I hope I'm not asking something that's been asked many times before but I'm curious: what non herp pets do you all have? I have three cats and one freshwater and one saltwater aquarium.

PIA:

Hi there not a bad questions other than boas and pythons and some friends monitors, I also keep and raise with my fiancee 30 plus pairs of parrots and 2 king dobermanns as well as a few horses for a friend while on vacation.

I just helped my father set up a 300 gal salt aquarium of lion fish and tangs, his favorites.

Cya...

Holy cow ladyhawke! Does someone pay you to take care of them!!! If I had the finances, I would like to have an array of pets as well.

<u>Bubbles</u> - dog: I technically have my mom's dog. She is very small and old. She is a "muppet dog". Hanging in there though!

<u>Tochtli/Rita - dog</u>: My dog who lives with my bf. There are pictures of her in my gallery if you want to see. She is a chihuahua-hound miracle mix.

<u>Dozer - rosy boa</u>: My 1st snake. He's so sweet and gorgeous!

<u>Anoushka - BP</u>: My 2nd snake. I got from a kid who did not want her anymore.

<u>Lizard</u>: I think I'm going to name him Hermes. I just got him last month.

OOH, and I really want a crow. But that's just too much for me right now, plus I don't know if you can domesticate those kindly.

:-D

You know how there are child tax credits, shouldn't there also be pet tax credits? :-) That would sure come in handy for some of us!

Well if you register a pet related business you may be able to write off dog food, cat food, snake food, etc. :)

I've had a bit of everything in the past, including raising several species of native birds. Currently the non-herp members of my family include:

Charlie, long-haired Jack Russell Terrier
Elliott, Charlie's insane nephew
Polly, English Setter

Little *******, WC cat

Slimer & Gozer, snails

Zoe, horse (last remaining as I have gotten out of the sport in recent years... she's for sale)

Toid & Spux, spiny mice breeders (I've decreased my spiny mice down to the original pair, but they do occassionally breed, I do not wish to keep the babies nor can I take it to seperate them either... if anyone wants the current baby, or any future offspring, they are free to a good home... thanks goes out to Siggy and Silke for opening their homes to my babies!)
1 rex-coated pet rat
(150 feeder rats and a bunch of mice as well)
