[QUOTE="Cowrie, post:]Need mule pics?

When i get home i will post one especially for you on the other photo thread.

[QUOTE="Cowrie, post ]Part of me doesn't like these threads, they just feel like a who-has-the-most-animals competition ? maybe it's just me, but personally speaking I don't own them for that

Was that directed at me or am i being sensitive.? Sorry if is was interpreted like that, i was just being honest. I didn't even think like that, i am just curious what other people have., would love to know all your species you have, but would probably have to use google to tell me what they are! ;)[/QUOTE]

I think maybe instead of posting the number and species, it would be nice to know what the animals look like, something about their characters, personalities, etc.; perhaps names would be TMPI.
My cat is a 17yo tortoiseshell-and-white shorthair. We have been together for 17 years.

it wasn't directed at anyone, it was just how these sorts of threads always seem to go. I got a pm the other day calling me an animal hoarder anyway so I'm not listing mine. Easy enough to see what I keep if you go through the photo thread, or I can PM if people really want to know, and I can show setups or do a video tour of everyone to prove I'm not a hoarder too if really wanted/needed.

Gosh, what a horrible thing to say to someone! I hope it was reported, if it was through here.

I’ve a dog, 2 cats, and a rabbit, though by how much they cost these days we could be mistaken for running a zoo![/QUOTE]

I don't know much at all about rabbits. I was just reading the other night about one who lived with 3 cats and a dog.

I have Lari my horse, just turned 11. Future very uncertain at the moment, so causing me lots of sleepless nights and worry. Sticks his tongue out when you ask him too, also loves to drag a bale of shavings from outside his stable and pull at the plastic wrapping so the shavings are dispersed over the yard floor. Sticks his tongue out if you shout at him for kicking the stable door at feed times! Plays with anything he can get his mouth on including pulling things through the bars of his stable and playing with next doors pooper scooper.

Summer aged 9, our rescue beagle, we've owned her for 7 years. She's so lovely, affectionate, caring, and always brings me a present, sometimes a sock, or empty toilet roll when I walk through the door in the evening.

We sadly lost our aquariums (aquaria?) In the 11 day power cut last winter. Stingrays, mixed tropical and my absolute favourites, huge fancy goldies. I still can't bring myself to get any more at the moment.

Then we lost the cat last month too. So we have a beautiful rough collie, a gold axolotl (who is about 10 and used to be my class pet when I taught full time). 2 very elderly Gouldian finches, who are the last survivors of a group of 6. I dread there being just 1 soon as they're really hard to find but I don't want to leave one alone. 2 horses obviously. Plus 3 pet goats, and a whole bunch of non pet goats and sheep.

I only got into goats fairly recently and what an absolutely underrated animal they are. They don't smell (mine are wethers and does), and don't escape as easily as some would have you believe. The pet goats are a very small Toggenburg wether, originally premature and bottle raised and now my little boy's beloved pet. And two Anglo Nubian doe kids. The non pet goats are a mix of Toggenburgs, Alpines and Saanens.
Horses are relaxing but if you want something to make you laugh every day, get goats. Absolute legends, and this is coming from someone who used to quite dislike them.

I loved reading about your goats. I've always liked goats. Reading about yours reminded me of my friends' goats on their farm. Some Anglo-Nubians, and I'm not sure what the others are. They are real characters lol.

What is an axolotl?

Axolotl pics needed. My mum wants one ? (she wants sheep and goats too so it's probably a good thing she's not on HHO anymore and won't see your post!)
