1 all black cat. The Love of my life.
Her name is Stinky. Stinky A. Cat is what is on her drivers liscense.
I rescues stinky years ago she was so tiny.. Small enough to fit inside a grapefruit. I found her cowering under a bush by the busy street I used to live on late at night. If our power had not gone out that night I would never have found Stinky.
Also I have two lepord frogs that fell in my big egress window so I turned that into a terrarium with sphagnum(sp?) moss some plants a big swimin hole made from a glass pie dish and aquarium gravel and a big clay saucer planted with catgrass. Looks great.

Just one dog but he is my best friend. His name is Oscar Mcgee Cash, AKC certified Miniature Schnauzer. Quite the personality, but he has really bad anxiety when we leave but that is our fault I am sure. He absolutely loves watching animal planet and goes especially crazy when there is a feline on the screen, be it a lion, tiger, cat, it doesnt matter, if the feline walks out of the view of the camera or out of the tv screen, he sometimes runs behind the tv to look for it.

Ours watches for dogs - on any channel. Ever since we got an HD television, he'll sit with one eye on the screen, and as soon as he sees a dog he goes nuts.

Yey! This is so refreshing! I feel I am not "the crazy cat lady" of the ECF forum anymore :thumbs:

I have four cats, very spoiled!! And the loves of my life! All rescue, three of them from a purebreed rescue, and one of them, Gracie, the oldest, is the latest addition to the family - she used to belong to my neighbor who suffers from Alzheimer and forgot she had a cat - Gracie was left outside to fend for herself at 12yrs old, declawed, and suffering from thyroid disease - she was close to dieing when I brought her in :(
She has had a complete turn around and is doing AMAZING :thumbs:
Here they are:
Bugsy, my 4 yr old all white Ragdoll - Ragdolls are not supposed to be white, I suspect that poor breeding trying to get this color resulted in all his health problems :( He is the my heart kitty though - he owns me and he knows it!

Lucky, My Seal Lynx Ragdoll - she is 3 :wub:

Hope, my Little Domestic Long Hair - she came from the same rescue, and is a semi-feral... She is the sweetest kitty ever, and the only lap kitty I have, as Long as I am sitting or laying down - otherwise she runs for cover :wub:

And finally Gracie, my sweet old lady, in all her glory - it took forever to get her to trust me - but now she is just chatty chatty lovey dovey! :laugh::wub:

I am not a pet owner I am more of an animal service provider. I have never had pets but have always been befriended by animals domestic, feral and wild. At the moment there are three female cats, a family of raccoons, a family of Opossums, 3 Falcons, and countless magpies that eat from the same bowl. Each one of them will deal with me in some fashion and none have ever run scared or have tried to attack. There are also rather common visits from deer, elk, the neighbors dogs goats and horses, bear and even a Great Blue Heron. There's one rule that all the animals seem to understand, and that's as long as there's food in the bowl everyone's safe and happy. So I gotta fill that bowl up pretty regular throughout the day or else I start to see all the critters eyeing me funny, which makes me feel like I'm in a twisted Dr. Doolittle Alfred Hitchcock movie.
