Hm... does this go in the chatboard? ;)

Well, once I raise enough money, I'm going to (hopefully) get myself a pet turtle! My parents don't want a rodent or anything furry, our cats would probably eat them... and my mom doesn't like things with too few or too many legs, so tarantulas, fish (D:!) and snakes aren't possible. Lizards are too big; I couldn't get a big enough cage (I'm talking more tuatara, iguana, chameleon size; not gecko. Cinnamon will eat them.) or enough sunlight.

So... I asked my mom, she said, yes, I could get a turtle if I get the money for the lighting, heating, etc. :D I have ten dollars so far, so I'm rather... far away, but I have the aquarium and tank!

We also will be getting a chicken, either a Houdan cock or an Appenzell pointed hood hen, for company for my chicken, Black Irish. She's a black cucco (I think it's spelled like that; it's black feathers with a grey/silver tip) Irish chicken (though the official breed name I do not know.) and her friend was a Saipan Jungle Fowl; she passed away earlier this year due to a raccoon.

Um... yes, well, I have other pets as well... but... I'll let other people post their pets beforehand before I tell you guys mine; I don't want this topic to seem pointless.

I have 6 cats and 8 little tropical fish. My cats are..

Milo is a brown tiger cat. Shes 16 years old but still plays and acts young. One of her front fangs broke a few years ago so she only has 3 fangs now.

Caeser is a siamese. He gets scared easy and really likes to chew  :o especially paper . But i've heared thats normal with siameses. Hes kinda fat but he has a really whiney meow and he also likes to meow really long.

Doolie is a big black and white cat, like caeser he has a meow that doesnt fit his size. He always is happy.

Tinkie is a semi small orange tiger cat. She has a really annoying meow and she meows about everything  8) . She either really likes me or ignores me.

Missy is a half siamese half tiger cat. I think she was probally a runt because shes so small. we found her and her brother Mister outside. There both missing part of their tails, but Missys has the shortest one. when she wiggles her tail it looks like when a dog wags there tail  ;) . Shes horribley afraid of the vacume cleaner. And I taught her how to jump from the ground into my arms.

Mister is Missys sister but hes about 2 1/2 the size of her. Hes kinda... like a rat. he doesnt like being held and only lets me pet him sometimes.

As for my fish I have 2 guppys, 2 mollys, 4 plattys/swordtails.  :)

TP Zelda

I have two kitties!!  :D

Spooky.
She doesn't cooperate very well. She get's spooked very easily, but sometimes she just ignores stuff. Here's what she looks like. She's a calico manx, she's 8 in human years and 56 in cat years. I don't know when she was born, I'll have to ask my dad.

Daniel.
He cooperates better than Spooky. He doesn't get spooked easily. Sometimes he does, but not very much.
Here's what he looks like. (Not me! He's the animal, lol.) I'll try to get a better pic. He's a tabby manx. You can't see his tabby very well, but if you could see him in real you can see it. He's 7 in human years and 49 in cat years. He was born in 2000. (That's why he's 7 in human years). I'll get a picture of him as a kitten up later.

Gah, everything I wrote died...

My cats

Left to Right, Top to Bottom:
Sabrina

Julius
Fluffy
Cinnamon
Fluffy
Rah

Fluffy is my cat; she loves me and no one else. She hides from everyone else and loves catnip. She likes to talk and enjoys sleeping in my room... but only on my blankets or my drawings. She also enjoys eating pictures and smudging charcoal and acrylics. <3 She's aggressive on catnip; she'll attack you. XD She enjoys ska/Spanish pop music, apparently.

Cinnamon hates me. She has a rip in one ear, sounds like a mouse, and enjoys eating my earphones as I play LA... or anything she finds. She likes asparagus, fish, etc. and hangs around the kitchen waiting for food or water. She drinks water a lot and enjoys rubbing her face in catnip. She sleeps a lot, too.

Rah... isn't the smartest one. He acts like a dog; lovable, protective, drools, and makes weird noises. He's madly in love with his blanket and his couch; if you sit in his spot, he stares at you angrily until you get up. He listens to classical rock.

Sabrina is a cranky old witch. She hates everyone except my dad, who she has declared her owner. She's scraped up on the edge of freshly painted cars a lot. She's pure black.

Julius is a fat, jolly orange cat. We thought he was the neighbour's cat, but he's too young and fat. XD So he's a stray... he loves us, though, and will let us pet him and stuff. He has a really long, pathetic meow, like every fat cat I know does.

Baby is my grandmother's cat... she's ancient, probably 17-18. She's white with a few black spots and is small and has  lots of broken teeth.

Clarence is also my grandmother's, and is also ancient; 18-19. He's a tabby, and used to be fat... until he starved himself until we gave him the food he likes. He's cross-eyed and deaf in one ear, but saved my Uncle Lloyd from a rattlesnake recently.

Karma is my dog; she's very fat. Very, very fat. She looks like a dingo/German shepherd mix... though she has pig-like skin and is white. She has a brown stripe down her back and a black tail with a white tip. Her ears are black. She looks airbrushed, and she's very smart and nice. For example, when our other chicken was killed, Karma found her murderer (a raccoon) and killed it, and gave it to us.

Black Irish is our chicken, she's... black and Irish. XD She's usually calm, but is spooked rather easily around people other than my uncle and me. She loves watermelon, and grew her own maize. XD

Manx cats are by nature, very easily spooked.

alical

We have a pedigree Jack Russel Terrier called Jack, original I know. I loves him and if I saw paw, he will shake your hand, it's so cute. We adopted him after he was found wandering in a city and has a docked tail. He sits by me and lets me cry into his fur and hug him when I am sad, and licks my face a lot.

Also I have a black cat called Sammy, who is scared of everything, but loves to kill poor small animals. He scratches when you stop stroking him, and when he is outside he stares through his cat flap so you open the door, even though he can easily go through the flap.

We have two dogs, two cats, a hamster, and three fish tanks.

Here is a picture of my dog Betsey and my cat Mew.  You can click it to make it bigger.

I have a rabbit called Choco Chip but I've always wanted a cat or a chinchilla or even a German Shepard/any kind of large dog.

I wanted a lizard, but um, I don't want to feed it crickets. So yeah.

Huskeys are awesome, but I couldn't torture it with the heat in the summer.

>.<
My parents are too pissy and two boring to have even one. The one we have, they're sick of, and they're looking for a home for it. I hate my family so much. As soon as I'm old enough, I'm leaving forever. 8)

My real Poison team in BW2. They all have perfect natures and EV's. I went the extra distance and bred the right IV's into them. Come at me bro.

MasterKeyX

I have one pet. It's a cat, named Tigger. He's like the nicest cat ever. He actually goes out of his way to get pet and to get attention, unlike most cats.
