View Full Version : non herp pets?
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

Damn i cant belive i forgot The dog's.... we have 2 skip's They have the most anoying bark you can imagine. I guess that's why they used them on barges old school boat alarms and the fact they Seek and destroy all rodents
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. :)
Oh here's pics of some of the critters....
