree. Angela cried till I climbed the tree to get her. :( Now she is still tiny frame wise but quite the chunker.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v426/heathernmartin/Animals/DSC00039.jpg

Mama Kitty and Ashes were to be "fosters" until we found them a home... still no luck and after this long I don't know if it will happen. :doh
